Music

Part 4

Luke grabbs my hand rushing over to a ride called Flash, I think it's named after the superhero Flash but it was just a guess. The lines were a decent size apparently teens rarely go to these anymore. Luke is forced to sit in the inside and I on the outside. The ride was spinning and spinning until I was dizzy but we laughed so much our stomachs began to ache. My body was pressed so tightly against Luke's it was kind of awkward but I pushed the thoughts away reminding myself that he was just a friend introducing me to the town. I realized the ride was going backwards and Luke's large body was shoved against me. We laughed and laughed until the ride finally slowed and we got off.

He forced me onto several more rides some of them were even for smaller children. The one I regretted the most was the sky rocket, It took you to the top and dropped you to the bottom. My stomach felt like it was stuck in my throat. Luke had the biggest smile on his face still after screaming our heads off. Finally it was time to leave and I had so much fun. I doubt Ashton would have liked to hear that I went to a fair with his friend not inviting him. Luke was interesting and hot, but friendsship always worked better for me than relationships did. I didn't want to ruin anything.

"Thanks so much for doing this, It's nice to know there's more to do around here than hang around at the church."

"Anytime Irwin Anytime. So what's with you and that church. Are you some overly religious person? Or do nun's just really interest you?"

Luke cracks a smile." No, on religion. Never really been intrigued by that. Honestly It's kind of embarrasing so I can't tell you, I'd love to tell you just another time maybe."

"Pweeeease, Nia Iwrin, share your dark embarrasing secrets with Luke the gatekeeper of secrets". I laugh turning my face to his as he parks infront of my house.

"Well, Luke hemmings", I pause opening the door and stepping out." I had a glorious time I hope you can say the same."

"I definetly can."

Goodnoght then, Drive safely."

I shut the door and walk through the grass. I can hear the sound of his car getting distant by the second. I open the door and I hear a gasp, the gasp of a woman to be more distinct. To be honest I didn't second guess my decision until I found my mother and father on the couch fully undressed burrying themselves into each other. With that I let out a high pitched scream and ran out side the house, down the sidewalks and out of the neighborhood. It disgusted me to even be near the house. Obviously I knew that my parents were having sex, there's no doubt about it, but shit don't do out in the open.

I sat at a bench in a small grassy area until I felt the vibration of my phone going off for the thousanth time. Thankfully it was Ashton, the one person I didn't catch doing it in living room.

"Jesus Nia where the hell are you at it's midnight?"

"You know that's a really good question. How long have you been home Ash?"

"About ten minutes why?"

"I caught them doing it in the living room."

OH.MY.GOD, KNOW WONDER YOUR NOT ANSWERING THEM... YOU PEOPLE ARE GROSS YOU HAVE A ROOM for A REASON. Where exactly are you Nia, I've gotta pick you up?"

"Uh, Youlington lane. See yah in a few"

The sun was shining bright in my eyes. I turn on my phone being blinded by the light. Two days ago I went to a fair with Luke and then found something that will forever scar my memory. I loosely curled my hair then began with the makeup. My oufit was just a simple Green day t-shirt,black jeans and creepers (they are my favorite shoes). After two episodes of Grey's Anatomy it was time to go. Luckily today was going to be a short day because school ended early today.

My first class was the most boring. I still hadn't made any other friends other than the three boys, I dont think I can even call them friends because I never saw them other than in second period and we never talk so no friends again. I guess I'm just really not as approachable as Ashton is. My homework was done and my grades were better than ever. I really had nothing to worry about except a scholarship and which college I wanted. Shoving my books into my bag I plugged my earbuds in and walked to my next class. I saw the boys before school but avoided them I wanted quiet and around them that was impossible. My chioce was the back of the classroom today. My eyes were shut and my mind was at peace until a small tap at my shoulder interupted me.

"That's my seat your in, so move."

"Can't you find another. It's not like your names engraved in it."

"I don't care if it isn't it's mine so scram moron."

My chair was thrown from under me, my books were scattered from my bag and I was on the floor all eyes on me. Small giggles erupted from the people behind me which soon turned into my whole class. I shoved my books into my bag and walked past the teacher then out of the school. My anger was uncontrolable the only thing that was stopping me from going back and punching her in the face was my sensitive side. Instead of doing any of that I just cried my way to the church. Music was my only sense of saftey in the world.

So I let myself in threw the back and made my way over to the piano. I wiped my eyes taking a deep breath and placed my hands over the keys. The first song that came to me was Moonlight sonata by Beethoven. It was slow but it revealed my emotions letting my thoughts get mixed in the sound being passed through the building. I played and played because I didn't feel the need to stop, because my fingertips never faltered or tired. My feelings kept the music going. My eyes were closed and I just listened to the music. Every note written blissfully, It sounded like a tragic lovestory.

I played until an applaud interupted me and scaring me half to death. My fingers came crashing down on the keys creating a unearthly sound. I turned to see the one and only Luke Hemmings with a huge smile plastered on his face. However I wasn't smiling I was absolutely horrified. This was supposed to be a secret no one was supposed to know about this. He continuse to walk down the aisle to me. With every step I became more anxious for what reason, I dont know. Finally he stopped walking and stood right in front of me.
