Chapter 2: Chapter 2
Ok so this is my second chapter.
1D up all night and Smile by Avril Lavinge
I wake up to a goat.
Yup that's right.
I look around and the guy's phone is bleating. Ugh.
I pick it up "Hello?" I ask and I must sound pretty bad.
"So you switched our phones?" Someone asks.
I moan and flop back onto my bed. "No I believe you took mine. Like I'd want yours." I say opening the window.
"Yeah sure. Fine what do I have to pay for my phone?" He asks.
I laugh. "Really? I just want my phone and you want your phone so when can we meet and why are you calling me so early?" I say.
"Because I just realized that this wasn't my phone. What's your excuse?" He shoots at me. I go to my laptop because Piper is pinging me.
"I found out at 3 AM so I thought of the other person. AKA you. So I decided I'd call today. But you woke me up." I say. "OK how about we meet at a Starbucks in 2 hours?" He asks.
"Ok in Tornet Mall. I'll be wearing-"I threw open my closet. "A green t-shirt White Jacket, Jeans and UGS, And I won't be able to wait long. I have places to be." I say.
"Yeah as If. That's a good meeting place" He says.
"Ok hour and a half unless you want 3 other girls laughing at you" I say. "Deal" He says. He hangs up. "
Piper I accidently switched phones with some guy. I have to return his (This one duh) Don't text me until I text u from my phone caus I don't want him like HCPing u. will talk to u, at forever 21? Awsome and we r all holding u for that outfit offer:] Annabet da awseom
I sent the text. I don't think the guy will care. Time to go.
I sit sipping a Mocha.
People bustle past laughing and talking.
I spot Piper "Piper!" I call. Piper turns to me and they run to me
"What are you doing here? I got your text but-"I cut piper off.
"Waiting to switch phones. I'll see you later at forever 21" I say Piper nods and rolls her eyes.
"Who is he?" Rachel asks "Go to a table and wait. Like I care" I say.
They sit down. The Starbucks is surprisingly empty "Percy Jackson at Fro-yo!" some girl screamed. The girls shot me an apologetic glance and ran with the rest of the crowd.
Now it was deserted. The guy ducks in, hood up sunglasses on. "Nice shirt" He says.
I hold out his phone "Thanks. UGH I hate this song" I say rolling my eyes.
Katy Perry's on replay
She's on replay
DJ got the floor to shake, the floor to shake
People going all the way
Yeah, all the way
I'm still wide awake
Percy raises an eyebrow.
People start filing in complaining.
He hands me my phone.
I type my password and check my things. Thalia complaining and not much else. "Thalia for god's sake how much trouble do you get into in 12 hours?" I ask to no one in particular while texting piper.
"A lot" Thalia says as she swoops past us to the counter. "That's your friend?" He asks.
"Yeah. She likes 4 more. Can't really fight her for that though" I say sighing.
"What's wrong with 4 more then?" He asks seeming to be interested.
"They're so- Mainstream. They don't write any of their own music, they don't have any of their own clothes or style." I say.
"Sucks for you" He says pulling his hood back. Hello Percy Jackson welcome home. "You knew?" He asks pulling his hood back up. I lean back arms crossed
"Payback is a Bitch. And I'd get a more sophisticated lock for your phone" I say. His hood is up but people have already seen him. I smile, pull my Yankees cap on, and walk out with Thalia.
We meet up at forever 21.
"Okay I choose your outfit" Piper says. I want to shake my head but once piper decides- well you don't change her mind period.
"Okay nothing to drastic," I say. Rachel snorts.
It turns out Piper only does drastic. "Really? I kind of like it" I admit.
I wear a cream oversized, (Fashionably Piper says) Sweater, Jeans and designer sneakers.
I like it. "Piper this is- can you make me another?" I say.
She's about to reply when Thalia enters the room
"Wow Piper u da girl. But we have an offer. Jason says his pre-show cancelled and was wondering if we wanted to perform a song?" Thalia says. "I already said yes for us. But we need new outfits. Pipe-?" Thalia doesn't get any farther.
We tackle her laughing. "Your brother is awesome. And the lead singer isn't too bad" I admit. They laugh because they know me.
"Ok you need match but not too much. Something that looks good on us and doesn't clash with Rachel. Blue and white, with some black.-"Piper keeps on going. I laugh. Because this is awesome.
Piper goes overboard.
I wear white jeans, black shirt, and a long light material, teal to purple scarf (Purple one end teal other) wrapped around my neck. We all wear white or black boots.
Thalia has a black skirt and ripped leggings, blue shirt that matches her eyes, and a white headband because she refused a scarf.
Rachel has Blue shorts, white shirt, and a black scarf wrapped around her hair.
Piper wears a white dress, blue mini jacket, and black leggings.
"You out do yourself" Rachel says. Piper smiles and draws a credit card, and we change back into our clothes and follow piper.
"Ok I am so glad that they had these set up" Piper says as she does my makeup.
I had tried to protest but without it Piper says you look shallow and pale. I don't want that. The trailers for us where already set up.
I stare at my reflection. It doesn't look like me. It looks like an older girl who knows how to do makeup and breaks hearts, Good.
Someone knocks on the door. "Come in" I say. Percy enters "Ready?" He asks smiling. I laugh "Yeah never. Let's do this"
We stand behind the curtain, everything is already set. "Go" Percy says. I walk out first,
Then Piper, Thalia, Rachel, Serena, and Terri.
All girls because Jason says we couldn't include our whole band. People look interested.
I smile "This song is called Smile." I say. Mutters
You know that I'm a crazy bitch
I do what I want when I feel like it
All I wanna do is lose control
Oh, oh
But you don't really give a shit
You don't let it go let it go with it.
'Cause you're fucking crazy rock'n'roll
[Pre-Chorus:]
Yo-u said "Hey,
What's your name?"
It took one look
And now we're not the same
Yeah you said "Hey."
And since that day
You stole my heart
And you're the one to blame
[Chorus:]
(Yeah)
And that's why I smile
It's been a while
Since every day and everything has
Felt this right
And now you turn it all around
And suddenly you're all I need
The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
Last night I blacked out I think
What did you, what did you put in my drink?
I remember making out and then, oh, oh
I woke up with a new tattoo
Your name was on me and my name was on you
I would do it all over again
[Pre-Chorus:]
Yo-u said "Hey,
What's your name?"
It took one look
And now we're not the same
Yeah you said "Hey."
And since that day
You stole my heart
And you're the one to blame
[Chorus:]
(Yeah)
And that's why I smile
It's been a while
Since every day and everything has
Felt this right
And now you turn it all around
And suddenly you're all I need
The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
[Bridge:]
You know that I'm a crazy bitch
I do what I want when I feel like it
All I wanna do is lose control
You know that I'm a crazy bitch
I do what I want when I feel like it
All I wanna do is lose control
[Chorus:]
And that's why I smile
It's been a while
Since every day and everything has
Felt this right
And now you turn it all around
And suddenly you're all I need
The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
(The reason) The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
The reason why I-I-I
I smi-i-ile
We end the song,
Piper and I back to back. We get a standing ovation. I mean Standing because everyone is standing.
They ask for an Encore. I shrug and we sing Sk8ter Boi. Even better. People have out cameras and are laughing. We pack up as they cheer.
It's pretty fast.
Then 4 more comes out. Jason and Piper kiss cheeks, Percy does the same to me, and the audience goes wild.
Whether they're mad or happy how can I tell? "How did you like that?" Percy asks. Cheers.
"Ok well how about we do a duet?" He asks me smiling crookedly. Shit this was his plan. "Sure" I say.
Cheers. "How about next time we're in New York?" Percy asks, Thank god. "Awesome" I say.
"Da" He says winking. I know he read that text I sent Piper.
"Meet my little sister" Jason says holding up Thalias hand. Everyone cheers
"That was- wow" I say yawning in between. Now I wear a white top that says
Like I care. Dat Awesom?
Piper had made my shirt.
We all wore jeans and sneakers, our shirts the only variance.
"Well you got your wish" Thalia says to Piper. She nods.
"Your place?" Rachel asks Thalia. "God yes. I just want to sleep." Thalia says. We step outside.
It's about 3 AM. Then we climb into Thalias SUV.
"Hey don't forget me!" Percy says. I roll my eyes.
Piper lets him in and he climbs in back with me. "Well hello" He says. "Yeah Hi" I say. "So what did you think?" Percy asks. "That that was awesome" I say. "Great. You're a really good singer" Percy says smiling. "Thanks. How good where we actually?" I ask anxiously. Percy pulls up his I phone. "Picture?" He asks.
I nod and stick my tongue out, Click.
I'm laughing because he's tickling me, Click.
Then I keep a straight face, Click.
"Here" He says and shows me you tube. I look really good on stage and as we sing my voice rings clearly, even on this bad quality.
"Awesome. I mean just- wow" I say shocked.
"Yup you're famous" Percy says.
I love night showers.
I put on my pajama pants and an oversized t-shirt. Someone bursts in.
"Sorry" Percy says. I cross my arms "You're lucky I just finished changing or you'd be wearing a black eye and quite a few nails in your back." I brush past him.
The doorway is too small and our skin touches. It feels like there's electricity when we touch.
Percy pauses and so do I. Percy furrows his brow
"What was-"I begin but Percy shrugs and shuts the door.
