ASH:
"Honey, can you go to the pet store for me? Your brother, wants a turtle for his birthday!" Your mom yelled out from the kitchen. You groaned as you got up and took the money she left out for the turtle. You went inside your car and drove to the pet store.
When you go there, you walked over to the turtle isle and started scanning which ones he might like. You felt a tap on your shoulder and turned around. You say a young looking man standing behind you and he was smiling big.
"Are you looking for a turtle?" He asks.
"Yeah, for my brother."
"I think you might like this one." He points to a terrarium with a baby turtle swimming in the water. You thought it was perfect because your brother loves swimming.
"Wow! That's perfect! Thank you so much!" You picked up the small terrarium and smiled at him.
"My name is Ashton." The man finally says.
"Im Y/N."
"We should hang out sometime."
"I would like that."

MICHAEL:
You waited in line at twelve o'clock pm at Best Buy* to finally get the new edition of Black Ops. You spent months gathering money just for this day. You hand your money in your pocket as you kept yawning.
"Tired?" You heard someone say. You turned around and saw this boy with red hair standing there.
"Yeah. Im not use to staying this late."
"Usually when I play video games, I stay up 'til three in the morning!"
"Wow you are really devoted. Im Y/N. What's your name?"
"Michael. So how about you and me play together sometime?"
"Alright cool! We definitely should!"

CALUM:
Working at the instrument/music shop was boring. The same people always visited wether it was to buy guitar strings or to enter a contest to win a Elvis Presley poster. You silently sat at the counter playing Flappy Bird on your phone when your heard the door open. You looked over your phone to see a new customer entering the shop. You turned off your phone and turned the music a little louder. The customer walked over to the desk you were sitting at and put a packet on there.
"Im returning my bass strings. I bought them from your website, but a week after I put them to use, they snapped!" He says. You carefully put the packet in a bin and you gave him a sympathetic smile.
"Sorry about that. The delivery people always get the orders wrong or they tamper with it. We usually advise people to get their things from her so it would be damaged."
"Oh. Im sorry. I should have known." You walked around your desk and on to a rack with a bunch of packets on it.
"It's okay." You handed him the packet as you gave him the receipt.
"Why is so cheap?"
"Let's say, personal discount." You winked at him.
"I bet you dont give those out often. Im Calum."
"Y/N."

LUKE:
You just sat on the bench as you silently cry. You just discovered that your boyfriend, Steven, cheated on you. He wasnt even sorry. Tears slowly dripped down your cheeks as you watch the sunset. You and Steven used to always watch sunsets, but now you are alone.
"Bad day?" You heard a voice next to you. You looked over and say a young looking guy sitting next to you. He had bright blue eyes and a piercing.
"Well, my boyfriend cheated on me. So, yeah, I guess." He wiped your tears off. His touch on your face was so gentle.
"Why dont I take you home. It's getting pretty late out." He suggested. You nodded as he led you to his car. The ride was silent. When he arrived at your house, you looked over at him.
"Thanks so much. Um, what is your name?"
"Luke Hemmings."
"Im Y/N thanks again."
"Just wanted this stranger to be safe.
