9:23 AM (Our Flat)
We decided that seeing as though it's Sunday Andy won't be going anywhere so we're going to go to his house after breakfast. Webb's had to duck down to the supermarket to get some pancake mix because we're out of it. Well, at least we're eating again, I suppose.
10:17 AM (Andy's House… again)
Diviney knocks on the door just like last night. Nobody answers the first time but the second time that she knocks Webb bangs on the window and we hear somebody shuffle sleepily towards the door. Andy opens the door and I have to shove my hand in my mouth to stop myself laughing. His hair is well…everywhere. It's the funniest thing that I've ever seen!
"What?" he's grumpy, I know.
"That's no way to answer the door." Diviney says.
Andy scoffs. "What?" He says again.
"We want to know," I pipe up. "Why did you ruin our stuff?"
He goes to slam the door in our face but Diviney catches it and kicks it back open. "We spent a lot of money on that," She says.
"So?" he said and yawned. "I don't care, that's what you get. Now I'm tired, go away."
"You are such a jerk," Diviney says and despite myself I agree with her.
"So," Webb says, "Cough up or we'll involve the police."
"Ooh yes," I say. "Wouldn't that be great for your image?"
A look of concern flickers across Andy's face but then it disappears. "Do that and I'll ruin more than you're stuff."
"Oh, so now you're threatening me." Says Diviney.
"Yeah," says Webb. "You're "such a gentlemen" remember."
"Shut up," This time he does slam the door.
Diviney groans frustrated and we decide to go and collect the evidence. The last thing I want is to involve the police but that's our only option now.
10:31 AM (Short Stack's Practice Spot)
When we arrive the door is unlocked, the padlock isn't there. Webb cautiously opens the door. The last thing we expected when we came to Budgewoi was for this to happen. Bradie is sitting in the corner putting strings on a brand new acoustic guitar and get this… its purple! Our stuff isn't here anymore; I don't know where it is. A brand new and totally awesome drum kit is set up in the other corner and our mic stands and amps are there too and a new bass guitar!
"Umm, hey."
Bradie looks up. "Hey," he says.
"What's all this?"
"Listen, it was Shaun, he just got angry and well, I'm sorry so-
"So, Andy didn't help?"
"What? No, of course not, Andy's not like that."
"Oh," Webb's thinking. "Hey, listen I know it's a lot to ask after you've given us so much but-
"Yeah?"
"Where does Shaun live?"
"I'd be happy to take you there if you'll help me put all of this in the back of your car."
"Sure,"
11:02 (Shaun's house)
We know that Shaun's home, Bradie says his car's out the back. We bang on the door again and Bradie yells at Shaun to open the door. Finally a blonde girl comes to the door. "Hey Bradie,"
"Hey Alison," he says.
"Shaun's home and JumpNow; they're out the back."
"Ha, okay."
We follow Alison out the back. I've never met JumpNow; he's a friend of Shaun, Andy and Bradie's. His real name in Shun Jennings.
"Hey dude," JumpNow says to Bradie. "Sup?"
"Nothing Much,"
"We're did you get the girls."
"They're friends,"
Shaun seems to notice us for the first time. "Yeah, right," he says, "They tried to steal our spot."
"And you destroyed our stuff!"
"Oh, please do we have to have this argument?"
"Listen, all I want is an apology. That's it!" Diviney was pissed.
"Fine," Shaun said. "I'm sorry for wrecking your equipment, I'll give you the mon-
"Bradie already replaced it."
"Well, how would you like to come on tour with us."
I looked at Diviney and Webb; this seemed too good to be true.
"Er- we'd love it!" said Webb.
"'K then," Shaun said. "We're starting it on September the 3rd, get packing."
"That's a day before my birthday!" Said Webb.
"Awesome, we'll buy you a present!" Bradie said.
"Yeah," said Andy, "What would you like."
Diviney and I just looked at Webb. We all knew what she wanted more than anything…
