Something Great

“What do you mean you don’t have the tickets! Stacey!” I say grabbing her arm and pulling her around.

“Well I didn’t think anyone would be here. It’s the start of their tour and..”

“Well they obviously love them to. Look at that line! Stacey what am I going to do with you?” rubbing my forehead I already have a headache “Give me the money.”

“Money?”

“The money for the damn tickets!”

“Oh here.” Stacey digs in her purse and hands Kia the money.

Walking to the front gate Stacey is right behind me. “Don’t follow me, get in line!” I tell her pointing to the end of the line. Doing as she’s told Stacey leaves and I make my way to the ticket booth. All the while getting bitch looks. Is it obvious I don’t belong here? Damn it Stacey you own me big time.

“Excuse me, can I get through. Thank you. Hey move over! Hi behind you.” pushing and shoving I finally make it to the front booth.

“Hi can I have..”

“We are all sold out. Come back next time!” said the girl behind the glass who is messing with posters.

“Really? Ugh I don’t want to come back for this band.” looking back at Stacey “Is there anyway you can.. Molly?”

“Yeah” she answers looking up at Kia “No way, Kia? That’s you right? Wow long time no see.”

“I know! I lost touch with everyone at McKinnly High. Do you still..”

“What are you doing here? Are you one of them.” Molly whispers pointing at the line of girls.

“God no.” I whisper back “So are there really no more tickets? My dorky sister is going to die when I tell her”

“Well hey I’m saving some for my cousin. She was suppose to be here an hour ago. She’s traveling from Utah. It’s front row. Pretty big money. You think you got it?”

“Hell yeah. I’ll take it.”

“Oh now that depends.”

“On what?”

“You still know Jake right? I saw him the other day and wow! Took my breath away.”

“Tucker? Yeah we still hang out. Why?”…

“Did you get it?” Stacey screams.

“Yes I did and you owe me big time!”

“AHHHH! Thank you Kee! Best sister ever! Wait, how? I heard they were all sold out.”

“In exchange for my best friends number. No biggie.”

“Is that possible? Who’s number did you give out? And to who?”

“I gave Jake’s’ number to Molly.”

“That creep who flirted with all your boyfriends? How could you?”

“Yep that’s her. And now it’s my turn to ruin her fun” I say making my evil face.

“Well can you do that later we’re going in now.”

“Oh”

6 minutes later we are in the arena and Stacey is gasping for air freaking out. Then I get a call from Jake.

“Hey Jay what’s up?” I say trying to keep up with Stacey.

“Hey Kee did you give Stoner my number? If so then, why?”

“Oh uh I kinda exchanged it for some ticket cause my sister wants to see this concert here at Jobing Arena and turns out..”

“Well she just called me and said you’re setting us up. I don’t know if you remember but she was a freak in high school.”

“Hey be nice. She wasn’t that bad. Was she?” I say looking around for Stacey who already took off.

“She followed me to all my classes and flirted with all your boyfriends! Don’t get me started on the frog in Biology.”

“Yeah I guess that is bad, but hey I owe you Jake! I gotta go I lost my sister bye!” hanging up the phone I look at the tickets. Section AA Row 1 Seat 8.Wow it is front row. 3 minutes later I find our seats and Stacey.

“God I thought you got beat up or something.” I say taking my seat.

“Oh I needed to sit. I thought I was going to pass out.” she says fanning herself with her hand.

The show starts in an hour and I already have need some water to take my pill. Leaving to get water I look up to see a very packed arena. All seats are taken with girls of all shapes and sizes. Oh great more eyes to dog me down. Making my way up to the top floor takes me almost 10 minutes The aisle is full of lost girls trying to find their seats. Another 10 minutes later I have my water in my hand, taking my last pill of the day. Finding an empty hallway away from the loud obnoxious girls I sit and ponder to myself.

“It’s almost 8 and I’m sure it won’t be over till 11 hopefully 12. I’ll have time to stop by the club maybe see Kyle for awhile. I wonder what he’s doing?” talking to myself I block all the tweens out only thinking about Kyle, my recent coworker. He has gorgeous blue eyes and touchable hair. Oh how I want to run my fingers through it. I’m pretty sure I got put into the friend zone because of my love for sports. Damn home-girl status.

“Hey are you alright? You look quite ill.” Says a unfamiliar voice.

Don’t move and they won’t see you I stupidly think.

“Hello?”

Ugh go away!

“I’m Liam.” he says sitting down next to me.

Oh great.
