Fix A Broken Heart

Chapter. 5

{The photo is a picture of the clearing Luke remembers.}

Luke's P.O.V.

When I heard what that guy did to Riley, I was mad. Riley was upset. I can see it in her eyes. I was gonna hug her again, but the bell had rung. She walked away from me and got lost in the crowd of people. I hope she will be okay.

I tried to find Maya since I have this class period with her. Apparently we had an elective this period. I found her by her locker talking Dylan. I walked up and patted Dylan on the back.

"Hey Maya. Should we get to class?" I asked. I've never been late to class and I'm not gonna start now on my first day here.

"Yeah. Where is Riley? She has class with Dylan." Shoot. Riley ran off and I have no idea where. I need to lie for her.

"Well, uh.. she wasn't feeling well when I came after her. I told her to go to the nurse." I tried lying. But Dylan knows when I'm lying. But Maya doesn't.

"Okay. Dylan I really hope you don't get lost. But your class is down the hall. Um, first door to the left. You should see it right away. It's music so there would be instruments.

"Alright. Thanks Maya. Bye bro." Dylan patted my back and walked to class.

"We should get to class also. We got art." Maya lead the way to class. I loved art. Dylan had the talent of music. I had the talent of drawing. Mom and dad had loved that we were both creative.

Maya walked into a class full of paintings and drawings. It kinda looked like my room except this was much bigger. There were shelves full of art supplies and another shelf for canvases or papers. They had so many different colors. I already like this class.

We found seats towards the middle section of the class. The desk already had a couple of supplies on the table. The teacher walked in and started the lesson. She didn't notice me until the lesson was finished. Everyone was already working on their assignments. I still didn't know so I asked the teacher.

"Mrs.Hollis? I'm a new student and I'm not sure what we are doing?" She looked up at me with a warm smile. "I'm Luke. Luke Mckinley."

"Well Luke. My students are working on the future. The assignment is to draw a scenery that is special to us. It can be a place in our mind or a place in real life. It has to have a lot of details and it can be abstract." She explained to me. I already had a place in mind.

It's a special place. It's this small clearing where my parents used to take me. I remember going there and we would have small picnics. Now it's just a place in my mind. It's a memory. That place holds every memory with my parents.

I started painting. I painted as much detail as I could. I wanted to make it look realistic. I added a few other details to make it look like it was from my mind. I made sure the trees had texture. I painted as I was lost in my own world.

Once Ms. Hollis stopped so we can clean up, I was all done. Painting was passion. Art was my escape. Art runs in my blood.
