The Art of Music

The New Kid

Eren's POV

"So you will all be getting into groups of two for the project you will be doing..."

I'm in science right now. We are supposedly going to be researching something and are going to come up with our own experiment or something. I wasn't really paying attention while the teacher spoke. I could care less about science I mean it was my second favorite subject but I still got bored a lot. Everyone got up and paired themselves with their friends. I had none of my friends in this class.

"Looks like Eren's alone again."

That would be Jean. He never liked me. I never liked him. He was a douche bag to me and all my friends except Mikasa.

"So what if I am?"

"It means you are a loser."

"Why does it mean I'm a loser? At least I always get an A+."

"Hah. That's really funny Eren. Now stop lying to yourself."

"Jean just back off would you."

I looked behind Jean and saw his boyfriend Marco.

"Yeah horse face. I don't see the point in bullying people for no reason."

That deep voice sounded not too happy or pleased with the world. Marco, Jean, and I all turned our attention to the person who had walked up behind me. It was Levi.

"Oh hi Levi. I didn't know you were in this class," I said.

"Tch. Anyways horse face...you should shut your damn mouth before I shut it permanently."

"You don't scare me midget."

The next thing I knew, Jean was on the floor and had a bloody nose.

"For you information Eren has a partner anyways."

I just watched Levi with my eyes as wide as they would go. This guy was not someone to mess with. Don't let his height deceive you.

"I-I do?" I ask.

"Shh," Levi says to me.

"Fine Eren if you have a partner then I have no right to judge you. Wait. On second thought I do."

"Goodbye horse face!" I said waving to him in a sarcastic manner.

And with that, he was out of the room and off to whatever his next class was.

"Um...thank you for what you did Levi..."

"Don't mention it brat."

"Um about what you said about me being your partner and all for the project...did you really mean it?"

"Yes. I would be you partner. Do you seriously never get a partner?"

"No. There was an odd number of kids in this class and the same ones always pair up. That means I'm always alone for the project. Like Jean said I always get an A+ anyways so..."

"What's your next class?"

"Excuse me?"

"Well I have gym next and I wanted to know if you are going to be there because...I don't really have many friends..."

"Oh I'm sorry. Next I have 2D art and then afterwards I have 3D Art. Sorry Levi."

"Nah it's ok Eren. I'll be fine."

"Oh we can meet up after school if you want too..."

"I have to stay after school for something."

"But it's only your first day."

"I don't care. I want to stay after."

"Well maybe we can still hang out. I need to catch up on a project for art anyways."

"I need to go. Don't want to be late on my first day."

"Bye Levi!"

And with that, he walked out of the classroom. My next class was pretty much across the school. I always was either late or just on time. That was really the only thing that annoyed me about my art class. But I finally got there and some how, two minutes early.

"Hey Eren!"

It was my two friends Hannah and Mina.

"Hey guys," I said.

"Eren what are you doing?!" Hannah squealed.

"What's wrong?" I simply asked.

"It's orange friday! Where is your jersey?! Where is your sweat shirt?!"

"Ok calm down hannah," I said ," I have a shirt on underneath my coat. Also I brought my beanie too but no hats in school. You think I am not going to show my Broncos sprit?"

"Ok then."

"Well I know we will beat Carolina. Everybody doubts us but in the end, we are gonna win the Super Bow.."

"Eren!!!" Mina and Hannah said together.

"What?" I asked.

"Don't say it," Mina said ," you'll jinx it."

"You guys are so superstitious," I say with a slight chuckle.

I smile. Then I put my fist in the air.

"Go BRONCOS!" I shout.

"GO BRONCOS!!!!" Hannah and Mina shout together before scurrying off to their seats.

*Time skip*

I walked out of my class. 3D art was definitely the most boring class today. All we were doing was discussing a bunch of things that have to do with, I don't even know. It just bored me half to death. I liked it better when we actually did stuff with clay and what not. 

So Levi said he was staying after for something. I wonder what it is? Maybe I'll ask him later. I walk back to my 2D art class and start scribbling away on my paper. It is true that I needed to catch up on some things but I usually took my art stuff home and finished it there. But today I just wanted to meet up with Levi after school.

"Oh shoot," I said digging through my back pack," I left my charcoal pencil in my locker."

I mainly used this for shading and I kind of needed it right now. So I stand up and walk out of the room and go to my locker. I open it up and take out my box of special pencils. Might as well bring the whole thing. I close my locker and then turn around to start walking back to my art class.

Suddenly I hear some music. It sounds like the theme song to a show I watch. I walk towards the sound and it brings me to the band room. I look through the small window and see the whole band inside. They are a medium size band so they are not to big or small. I know a few of the instruments. I can easily recognize the flute, trumpet, and saxophone because well...who can't? My eyes continue to run across the crowd until I come to a section that has four people in it. It is the same instrument that I had drawn. The same instrument Levi had told me about. The French Horn section.

The four people look like they know what they are doing. The whole band does at that. But this specific section just looks...I don't know. There were two girls and two boys. But as I study them, I notice that the one sitting on the far left of the section is...

"Levi?" I whisper.
