Amberlean POV

 I woke up outside on the dry grass my lips are dry and my stomach roar I sit up from the tall grass and realize that I was out here for my punishment. I get up and walk to my house and I enter by going into the back door and I creep in my auntie was sleep on the couch with a half drunken beer  in her hand and a cigarette in the other. I slowly crept to the stairs and went into my empty room. Well, I had a little bit of stuff but not plenty I didn't have a bed or a TV my own personal bathroom. All I had was a closet and a window with a bowl that have my liquids in it and a mat on the ground with a bucket filled with water. I sigh to my understandings and I go to my closet and find something to wear for school today I look at my closet and I finally pick out an outfit it was a pink short dress with some flowers on the top and I put on some flats pack my bag and put my hair in a braid on the side and I don't wear makeup but I did  put on some strawberry chap stick. After i apply some chap stick on my lips i grabbed my phone off the ground. Yes, i do have a phone my mom gave it to me when i was 15 but i barely use it because i barley have friends the  only people on my contact is my mom, my auntie, and Jake. Jake is the most understanding person i know he takes care of me like im his sister i have been friends with him from the begin i know nothing can brings us apart. As i walk down stairs and out the door i locked it. Then i continue walking down the long sidewalk and sing to myself i do not love to brag but i do think i have a inserting voice my mom said i get it from her. At our school we have choir i go their but i don't like to be in front all i know is that they will laugh at me so i been singing up to be the backup singers. While, i was walking i look at my phone i was a little early, so i had plenty of time to go over my lyrics so i went by the big tree and went farther down in and found this open place i went down and sat on the ground with my my bag i pull out my notes and started to find where i begin and i start to sing from the first verse:


I open my eyes

I try to see but I'm blinded
By the white light

I can't remember how?
I can't remember why?
I'm lying here tonight

And I can't stand the pain
And I can't make it go away
No, I can't stand the pain

How could this happen to me?
I've made my mistakes
Got nowhere to run
The night goes on-



i was interrupted by music and it flows with the beat of the melody i turn my focus behind me and i see a handsome boy with dark brown hair that sits on the side of his face and his poster is on point. He have a guitar in his hands and he plays with my song and he sings part of the song:


  As I'm fading away

I'm sick of this life
I just wanna scream
How could this happen to me?


When the man finishes his melody i stair at his blue eyes and i couldn't move so i did the most logic thing that any girl would do and.....RUN i grab my bag and quickly scrambled my papers in my hands and i try to run but my lyrics been blown away and the handsome boy catches it before it blows away. I stop dead in my tracks. Looking at him and he looking at me.  To end the silents he looks over the lyrics and nodded his head and speak ''You have an amazing voice''. I could feel my cheeks lit up did he compliment me, but why? Wait, this is one of of those dumb tricks now someone is going to pull my hair or lift my dress up. I turn around to see nothing but grass. Then my focus goes back to the man and he smiles. Why, why, why ,why that was going through my head. ''um- Thanks, well i have to be heading to school now''. I reach for my paper and the boy replace it with his   hands and shakes mines. ''Hi, my name is Brent and you are?''. should i answer or just leave. Well, i did exactly and toke my paper and said ''My name is Amberlean, goodbye''. Then i turn and left while i was walking i could hear him chuckling and cool breeze came to my legs. Ugh i knew it he just wanted attention so i turn around and gave him a hair swift then left. I hear him laugh even louder. When i get up to the school the name Brent sinks in. I nod to myself ''um, Brent''.
