Guts

It was the day of bass tryouts and Jack, Yanni, and I had been sitting there for the past two hours about to just give up. Yanni kept tapping his fingers on the table making random beats and Jack was drifting to sleep. Surprisingly quite a few people had showed up but none were to our liking. After the last person left we were kind of feeling defeated. We started closing the garage door when we heard someone yell out “Wait.”

We looked up and low and behold there was Maria, with her brother Zack. He was carrying a bass and they both looked out of breath and sweaty. They looked like they had run a marathon. Maria ran up to Jack and hugged him and explained what had happened. Turns out their car ended up with a flat on the way to us and they didn’t have a spare so they took off walking to us, 3 miles later and here they were. We gave them some water and let them cool off and Zack said he was ready. The song choice was up to him so we were eager to see what he was going to play.

Almost instantly we realized the song, American Idiot! Yanni ran up to the drums and Jack grabbed his guitar and they started playing along. Maria looked at me and winked as I jumped up the microphone. After the song was over everyone was all smiles. Jack and I looked at each other. It was an unspoken agreement, Zack was in. I looked back at Yanni to make sure he was okay with it and he just smiled and nodded his head. I looked at Zack and told him he was in! Maria was ecstatic. We were all feeling good so we decided to take a swim. My parents had gone back out on a date so that left us to fend for ourselves. Zack asked if we had a grill and went and bought some ribs and hamburgers to grill. He turned out to be pretty good on the grill. We cooked out and ate and swam and just had a great time.
It was decided that everyone would stay because of Zacks car, it couldn’t be fixed until the next day and his mom was at work and his dad had to be up early. Yanni just wanted to stay, and of course Jack was staying (especially since Maria was staying.)

*Not even! You know that’s a lie! I stayed cuz of you baby! *
^Yea try and butter me up! You know it was because of her you can’t deny it!

My parents agreed to it. All the boys were staying in my room and the living room couch and Maria was on the couch. We ended up staying outside until like 1 in the morning and drifted inside to shower and watch movies. At about 3 everyone was falling asleep so we all drifted to the rooms, Zack stayed on the couch, Yanni was on the futon in my room, and Jack and I were on my bed. I went to sleep dreaming of being a star.
