TUNES

ONE: THE BLINK OF DARKNESS

It's a new day, end of summer, the beginning of the second semester.

I just got admitted to caveroop highschool in caveroop town, what a weird place, but it was the only place that accepted me anyways.

I stood at the school entrance, dressed in black jeans, a blue T-shirt, and blue sneakers. The school was big and a bit old fashioned. I breathed in and out and put on my head phone, took my luggages out of the taxi and went in.

It's a new day, in a new school, in a new town, with no familiar faces.

How bad can this get?

At least my past has no way of haunting me here.

It feels like I'm on a different planet.

What better place to start over than in a new city where nobody knows your name?

Down the hall, the tune of the music was really starting to get into my head as I began to walk to the vibe before I bumped into this guy...

Average height, with a fair complexion and broad shoulders, you could see the line of his chest through the T-shirt he wore. His lips were well-shaped and pink in color. I noticed a deep dimple on his cheek when he smiled at me.

"Hey, you okay?" His voice was not too deep like men of his stature.

I got up, picking up the things that were scattered on the floor before he could. I hung my headphones around my neck and smiled to appear calm and welcoming.

"I'll be fine"

He stared at me for a while before asking
"New here?"

"Yeah,"

"Well then you better head down to the hall, they're having an orientation, it's going to be long and boring" he said and I chuckled "else you wanna escape with me, let me give you the early tour of our campus" He smiled, which brought out his beauty.

I could see his blue eyes hiding underneath his brown hair.

"What ya say?"

"Erm... Thanks but since I'm new here, I kinda want to attend the orientation" I said with a smile.

Surprised, he looked at me weirdly,
"You know, alot of people would agree to the chance of escaping orientations but you..." He scoffed "You seems interesting"

Oh No!

That's how my nightmare started back in Oxville, I'm not going to let it happen again.

"I hope not"

I was about to walk pass him before he held me back,

"Leaving so soon? Come on, at least let me know your name"

"I'm Terra" I replied "Terra Tunes"

"Oh, double T, mind if I called you double T?"

I scoffed,
"Call me whatever you want" and I left for the hall.

The hall was huge and filled with many students. I swallowed hard and walked in. I took a seat next to a girl who looked unusual.

She stared at me for a while, I just tried to avoid eye contact before the principal came out to address us.

After the long, boring speech, we all retired to our dorms. I have to admit, the dude was right, the orientation was dull.

I walked through the different rooms in the girls' hostel, our names were on the doors of each room.

I saw my name on one door, and underneath it was another name: Pink Spencer.

I opened the door and walked in.
