"Hey Brooke, look I'm really sorry for how Missy treated. It wasn't right, and I should have stood up for you." said Austin, while looking to the ground from guilt.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it" I replied. Surprised, he looked up.
"Really? I don't see any reason why someone would bully you." question Austin.
"Well it's been happening since forever, for some reason Missy's never liked me," I stated.
"Oh." he replied quietly.
"So I've got to get going..." I said
"Oh yeah, sorry, see you around" said Austin. With that he turned back towards the school and walked away. When I got home, I logged onto my computer.
Maybe watching some YouTube videos would calm my mind. After a while, I started to search the popular hits of 2015, seeing as I don't listen to much music. When one song caught my attention. It was "What Do You Mean" by Justin Bieber.
I never really liked his music, but when I heard this song, I don't know, something in side me felt something. I never really tried out the whole "music" thing because that's all anyone ever wanted to do, and it didn't feel special.
I ran upstairs, and grabbed a blank notebook. All night, and morning I spent trying to write a song. Finally around 12 pm, I finished it. Was it really good enough to make a video and post it on YouTube? I thought.
Probably not, but honestly who would care. After recording it, I sat back a listened to it. Well, I'm not that horrible, I thought. I posted it.
Finally noticing the time, I headed to bed not even caring I skipped school today.

The next morning, I woke up to my alarm. Getting off the bus, everyone kept starring at me and whispering. Well just a normal day this is, I thought, and scowled as I headed for class.
*Skip School*
When I got home, I logged onto my computer. All of a sudden it blew up with notifications. That video I had posted had more than ten thousand views.
Screaming, I dropped my laptop. Are you kidding me, was all that repeated in my mind. I went and checked the comments, to my surprise the majority was good responses.
I got a lot asking me when I was going to post another video. I went to respond to the computer and say,
"Sorry, I didn't realize that so many people would actually like this, but I'm probably not going to make any more videos. It was just a 'in the moment' kind of thing."
With that, I logged off, and went to bed.
