So as usual I had the same routine except it was a little earlier this time as I had to get there early for my practise slot and indeed I did I managed to do it even though I'd only had about 2 and a half hours sleep. To my actual surprise sat in the practise room all alone strumming a guitar was the boy,it wasn't until now that I had properly looked at him...he had wavy longish blonde hair which swept across his forehead just above his eyes,his eyes were blue...deep blue like the ocean,gentle too kind and loving and his clothes suited him in a strange way he was so gentle but his style showed he was into punk rock and all music like that...he was in all black but it complemented his eyes,his leather jacket creasing on the arms as his arm moved up and down strumming the strings of the guitar,playing a song I recognised but i wasn't quite sure of the name of it--we didn't have to wear uniform today as we would work better if we were in our own clothes,well that's what the teachers said anyway. I finally plucked up the courage to actually walk into the room and as I did he looked up at me,stared straight into my eyes and said 'hi I'm Tate,nice to finally speak to you', of course being me I didn't answer straight away and just stared at him without a single word spoken, so that's when he asked if i was okay--that snapped me out of it. I quickly replied and engaged in convocation with him, I learned that he played multiple instruments and was in a local band whichs music career was starting to kick off...I'll admit I had just a tiny crush on him.

So it was now 9am and my exam was at 9:30 but I hadn't even practiced I was too busy talking to Tate,he had also noticed that I hadn't accomplished my task yet so he passed me the guitar and I expected him to leave but he just sat there intently. He sat and watched me strum the guitar and begin to sing,to my surprise he knew the song--he joined in...his sweet voice completed mine in ways I never imagined possible and the harmonies merged perfectly. He then picked up another guitar and played the lead to the song which I was unable to learn as my skill wasn't that good yet--we sat there singing whilst looking at each other and kind of smiling. I didn't want to leave,I didn't want it to end...it was perfect. But then the examiner walk in,she must have thought we were a pair as she wrote both our names down but then I realised that Tate had partnered with me...I get to spend to whole term with him. I wanted to explode,I had so many feelings rushing through my mind and butterflies In the pit of my stomach,I'd never experienced anything like this before,I was extremely confused. Tate had something about him,he was different...i still had that niggling thought that Tate wasn't completely who he said and he wasn't everything he seemed to be but my heart told me to stick around.
