Yo peeps I'm back!

I walked home in a beautiful daze. Everything was shrouded in a shimmering golden mist, sound ceased to a minimum, and I walked a foot above the ground- I was so happy. All night, as I did my homework and chores and regular stuff, I couldn't stop thinking about Mitch. I was working on my chorus homework when I heard my phone vibrate.

Mitch: Hey Kirstin, this is random but I think you're really pretty😍

Me: Aww;) I think you're cute!

My chest was all warm and fuzzy when I got that message. The fact that me and Mitch were almost a couple was so exciting. I continued smiling as I turned back to my work. Thanks to the help of my fellow colleagues, my song was all done. I looked with satisfaction at the music and edits I finally finished. After working with La La Latch since the beginning of the chorus year, I had finally completed it! Clearing my throat, I decided to sing the whole thing.

...Coverin' my ears like a kid! Cuz when your words mean nothing I go la la la...

I didn't feel satisfied with my song when I was done. It seemed, well, boring. I felt like it needed a lot more of something, but what? Just my voice didn't seem like it would cut it.

I tossed that thought around my head while I finished the rest of my homework, which included the history of famous musicians, modern pop culture, sound recording software information and that jazz. I finished up around eight and decided to hit up my friends for help on my song because I was feeling desperate. Texting or waiting till Saturday wouldn't be enough! I then went on my phone cuz why not.

One by one, they all declined my invitation. Was no one seriously going to help me? Nobody seemed interested in coming over to help me, so I left the chat. Eventually I silenced my phone because it was just buzzing off the table with MEAT AND POTATOES texts.

AVI: MEAAT AND POTATOES x86 messages

Later, I was lying on my bed with my hand over my eyes, stressed from the music. I heard a knock on my door and looked up. My mom was there. "K, why don't you come out and eat dinner? You should take a break from your music."

"Ugh, mom! Something seems wrong about my song! I can't get it right!" I groaned, rolling over to face her. "And plus, no one's available to help me tomorrow!"

"Sweetie, I'm sure it'll be fine! You just need a break."

The growl of my stomach was unavoidable. I got out of bed and followed her to the kitchen. Between bites of rainbow lasagna, I described my situation.

We talked for a bit, then my mom suggested something. "Maybe you just need a few more voices to sing with you-"

My screen lit up and I glanced at my phone.

Mitch to NTVC Group Chat: hey Kirstin I can come over tmw to help u!

"Thank you soo much!!!" I yelled at to no one in particular.

My mom laughed. "Are you thanking me, the person who texted you, or that amazing lasagna I made?"

Ooohhhhh Kirstin and Mitch are gonna be all alone tmw! In Kirstin's bedroom! Wonder what they are going to do... *wink wink* Also does Avi really do yoga? Hmm...

Also I'm concerned I'm making this story way too long. Should o wrap it up soon or make it longer? Please review!!!
