Loving Quietly

Loving Quietly- Prologue

Ariel's POV

School. Pros:
•I learn a lot here, obviously.
•The music room is my safe haven.
•Eric. Sweet & sexy Eric.

Con's:
•Bullies & bullying.
•Fake bitches.
•Waking up way too early.

I look up at the bored, seeing my teacher, Mr. Holland, write down a slope formula. 'I learned this 2 years ago, why do we have to learn it again?' I look back down to my list & think of other pros and con's to this "hell hole". After what it felt like 5 seconds, the bell rings, signalling that its study hall or 'Ariel alone time'.

Oh I didn't introduce myself? Pardon me, my names Ariel May Waters, I'm 16, with looooong red hair. My eyes are an ugly blue & I have a bunch of freckles on my nose. I call myself a 'punk', but I'm very very smart. l'm very shy, but only talk to my two friends, Belle & Juliet. Also, I'm MADLY IN LOVE with Eric Sanders. He's so sexy, handsome, smart, athletic & talented. He's been my crush for 3 long, miserable years. Why can't he be mine?!
'Because you're ugly & quiet. He doesn't even notice you. You're an outcast, remember?'

I shake my head and walk to the music room, and relax. I pull out my music & try to think of more lyrics when I hear the door open. Turning around, I see that Juliet slips in quietly & smiles up at me. She's so pretty. Her long, wavy, brown hair going to her hips, her perfect, white teeth, her skinny but curvy figure & her bright, but beautiful green eyes. I've always been jealous of how gorgeous she is & how perfect she acts.

She walks up to the piano I'm sitting at and looks down at me then my sheet music.

"What are you writing? Are you finishing that older song or did you make a new one?" She asks me, confused.

"I finished the bold one a while ago, I just got bored a few weeks ago & thought of a catchy chorus. What's up?" I say back.

"I'm bored and Ms. Olsen isn't doing shit today so I didn't show up. But of course, Miss Belle did, even though I told her we weren't doing anything." She says.

"How do you know you guys aren't doing anything??" I question. She's not telepathic, right?

"Ben had her class before me, & she just cried & blabbed about her personal life again, ugh. She really grinds my gears." Juliet stated, pounding her hand on the top of the piano.

"HEY HEY HEY! This is really expensive, don't be pounding on shit that I enjoy & use everyday okay? But, that's why I didn't take her this year, fuck that hoe." I shout but calm down a little. Ms. Olsen never shuts up about her new divorcements & her children. Ugh she's bugs the fuck out of me.

"Hey, wanna chill at the mall today with me, Ben, Belle, & Will? I need to shop for more merch from Of Mice & Men, they made new shirts!!" She asked me.

"I can't, & you know that. My mom won't let me do anything until I get ungrounded." I tell her. I've been grounded for a few weeks now & she still doesn't remember.

"Oh yeah, I forgot, sorry. Wanna ride home at least? I miss my main bitch!" She says.

"That's fine, I'm down with that." I laugh.

"Welp, I gotta get going, I can only be in here for so long. I'll check you later gorgeous!" She says while walking out the door. I blow out the air I didn't even know I was holding in.

How am I going to tell her?
