Our Little Secret

• Chapter 6-Pushing Limits •

"Ms.Allard.You play piano?"I nodded with a smile."Since I was a little kid,sir."He chuckled."Give it a shot,then.Go ahead."I placed my back pack on one of the chairs.Only then,I saw Adrien and that girl who tried to insult me last night,sitting there.

"Oh,hi."I greeted her and sat down in front of the piano keys."I don't have anything in mind,sir.Maybe a suggestion?"He went through his notebook and put on a piece I have never played.

However,I knew the piece next to the one he wanted me to play.So I started playing that one.It was Valse by Evgeny Grinko.I did not know that it was a piece in a school book such as this one.

In fact,I knew this song by heart,that at one point,I stopped looking to the book.However,it did not have a positive impact on me as I remembered who I used to play this with.Joe loved this too.

As the song came to an end,I stood up and sat down on the chair I had placed my bag on."That wasn't the piece I did ask you to play but well done,Ms.Allard."

"I appreciate the optimism."His gaze turned to the rude girl."Ms.Morgan.Take your turn.Then,we'll move onto Mr.Chevalier."

"Would it be a problem for you if I just read my book,sir?"He shook his head."I don't think so,Ms.Allard.Besides,Mr.Chevalier over here has a tendancy to only react when he is called out to.At least you won't be looking at your phone."

"Meaning,I can.Thank you."I turned back to the book we have for Literature.The Portrait of Dorian Gray.At one point,I got my pencil case out to highlight certain points and write my notes on the pages.

That is,until,I heard Adrien starting to play.My head whipped back to the seat I sat on before he started playing.I slowly closed my book and gave all of my attention to him and his piece.

I have never heard the song he was playing.Never.Although,he played it well.Incredible,actually.

"That is my boyfriend,whom you are checking out,Allard."I turned to Ms.Morgan."You said something?""I did.My boyfriend.Stay away."I shrugged."Ok?Do you expect me to congratulate you two or something?"

I turned back to the piano and how he played."Stop checking him out and go back to your book,you nerd.""Appreciating good music is a crime for you,I guess.Or you're just jealous of someone you shouldn't."

I sighed and smiled as I turned to her."Ms.Morgan,you don't know me.I hope,you will be able to refrain yourself from trying to come up with insults for me."I gave her an empathatic look.

"Seeing me competition is not about me.It is about you and you only.I tend to give great advice.If you want,you can knock on my door.You know where I live."

The class was over and I got my bag before leaving.

After we came to the common part of the classroom,where we were before we all went to our own classes,and teachers took attendance;we all headed to dinner.

"You going to sit with us?"I shrugged."I do not think so.I'm kind of not even allowed to talk to people besides my fiancé and his friends."

"Fiancé?How old even are you?""She's 13."Adrien caught up to me and Klaus as he was a no-show after the attendance."With Fiona?""She has a good head game.What can I say?"

"And you know her age because?"I sighed."We were in the same flight.We happened to sit next to each other.He is pretty arrogant,that friend of yours,Klaus."

"I already like her much better than you.Let go of that Morgan chick.She is unnecessarily possessive of you."I chuckled."Excuse me if I go too far but that 'Morgan chick' is by any chance the girl who tried insulting me twice in the last 24 hours?"
