y/n pov

"but anyways, yeah he's the reason i sing and play an instrument." "you play what exactly?" i shrugged, "that's my secret weapon, loser." "oh haha you're sooo cool" i smiled, "i'm aware. but it's honestly better that he's out of my life. a lot of traumatic shit went down so." "i'm so sorry y/n you never deserved any of that." i smiled and a tear ran down my face. he wiped it and his hand was on my cheek. we looked each other in the eyes and he leaned closer. then greg walked in and we both looked at him, rodrick dropping his hand.

"guys dinners rea- was i interrupting?" i shook my head. "no it's fine i was crying because i fell and i'm dramatic. you know, girl problems" he laughed and nodded and we all went and had dinner. "so rodrick i heard you have a date to come on your next gig" his mom spoke. he smiled and my face went red. "yeah ha." i kept eating "can we meet her?" so they don't know who... what would they think of me going? "oh you've met her before." my eyes darted to him and greg laughed. rodrick nudged me, "drama queen here my date." my face went bright red and susan smiled at me "aw we always thought you'd end up with greggy. that's sweet though. your first date. my babies are growing up too fast" her smiled warmed the room and i felt like i was going to die. goddamnit rodrick you really had to tell her. after dinner i went up to greg's room with him and we worked on some homework. after we finished i walked over to rodricks room and knocked a few times before letting myself in. he was sitting on his bed with headphones in and i sat next to him, making him jump. "so your parents know about our date?" he nodded "when is it again?" "a week from today, you're gonna sing?" i nodded.

the days went by as a usual week and weekend. this weekend was the last the pool was open so we decided we'd go tomorrow morning. it was six pm and the gig was at nine so i had time to get ready. i showered and shaved and then got out and blow dried my hair into a poker straight look. i put on a pair of black ripped high waisted jeans and a cute crop top. i put my leather jacket over it and slipped my boots on. i did eyeliner and mascara. then it was eight. rodrick said he'd pick me up around eight fifteen, so i tried to calm down by having a pep talk in the mirror. "you can do this, you won't fuck it up, you'll do great. you've got this grunge goth hot girl vibe and rodrick will totally dig it."

i walked downstairs and hugged my mom goodbye before going outside to see rodricks van waiting for me. i hopped in the back because greg was already up front. "not much of a date when you bring your brother and make your date sit in the back now is it rodrick?" i very boldly, kissed his cheek and sat down "yeah well he blackmailed me as always." i laughed and we drove for way too many minutes before getting there. rodrick went in and i stood in the crowd with greg and we were really close. i loved spending time with him but it'd be cooler when i was singing. it was weird, they were all older than us, so we were the odd ones out. but i didn't mind. i loved singing and wanted to prove something to anyone who questioned my abilities.

they played a few songs and then Rodrick grabbed the mic. "alright lady's and gents i have a very special announcement well question?" he looked at me "y/n will you come up here?" i walked up, embarrassed as hell and he took one of my hands. "will you be my girlfriend?" my eyes went wide and i stood, speechless. "well.." i rolled my eyes, "yeah obviously." i laughed and he hugged me while everyone cheered. "alright now let's get you started" he handed me the mic and sat back down. then they started playing my favorite song. i began to sing the lyrics, peoples attention stuck to me. the audience cheered and we kept going.

i jammed out and everyone cheered even louder. i walked around the stage while singing with the guitarist. then up to rodrick and leaned on his head now my solo part. greg cheered the loudest and i walked back up front. we finished the song and i smiled at everyone. i completely forgot about my stage fright. rodrick really helped me out of this one. we played a few more covers and then i went down so they could finish up. i stood with greg and we listened to them "soo your rodricks girlfriend now?" i smiled "i guess so?" "y/n he only wants to use you. please be careful." i nodded "i trust you but i've liked him forever and it's finally going my way. just, let me try it okay?" he nodded and shrugged. "i'll be here for you always, don't forget it shortie" "thanks greggy." we laughed and soon the concert finished. when rodrick came down he put his arms around me from behind and placed his head on mine. "so losers, taco bell?" "uhh obviously!" we spoke in unison. 

after we cleaned up a bit we headed to get dinner. it was midnight and we were starving. this time i was in the passengers seat and i got some nachos and a slush. it was surprisingly good but i was just happy to be with rodrick. when we got home greg got out and went inside. i looked at rodrick, "girlfriend huh? pretty serious. what changed?" "what do you mean?" "well last year you wanted nothing to do with me, for gods sake you called me your little sister. i was humiliated. also you were always so mean to me. oh, and always made fun of me and greg." he laughed "for good reason, you guys are inseparable. and you did kiss him." "wrong! he kissed me!" he laughed at my words even more. "well he was your first kiss?" i nodded "want an even better experience?"

"wha-" he leaned close and pulled my chin up and looked me in the eyes. suddenly our lips crashed into each others and it was like fireworks booming. i was so overjoyed in the moment i didn't know what to do. after he let go my eyes were wide and he smirked "seeya tomorrow morning pretty lady. goodnight" i nervously got out and walked home. i went inside and my mom was passed out on the couch. i smiled and went up to my room. i face planted on the bed and passed out. what a great day.
