"WATCH OUT!!!!!!" a boy calls, but I don't get out of the way in time. he smashes into me, knocking him off his skateboard and hitting the ground with me on top of him.
I stare down at his emerald green eyes. I didn't know eyes could be so green. Our noses just inches apart. I snap myself out of the daze his eyes have put on me and sit up.
"I'm so sorry." I apologize embarrassed.
"Oh,no. It's not your fault. I ran into you." he says brushing his pants off and getting to his feet.
"Here. Let me help you." he offers holding out his hand to me.
"Thanks." I respond taking it. once I'm up again and dusting myself off awell, I recognize him.

Saturday I had taken Stormfly for a walk down the block as an excuse to get out of the new house.
I turned off of my street on to Ravenpoint. That's when I heard a faint hum coming from a little ways down the road. I decided to follow it our of curiosity.
The closer I got, I realized it was music. I notice several people standing around a garage as they nod their heads and tap to the beat. I squeeze past people to get a better look.
"Alright, alright. Thank you." a boy center stage says calming down the cheering crowd. "This last one is one of our newest. I hope you guys like it." the boy adds as he swings his red guitar to the front, grabbing the neck with his left hand. He waits for the clapping to die down then nods at the boy sitting behind the drums. The other two members are girls.
One with waist length blond hair holds a pinkish-purple guitar, the other a frizzy redhead standing at a keyboard.
"This song is called 'Immortals'." the boy adds before the music begins playing.

They say we are what we are
But we don't have to be.
I'm bad behavior but I do it in the best way.
I'll be the watcher (watcher) of the eternal flame.
I'll be the guard dog of all your fever dreams.

Oooooooh
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass)
Oooooooh,
I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long.
And live with me forever now,
You pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long.

Because we could be immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals.

Sometimes the only pay-off for having any faith
Is when it's tested again and again everyday.
I'm still comparing your past to my future.
It might be your wound but they're my sutures.

Oooooooh
I am the sand in the bottom half of the hourglass (glass, glass)
Oooooooh,
I try to picture me without you but I can't

'Cause we could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long.
And live with me forever now,
You pull the blackout curtains down
Just not for long, for long.

We could be immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,

Immortals,
And live with me forever now,
Pull the blackout curtains down,

We could be immortals, immortals
Just not for long, for long.
We could be immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,
Immooooooo- immortals,

I am absolutely stunned when they finish. The crowd cheers and hollers as the band members come to the front of the small stage linking hands, raising them above their heads.
"We are the Big 4!" The shout.
"Thanks for coming out everyone. Till next time." the lead singer calls. The people make their way out, dispersing as the garage door closes behind us.

" Hey, I've seen you before. I saw you playing on Saturday. I stopped and watched for a bit. You're an amazing singer." I tell him.
He blushes, rubbing the back of his neck with his hand. His freckles becoming more prominent.
I look over the cloths he has on. He is wearing a black vest over a dark grey hoody, which he has cut holes in the sleeves for his thumbs to poke out. a black t-shirt with a band on it I've never heard of printed on it, a dark green belt, tight black jeans with rips at the knees, and that gather some at the bottom slightly covering his Chuck Taylor's.
" I wouldn't say I'm amazing, but thanks." he says. He straps his skateboard to his back pack and repositions his dark grey beanie on his head, his auburn hair sticking out from under it.
"You know, I don't think I've ever seen you around here before." he says looking at me again."yeah, I just moved here last week." I respond shyly, brushing my bangs out of my eyes.
"Well, welcome to BERK." he adds extending his arms, then letting them drop to his sides again.
"Are you on your way to school?"
"Y-yeah." I stutter trapped in his eyes. I've never seen someone so beautiful. Wait...What? What is happening to me? 'Snap out of it Astrid!' I scold myself. I change the subject.
"Um... was that your dog that just ran by?" I ask.
"Oh. Shoot!" He says putting his hands on his head.
"Do you want me to help you look for him?" I offer.
"Actually, that would be a big help." he says giving me a lopsided grin.
It's the most adorable smile I've ever seen. 'Stop it Astrid!' A boy like that most definitely has a girlfriend. and even if he doesn't, there would be no way he would ever want to go out with me.
I smile back and we take off in the direction we saw the lab take.
