Hey! I know I haven't updated in forever. And it's not just this story it's my others too. But, I have the next chapters planned and I just haven't written them yet. Thank you so much for bearing with me.:)
I sighed in frustration as I erased yet another lyric off the page.
We were a month into the school year, and I had learned three very important things about this school.
One, not every single kid at this school was a snobby rich kid. For example, my best friends.
Trish my roomate, Kira, Cassidy, and Narnie the girls next door. Lily, a dancer who lived down the hall, and reluctantly, the very infamous prodigy, Austin Moon and his best friend Dez.
Austin had introduced me to Dez about two weeks into the school year. He was absolutely one of the weirdest people I've met, but he was also the nicest guy I knew.
I met Lily the first week when Austin took me out, as friends, for lunch that weekend. She knew Kira from the dance program and it didn't take long for our whole group to become friends.
And, Austin. The wacky blonde who had, to be honest, forced me to be friends with him. And really, it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
Besides his bitchy girlfriend Brooke who hated my guts.
That's the second thing, some kids at this school, are really snobby rich kids. And Brooke was the monarch of all of them.
She would never admit it, but she was absolutely convinced that I was trying to steal Austin away from her. Which was the dumbest realization in all human history.
Though blondie had changed since he became friends with me, he had not changed as much as I would have liked.
And the third thing is that this school goes all out for everything. For example, the big Fall Lights Festival.
They had asked Austin and I to perform. And after helping Austin right his song, I had to write my own.
And it wasn't going well.
I sat layed back against the top of my bed, my songbook and a keyboard leaning on my propped up knees.
I hummed the music I had finished piecing together, trying to find lyrics for the chorus. I wrote down a line of lyrics in my curly writing before I dropped the pencil in my hand groaning.
Trish looked up from a mannequin. She laughed at me. "Having trouble?" She asked a pin in her hand.
I popped an eye open to look at her. "Yup. I just can't get the chorus." I said agitated. I looked at the mannequin in front of her. "What are you doing?" I said.
She glanced down. "Homework." She said nonchalantly. I rolled my eyes.
"Trish, Fall Lights is in two days and I still haven't finished the song yet." I thought for a second. "And how are you supposed to finish the clothes in two days?" I said concerned.
She scoffed. "You underestimate me Alls. I can have it done in a day, I don't know what the songs about though." She said sticking the pin into the jacket on the figures shoulders.
"I know." I said. A knock sounded at the door. So I got up to open it tightening the hoodie I wore over my pajamas.
I pulled the door open revealing all to familiar faces. "Hey!" Kira said with a smile.
"Hi." I said gruffily before turning around walking back to my bed.
"Well someones in a mood." Said Lily stepping in after the others.
"She can't finish her song." Trish said hugging Cassidy.
Narnie plopped down on my bed next to me. "You can't finish a song? You must really be in a mood."
"I know." I said to her dejectedly.
"Maybe you need a best friend break?" Cassidy said producing a large bag I had missed when they walked in.
"What's that?" I said curiously.
"The goddess kit for an awesome sleepover." She said setting it down on the table next to the TV.
"Freshly ordered pizza, cinnabuns, chocolate and all other comfort candy. Nails, confess or stress board, and of course the amazing Katherine Heigel in 'Life as We Know It'." She said pulling each item out one by one.
"Thanks Cass." I said hugging her from the side. "Hey I picked out the movie!" Lily exclaimed.
"And I ordered the pizza, and paid for it." Kira said plopping on the floor, her loud pajamas clashing with the carpet.
"My hero." I said grabbing a box of pizza as Cassidy handed them out. I passed Narnie hers a thought suddenly coming to me.
"Superhero!" I jumped grabbing my book.
"Aw, Ally. That's really sweet of you." Kira said biting into a veggie pizza slice.
"No, no, not you guys. My song." I said scribbling out a chorus. A perfect one at that.
"Your songs about superheroes?" Trish said walking over to me with half a meat lover's special slice in her hand.
She looked at the pages of my book and smiled as an idea twinkled in her eyes.
"Ally, I have the perfect outfit for this!" She exclaimed. Cassidy looked over my shoulder as well, hawiian pizza dangling from her hand.
"Ally it's amazing! Please let me do your makeup?" She pleaded taking a bite out of the pizza.
I looked at her quizzacly. "Cass, your on a scholarship as a make up artist. Your doing my make up whether you wanted to or not." I told her laughing.
I looked at Kira and Lily. "Will you back me up?" I asked. They nodded their heads enthusiastically.
I looked at Narnie, "You and Dez are filming the performances right?" She nodded. "Who else would be doing it?" She asked biting into her sausage pizza.
"All I need to do is ask Austin to help me record it tomorrow and everything will be set." I said smiling and jumping.
"I told you, sleepovers are the best medicine in the world." Lily said as she bit into a cheese pizza slice making me laugh before we enjoyed the rest of the night.
Sorry, it's short. I didn't think it was this short when I finished it. The next one will be long I promise. Don't forget to leave a review!
Stay lovely;)
