I walked up to the college I was going to be at. Only 2 years, and then I'll be free.

(I'm pretty sure in the UK you have to go to college for 2 years, then University. Correct me if I'm wrong. But Y/n isn't going to University, just college)

I arrived at the office, where they gave me the classroom I was gonna be in for the school year. 

I heard the loud tapping of my feet on the marble flooring of the hallways, the empty hallways. Everyone had been in their classes, and there was me, the new student. 

I found the class I needed to go to, and I knocked on the door. A younger lady answered it. 

"Oh! You must be Y/n, welcome." She smiled opening the door more signaling for me to walk in. 

"I'm Ms. Bee, and it is free time right now, feel free to walk around the classroom and talk to the other students." She spoke walking back to her desk.

The tables in the classroom were put into groups of 4 seats. I looked around to take look at all the students in the class. Although one boy caught my eye. 

He looked me in the eyes. I felt a flush of embarrassment flow through me. Crap, he looked at me. I quickly looked to the floor, but he had already walked up to me. I hated talking to strangers, especially because I'm in a new country.

I looked up to him, he was much taller than me. His blue eyes shined with his blonde hair. 

He took another step forward and tilted his head, "Hey." 

"Hello." I replied looking straight into his eyes. We were extremely close and I didn't know what to do.

"What's your name?" He asked, but I just stared at him. Not saying a word. He smiled taking a step back.

"I'm Tommy." He winked and turned around walking back to his desk. I felt my face turn to a light shade of pink. Who was this boy?

I decided to sit in the seat across from him. I could feel his eyes on me, but I ignored it. I turned on my phone and scrolled through Instagram for a little bit.

"Alright class, free time is over. Please sit back down." Ms. Bee announced

Everybody took a seat at their desks. Since there were 4 seats at the table I was sitting at, one person sat next to me and another sat diagonal from me.

I was working on a math worksheet and decided to look up to the blonde boy. He also looked up to me, our eyes locked for a second. I quickly looked back down to my paper and I heard him chuckle as I continued doing my work.

Time Skip

The bell rang.

"Alright class, schools over. See you all tomorrow." Ms. Bee announced (A/n at school they are in one class for the whole day.) 

Everyone picked up their books and stuffed them into their bags, I did the same. 

I walked through the hallways of the school, looking down to the floor so I could avoid any contact with anyone. 

I finally made it out of the school and started walking home. As I was walking home I felt like I was being followed, so I walked faster. 

I jumped to a tap on my shoulder. I turned around holding my house keys as a weapon. 

"Relax, it's just me." Tommy said. I put down the keys and turned back around, continuing to walk to my house. But he ran up to me.

"Hey hey hey." 

I turned back around to see what he needed.

"Hm?"

"Hi." He said

"Hello." 

"Sorry, I didn't mean to startle you." 

"It's fine, but your lucky I didn't have my pepper spray on me. You probably would be crying." I laughed, he smiled.

"Can I walk you home?" He asked

"Uh, sure I guess." I replied

We walked quietly beside each other. No conversation. Just the sound of our shoes hitting the floor. 

"Well, this is my house." I spoke and we stopped walking. "Oh, well my house is a few blocks down, kinda far. " He spoke smiling. 

"Do you live alone?" He asked, I nodded and started walking to my front door.

"Wait." 

I turned around to see what he needed

"Uh, you never told me your name earlier."

"Y/n." I replied, continuing to walk to my front door.

I walked up to my room and flopped on my bed. 

Now remember that I have to finish my song. 

I had already written a few songs, some of them got really popular on YouTube and Tik Tok. I walked up to my window and opened it letting the cool air flow in.

Looking around my room I spotted my corner with my ukulele, guitar, and piano. I picked up my guitar and grabbed my sheet of paper. The song I was currently working on was called Seasonal Depression. I had written it because of my life when I was 14 years old, before I moved to the UK and I absolutely hated my life.

A/n 

If you did not read the info page you probably should. But just in case, Y/n is a songwriter and pretend the songs that she sings are hers, not someone else's. Hopefully that made sense.

I started strumming my guitar and sang while reading off the paper I had written on.

"I just don't see a whole lot of sun"

"And lately I just can't seem to have any fun
I look outside my window
It's so dark, I feel my eyes begin to close"

"Seasonal depression's
Got me sleeping off the days
And I've wasted all my time feeling grey
When the sun peeks out I sit outside
To bask in my tiny bit of the light
To warm, the cold that I feel inside"

"I'm locked up in here
With the rain coming down
Trying to fool myself
To lift up my frown
But a cup of tea and a nap
Don't solve my problems"

"I don't like LA
'Cept for tacos and Venice
But god, I would move
Get some rays and play tennis
And tell my lyft driver
To turn up the volume"

"Seasonal depression's
Got me sleeping off the days
And I've wasted all my time feeling grey
When the sun peeks out I sit outside
To bask in my tiny bit of the light
To warm, the cold that I feel inside"

I paused for a moment looking at the blank lines on the paper. What would go next in the song? Eventually after writing more lines, I knew how the song would end. I started singing again.

"We're all just trying to get by
Searching desperately for bits of blue in the sky
Sometimes it's hard to wake on up
It takes more than loads of coffee in your cup"

"Cause seasonal depression's
Got us sleeping off the days
And we've wasted all our time feeling grey
When the sun peeks out we sit outside
To bask in our tiny bit of the light
To warm, the cold that we feel inside"

I stopped singing and took a deep breath. I was going to record my song and post it tomorrow. Putting down my guitar I laid back in bed and closed my eyes.

A/n

That took a while to write, hopefully you liked it. Also here is the song that "Y/n totally wrote" shhhh
