17 year old Melina Garcia is nothing but trouble. And trouble is all that seems to follow her. When enrolled into a new school, she seems to develop a nemesis; her music theory professor, Mr Armstrong. But what happens when their constant nagging an...
I let out a sigh as I closed the door to Mr Armstrong's classroom. Why did I do that? He's dating my aunt and is WAY too old for me.
Smooth move Melina. God forbid someone slightly bruises your ego.
I shook my head and checked my school schedule to see what class I have next. Art. I smiled to myself simply because I love art. It's like for one whole class I'm in my own little world, creating whatever the hell I want.
Once I had made it to the art class room, I scanned the room to see if any of the boys where in this class. Yes, they were my only actual friends in school right now. At least, I kinda consider them my friends.
The only one in this class was Calum so I decided to say 'fuck it' and go sit with him.
"Hey Calum" I spoke up.
He smiled softly. "Hey Melina, how are you?"
"I'm pretty great"
I've never been good at small talk.
"So I take it your date with Michael went well?" he asked, a little smirk playing on his lips.
"Oh, you heard about that?" I asked, feeling my cheeks heat up.
"Yeah we all did.Michael wouldn't shut up about you." he rolled his eyes but let out a laugh.
I couldn't help but laugh as well. "I'm sorry about that Calum"
"Don't be. I think you'd be really good for him. You're really different from all his past girlfriends, in a good way of course!" he added making me smile.
"Thanks Calum, although I don't think I'm his girlfriend" I admitted.
"Oh.." Calum trailed off. "well you like him right?"
Before I could answer, our art teacher walked in after the bell had rung.
Did all the teachers in this school show up to their classes late?
"Hi class I'm Mr Way," our teacher greeted us. "you may not know me seeing as I took a three year break. But I'm back and have listed your assignment choices on the white board. So pick whichever you want and get to work!"
I chose the third option which was to come up with my own idea and run it by Mr Way. I really liked the idea of creating a painting on newspaper clippings. I was thinking of doing a tribute to the Forever 27 club and finding or creating my own newspaper clippings about each of the members.

I told Calum my idea and his eyes widened. "That sounds incredible Melina, holy shit that took you like two minutes to come up with"
I blushed a little at his words. I'm always so awkward when it comes to compliments. "Thanks Calum."
Nervously, I got up and walked up to run my idea by Mr Way. Hell yeah I was nervous. This teacher was hot too. What was up with this school?
