Here Comes Trouble, Chapter 2

I should probably mention to first-time readers that “Here Comes Trouble” is an Honor Society song off of Fashionably Late, and that this story is an Honor Society Fanfiction 🙂

“I WIN!” Michael cried, slamming the palm of his hand against the wall. “I beat you to breakfast!”

“That’s what he said.” I uttered, walking in in front of him.

He narrowed his eyes at me and walked in behind me. “That doesn’t even make sense, Maddy.”

I shrugged. “Why do I care?”

“You’re confusing.” he remarked. I heard the faint hum of Lady Gaga’s “Love Game”. I looked at Michael. Slowly, he pulled his phone out of his pocket an answered it. “Hello? Oh yeah, hey Alex. We’re downstairs getting breakfast. What? Hung over? How is Jason hung over? Ugh, fine, I’ll come.” He hung up and looked at me.

“Go.” I said. “And wait, how IS Jason hung over, you guys didn’t drink last night.”

“Alex said something about Jason bringing something along with him and then like, chugging it.” Michael told me. He shrugged. “IDK, but I’ll be back down in a bit.” He turned and left the room.

I started to dish out some lame hotel food on a foam plate when a guy my age came up beside me. “Hello.” he greeted.

“Hi.” I replied.

This guy had hair identical to Jason, eyes identical to Jason…

I laughed. “Hey Jason.”

He looked at me funny. “Jason? I’m Mason.”

“Mason?” I laughed. “Nice try, Jay.”

“Who’s Jay?” he asked. OK, I was sure he was Jason, he was even wearing Jason’s pajamas.

“But…” I said.

Something vibrated in “Mason”‘s pocket. “Oh, I gotta go.” he said. He took my hand and kissed the top of it. It felt stingy, sharp, and cold. “Goodbye.” And with that, he was gone. He almost seemed to vanish at the speed of light.

“That was weird.” I remarked. I took my cheap food and went back up to the room, well, Jason and Michael’s room.

Jason was laying in his bed, and he looked like a dead lump of sheets. His mass of curly hair was everywhere, and besides his feet sticking out of the bottom of the blankets, the back of his head was the only part of him you could see.

“Oh, hey Maddy.” Alex greeted.

“Hey Alex.” I smiled. I looked at Jason. “So he’s wasted?”

“Yep.” Michael said.

“Well, we don’t know for sure.” Alex told me. “Mike, you gonna check?”

Michael nodded and leaned closer to Jay. “Hey.” he said quietly.

Jason looked up at him, smiled and made a little “mm” sound. “Hey sexy.” he said.

Michael’s eyes widened. “NYAH!” he jumped back. “Yeah, I think he’s definitely wasted. He’s acting gay.”

“Or maybe he is gay.” Alex suggested slyly.

I hit Alex on the arm. “Don’t be mean, he’s drunk!”

“So what do you suggest we do?” Michael asked.

“Let’s just let him rest.” I said. Everyone nodded, even Jason. “I’m gonna go eat in my room. You two can go get breakfast.”

“Alright.” Michael and Alex said.

Here Comes Trouble: Chapter 1

2 weeks earlier

“Maddy…Maddy…MADDY!”

I jumped up on my knees on the queen-sized hotel bed. “WHAT? WHAT?” I cried. I lifted my light blue satin eye mask off of my face.

Michael laughed, laying down on the bed to my right, looking up at me. “You’re funny. It’s morning.”

“So? I can still sleep.” I groaned, falling back on to the pillows.

Allow me to introduce myself. I am Madeline Splendora, best friend/neighbor of Michael Bruno of Honor Society. I get to travel all over the place with them, so here I am in DC with Michael.

Michael laughed again. “No, you can’t sleep!” He waved his feet in my face. “Get up or face the wrath of my feet!”

I shrieked. “No!” I squirmed around on the bed so that I was laying next to Michael. “Why did you wake me up, Michael?”

“Because I could!” Michael grinned. “And because I’m happy today and none of the guys will get up…” He looked at the doorway connecting my room and his and Jason’s room. “Alex got out of bed, hit me with a pillow, then got back into bed…it was pretty pointless.”

I giggled and flopped my hand on to his face. He let out an “Ah!”

“You’re funny.” I told him.

“You already said that.” he replied into my hand. “Come on Maddy, let’s go find the continental breakfast in this place, I want cheap waffles!”

“Michael Bruno, you’re the only person I know that wants to get out of bed for cheap waffles.” I said. “I’m still in my pajamas.”

“So? Get dressed!” Michael urged, sitting up and crouching, perching on his toes and looming over me.

I laughed and pushed him. He lost his balance and fell off the bed with a loud thud.

“OWW!!” he shouted. “THAT WAS UNNECESSARY!!”

I leaned over the bed and looked down at Michael. “Hey, cool, you’re already dressed.”

“Because I’m hunrgy!” Michael replied. “I need food to live! I want someone to come with me to the continental breakfast so I can get food, hence live, and since you don’t want to take me, you don’t want me to get food, hence you don’t want me to live!” He gasped. “MADDY WANTS TO KILL ME!!”

“No I don’t!” I cried. “I’ll get dressed, but you have to leave!”

“Go get dressed in the bathroom, I’ll wait out here.” Michael snapped.

“Fine fine…” I smiled, taking black skinny jeans and a pink and black converse t-shirt from Target out of the pile of clothes in my open black suitcase. I changed into my clothes in the bathroom and let my long, wavy brown hair out of the ponytail it was in, brushed it, then went back outside.

“CAN WE GO NOW??” Michael pleaded.

“YES!” I shouted.

“COOL!” Michael grinned, zipping out the hotel door. He stopped. “You coming?”

I quickly slipped on my pink fuzzy slippers. “I’m coming, I’m coming.” I hopped out the door as I continued to put one slipper on. When I got outside, Michael was already at the elevator all the way down the hall.

“Come on come ON!” he urged, waving his arms like a jellyfish to make me come.

“Are you doing interpretive dance?” I asked him.

“No, I’m trying to get you to come!!” he cried. Then the elevator dinged and an old lady stepped out. She looked at Michael doing his jellyfish thing, then hit him with her purse. “Ow!” Michael cringed.

“Crazy kid.” the lady mumbled.

I cracked up as soon as she was out of sight. “Let’s go get waffles.”

“Finally.” Michael grinned.

Forever & Further, Chapter…6?

New chapter, finally! Well the vacation ran a bit late since I have been sick 😦 My school is swine-flu-positive, and 20% of the school is absent…including me. Well, new chapter, and don’t forget that there is a 1-hour special of The Othersiders tomorrow night at 9! Woo, maybe there will be some Kriley action! YES! Haha, probably not…

“So…” Riley gulped, later that night. Riley and I had just gone out to dinner and now he was walking me home since the restraunt was a block away. “This is…weird.”

“Yeah…” I nodded.

“Um, KC?” Riley asked.

I looked up at him. “Yeah?”

“Can I uh…” He blushed, reached out, and took my hand.

I laughed. “Yeah, you can hold my hand.”

“Too late.” he grinned.

“So uh, does this mean we’re dating?” I asked him hesitantly.

He didn’t reply at first. “Um, well, you know, not officially, like maybe we should go on a couple more dates before we declare ourselves actually dating.”

“Right.” I nodded. “Good idea.”

“But you want to date?” he inquired.

I took a deep breath. “Yeah…I want to date you.”

“Well, you also want to date Nick Jonas so…” Riley laughed.

I gasped. “Well yeah, but did I just eat pizza with Nick Jonas?”

“Burnin’ up, burnin’ up…” Riley joked. “No I’m not Nick Jonas, thank god.”

We were now at my front door.

“Well,” Riley said. “I guess I’ll see you tomorrow?”

I nodded. “Yeah. I uh, had fun.”

Riley smiled. “Yep…”

“Bye.” I said, starting to go inside.

“Wait!” Riley cried. I turned around. “I mean uh…wait?”

I laughed. “What?”

He leaned forward and kissed my cheek. “Bye.”

“Um…” I gulped. “Bye.”

Temporary vacation :)

I’m taking a little temporary break from updating, maybe 1 week tops, because right now I’m having a hard time in Geometry, so I’m trying to focus more on that and less on other things…

BUT ON THE BRIGHT SIDE!!! The new The Othersiders season premeres October 7th, so, on October 7, the next chapter of Forever & Further WILL be up!

and in other news…

HONOR SOCIETY CONCERT TOMORROW!! …maybe. it’s still pending, but I’m really close right now because my BFF is going and I am 99% possibly going with her. Not that you really care, but I just wanted to say it 🙂

And if I am going, I’m bringing Archie and having them sign him, so he’ll have a tattoo!! I’ll take a picture 🙂

Yeah, that’s about it, so enjoy this little short break, and I’ll be back on the 7th

And don’t worry, I’m gonna change the site back to its normal, non-fashionably-late-realease-party-theme right now 🙂

peace ❤

Here Comes Trouble, Prologue

Michael Bruno grinned as he poured him and his band-mates each a glass of champagne. This was it. They had done it, their debut album. They had just checked a few minutes ago, and they had found out that it was number 5 on iTunes. “That’s it, Noyes, gimme that champagne, we’re toasting that.” He had said upon seeing it.

They all laughed and toasted a successful release. They were on their way, and all of the reviews they had read of their album had been in the 4-to-5 star range.

“Next stop, top of the charts.” Jason said. They all nodded and smiled. Hopefully, Jay would be right about that.

“So what do you say we make a new gentleman’s club to celebrate?” Alex asked.

“Well why not?” Andrew agreed. Then, suddenly, the lights went dark.

“Oh, that stupid storm!” Michael cried. “Noyes, help me find some flashlights.” There was no reply. “Alex?” Nothing. “Andrew? Jason?”

“Yeah.” Andrew said.

“What?” Jason said. The lights went back on and their jaws dropped.

Michael gulped. “Where’s Alex?”

My Destiny, Chapter 3

When I knocked on Demi’s front door, it practically opened before I knocked. Demi stood there, here eyes red from crying. “Joe!” she squeaked, wrapping her arms around me and burying her face in my chest.

I rubbed her back soothingly. “Shh, shh, what’s…” I trailed off when I saw her house. “…wrong…” It was trashed. Furniture toppled over, toilet paper streaming around various rooms, food everywhere, things spilled, it was a complete mess. “What happened?” I asked, stepping into her house.

Demi shrugged. “I don’t know, I came home and it was like this, someone must’ve broke in because the back door’s knob and lock were both broken off.”

I looked around in awe. “Who would do this?” I thought out loud. I noticed a message written on the wall in spray paint.

Stay away from our boys.

“What does that mean?” I wondered.

“That’s why I invited you to come.” Demi told me. “I think some of your fans did this.”

“No.” I denied. “Most of our fans love us and you.”

“Yeah, most of them.” Demi said.

I shook my head. “I don’t think they did.”

“They who do you think did it?” Demi inquired.

I hesitated and bit my bottom lip. “I have no idea.” Demi nodded sadly. “But,” I added. I tilted her head up. “I will find out. I promise.” I kissed the top of her head and she wrapped her arms around me again.

“Joe,” she said. “you’re awesome.”

Cinderella of the Slopes, Chapter 1

No doodles this time 😦 I’m going to draw some and scan them

“Hey Brighton.” Carmen came bouncing up behind me in her snowboarding duds. We were waiting outside the school for the ski shuttle. Carmen is my snowboarding best friend. She has long brown hair that’s in ringlets with bangs and big brown eyes, and she’s always smiling. She looked around. “What’cha staring at?” She asked slowly.

In reality, I was staring at Joe, who was across the way laughing with his “cool buddies.” I couldn’t help it, he just looked so cute when he laughed, and his beanie made his hair even more flippy than usual. It took all my strength not to just run over there and pet his head.

“Um, nothing.” I replied. “Just daydreaming about Seven Springs.” Seven Springs is Pittsburgh’s ski resort. Well, one of them. The other one is Hidden Valley (like the salad dressing) but I don’t like it there. Not at all organized, and the slopes are lame.

“Okay.” Carmen shrugged. She perched the plastic-canvas case that her board was in on its “toe” and leaned on her left side. “I wish the bus would come already. We’ve been waiting for HOURS!” I laughed. She was so sarcastic…and impatient.

“It should be coming soon.” I told her. “Just wait.”

“I can’t!” she groaned. I laughed again. A 15-year-old with the patience of a toddler. Then the bus pulled up. Carmen and I joined the mob trying to put their skis and boards in the bottom cavity of the charter bus. I lost Carmen in the crowd, so I was on my own. And wouldn’t you know it, Mr. Sexy comes up behind me.

“Move, move, move.” he demanded as he pushed his way through the other kids struggling to get to the bus. I took advantage of the space he was leaving as he walked and followed him, successfully reaching the bus and putting my skis in the cavity. We struggled our way out and both fell upon getting out of the mob. He picked up the goggles that had fallen off of the top of my head and handed them to me. “These yours?”

“Uh-huh.” I nodded.

He grinned. “They’re cool.” he said quietly. I looked down at my one-of-a-kind, sharpie-doodled-on ski goggles as he handed them to me. We both stood up. “I guess I’ll see you on the slopes, doodle girl.” he winked as he boarded the bus.

Forever & Further, Chapter 6

Short chapter, I know, but it was really hard to write because I usually just start a story with there being a relationship, I never really make someone ask someone else out so…that’s my explanation.

“So you wanted to stay after?” Riley asked, closing the front door behind Sam, Jackie, and Zack as they left.

I took a deep breath, but ended up sighing. “Yeah.”

“Why?” he asked.

“I think you know.”

“I don’t.”

I stared at him for a minute. “You’re not gonna make this easy, are you?”

He shook his head in amusement. “Nope!”
I groaned in frustration. “Fine. I’m just gonna come out and say it. Yes Riley, I do like you.”

Riley was silent for a moment. “Y-you do?”

“What did you think I was going to say?” I asked him.

“I-I-I don’t know, I didn’t think you were gonna say yes!” Riley cried.

“So you thought I was gonna say no?” I questioned.

“Well no, I don’t know, I’m confused.” he said.

“So we’ve established that you like me…” I started.

“And you like me…” Riley finished. He hesitated. “So I guess now we should…go out?”

“Um…” I gulped. “Yeah, I guess that’s what it comes to.”

“So do you maybe want to go to dinner tonight?” Riley asked me.

“Uh-huh.” I replied.

He grinned. “Cool.”
