Julie's POV
I play the video once again, not believing my eyes. Margo has a band, a very successful band because of their song On My Way. Luke walks in and hears the music. "Hmm. that sounds good."He mutters and walks over to my laptop. "Wow, they're good. I wonder if Margo wrote that song."Luke says
"So do I."I answer, pausing the video. "They pitched this song for the new movie The Mitchels vs The Machines."I add. Luke nods and walks over to Alex and her older brother.
"Oh speaking of Margo, she's coming over in a few because mom and dad are furious with her at the moment."Willie says. I nod and the garage door opens. There she is, red hoodie, tour shirt for a band called 'Shooting Star', ripped jeans, red headphones, and dirty white sneakers. "Hey lil sis."
"'Hey lil sis,'"She mocks. "I'm a year younger than you so shut it."Margo hisses. Reggie falls off the couch when he sees Sarah trailing behind Katie.
"Be nice, mom said you can't mock us anymore."Sarah mutters.
"'Mom said you can't mock us anymore,' I don't care, plus she isn't here."Margo slumps against the wall.
"Ugh why does she have to be my twin?"Sarah groans, slumping against the opposite wall. I accidentally press play on the song and Margo squints at me.
"So you like my band's music?"She asks. I nod and Luke strums a sour note.
"Reg, did you seriously tune my guitar the wrong way? I asked you one simple thing and you totally set my guitar's notes off."Luke grumbles and he pulls out his phone.
Sarah and Margo are arguing about who the better twin is. "Mom is happy that she has at least one girl, that's why the two of you are always arguing. You are a stubborn, untalented, boyish freak."Sarah yells. Willie slaps her and Alex holds Margo back.
Margo throws her headphones up over her ears so she doesn't have to listen to Willie's lecture.
"Sarah, right now Margo is the better twin. She didn't insult you in a mean way. That hurt her. I saw the pain in her eyes when you called her untalented."She lays her head on Lukes shoulder, tears rolling down her cheeks. He whispers something in Margo's ear that makes her calm down a little. Sarah gags at the clicheness that the two are giving off.
Two weeks pass and we already have a group chat, this makes us closer then you'd expect phones too. It's the twins' birthday and they're still not talking to each other.
Katie's Phone/Pov/

Julie 8:59: It's open
srry it took so long to reply
I had to rinse the plates
Meh 9:01: That okay
I open the door and enter. Sarah and I are still on horrible terms so she didn't come with me. Luke pops out from behind the wall. I jump a little and hit him in the arm.
"Not Fuuuuuuuuuuuunnnnnnnnnnnnnyyyyyyyyyyyyy!"I mutter.
"Hah it is, I made you jump."Luke whispers in my ear. A shiver runs down my back when I hug him. "Happy birthday Margo."Luke says.
"Thanks, where are Alex and Reg?"I ask him as we walk down the hall.
"They are arguing about Harry Potter at the moment."Luke murmmers. He stops in the middle of the hallway and I do to. "Umm so, I tried to think of something to get you last week, but I couldn't think of anything."
"That's okay, your enough for me."I whisper.
"No, I thought of something for you."He pulls a small box from his pocket and I open it. In the box is a silver necklace with a compass as the charm. On the edge is a small crystal shaped gem. It has three main colors, minty green, forest green, and black. "I know it's not..."I cut him off.
"It's perfect Luke. Thanks."I say and hug him again. I can tell he is hesitant before he hugs me back. Luke helps put it on me. I let my hair back down and we finish walking over to Julie.
Reggie and Alex finally stoped arguing when Flynn and Willie get here. We all decided to throw me a birthday party in the studio. The party starts at 4:30 pm so we have had a few hours to set up. Ray invited my grandparents and my bandmates + their parents over. He also invited Luke's, Reggie's, Alex's, and Flynn's parents. I've knowen them forever, they've known me forever too. It's currently 4:00 and Ray's trying to convince me to let my parents and sister to come. "No! She called me Stubburn, untalented, and a freak."I say for the hundreth time. "And plus, my parents hate me right now."My phone bings and I check it.

Luke Patterson has accpted the private chat request
Meh 4:13: Luke it's not nothing
Luke 4:13: IK
but I don't want them to
become all "ohhh" or "ahhh"
Meh 4:14: -_-
We can take that risk
We're not official so
they won't do that as much
Luke 4:15: Okay, fine we'll take the risk of them doing that
see ya in 15
M.B & L.P's private chat has ended due to one person leaving
I smirk and put my phone away. Luke agreed to take the risk. Everyone arrives at 4:20 so they aren't late, but not to early. Mom and Dad show up anyway because of my grandparents persuasion.
Sunset Curve is playing my party as their official birthday gift to me. Half an hour in, Sarah and her friends come walking in. Wilson, Marson, Lancaster, and Fergasan all stand in front of me. "Oh look at this petty little party, looks pretty last minute to me."Wilson laughs. Sarah sneers at me for throwing a b-day party without her.
"Security!"Julie shouts over the speackers we set up. Willie and Alex go over to her.
"Take the candy dropped on floor away!"Flynn says and they nod. They both look like security guards so it makes me giggle at the thought of them protecting my party. Luke jumps up behind me once their out of the studio.
"May I take the birthday girl for a dance?"He asks in a british accent. I roll my eyes mentally, but nod phisically. We do the dance that we just learned in class last month. Luke spins me and I giggle lightly. I can see dad glaring at Luke and Mom awwing at us. Luke leans down so our faces are only just cenimeters apart. "You're the best thing that has ever happened to me."He whispers. I'm about to close the space between us until the name of my band is called to stage. I see a small hint of pain in Luke's eyes when I pull away from him.
"Okay so Misread Minds will be performing their new song, 'On My Way'"Julie anonnces. We climb onto stage and everyone cheers. (I do not acctually own the song Alex Lahey dose, along with the makers of TMVSTM)
"Thanks for the intro Jules. Anyway hope ya'll enjoy this song."I say into the mic. They play the music and I strum my guitar chords before singing.
"I've been waking up in the city for so long
Keep my growing bangs 'cause I'm startin' to move on
Take a little time to admire the view
There's nothin' I would change about the time I spend with you
On my way
On my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
Lookin' back around like I need your permission
Know it's always hard when you know what you're missin'
Walk a little further to the unfamiliar
Rippin' out the pages, it won't kill ya
On my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
On my way
On my way to somewhere
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car
Over and overheal my broken heart
I'm gonna reach new heights with every fall
I'm gonna be all talk but do it all
On my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
On my way
On my way to somewhere
I'm in double time when you're all in slow motion
Burnin' down the house, livin' for the commotion
Where do I begin with whatever I want?
See me runnin' out the door
I'm on my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
On my way
On my way to somewhere
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car
Over and overheal my broken heart
I'm gonna reach new heights with every fall
I'm gonna be all talk but do it all
On my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
On my way
On my way to somewhere
Seeing what's in front of me, I got double vision
Take a deep breath, make a decision
If memories were put up in hotel rooms
And you would take the bed I said I'd come and stay with you
On my way
On my way
On my way
On my way
On my way to somewhere
On my way
On my way to somewhere
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car
Over and overheal my broken heart
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car
Over and overheal my broken heart
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car (on my way, on my way)
Over and overheal my broken heart (on my way to somewhere)
I'm gonna cross state lines in my first car (on my way, on my way)
Over and overheal my broken heart" Everyone cheers and I see Sarah with tears on her cheeks through the window. I jump off the stage after setting my guitar on the stand. I meet Luke by the table, he has a huge grin on his face.
"So who did you write that about?"He asks.
"Myself when I got acepted to MUNY."I say, reffering to just a few months before when the letter had come in the mail.
"So you'll be joining us there then?"Reggie asks. I nod.
"Can I have the birthday girl's dance again?"Luke asks when Stiches plays on the speackers. I nod and take his hand again. He's wearing a leather jacket and ripped jeans. I'm wearing a jean jacket and a pair of black skinny jeans. He spins me like last time and leans in after he pulls me back in. "This seems like the perfect night, hopefully nothing will ruin it."Luke says. My eyes flutter shut and I stand on my tippytoes before he closes the gap between us. The noises black out and the one thing in my mind right now is the feel of his lips on mine.
When we pull apart, I feel like it's to soon. Luke smiles at me and I hear Alex gasp. Out of the corner of my eye, I see dad being held back by Reggie and Willie. "Sorry, but we can't let you ruin Mrs. Bryce's birthday party Tyler. You and Amy are going to have to leave."Reggie says. I laugh, but drag Luke as far away from my dad as possible. Julie and Flynn are giving me the 'I told you so' look. They've buggged me for the past three months, nonstop, about me and Luke. I kept saying it's nothing, but they're qycos. Luke leans into me again, closing the space between us again. I stand on my tiptoes again. Our lips move in sync before Julie taps my shoulder. I pull away from him and he looks slightly hurt. My grandmother is squealing lightly and I see Emily with tears in her eyes.
"Happy birthday chérie"Grandma says, pulling me into a hug once Luke walks off with his mom. "I'm so proud of you, prusuing your dreams."Grandma adds. "Your voice is amazing." Grandpa is watching Luke as he talks to Reggie.
"Who was the boy?"He asks.
"Luke Patterson, one of my closet friends."I answer, being not completly honest. Grandpa nods and walks off to talk to dad.
The next few months of summer come and go. We praticaly did nothing all summer, except discuse our new school and write songs. My band was sad to let me go, but they did. Now the song is a Sunset Curve original because they didn't write it. Me and Luke are stuck in between friends and a bf, gf relationship. We leave in one day for school so we have to say bye to our familys tonight.

GTG BYE
Margo Bryce Has Left The GroupChat
I let out a sigh and slip my phone into my pocket. Dad is pacing back and forth between the gap in the kitchen. Mom is putting her hair back into a bun and helping me finish packing. I pack my two main instruments, a pearly white electric guitar, and a redish acoustric guitar. Mom and dad got me the electric, while for my 11th birthday a few years back, the guys gave me the acoustric.
Dad drives me to the airport around lunch. I see Margo, Alex, Reggie, Julie, and Flynn all waiting for me. I give dad a quick hug before running up to them. "Finally, the flight takes off in half an hour and I'm starving."Alex mutters.
"Same, oh there's starbucks."Margo says, running off.
"Bro, don't leave us."Reggie calls after her, walking after her. We follow them over to the table she's sitting at. A guy from our school catches my attention, hugh, I thought we where the only one's leaving that school I think to myself before sitting next to Margo.
When we get on the plane, we find that we sit in different sections. Luckily we all have someone else from the group with them. Me and Katie, Reggie and Flynn, and Alex and Julie. Margo takes out her earbuds from the backpack she brought. Plugging them in, she just gets rid of the noise around us. "Let me listen two!"I whisper to her. She hands me the left earbud and I put in my ear. She's listening to photograph by Ed Sheran. We both hum along, and she puts her head on my shoulder.
"Loving can hurt, loving can hurt sometimes
But it's the only thing that I know
When it gets hard, you know it can get hard sometimes
It is the only thing makes us feel alive
We keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts are never broken
And time's forever frozen, still
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home
Loving can heal, loving can mend your soul
And it's the only thing that I know, know
I swear it will get easier
Remember that with every piece of ya
Hmm, and it's the only thing we take with us when we die"
The lyrics make me smile as the song goes on farther. Margo is still leaning on my shoulder, humming when the plain actually starts to move forward. I put my arm around her and she snuggles in a little more.
"Hmm, we keep this love in a photograph
We made these memories for ourselves
Where our eyes are never closing
Hearts were never broken
And time's forever frozen, still
So you can keep me
Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans
Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet
You won't ever be alone
And if you hurt me
That's okay, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages, you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Wait for me to come home
Oh, you can fit me
Inside the necklace you got when you were sixteen
Next to your heartbeat where I should be
Keep it deep within your soul
And if you hurt me
Well, that's okay, baby, only words bleed
Inside these pages, you just hold me
And I won't ever let you go
When I'm away, I will remember how you kissed me
Under the lamppost back on Sixth street
Hearing you whisper through the phone
'Wait for me to come home'"
The old lady across the ailse is smiling at us by the time the song ends. "I think you two make a cute couple."She says.
"Oh we're not dating, we're just close friends."I say when Katie looks at me with a bit of a smile.
"Yeah sorry."Margo says.
"Wait I think I recognize you two..."The lady says. "Margo Bryce and Luke Patterson, I'm your guys's fifth grade teacher."Margo gasps.
"Mrs. Mitchell, oh my god. I haven't seen you in years."Margo says.
"Yup, I see you two are still a little immature, Judging by your shirts."Mrs. Mitchell says.
"Hey, this is a limited edition shirt, for our band."I say. "But yeah the monster shirt is pretty ridicoulis."
"Jerk."Margo says, slipping out of my grip. I shrug and lean backwards in my seat. Jame's Arthurs song Say You Won't let go.
Margo drifted off after twenty more songs and now I'm texting Reggie and Alex in the group chat.

The plain is 'Bout to land
Multiple particapents have left the group chat.
It's not a total lie, the plain is about to touch down but we didn't have to leave the chat room. Mrs. Mitchell is still a lil groggy from her 6 hour nap. Margo is still glaring at me, and muttering under her breath, I smile at her. I know she can't resit smirking back but she doesn't look up at me. We meet up with the other four and look for the school's bus. It has a huge sign on the side that says MUNY (Musical University of New York) and there it is. Many students are walking over to it and getting on. I drag my friends over there and we get on. We show our passes and sit in the very back of the bus. Margo and Flynn are both trying to drift off again but can't. Julie is texting her dad, and Alex is engrossed in his phone. There is the student from school again. His name is Nick Miller and is a jock who loves music. guess t makes sense he's coming I think. I see a light tint of pink on Julie's face when she notices Nick. Elbowing Margo, I point at the two. She nods with a huge smirk plasterd on her face. Returning the smirk I invit Nick to a chat and then Julie.

Here's the rest of it
I guess that therapist I found for you, she really helped
Now you can be a better man for your brand new girl
Well, good for you, you look happy and healthy
Not me, if you ever cared to ask
Good for you, you're doin' great out there without me
Baby, God, I wish that I could do that
I've lost my mind
I've spent the night cryin' on the floor in my bathroom
Just over the fact that I really don't get it
But I guess good for you
Well, good for you, I guess you're gettin' everything you want
You bought a new car and your career's really takin' off
It's like we never even happened
Baby, what the fuck is up with that? (Huh)
And good for you, it's like you never even met me
Remember when you swore to God
I was the only person who ever got you?
Well, screw that and screw you
You will never have to hurt the way you know that I do
Well, good for you, you look happy and healthy
Not me, if you ever cared to ask
Good for you, you're doin' great out there without me
Baby, God, I wish that I could do that
I've lost my mind
I've spent the night cryin' on the floor in my bathroom
Just over the fact that I really don't get it
But I guess good for you
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Maybe I'm too emotional
But your apathy's like a wound in salt
Maybe I'm too emotional
Or maybe you never cared at all
Maybe I'm too emotional
Your apathy is like a wound in salt
Maybe I'm too emotional
Or maybe you never cared at all
Well, good for you, you look happy and healthy
Not me, if you ever cared to ask
Good for you, you're doin' great out there without me
Baby, like a damn sociopath
I've lost my mind
I've spent the night cryin' on the floor in my bathroom
Just over the fact that I really don't get it
But I guess good for you
Well, good for you, I guess you moved on really easily

Meh
M-m-m-m-m-my more than meets the eye
To tell the truth you be a liar
I saw her out on Friday night, misunderstood
She's balling for a guy
That's cigarette needs a light
Pluck up the courage and Invite her nowhere good
'Cause I need this more than a one night stand
Need that honey Won't you hold my hand
Times like this think of true romance
But she not ready for that
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She just my type
She's my device
I don't think twice
Oh I don't know why she's just what I like
But I, I, I love it
I, I, I love it
Love the way she plays with my head
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She's just my type
This girl's still on repeat
Plays in my mind, won't let me sleep
She's not the one who's in my sheets
'Cause she's no good
She defies all of my dreams
And expectations she won't meet
I'll pack my bags and try to leave
I wish I could
'Cause I need this more than just a one night stand
Need that honey when she hold my hand
Times like this, they call for true romance
But she's not ready for that
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She's just my type
She's bad advice
I don't think twice
Oh I don't know why
She's what I like
But I, I, I love it
I, I, I love it
Love the way she plays with my head
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She's just my type
More than meets the eye to tell the truth would be a lie
I saw her out again last night, misunderstood
And I'll never be that guy
That cigarette still needs a light
And when I take her back to mine it's nothing good
'Cause I need this more than just a one night stand
Need that honey when she hold my hand
Times like this they call for true romance
But she's not ready for that
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She's just my type
She's bad advice
I don't think twice
Oh I don't know why
She's what I like
But I, I, I love it
I, I, I love it
Love the way she plays with my head
She lets me down
Then gets me high
Oh I don't know why
She's just my type
Oh she's just my type
Yeah she's got just what I like
And she's just my type
Oh yeah she's just my type
Katie
Rlly Luke
I'm out
Bye sucka
Margo has left the group chat.
I turn my phone off and snicker at her reaction
The bus stops in front of the biggest music school in the country. We all follow everyone else off the bus and Nick + Julie are walking in together. "Hello kids, welcome to MUNY. Hope you all enjoy your five years here."The principle says. "Ohh is that sunset curve? I love your music kids."She says. Margo pulls her hood over her head and hides behind me. I mentally shake my head and we all follow her into the school. "Okay so my oldest students will show you around and pass out you sheets." Principle Kelly says as hundreds of older students walk around calling names and handng papers out.
"Patterson, Luke"A girl calls and hands me my paper. "Bryce, Margo." She calls again.
Margo mutters and reluctantly takes the paper. I roll my eyes and look at my paper

We all have the same dorm so it's fine. The girl who handed us our papers leads us to the dorm.
"My name is Veronica Larson, you guys can call me V for short. I'm in Band 101, Vocals, and Stage Fashion with all of you."The girl says. "You can ask me anything if you need help, and I'm in my third year here. I started here when I was fifteen so I am now eighteen."
"Margo Bryce, you obviuosly know my middle name now."
"Oh yeah Venus? was that the only name they could think of?"Margo punches me in the arm and I wince.
"Julie Molina."Jules mutters. "My friends call me Jules."
"Alexander Mercer, just call me Alex or Xander."Alex says.
"Reginald Petters, please call me Reg or Reggie."Reg introduces.
"Flynn Marx, live it love it learn it!"Flynn giggles, copying Dirty Candy's latest dance move.
"Nice to meet you all, my favorite song by you guys is probably one hundred bad days or on my way."V says.
"Thanks. Also the only part Luke wrote in one hundred bad days is 'Scared as Hell.'"Margo says. It's my tun to punch her in the arm.
"That's good to know."V says. "Here's your dorm, see you all in those three classes next week."She enters the dorm across the hall. I open the door and find it beautiful. Everyone gasps at how big the living area here is.
"Woah, this place is cool."I hear Nick say.
"Dude, when did you follow us?"Reg asks.
"I'm in the dorm down the hall."Nick explains. "I just wanted to cheek out my girl friends place."Nick says.
"Girlfriend?"Margo smirks at Julie.
"What about you and Luke?"Julie tries to change the subject.
"Remeber he broke my heart on the plain?"Margo jokes and walks off to find her room.
Julie's POV/Phone
We've been here for almost two months and it's now family week. Margo parents and her sister, Sarah, are coming. Luke little sister and parents are also coming, well at least his mom and Chloe. Of course my family is coming. Willie is sorta only coming for Alex because Reggie's and Alex's parents aren't coming. Reggie's parents are always fighting, and Alex's parents praticaly disowned him after telling them he's gay. V has been super nice to us and helps us every time we need it, so I'm grateful for her.
Right now Luke and Margo are arguing about what type of song they should write for their advanced guitar class. I'm listining to 100 bad days through my ear buds.
Keep in mind I own none of the music in this story! NONE OF IT!
Remember when we all got drunk?
I ended up with two broke thumbs
Oh my God, I felt so dumb, lucky me
I wrote a song that no one knows
I played a show and no one showed
Oh my God, I felt so alone, lucky me
When all is going wrong and you're scared as hell
What you gonna do? Who you gonna tell?
Maybe a hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
A hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
Yeah, no, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you no more
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da, da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da, da
No, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you no more
Remember when she broke my heart
Waitin' for the waiter to return my card?
Right as I let down my guard, lucky me
We had to work a bit more hard
Only just to get a little bit less far
We could laugh about it all tomorrow, couldn't we?
When all is going wrong and you're scared as hell
What you gonna do? Who you gonna tell?
Maybe a hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
A hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
Yeah, no, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you no more
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da, da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da, da, da
No, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you no more
Do your thing it goes like this
No, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you
A hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
Yeah, no, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you
A hundred bad days made a hundred good stories
A hundred good stories make me interesting at parties
Yeah, no, I ain't scared of you
No, I ain't scared of you no more
The song comes to an end and I pout. A knock on the door catches all of our attention.
I open the door and see our parents. Luke and Katie stop arugeing when their siblings come in. "Hey big bro!"Luna says, running up to Luke.
"Hey Luns."Luke says hugging his ten year old sister back. Willie hugs and kisses Alex making Margo and Luke gag. Sarah walks up to them, wearing her normal knee high dress and ankle boots.
"While I heard your new song, Little do you know..."(again I do not own the music)Sarah pauses then resumes. "It was a nice song, I just don't really get it though."
"It's a sad love song, me and Lucas here wrote it for a dare."Margo mutters. I see Carlos watching Luna in a trance. "Hey Lun, wanna see my room?"Margo says, noticing my worried look.
"Yes! Of course I do!"Luna squeals. Luke and Sarah follow them and I drag Carlos along with them. Margo and Luke have to share a room because there aren't enough rooms for everyone. I share with Flynn while Reg and Alex share a room. Margo side of the room is neat and clean, while Luke's side is a bit messy. "You guys share a room?"Luna asks.
"yup."They answer together. Margo music is still playing and she's listining to ghost of you. Luna explores the room since the song is just starting it plays the entire time she dose.
Here I am waking up
Still can't sleep on your side
There's your coffee cup
The lipstick stain fades with time
If I can dream long enough
You'd tell me I'd be just fine
I'll be just fine
So I drown it out like I always do
Dancing through our house
With the ghost of you
And I chase it down
With a shot of truth
Dancing through our house
With the ghost of you
Cleaning up today
Found that old Zepplin shirt
You wore when you ran away
And no one could feel your hurt
We're too young, too dumb
To know things like love
But I know better now
(Better now)
So I drown it out like I always do
Dancing through our house
With the ghost of you
And I chase it down
With a shot of truth
Dancing through our house
With the ghost of you
Too young, too dumb
To know things like love
Too young, too dumb
So I drown it out like I always do
Dancing through our house
With the ghost of you
And I chase it down
With a shot of truth
That my feet don't dance
Like they did with you
Luke adjusts his guitar on the wall and throws some dirty socks into the hamper on his side. "I really like this room. Especially your side."
"Here I'll play you a song I've been working on, It's called starving."(again I do not own the music in this fanfic)
"You've been working on music without meh?"Luke asks angirly.
"This song is so not your type Lucas."I say. Margo gives me a small smile.
"You know just what to say, things that scare me
I should just walk away, but I can't move my feet
The more that I know you, the more that I want to
Something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
Don't need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo
By the way, right away, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
By the way, right away, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
You know just how to make my heart beat faster
Emotional earthquake, bring on disaster
You hit me head on, got me weak in my knees
Yeah, something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday
So much younger yesterday
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
Don't need no butterflies when you give me the whole damn zoo
By the way, right away, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
By the way, right away, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
You you, yeah till I tasted you
By the way, by the way, you do things to my body
I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you
I didn't know till I tasted you
The more that I know you, the more that I want to
Something inside me's changed
I was so much younger yesterday"I see Luke hiding his face in his bed so no one can see him blush. Reggie laughs at Luke's reaction and Alex holds back Willie.
"EKKKKK!"Luna squeals. "I loved it! Who was it about? Is it about my brother? When did you write it?"Luna falls to the ground in exaushtion.
"I'm not answering the first two question's but I've been working on it for the past three days."Margo says. V enters the room and prys Luke off the bed. He must have been heavy because she dropped him on the floor. V laughs at him staying there. "Luke get up!"Margo yells, kicking him in the stomach. He groans and rolls onto his back.
"Margo! Why did you kick him?"Maria, her mom, asks. She is also just leaving him there.
"Ehh, no reason, he shoudn't be on the floor anyway."Katie sits back on her bed and talks to Luna and Sarah. Luke is being over dramtic because he is 'hurt'. Margo finally gets up again and helps him up. Luke pecks her lip lightly for helping him up and Reggie has to hold Tyler back again. Emily and Maria aww at Margo ruffiling his hair. "Reg, let go of my dad."Margo glares at him. Tyler gets released and he just glares at Luke like he's a roach. Margo must have noticed because she's returning the exact same glare.
"We are staying in a nearby hotel along with all the other parents, apperantly the owner is used to this time of year."Dad tells me when we leave their room.
"Oh, that sounds fun."I giggle at Carlos tripping over himself trying to talk to Luna. Margo sneak attacks Luke by jumping on his back from a stool.
"Margo, get off of my back!"Luke sighs, trying to make her get off.
"Nope,"Margo snickers. Reggie and Flynn gag at their couple like actions. "You can't ma..."Luke prys her fingers off him and throws her on the floor. "ohhhh damn it!"Margo sighs and goes to grab an apple. Tyler is still glaring at Luke like he's a disgusting roach. "Dad stop it or I'm staying here for x-mas!"Margo yells from the kitchen.
"I wasent!"Tyler lies.
"Your fathers lying, he doesn't want you to have bf!"Maria calls over to her.
"I knew it Tyler Martin Bryce!"Margo calls out. Tyler looks at the ground, embaresd that his daugter just called him bye his normal name. "I'm goin' for a walk."Margo mutters and walks out, puling her leather jacket on.
Margo POV/Phone
I walk out of the dorm and run down the stairs, avoiding the other students and their parents. As I reach the bottom of the stairs I run into someone else.
"Watch it man!"The guy says.
"Excuse me?"I ask sharply."I am a girl not a man!"I snap, brushing my jeans off.
"That explains everything..."He pauses when he looks at me. "Hey your Margo Bryce."
"In the flesh idiot."I growl. Someone taps on my shoulder and I turn to see Sarah.
"Can I join you? I need to talk to someone after being abandoned for four months."Sarah asks, running her foot on the floor lightly.
"Sure, bye jerkface."I say, flipping the guy off. Sarah giggles and we walk off.
"So I just wanted to apoligize for those things I said. Your very talented but the stubburn part is entirely true."I laugh at how right she is. "Also do you even know who you just flipped off?"
some jerkface duh! Is what I want to say but I shake my head instead.
"His name is Atlas Vincent, he is a very famous singer and model."I stop in my tracks and laugh.
"I don't freakng care!"I laugh some more as we resume walking. My phone bings and I stop again.
L.P
Dude where r u?
M.B
None ya!
L.P
Tell me Carlos, Julie and Luna wanna go for a walk too.
M.B
We just got outside
bruh you are so annoying
also watch out for some blond dude who has a streak of green in his hair.
I sorta enraged him
L.P
Of course you did!
You are always pissing me off
M.B
I called him a jerkface
and acording to Sarah
He is a famous singer
& model
L.P
Don't flipping care, just wait outside
Got it?
M.B
Got it!
I slip my phone into my pocket and lean against the brick gate. Luke, his sister, and the Molina kids finally get out here and we all resume the walk. Sarah and Julie start talking about Vincent and giggiling. "You have a boy friend Jules, cut it out."I point out.
"That may be true but it can't stop me from day dreaming about Atlas Vincent..."Julie pauses when she see's something. "OMG there he is!"Julie squeals, causing me and Luke to cover our ears.
"Bruh, cut it out!"I snap, hiding behind Luke. Julie and Sarah run up to him and start asking a bunch of quetions. Luckily it's a park so Luna and Carlos start playing. I sit on the bench and Luke is being dragged to play by his sister. I laugh when Luke climbs onto the roof of the playground so his sister can't see him. Vincent must have noticed me because he asks them to give him a minute.
"Hey there."He says. I ignore him and run off to climb next to Luke.
Atlas Vincent's POV/Phone
I growl when she walks off. She's in my all my classes and always gets paired up with that guy. To be honest, since she called me a jerkface a few minutes ago I kind of feel the need to become hers, her become mine. "Lucas James Patterson! Let your sister have a boyfriend!"I hear her say.
"Nope, I'm not budgeing."The guy says. Margo pushes him and gets pulled down with him. That part of the playground is surronded by grass so they land softly. My little brother, Aaron runs up to me with a smirk. He just turned 11 so he thinks he's the smartest being alive.
"So you like that Bryce girl there?"Aaron asks and I slap him. Margo is trying to escape his grip which makes me smile widley. "I'll take that smile as a yes. Yo Margo Bryce! My brother likes you."Aaron yells and I chase after him. Margo is rolling her eyes and pecks Pattersons lips. His little sister crows happily and run up to hug them. I stop chasing Aaron and hurtfully lay on the ground.

"We're playing Starving! Not wake up. That's a song that Julie's mom wrote just for her."Margo grummbles. Instead of replying I scratch out number ten and put stariving in its place. Margo pats my head like I'm a dog and I kiss her. Tyler said that we can date as long as we don't take things to far. Margo raps er arms around my neck and I pull her onto my lap without breaking the kiss. My hands fly to her hair and tangle in with the knots. The door opens and we pull away from each other.
"Are we interupting something?"Reggie asks, earning a flick in the ear from Flynn."Anyway, we need the list of songs." I hand him the list and they leave. I open my laptop and cheek my emails really quickly.
"Okay, wanna watch a movie? It's a weekend!"I say.
"Sure, I get the first pick."Margo says. She choses Dooms Day and cuddle up to me as we watch it.
Margo fell asleep halfway through the movie and laid on my lap. I stroke her hair and pull her up further so that she is laying on my chest.
The week passes and now it's Halloween night. Margo is wearing a nice, non-slutty Harley Quinn costume. I'm going as a vampire, Julie as Hermione Granger, Reggie as a fire breathing monster, Alex as a ghost, and Flynn as a cat. When we're called to stage, we here all the students cheering. We play my version of the list all before mid night and head to go trick or treating.
Margo smiles and stands on her tippy toes to peck my cheek. I smile and keep her on her tippy toes for a few secounds as I kiss her. Her black sneakers fall to the ground and I groan. I push her against the wall and she jumps up on me, wrapping her legs around me. I kiss her softly before deepening it. Luckily I took the fake fangs out before we went on stage just a few hours ago. I pull away and trail kisses down her neck. She moans and lets her head fall limp as if I where a vampire.
