I'm standing in front of you

Back here again

(AN) I'm meant to be doing homework but I thought I'd write this instead.

Evie (POV)
Like I said before... I hate waking up and stupid me forgot to close the curtains so I'm being blinded by blistering sunlight. A loud groan escaped my lips and I literally rolled out of bed onto the hard floor. I leaned up on my arms, slowly bringing my legs forward until I was able to stand up. Sluggishly walking over to my wardrobe, I grabbed blue skinny jeans and a tank top. Pulling them onto my aching body was even harder when I didn't want to leave my bedroom. I pulled my hair into a big, messy bun with a plait around the bottom and then added a little make up. Pulling my mounds of bracelets on to cover my scars and slipping my Vans on and grabbing my bag that had my phone, purse, keys and other random stuff, I was leaving the house.

I jumped into my car and started the engine. I was off to the little coffee shop. When I finally arrived, I saw one other car in the parking lot, which I found funny because it's a Monday and everyone is either at school or work. Oh well. I dragged my feet into the mall and to the coffee shop,where I found Josh Dun leaning up against the wall
'You're late' he said so I could hear him
'I'm not late, everyone else is simply early' I replied with a grin. I saw a slight grin tug on his lips but he wiped it off pretty quick. I unlocked the door and Josh practically ran to the back table. I made his drink and wrote 'smile' on it. Walking over to him, I nearly tripped over a chair leg but regained my composure. I placed the cup down and held out of my hand
'3.50$' I quietly asked. He pulled out a 5$ bill and placed it softly in my hand
'Thanks. I'll be back with you change in just a minute' I said with a smile. He shook his head
'Keep the change' I nodded my head solemnly and walked off.

A few hours into my shift, Josh was still sitting in the same position (refer to the included picture) and hadn't touched his drink. I had a battle with my brain but decided that I should go over to him. I slowly trudged over and sat opposite him
'Is this all you do all day?' I questioned with genuine confusion riddled in my voice. He snapped his gaze towards me and when he saw me looking back at him, his facial features softened. He tapped his fingers
'Pretty much, it's quiet' he replied with a slight smile. I nodded my head.
'Do you like doing any other things?' I questioned once again. He let a laugh out
'Besides girls? Then no' he replied once again with a laugh.
'Okay too much information there buddy' I laughed. He looked at me and I saw a hint of sadness in his eyes. When he noticed that I was looking into his eyes, he looked away as if he knew I could read straight through him. He looked back at me
'What do you want anyway?' He asked in a harsh tone. I was took back by his sudden tone
'You looked lonely so I thought I'd come over to you' I said while standing up. He grunted in disapproval so that was my time to leave. I slowly walked away and was nearly pushed over by a 5'5 body... Him. I sighed. How can I get to know him?

--------------------
I got home around 6 and decided to watch Ghost Adventures. My phone chimed and I looked over to see who it was
'Sorry about that earlier'-Josh
'I was only trying to help'-Evie
'I know... Sorry... I'm not used to it'-Josh. With that last message, I ignored him.
I got pretty sick of watching Ghost Adventures so I turned my record player on and Twenty One Pilots started playing

I must've forgot, you can't trust me,
I'm open a moment and close when you show it,
Before you know it, I'm lost at sea,
And now that I write and think about it,
And the story unfolds,
You should take my life,
You should take my soul.
The words to the songs were so meaningful and perfect. Nobody knows the pain you go through. Except you.
