"Throwing rocks at your window at midnight. You met at me in your backyard that night. In the moonlight you looked just like an angel in disguise. My whole life seemed like a postcard..."

*****

It was autumn in my late fourteenth year of existence here on Earth that time. I never thought that that would be unforgettable year for me before I turn fifteen. I'm Luke, and this is my bitter sweet fairy tale.

The grass were so green and I could see some leaves who were falling from the maple trees, the warm breeze of the afternoon wind was touching my skin.

I was sitting on the green grass at the school field that time, eating my nachos alone. Resting because I was so exhausted of our practice game happened earlier.

It was really fun to be with yourself alone because no one could interrupt on your weird day dreaming or something.

In front of me was my slightly open back pack, it was placed on an empty bench. Beside of it was my phone, Please Don't Go by Mike Posner was playing in it. I was studying this song for a very long time 'cause I wanna play this with my guitar.

There was a peace of mind, like everything was fine, seems like there was no problems, no heart breaks, no hard feelings, nothing at all. All I heard was the song that was coming from my phone, nothing more. No loud noise of our schoolmates, no irritating voices of my friends...

Oh, speaking of friends, they left me here alone because they changed their clothes. I don't have extra shirt with me so I was just here, sitting and waiting for their comeback.

Everything was so perfect, the beautiful green environment, the nachos, the good music, and of course, myself alone. Ugh, this is life!

I just wanted to be alone that time and feel the nature around me. Oh God knows how I love His work of art. I always have my camera with me, I get it inside my backpack the moment I saw a beautiful thing.

I saw the tall and wonderful tree of maple behind the bench that was in front me, its leaves were falling down, the sky was so clear and bright, the sun was on the shade of orange, I took a photo of this amazing creation.

God, you're the best, everything you do is perfect!

I thought that everything happening to me was permanent, that I would be alone with nature forever, but I was wrong. From behind me, I heard Calum's laugh, and with that, I knew that they were just around the corner. They were chatting around, and yeah, they ruin the perfect moment that I have.

"So, what's our plan for tonight?" Calum asked with full of excitement. It was obvious in his tone that he was excited, it was high pitched and loud. He asked me as he sat on the bench beside my bag.

Why is this Calum excited?

"Plan? Why? For what?" To be honest, I really didn't know what he was talking about. The confusion was drawn all over my face. Still sitting on the grass, not making any move.

"It's Saturday! You already forgot it? Boys night out Dude." Ashton enlightened me as he drank in his tumbler. He also sat on the grass, beside me. He tapped my shoulder, as I looked at him, he wagged his brows.

Actually, I didn't know what's that wag for but I just wagged my brows at him in return.

"Oh yeah! Boys night out. What are we going to do for tonight?" Darn it. We always do this so how the hell did I forgot about it? Short term memory loss, I guess.

"Any suggestions?" Romeo asked. He sat beside Calum. Calum and Romeo is kinda look a like, maybe because Calum looked like an Asian but actually he's not. Romeo is the only Asian guy in our group.
