Twylish's POV

It wouldn't be what I call a lovely day if my crush ignores me most of the time. Yeah you heard me right. Crush.

No need to guess, but I think I got feelings over Percy. Other than his cute looks, he's also really... Attractive to me. I found out I like him cuz I got jealous when I thought he wanted to go to prom with McKenzie.

Why did he ignore me? I have no idea. He just walked off without a smile or a wave, which pissed me off, so I sat down glumly at my seat. Then I remembered I still haven't practiced my solos yet.

"Why do you look so glum?" Julianne asked, snapping me out of my thoughts.

"School stuff?" I shrugged. "The boy I like ignored me all of a sudden."

"Ooooohh~ Someone's in lurrrrrve~" she sang.

"Shut up." I smiled, slapping her lap playfully.

She laughed. "Okok fine! Just don't give up." She smiled.

"Thanks Julianne." I smiled back.

That was when Mart appeared at the front of the room and told us all to get ready. I flipped to the correct piece, placed my phone on my lap and lifted my violin, ready to play. Mart waved his baton and the orchestra started playing, and I let myself sink into the depths of the music.

~Break~

I scrolled my Instagram and sighed. The network doesn't work here, and there is no free wifi at this kind of place, so the posts weren't updated yet. Huffing, I unwillingly took out my book. I'm not in the mood of reading right now.

Just as I flipped to the marked page, I heard I joyful tune of a xylophone grime behind me. I turned to see Percy playing the xylophone by himself with the.. Sticks...? Something like that.

The tune was wonderful. His concentrated face is really... hypnotizing. After staring at him for a while, he must've felt me staring, so he stopped and stared at me through his lashes. My eyes widened with fear, being caught staring was never a good thing. Feeling my cheeks redden under his gaze, I quickly turned around again and pretended to have been really busy this whole time.

The music started again. I didn't dare turn to look, but stopped and listened to it. Hearing him play is the best thing I've felt all day. My heart fluttered, and I felt the butterflies in my stomach trying to escape out of me.

"Twyla?"

I jumped, and slowly turned around to see Zack standing behind me.

"Um.. Yes...?" I asked uncertainly.

"That guy." He nodded at Percy. "Likes you." He pointed at me.

I spluttered. "What?!"

A/N
