; me owns nothing.
I hate the fact that it's true…
WOWPWOWPWOWPWOWPWOWP
Tomorrow, my family and I were having dinner with the Gray's. I was pretty pumped. You know, like since they are kinda famous and all. And them boys… dayum! I was currently lying on my bed flipping through a magazine, twirling a lock of hair in one of my fingers and occasionally throwing tic-tac's at Mitchie. If you wanted to know, Mitchie's my best friend. I've known her since kindergarten. And since then, we've been inseparable. We know all each others deepest and darkest secrets… except… she doesn't know I'm a wizard. Dad doesn't let us tell anybody, not sure why though. I hadn't yet told her about moving next door to Connect Three. I'm not sure if she even knew who they were.
I finished the magazine I was reading and felt a rush of boredness run through me. I grabbed a hand full of tic-tac's and ditched them towards Mitchie's head. "OW!" She squealed as she turned around and threw a few of the ones that were on the ground back at me. We giggled and shoved a few in our mouths. She slapped a magazine closed, threw it on the floor and sighed, leaning her back and head against my bed. "I'm so bored." She exclaimed.
"Me to, sweetie, me to. Let's find something to do." I said. "Ooh! Ooh! That rhymed!" I squealed happily.
"Hun that rhyme was a crime." Mitchie said, with a snap. I glared at her.
"That was lame, I'm ashamed." I said, rolling my eyes. She giggled. "Let's go to the beach." I suggested.
"Uhm... Alex... It's kinda cold." She laughed. I shot her a look.
"So what? I love the beach. Winter or Summer. Let's go." I said standing up and running over to my walk-in closet, grabbing my black grey sweater, which had black hearts on it. I threw Demi a pink hoodie, knowing as a fact she didn't bring a jumper, and would end up wanting one. She gladly took it and slipped it on, as did I with mine. I grabbed my phone and shoved it into the back pocket of my skinny jeans. "Kay, let's go." I said. She smiled and we stood up and skipped out my door. We held hands as we happily skipped across the road, looking like complete idiots. The beach was only across the road, so we didn't have to walk far. Once we were down there, we rolled up the bottoms of our skinny jeans and ran through the freezing cold water. We were laughing and squealing when I heard something… Like music. Mitchie continued to squeal and jump around, I shoved my index finger up my lip. "Shh!" I shushed her. She stopped jumping. She obviously heard it to because she smiled and started dancing. I rolled my eyes and grabbed her wrist, quietly pulling her in the direction of the music. We walked over to the rocks, and peered over to the other side. I saw a boy, a guitar and a note book.
'But I'll be there
forever
You will see that it's better
All our hopes and our
dreams will come true
I will not disappoint you
I'll be right
there for you 'til the end
The end of time
Please be mine'
– He sung
It was Nate. I smiled as he wrote down what he just sung into his notebook. Mitchie and I exchanged a look.
"Wow!" She said really loudly. I slapped her shoulder. I could see Nate was about to turn around, and I didn't want to embarrass him so I ducked down behind the rocks pulling Mitchie down with me. I slapped her again, then put my finger up to my lip again and signalled her to be quiet. She nodded.
"Hello?" I heard his voice say. "Who's there?" I heard footsteps. Mitchie and I huddled up, and I winced. "Alex?" I heard the voice say. Crap. I opened my eyes and looked over at him innocently.
"Hello!" I said innocently. He smiled. I quickly stood up, pulling Mitchie up too. I dusted the sand off my jeans.
"So…" He smirked. "You girls were spying on me, huh?" I looked over to Mitchie. She pointed at me.
"She was." I slapped her arm again. "OW! Please, Alex, if you're going to slap me, slap this arm," she pointed to her other arm. "cause your going to leave permanent bruises if you keep this up!" I stood there amazed, while Nate laughed.
"Oh shut up. Anyways, Nate this is Mitchie. Mitchie this is Nate." I said introducing my friend to my new neighbour. They shook hands and smiled.
"Hey... aren't you from that band… uhm…" She asked trying to remember what band it was. I was surprised she had heard of them before.
"Connect three, Yeah." He answered for her smiling. I smiled at how my best friend and new friend got along. We stood there silently for a moment. I shoved my hands in my pockets and swayed back and forth for a second.
"Anyways," I finally said. "That song… it was really nice." I said to Nate. I noticed he blushed a little, probably just out of embarrassment.
"Thanks..." He said with a smile, and looked to the ground. Mitchie nudged me and giggled. He looked up. "Well I should probably get going now anyways..." He picked up his stuff and started to walk away. At first, I thought he was mad that we heard him singing. But that was until he turned back around and smiled. "So, I'll you see tomorrow, Alex?" He asked. I looked up and grinned.
"Definitely." I said happily. He smiled, nodded and turned back around. I watched as he walked off, but was interrupted by Mitchie slapping my shoulder.
"Oh my gosh." She said, and then started squealing and jumping up and down. I sighed and sat down on the sand. She stopped and made a little 'wah?' noise, then sat down next to me. "Alex? What's wrong? You okay?" She asked. She shook my shoulder trying to get me to talk. My mind was on… other things. I pulled my knees up to my chest and wrapped my arms around them, resting my chin softly on the tip of my knees. "Hello? Earth to Alex?" She said waving her hand in front of my face.
"He's too perfect." I finally said. Even though I was looking directly a head, out into the blue ocean and not at her, I could see her giving me a confused look. I wasn't quite sure what I meant when I said, 'He's too perfect' but I said it. So I must have felt it.
"What? Who? Nate?" She asked. That's when I realized how many questions my good ol' matey Mitchie asks. And that's why I loved her. Because I knew she didn't ask to get into people's business. She asks, because she cares. I finally looked up to her, meeting her face to face.
"Yes. Nate. He's too perfect. I don't want to fall for him Mitch." I sighed. I mumbled the last part. Her face lite up.
"You would be such a great couple!"
"Not true." I pointed out.
She rolled her eyes. "Don't be silly!" She giggled. "He likes you! Duh! You could totally tell, the way he smiled at you, and flirted with you!" She said. I sighed and leaned back.
"Maybe..."

I was currently in my room, picking an outfit for tonight. Tonight we were heading over to the Gray's and having dinner with them… This would be interesting. I searched frantically through my wardrobe but was un-successful. I looked at the pile of clothes on the floor that I had thrown out of my closet. Then I remember something. A spell. I ran over to my 'Beginners Spell Book' and flipped through it. I remember reading about it the other night, when I was bored. "Aha!" I said to myself. I grabbed the book, lifting it off its stand and placed it on my bed, as I sat down on the bed. I took a deep breath as I was about to do the spell.
"Give me an outfit, that's awesome and cool. Give me an outfit that will make the boys drool." I winced and waited for the magic to happen. I opened my eyes and looked down at my clothes. Still the same, jeans and hoodie. I sighed. Suddenly, I noticed something out of the corner of my eye. A mannequin. "YES!" I squealed and ran over. It was wearing a super cool outfit! It wore dark blue denim skinnies (almost black), with black knee-high boots, with a really skinny heel. But it was okay, cause I can walk in heels. It had a simple, but nice black tank top and a long grey cardigan which ended just at my thighs. I squealed. It was perfect. And to top it all of it had a grey and black pin-striped trilby hat. It was like, the perfect outfit. And I had accessories to match it too! I quickly grabbed it off the mannequin, which disappeared after I had all the clothes from it. I looked at the time… We were leaving in half an hour. That gave me plenty of time. I quickly threw off the clothes I was currently wearing and shoved the new clothes on. Once I was finished and the boots were zipped up, I glanced at my clock again, 10 minutes to go. I squealed and ran into the bathroom, and shoved on my usual, very light make up. Which consisted off, light eye liner and mascara and clear sine lip-gloss. Simple as that. Most of the time, I don't even wear eye-liner. Only for special occasions! But still. Once I was done, the time was 5 minutes. I quickly brushed my teeth, fluffed my hair and made sure I looked okay. Which I did. I grabbed my black over-sized leather handbag and shoved a few importants in, and skipped downstairs, surprisingly not falling.
"Wassup, wassup family?" I said brightly as I skipped downstairs. Max and Justin were sitting on the couch, obviously already ready. Dad was sitting on the couch too, watching the football game, and mom was over at the kitchen counter putting her ear-rings in.
"Oh good, your ready." She said, finally getting her ear-rings properly through. "Are you all ready?" She asked us. Dad, Justin and Max all waved there arm in the air, obviously not interested and more interested in the game on TV. I rolled my eyes at the man and… boys in my family. So immature. My mom did the same, and walked over grabbing the remote and turned off the TV. "Come on. Were leaving now. Get going." She said. They trio groaned and stood up walking over to the door. I folded my arms lightly across my chest and laughed.
"Snaps for mommy." I said as I clicked three times. She smiled and grabbed her bag.
"Now, let's go." She said. I nodded and walked out the front door, following the three males out of the house. I heard mom close and lock the door, then run to catch up with us. We walked down our path at the front of our house, and then crossed over on to the Gray's lawn and up to their front door. My dad leaned over and rang the doorbell, as we stood their waiting for an answer. Sure enough, the door opened to reveal Paul and Mary Gray standing there to greet us. They smiled as they shook hands with us all, and then invited us in. My parents complimented them on how nice there house was looking, and then they complimented my parents on how nice their kids were looking. They invited us to sit at the table, and then Mary made some comment about the boys, and then went up stairs to look for them. I heard mumbles, and then the boys appeared. All looking super cute. We stood up to greet them, my parents and brothers shaking their hands, since I already knew them I just did a small wave. We all sat down and said our prayers then dug into the delicious meal Mary had prepared. Oh, and if your wondering why I call them by their first names, it's because they asked me too.
"So how you been, Alex?" Shane asked me. He was sitting basically straight across from me, so it was natural to talk to me.
"I've been really, really good thanks. How about you?" I asked. He sighed.
"Good thanks. I heard you and your friend saw Nate at the beach." He smirked. I saw Nate look over, then quickly look away.
I giggled. "Yeah."
"So, what'd you think?" He asked. I gave him a confused look.
"Think of what?"
"The song? He said you heard him singing…" He exclaimed. I put down my fork.
"Ooh! I get cha. Yeah." I looked over to Nate. "It was amazing. Definitely going to be a hit." I smiled shyly at him. He what looked liked blushed then looked away.
"We are so excited about our album!" Jason said as he did hand motions while holding his fork. A piece of broccoli flew off backwards and hit the wall, then fell to the ground. I, along with Shane and Nate burst out laughing. Jason didn't get it and ignored it. "It's coming out in a few weeks!" He pointed out, and then shoved his fork in his mouth. He made a face and removed it. "Wow, the broccoli tastes weird today. Must be that new sauce." He mumbled. I giggled.
I turned to Nate. "In only a matter of weeks you boys will be Rockstars! You excited?" He grinned and nodded. "That's so awesome! I can't believe I know celebrities!" They all laughed.. Well, Jason started more like 'head banging' then nodding. But still. I giggled.
"Anyways, Love the outfit Alex!" Shane said, in a girl voice. His brothers snapped their heads towards him and they shook their heads, like they were discussed. I burst out laughing, which made the other boys laugh. My brothers stared at me, and then continued to eat their dinner. They had been surprising really quiet this whole time. Not like them. Meh.
"Thank you Shane." I said in between laughs. The rest of the dinner went on like this, laughing and chatting. Our parents were getting on really well, and so were us kids.
WOWPWOWPWOWPWOWPWOWP
Jason was seriously going physco. We were playing Guitar Hero, and I saw an extremely competitive side to him. Our parents were still at the dinner table, chatting away like maniacs, and we kids couldn't stand it. So we went and started to play guitar hero. Jason was really happy, since my brother, Justin sucked so badly at guitar hero, and was currently losing by hundreds of points. Shane had taken Max upstairs to play on the drums. We could slightly hear it from downstairs, since it was a sound proof room, so you could only here a tad. I watched as Jason fell down onto his knees and started playing guitar like crazy. "Wow." Was all I got out. Nate laughed. He and I were currently sitting on the couch, being amazed at how good Jason was… and how crap Justin was. But I always knew that. "I never knew Jason played guitar this well." I said. Nate nodded his head, his eyes still glued to the TV, like myself, waiting to see who wins.
"Yeah, he taught me how to play."
"Wow, really?" I asked.
"Mmhm." He mumbled.
"Snaps for Jason." I said, still staring at the TV as I snapped three times. And yes, I do, do that a lot. I've watched Legally Blonde to many times. He laughed. I watched as the song almost ended, and how Justin was beat miserably. But still demanded a re-match. I shook my head and laughed. "Dude, you're going to lose."
"No I won't. Not this time." He fought back.
"Ha. I bet you 50 bucks that you'll lose." I challenged. He raise and eyebrow and walked over, to shake my hand.
"Deal."
"Fine." I said. "Loser…" I muttered under my breath, making Nate laugh. I watched as Jason and Justin began to battle it out again, and watched as Jason's score went higher, and Justin's went lower. I laughed at this, then leaned back into the couch and watched in happiness.
"YES I WON!!" Jason cheered. My head shot up and I looked at the scores. Indeed, Jason had one. I clapped for Jason and stood up and went over to Justin, pushing his head.
"HAH! Start paying up loser!"
