Reading

chaperone

Chris’s face told me that he wasn’t. “Why not?” “He says that it’s trash music, and I should be spending my time listening to Mozart. Plus, he thinks it’s dangerous and we shouldn’t go without a chaperone.”

“Hey Chris, are you ready for the concert tonight?” I walked up to my best friend and punched him in the arm. “You’re not going to believe it,” he answered. “My dad won’t let me go.” “You’re joking,” I said in disbelief. But, the look on

Reading

sarcastically

“I don’t want you to miss the concert,” Chris said. “I bet we could find someone to buy mine.” “I don’t want to go without you,” I answered. I put my arm around him and shrugged, “Don’t worry about it, we can always go another time.”

“Dude, you’re 16. I think you can manage to go to a concert without getting lost,” I answered sarcastically Chris shook his head. “If only we had bought another ticket, I could have asked my uncle to go with us. He’s cool.” “We couldn’t afford to buy another ticket,” I said. “But now that we have two tickets, we should at least try to resell them or something.”

Reading

reckless

“I’ll sneak out. I can climb out the window and slide down the wall. I’ll meet you on the corner by the subway stop.” I thought about telling him not to do something so reckless. But I knew the more I argued, the more determined he would become.

Chris pushed my arm off of his shoulder and turned around with a determined look on his face. “You know what? I am not going to miss this concert just because my dad doesn’t like the music.” “What are you saying,” I asked. But I feared the worst.

Reading

venue

time. I got myself ready, checked that I had my keys and my wallet and my phone and set off to meet Chris a little before eight.

The concert venue was on the outskirts of town, in the big stadium where they played hockey. We could get there on the subway, but the trains stopped running at 2 am, so I made sure I had money for a taxi just in case the concert didn’t finish on

Reading

winding

Chris said while we looked at the lines winding all around the building. We got into the concert and made our way down to the floor, which was filling up fast.

On the train to the venue, we were packed in like sardines and by the time we arrived, we were both sticky, sweating and ready to sit down. We followed the crowd to line up at the doors. “I bet the concert is going to be even more crowded than the train,”

Reading

deafening

As soon as the music started, the crowd rushed forward. I was pushed sideways and separated from Chris. I tried to move back, but the crowd pushed me forward again.

The lights were dim and the roar of the crowd was deafening and the music hadn’t even started yet. While we stood waiting for the band to start, we were constantly pushed, stepped on and knocked into.
