Chapter 1. Nightmares and Hairdye
I woke up in a cold-sweat, from the same nightmare that had haunted my dreams every night. I checked my alarm clock and groaned eternally. It was 6 in the morning. I sat up and stared at my darkened room. I clapped and the lights turned on. I grabbed my phone off the charger under my pillows.
I go to my music section and go to playlist. I hit early morning #2 playlist. It contains mainly 5 Seconds of Summer, The Vamps, Shawn Mendes, and Charlie Puth. It starts playing in the surround sound of my room and bathroom. I go through my Instagram feed, mainly looking at my friend London's Instagram. I laugh when I see her with a pic of her dog licking her on the nose.
I get on messenger and click on London's profile. I scroll through to the bottom of our messages.

I laugh as she leaves me on read. I get up and put on the laziest outfit I can find. I walk into the bathroom and brush my hair. I really need to dye it. I pull the brush through my brown hair.
I put the outfit on, and then some Nike slides. I grab my phone and pull up my text with my dad.
Bear🐻-
I am going to Starbucks with London.
Dad😍-
Okay, sweetie. Be home soon, I am Managing
A new group. I want you home before 10
Bear🐻-
Okay! What group?
Dad😍-
A boy-band called why don't we.
Bear🐻-
Hehe. Was "why not" taken?
Dad😍-
Really? That was horrible.
Bear🐻-
Shut up. I am leaving. Bye
Dad😍-
I love you. Be safe. Bye. ❤️
I laugh at my funny joke and walk out the door of our mansion. I put my earbuds in and walk to the Starbucks a couple of blocks away. I open the door looking for London, not seeing her I walk up to the counter. I look at the lady and she smiles at me.
" Do you want your usual, Mrs. Noah?" She said. I nod and pull out my wallet. I hear the door open, and wind rushes up to me. I feel something grab my bookbag. I see London standing next to me.
" Can I have a coffee? Ohh, and a Blueberry scone." The lady sighed. I put out a ten dollar bill and went to sit down. I raise my eyebrow in question as London sits in front of me and start squealing. She sighs.
" WHY DON'T WE IS COMING TO OUR TOWN! They're going to start living here, with their new manager. " She yells. I wince and cover my ears. She laughs then pulls my hand down from my ears. I pull out my phone and slide the phone over to her. She looks at my dad's text from this morning.
" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! They are going to be living with you! AHHHHH!" She screams then opens up a new note. She throws the phone at me. I sigh
I don't even know what they sound like. I write and she looks at it. She sighs. Our food rings and she drags me over to the counter. She grabs our food, then drags me out the door. I walked here, so she dragged me to her car. She opens the passenger seat and shoves me in. My face hit the seat, so it right myself, and give London a death glare. She laughs.
" I am sorry for running your head into the seat, but I have to go to the mall, and then I have a hair appointment at 8. I also have to be at your house by 10." I look at her and laugh. She takes the AUX cord and plugs it into her phone. She turns on her Why Don't We playlist, and starts to blare it.
" Text the girls. Tell them to come to the mall. I don't care if it's 6:30 a.m." She says yelling over the baring music. I pull my phone out of my back pocket. I open the group chat.
Ladies is hot-
Bear🐻-
Ladies. London wants you all at the mall. She doesn't
care that it is early.
Twin 1-
I don't
Twin 2-
Wanna.
Chameleon-
Let me SLEEP!
Bear🐻-
London told me to tell you Why Don't We is living with me.
And we should look our best.
Twin 1-
I'll be there soon.
Twin 2-
I'm in the car in my PJs
Chameleon-
Give me a couple mins.
Bear🐻-
See you soon.
I get off the group chat. I show London the phone as we pull up.
" I never told you to tell them that." I smiled, and we pulled up into the parking lot. We see a bunch of girls in front of the entrance. They are holding up signs for why don't we, and signs for us.
We park and get out of the car. Girls ran up to the car, asking for photos. We started walking, but then a bus comes pass, with the Why Don't We boys pictures on the side. The girls run after the bus, and we walk into the mall laughing.
" I love your dad, and I know he manages lots of famous people. But why do they show up every time we go somewhere." London asks. I shrug and see a bunch of girls running up to us. It's the twins and Cameron. The twins, Iris and Ivy, are wearing overalls. Cameron the youngest, is wearing an Adidas outfit.
Cameron/Cammie:
Twins:
London:
I hug the girls. We all start walking to the closest Nike store. We walk into the giant orange store. We head to the shoes.
" So why don't we are going to be living with you?" Ivy asks as she takes the pair of shoes I was looking at. I grab the shoes out of her hands and smack her wrist then nod. She laughs.
" Guy's come over hear. Noah here is salty." They run over. They look like they're dying of laughter. My face must mask Ivy's face of surprise. They show us my dad's Instagram account.

My new band, Why Don't We, comes to my house. And I met them like this.
We all start laughing. I walk to the corner, where Mr. Claus, was rearranging the volleyball stuff. Mr.Claus was the other car we ran into. His daughter was in the car with him. She died in surgery. Mr. Claus saved me when he shot the man about to kill me.
Mr. Claus became a close friend. He was like my uncle. He understands me even when I don't verbally say what I want. I tap his shoulder. He's an older man, in his 60's now. He turns around and his chocolate colored cheeks grew rosier. He pulled me into a hug, and I chuckled into his shoulder. He put me at arm's length.
" How is my favorite customer." I smile at him. He looks at me, then rubs my arms. He smiles kindly at me, but there is worry in his eyes. He knows my nightmares happen every night. He worries about me and how the nightmares affect me.
" They've been getting worse haven't they?" He asks. I nod my head, feeling the tears brewing in my eyes. He pulled me into a big bear hug and was rubbing my back. I pulled away and laughed.
" So I am going to take a guess at what you want today. So it's been awhile since you bought knee pads, so knee pads." He says grabbing a pair of blue Nike knee pads. I nod my head and grab the knee pads.
" And it's time for a new volleyball and soccer ball." I nod my head.
" And probably a new net for the soccer goal. Ohh, and new cleats." He says handing me a pair. I nod and laugh. The girls come over to drag me out of the store. I wave bye to Mr. Claus. I pay for my stuff and we walk towards the hair stylist. Her name tag says her name Sarah so we greet her and she brings us to the back of the shop where it has the sinks and she starts with Ivy and starts to shampoo her hair and then another worker grabs me by the arm and scares me. She brings me back to another sink.
" What would you like to do with your hair?" She says. I shake my head urgently, trying to tell her I wasn't going to do anything with my hair. She sits me in a seat. Rude.
" Y'all paid for 5 people to get their hair done. I will do your hair." She said. Iris runs up to us. She shows the lady a picture The lady nods. She turns to my chair. She turns my chair towards the mirror. Iris takes a picture, then runs off being called for her hair to be done.
" Your friend showed me what to do. You don't seem to talk very much. So I will do all the talking. My name is Olivia, and sorry if I seemed rude. You're the only person I have left today, and my boyfriend and I had an argument." She continues talking while doing my hair.
She is only a year older than me. She graduated high school in her Sophomore year and went straight to college. Now she's here and she is making a lot of money. She has been dating her boyfriend for a year, but she thinks he is cheating on her and she doesn't know what to do about it. She wants to check his phone but he won't let her. That's why she thinks he is cheating. She has no real friends. All of hers are fake and talk about her behind her back. She is depressed but cosmetology makes her feel happier. She tells me that she doesn't know what to do with her life.
I see the girls coming up to me. They stare at my head, and I get self- conscious. Then I see their hair and I stare in amazement. I hope my hair looks as great as theirs.
Cammie:
Iris and Ivy:
London:
Olivia has the girls take a picture of my hair. I realize that they had actually cut my hair. It feels lighter. They finish taking pictures. Olivia squeezes my shoulders then spins my chair around I gasp in surprise.
Noah:
(A/N The blonde part, not the brown)
We all start laughing at my surprise. I pick up my phone. I give Olivia my number. I take a picture and send it to dad. We walk out the store, and out the mall. We laugh about the pic then why don't we boys posted on Instagram. We walk out the store and go to my house.
