Chapter 9
Chloe's POV
I sat on the desk in my room, attempting to finish my homework, but failing miserably. I just couldn't concentrate. I tried to relax my mind by going downstairs. I grabbed a couple of cups of strawberry yogurt along with a spoon then planted myself in front of the TV. After watching TV for an hour, I went back upstairs to give my homework another go.
I sat at my desk again and realized I still wasn't in the right state of mind. I logged on to my computer and went on facebook. I scrolled down and noticed Drew was online, so I clicked the button and began to type.
Me: Hey :)
Drew: Hi. What's up?
Me: Attempting to do homework but I just can't
concentrate. HELP!
Drew: Lol. Try meditating. Just sit with your
legs crossed, get away from any noise or
distractions, and clear your mind of all thoughts.
Me: Dang. U could have been the buddha in
another life. Lol.
Drew: Ha-ha :|
Me: JK And r u sure this will work?
Drew: Positive. I always do it. Now I suggest you get back to work. I wouldn't want to be the cause of your parents angst and fury.
Me: *Rolls eyes* Guess ur right. Thnx for the
advice. I'll let u know if it helps. Ttyl
Drew: Good luck! :)
I closed my laptop and sat on the wooden floor in my room. I did just as Drew said. I sat on the floor with my legs crossed and tried to clear my mind. Surprisingly, it was pretty easy. Once I cleared my mind, I stayed in that sitting position for a while. Finally, I opened my eyes. I felt so relieved and replenished. I immediately started my homework for the third time, but this time I actually got something done.
I finished my work after a couple of hours then decided to go back downstairs. I was about to open the door to my room when something caught my eye. I noticed my calendar hanging behind the door, marked with red on a certain date, April 4th. How could I be so forgetful? Austin's 17th birthday was coming up soon. I guess I had been so caught up in school and popularity that I had completely forgotten. I immediately opened my laptop again and searched for party ideas.
I knew practically the whole school would have to be invited and also that it had to be outrageous. After I chose decorations and must-haves, I realized someone would have to perform. And what better people to do that than Emblem3!
The next day, while the five of us were chilling after school at Yogurtland (LOL), I asked the guys if they would be willing to perform at Austin's party. "Sure," they all agreed happily.
"Okay. Great." I facepalmed two minutes later. "Ugh! I completely forgot about the venue. Where should the party be at?"
Wes thought for a minute while stuffing his spoon in his mouth then said, "We could do it at my place. I mean it's obviously big enough. Plus, it's also easier for us," he pointed to the three of them. "since all of our instruments and equipment are already there."
"No…" I said. "I wouldn't want to cause you any trouble or anything."
"Seriously, it's fine," he said. I stared at him for a long time, contemplating, before agreeing. Finally, everything was set.
A/n: I wonder if anything is going to happen at the party...What do ya'll think? Leave a comment and follow/favorite plz :)
