Chapter one.

I like being alone, it's not that I don't have any friend or I'm afraid to leave my room, in fact I have one of the best friends you could ask for and I mostly try and spend as much time out of the house as possible, it's just that when I'm on my own I can do what I want whenever I want and I can think and day dream without offending anybody, but I suppose if a boy happened to come along I would at least give him a chance.

"Lucy, are you in there?"My step dad Kevin asked then stood quietly.

They always have to intrude when I'm about to engage in a deep thought about something important.

"LUCY" He really needs to learn to be more patent.

"God, no need to go psycho I'm right here "I said in an annoyed tone.

He opened the door just wide enough and tossed the phone at me, i made an attempt to catch it but it fell with a bang to the floor. I shot him one of my famous looks to kill but he had already left and closed the door.

I put the phone to my ear, "hello, Lucy speaking"

"Hey, it's Becca, were going shopping I'll be at you house in 5. Bye" She had hung up before I could ask her to explain.

Rebecca Mason or Becca as everyone calls her is my best friend. She's 17 and is the most creative person I know and well I suppose you could say that she's a little on the wild side.

I threw the phone at my pillow and walked over to my wardrobe, I put on a pair of hot pink skinny jeans and a white tank top, I pulled out a pair of sequinned heels and went to find my phone and wallet.

A few minutes later I heard a bang from outside and assumed Becca was here, she had recently got of her learners permit but is still adjusting to driving so mostly I offered to drive.

She was already leaning against my car when I got outside; she was wearing a canary yellow strapless dress and sky blue heels, a look that only Becca could pull off. Her hair was looking extra curly today.

"Hey Lucy, are you all ready to go" she asked with a smile on her face.

"Sure am, but May I ask why you so urgently need to go shopping" I asked with an equally sweet tone.

"Well, I brought two tickets to counting the stars music festival this morning, one for me and one for you of course" her smile now turning to a grin.

She truly was the best friend I could ever ask for, I have been saving for a ticket to Counting the stars music festival for about three month because one of my favourite artists Calvin Harris was performing, but I still hadn't got enough.

"OH MY GOD! Are you serious, I love you so much!" I ran towards her and hugged her for what felt like 10 minutes until she pulled away.

"so that's why I have to go shopping because Its this Saturday night and I don't have any spare time until then except for today to buy something to wear" she made her way around to the passenger's side of the car.

For a moment I worried because I hadn't brought enough money to buy a whole new outfit but then I remembered that I already had an outfit picked out to wear, but at least I could try to help Becca chose something even though I know she'll have no trouble, she always finds perfect outfits.

When we got there she lead me to one of her favourite stores it was a small boutique run by a guy who called himself Mitch, Becca loved shopping but she especially loved shopping here, so after an hour of looking around I knew she wouldn't mind If I quickly left to go to the music store a few shops away.

I wanted to buy the new album from Paramore, but after 10 minutes of looking I gave up and set off to find someone who worked there. About ten metres away a guy wearing black skinny jeans and a t-shirt with a cat on it was holding a pile of about 10 cds, so I assumed he either worked there or he would know where all the cds where anyway. I stood behind him "excuse me" he turned around and oddly had a giant smile on his face and trust me it wasn't just a smile it was the most largest smile I had ever seen.

"hello" he said then started to look around for something, "sorry I don't think I have a pen with me, so I can't sign anything for you unless you have one" I stared at him with a bewilder look on my face.

"Umm, that's alright I was just wondering if you could tell me what section Paramore was in?"

Now he was the one staring at me with an odd look on his face, he just stood there staring at me for another minute and then said "oh, it's over there in the punk/Emo section" I thanked him and walked in the direction he pointed me to.

After I had brought the CD I walked back to the boutique to find Becca, she was in the change room and Mitch told me to have a seat while I wait, that's why I liked Mitch he didn't feel the need to make petty conversation with me and I was grateful for that especially because all I could think about was how much my life sucked, I had just met the cutest guy I have ever seen in my life and he was a complete crazy person, I mean why on earth would I want some strange guy who may or may not have worked in a music shop to sign something for me, god.

When Becca finally found something we had lunch then went home, I waved goodbye to her as she swerved into the other lane then back into her own and made her way back home.

I fished around in my pocket looking for my key but I must have forgot it when I was leaving, I walked around to the side of the house and push my window up and across and climbed through onto my bed, I walked out to the kitchen and looked for something to have for dinner but there was nothing and I wasn't really hungry because I had a late lunch. I slowly walked into the living room and watched reruns of The City which I had already seen and when they started to become a blur I had a shower and put on my pyjama pants and a orange top, the clock next to my bed said it was 7.30 pm that meant my mum, Kevin and my little brother Patrick would be home from whatever adventure they went on today in about half an hour.

I turned off my light and laid in my bed, the sun hadn't fully set and the street light from outside made my room glow slightly but that wasn't what was bugging me, every time I closed my eyes all I saw was that crazy guy from the music shop, I saw his mesmerizing smile, his gorgeous eyes and the way his hair was so different from anything I had ever seen in my whole life.

I sat up in straight, what the hell was I thinking, obviously some of that guys crazy rubbed off on me because I have never ever like a guy unless I actually know him but I didn't even know this guy's name and my brain was trying to make me think I was in love with him.

I slid out of bed and pulled on a pair of green short and a grey hoodie, I climbed back out the window and mad my way towards the shops around the corner from my house, it was nearly dark as I walked into Coles and went to the chocolate Isle. As I was deciding between a violet crumble and a crisp bar a pair of bright purple and green sneakers caught my eye, I looked up to see who they belonged to and dropped both bars of chocolate.

The guy from the music shop was walking past with another blonde guy with similar scruffy hair, I quickly picked up my chocolate and followed them to the register, the blonde one left but the guy from the music store stood in line waiting.

I looked in his basket there was three tubs of nutella, a frozen pizza and a bag of skittles, if I said hi I wonder if he would recognize me, I was probly the first girl that has talked to him in ages considering he is crazy.

"Hey" I said shyly "I saw you at the music store today"

He turned to face me and smiled "hey, yer I remember you, you were the girl that didn't know me"

Completely crazy, why the hell would I know who he was. "Umm, I suppose" I said with disappointment seeping through my voice. "I see you like nutella" I said with a little bit of sarcasm.

"haha, actually that's my step brothers he can't get enough of it" he awkwardly pursed his lip in a smile then turned back around.
