I meet the band
The next day, I came to school and opened my locker. I got my stuff and was soon greeted by a squealing Alice.
"Annabeth! Annabeth!" She yelled.
"What???" I said, not wanting her to be causing a scene.
"Alex's band is coming here Saturday!! And we get free tickets!" She squealed.
Alex was a drummer in a band called "The halfbloods". Once Alice told me the news that he was in the band, i said I would look it up, but truly, i never did. Rock bands weren't my thing. I'm into books and quietness, not the blaring noise and crowds at rock concerts.
"Ok..." I said.
"Please please please come with me!" She squeaked.
"Well..." I began.
"Please!!!!!"
"Fine! One rock concert won't hurt." I sighed.
"Yes!! This is going to be awesome!" Alice said, hugging me. I smiled and ruffled her black hair.
"We have classes to get to" I said.
"See you Saturday!" She replied, running off.
That Saturday evening, I got stood in the mirror. I had received a text from Alice saying "wear something good".
I looked through my closet, most of my clothes were, well, normal. I didn't want to risk ripping any of my nice clothes in the crowd of a rock concert, so I threw on a Long island T-shirt and some jeans, and I wore my standard sneakers. I looked back in the mirror, and put my hair in a braid. I looked alright, not too punk, and not too nice for a concert. I then waited for Alex and Alice to pick me up. 15 minutes passed and I heard honking in the driveway. I ran downstairs and said goodbye to my mom, I opened my front door to see a red van, with "the halfbloods" written on the side of it. I walked down the walkway of my yard and was greeted with Alice sliding the van door open.
"Get in, loser! We're going rocking" she lamely joked. I chuckled and got in. The van was pretty big, probably to hold all the instruments. I looked around, and saw Alex in the driver seat.
"Hey, Annabeth" he said.
"Hey, Alex" I smiled.
"Meet my band mates, this is Tyson," Alex said, pointing to a dirty blonde kid who was pretty tall, and had brown eyes. "He's the guitarist." Said Alex. I smiled politely at Tyson.
"This, is Luke, he's the base player" Continued Alex, pointing to a fairly handsome blonde boy with a small scar on his face.
"Hi" Luke said, with a charming smile.
"Hi" I replied back.
"And this..is Jackson, the singer" Alex said, pointing to a boy with black messy hair. His head was down, but he looked up at them, he had striking green eyes and a smirk plastered on his face.
"Hey" he said.
"H-hey.." I said, smiling slightly.
Alice leaned over and whispered in my ear,
"More like the hot lead singer" she said, with a giggle. I chuckled and sat in the van silently as Alex drove. This was going to be one heck of a concert.
