Glad All Over

Chapter 1

Your name is Anon, you're a really quiet guy in school and for some reason, most of the girls have a crush on you due to you being handsome or something, you can't remember. But there was this one girl who was the talk of the town, being the most beautiful and most popular girl in school. Her name is Rarity. However she does not seem to notice you and both of you never even spoken with each other before. Well, time to get your mind off that. School is out for at least two months and you lay on your bed lazing off and thinking about life, it was three days after school had ended. Then it hit you, Two months of just lying on the bed doing no shit? I can do better than that! You were obviously not going to ask for money from your parents because you are already 19 and you don't want to look like some sort of brat. You needed to earn your own money, this holiday was a chance for you to do it. You needed a job.

Just as you were thinking of what Part-time jobs you can apply for, your phone rings and you look to see that your schoolmate Dion is calling you. You answer the call.

"Hey Dion, what's up?

"Everything's great, Anon! Anyways, I was just calling you just to let you know that I found myself a job at a pub as a bartender near CHS!"

Being a bartender was never my style...

"Congrats man! I feel great for you. You should enjoy your job if you really liked it!"

"Thanks bro! By the way, the boss is looking for musicians to jam at the gigs here. He is willing to pay about $100 an hour. You interested?"

This is your chance!

"You just saved my ass man, sure! Of course! Its about time I earn my own cash."

"Well you wanna sign up today?"

"Heck yeah!"

"Great! Meet me outside that cafe where we used to drink."

"Right on!" you said, before changing in to your casual white top and blue jeans and quickly made your way to meet up with Dion.


So when you went to the cafe, you spot Dion waiting and you went to greet him. He shook your hand and signaled you to follow him. Both of you walked to the back alleyway of a building which just as Dion said, close to CHS, where you studied. Then he opened the door and both of you entered. When you entered, you were stunned at how amazing and beautiful the place was.

Wow... I never knew this place even existed.


Dion handed you a slip of paper, then said.

"Fill it up, then enter that room at the left corner beside the toilet."

With that, he left to prepare for work.

You fill up the form, which only needed your full name, phone number and your ID number. Then went to the door on the left corner beside the toilet, then you knocked, asking for permission to come in.

"Come in!" a rough voice said.

You enter and spot a middle aged man sitting on his desk lighting a cigar. He gives you his hand signal, indicating you to sit down. You sat and gave him the form you had early filled up. He looks at the form for about what almost feels like 10 minutes. Oh c'mon! Its just a form that just has my name, phone number and id number on it! Jeez...

Then the boss looked to you and asked, "Do you know how to sing?"

You replied "Yes sir, I do."

"Do you know how to play the guitar?"

"I do"

"What kind of music do you listen to?"

"Well, mostly songs from the 50's to the 80's, I am not a really big fan of modern music."

"You're hired. You'll start in an hour. Try entertaining the customers with whatever you got."

"Thank you very much sir! I'll try my best."

With that, you walked out of the boss's room and thought to yourself: That wasn't so hard was it? You chuckle to yourself before Dion appears again.

"So did you get the job?"

"I sure did!" You reply.

"Awesome!

"I'll be practicing ya?"

"Alright mate, good luck!" he said before walking off to serve customers.

You walked to the mini stage facing the seats where people would be usually drinking. You start looking at the instruments and your jaw dropped when you saw that one specific electric guitar.

No way! Is that a freaking Gretsch 6120? No way! This was similar to the one Eddie Cochran had!

You were examining the beauty of this guitar when your eye caught something else at your right sighting. You are looking at a girl, definitely a waitress in this pub, with a long purple hair, smooth white skin and a purple skirt. Wait a second... Isn't that?

Yep, you were right. It was Rarity. Yet just like in school, she doesn't seem to notice you. So you decided to seek for her attention in an old fashion way like how your grandfather would do.

I have to impress her.

You plug in the electric guitar to the amp and tested out the chords you were about to play. You are now going to sing a sing called Be-Bop-A-Lula by Gene Vincent. Strumming the E7 chords a few more times and cleared your throat before beginning. (Which goes something like this.)

With that you end that song, Rarity was still staring at you, blushing before turning her head away quickly and walked away. Maybe you went too early with that...


Two hours have passed and you're at your final song, Summertime Blues. (Which goes like this.)

"Thank you all for being so beautiful and goodnight!"

With that, you bow to the people watching as you receive a loud and long applause and cheers from everyone as you made your way down the mini stage. Your boss seems impressed on the show you gave the people, he secretly hands over your pay which is $200 and told you to sleep well. $200 was good enough for you considering you never bought too many things.

"Dude! I never knew you could sing this well! That was the Bomb!" Dion said to you.

"Thanks Bro. By the way, I-" you were cut off by Rarity pushing you to the side of the wall.

"Anon... did I get the name right?"

"Y-yes?"

"I never knew you could play these types of music. The way you play your guitar is just fabulous!"

"Heh... Thanks I guess." you blush.

You try to walk away from her to get to Dion but you were stopped again.

"Fancy coming over to my place for a movie? We could grab some snacks too. It's a limited time offer!"

Shit! Shit! Shit! What do I do? Just do it... JUST DO IT!


"S-sure R-rarity. Why not?"

"Great darling! Let's go then!"

To Be Continued.
