together we will be unbroken

Andy and Ashley fell asleep around three thirty. I'm really in no mood to sleep, I'm to scared for what horror might be waiting for me. I wonder if I could move the Xbox from the basement to the living room...

So after about an hour of playing modern warfare three live, I put the controller down. "Siri, is there a Starbucks around here?" Siri is my best friend. We have the best conversations.

"There is a Starbucks exactly one-point-six miles from here." Siri answers.

"Thanks Siri you're a doll." I grab my black baby doll coat and walk out the door.

There is so much snow. I love it! Snow is the thing that I miss the most. I mean the sunburns that I get in L.A. are all fine and dandy, but snow. I watch lights turn on in the houses and apartments that I pass. I try to imagine what those people are up to. I see a silhouette of a mother holding a child and I smile.

"Well someone's up early." The guy behind the counter smiles. "What can I get for you?"

He's kinda cute. Brown hair, blue eyes, oohh nice tattoo you douche bag. Lace stop, just because he has a tribal tattoo doesn't make him a douche bag."Ugh.. Can I get a chai tea latte with vanilla soy, and a mocha frappicino?"

"Coming right up. So might I ask what a pretty girl like you is doing here before five a.m?" He starts assembling my latte.

A little flirty but not douchbaggy."Oh you know just... getting some coffee."

He laughs, "Yeah that's normally what people come in here for. I'm Tyler."

"Laci."

"Laci. I like it. So where are you from? Your accent is different."

"I'm from Ireland." He seems nice.

"Wow. What are you doing here?" He sets my latte on the counter.

"I'm doing the lighting for a bad and this is one of our stops." I hate talking about myself.

"Oh that's so cool, what band?"

"Falling in Reverse, and Black Veil Brides."

"Huh, never heard of them." He sets down my coffee.

"Not many people have."

"Oh so you're a hipster?"

I laugh, "Oh god no! I'm more punk if you want to label me."

"Oh okay." He laughs. He has a sweet smile. "Oh hey Aiden." Did he say Aiden?

"Sup man?" He walks in and sees me. "Laci, it's been awhile." His smile is like cyanide.

"Wait you two know each other?" Tyler asks.

"Oh Lace and I go way back." he smiles at me.

"I-I've gotta go.." I rush out of the store. Tears are streaming down my face. He's really here! He's really here! I collapse on the sidewalk. No Lace not here. I stand on my shaky legs. I can't I can't. Yes you can. Just put one foot in front of the other... There you go.

When I get back to Andy's house, I sink to the floor the second I close the door. "Whoa, whoa, whoa Laci what's wrong?" Jinnx jogs over, and pats my back. "What happened? Can you talk?" I shake my head and cover my mouth so I don't scream. "Okay. Okay, shh. Deep breaths hun, deep breaths." I look at his face and see the sharpie make-up. I start laughing really hard. "What?" He smiles.

"Look in the mirror." I get out between breaths.

He gets up and walks to a mirror. "Oh my god CC!" He runs down the stairs, and I laugh harder.
