Lucky Charm (Ally/You)

Ally's POV

The girls and I are currently in my home town of San Antonio, Texas for a show and to visit my family here. Man, I miss them so badly.

"Allycat, it's time for you to get your makeup done!" Normani says, poking her head through the curtains surrounding my bunk.

"Okay, I'll be right there." I reply. She nods and heads off, probably to hang out with the rest of the girls. I sigh and slowly leave the comfort of my bunk. Surprisingly, the makeup artist, Julie, was waiting in the back lounge. I trudge over wearing a plain t-shirt and a pair of black sweatpants.

"There you are, Ally. Are you feeling alright?" She asks.

"I'm fine." I say. She nods and leads into the venue towards the makeup room. When we get there, I see my outfit, picked out for me, hanging on a rack.

"Do you like it Ally?" She asks. I nod.

"Why don't you put it on?"

"Okay." I quickly change.

"Stunning Ally. Absolutely stunning." Julie compliments. I blush slightly, not considering myself pretty at all. She motions for me to hop in the chair in front of the large mirror, to which I oblige. After about fifteen minutes of applying different creams, powders, eyeliners, etc., the makeup artist steps back and I lay my eyes upon my reflection. I still see the same face, the face of Ally Brooke Hernandez.

"Thanks Julie; although, I better join the girls now." I say, cracking a smile. She nods with a wide smile. I stand up and walk to the stage for rehearsals. As I step on stage, Camila skips over and drags to my spot with a smile. One of the staff also hands me a mic and my in ears. I slip them on and the beat for Brave, Honest, Beautiful begins to play.

And you're beautiful, you're beautiful, girl

I smiled looking at other girls as the song ends.

Y/N's POV

"How are you today ma'am?" I ask the customer as I scan her items. What am I doing you ask? Well, I'm currently at work as a cashier, at the local supermarket, La Fiesta.

"I'm doing great, what about yourself?" She asks.

"Not too bad, would you like any bags?" I ask.

"Two please." She answers.

"Here you are!" I say, handing her the bags. She starts pack her groceries while I continue scanning. I finish scanning and compute the total.

"Ma'am, your total today is $143.76" I inform. She nods and pulls out her credit card. Just as I was about to complete the transaction, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I turn around to see my colleague and best friend, Andrea, and my manager, Steve, laughing at me.

"Sorry about that, Y/N. That was just too funny. Anyways, Andrea, would you mind taking over for Y/N? I need to speak to her in my office." Steve asks.

"Of course." Andrea replies.

"Thanks! Tom will be here at about 7:00 to take over, which is in about 6 hours." Steve says. Andrea nods and Steve and I head to his office.

"If you don't mind me asking, why are we heading to your office?" I ask, curious. He smiles warmly.

"I have your paycheque for you Y/N, as well as a surprise." He explains. I nod. We enter his office and he motions for me to sit down in the chair at his desk. He does the same and reaches in one of the many drawers of his desk and pulls out an envelope with my name on it.

"This is for you" Steve starts, before handing me the envelope and motioning for me to open it, "Go ahead, open it." He smiles. Inside, was a cheque for $5000 and two tickets for freaking FIFTH HARMONY!

"S-ste-eve. Wh-hat? H-how-w? W-why?" I ask, almost in tears.

"Y/N, you've done so much for the company. You've been one of our most trusted employees, always on time and willing to do so much for others. It's time I pay you back. I've given you a rise, you've earned it Y/N. As for the tickets, your friend Andrea told me that you love Fifth Harmony, so I also got you two front row tickets to see them tonight."

"Thank you so much!" I say, breaking down in tears. 

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed this chapter!
