Darcy's P.O.V
Dear Diary,
This must look really bad, for a 19 year old college student to be writing in a diary, but it's not like anyone else is going to listen. So like I said, I'm in college, a quite successful student at the university of London, which may just be the reason I come off as a nerd to many people, but I hope I can change that. It's true, I do love to read and learn, but I'm so much more, and I wish people could see it. Maybe I can make them see, maybe.

"404.678" I replied, the question was so easy, I could do it mentally, with no trouble. I heard mutters of, 'nerd', and 'stuck-up', and as much as I hated those comments, the teacher's "That's correct" response, made me feel a bit better about myself.
I slumped back in my chair, as Mr. Browner continued to lecture us on something that I already knew and payed no attention to. I scrolled through my 'Ask.fm' on my laptop and only found, hurtful messages saying how boring, or awful I apparently am.
I sighed and closed out of it, knowing I would only make myself worse by reading those god awful comments. I didn't see a point in having a face book, twitter or instagram, because no one would care about me anyways, I am perfectly fine with my YouTube and Ask.fm accounts.

With the school day finally over-for the time being-, I was finally released and could retreat to one of the places where I felt wanted, my job.
"Good afternoon Kanya" I greeted hanging up my jacket by the back door, Kanya was my boss, and although she was in her early 50s she was my only friend. She was sweet, and was always sincere with her words. The skin by her plain blue eyes crinkled when she smiled, and she always gave a soft laugh when she found something funny. She was all around like a mother to me, would've been better if I knew her years ago, but the past is the past, and moving to London is my new beginning.
"Hello Darcy! Do you mind tuning up the new arrivals?" She asked politely, I nodded and walked over to the rack of guitars. I picked one up and sat on the counter as I began fiddling with it. It was a gorgeous guitar, and I wished I had enough to buy a new one, like this, but I sadly didn't.
I began to strum softly when I figured it was tuned, and soon found myself playing a favorite song of mine. The tune was from the song, 'She is' by the fray. I hummed the words softly, and no later found myself singing softly.
Do not get me wrong I cannot wait for you to come home
For now you're not here and I'm not there, it's like we're on our own
To figure it out, consider how to find a place to stand
Instead of walking away and instead of nowhere to land
This is going to break me clean in two
This is going to bring me close to you
She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed
I began strumming again, and hadn't even noticed the costumers that approached the many instruments on display. I was lost in the music, which is exactly where I wanted to be, if only I could stay like this forever, but nothing lasts forever. I sighed and placed the guitar on a rack and picked up the next.
After I had tuned that one, I found myself playing another rather amazing song.
If I don't say this now I will surely break
As I'm leaving the one I want to take
Forget the urgency but hurry up and wait
My heart has started to separate
"You're pretty good!" A voice praised, I looked up and met a pair of warm chocolate eyes. "Hey Niall, come over a second" He said, gesturing for the blonde bloke-who was examining the guitar section- to come over. He walked over and offered me a smile, which I tried to return, only instead giving a fake, plastered smile.
"What's up?" He asked, "Well this girl here is simply amazing on the guitar and I thought you might be interested" He explained, the blonde raised his eyebrows expectantly, and I gave a look of confusion.
"Would you mind playing something?" He asked, I nodded slowly and repeated a piece of my previous song.
I finished, and he stared in awe. "What's your name?" He asked, I contemplated whether to tell him, "Uh, Darcy" I replied. "Well Darcy you are amazing, I was looking for a guitar me self, would you mind helping me?" He asked, I smiled and nodded, I then recognized that his accent wasn't quite British, Irish maybe?
"Well, may I ask what exactly you were looking to get?" I asked, hopping off the counter and heading to the guitar section. "Umm, price doesn't matter, I was looking to get a Fender, as I love the way they sound "He exclaimed.
"Those are my favorite" I smiled, I noticed the one with brown hair smiling at me, but I wouldn't meet his gaze. It's not that I was trying to be rude, I just didn't like the thought of someone staring at me, because it makes me self conscious.
"Well, I recommend this one, it's got a great sound" I suggested, pulling down a black acoustic guitar. I placed it in Blondie's hands, and stood as he examined it. He finally looked up at me and smiled, "I think this is the one" He grinned, they followed me, as I walked back to the counter.
When I told him the price I assumed, he would just sigh and return the guitar to its place, but it shocked me when he just pulled out his wallet and handed me the exact amount. Wow, wealthy much?
"I'm Liam by the way" The brunette exclaimed, smiling that same-rather creepy-smile. I couldn't help but wonder if he always smiled at complete strangers like that, but shook the thought off, and just smiled.
"Do you work here?" He asked, I nodded, and for some odd reason, he smiled wider. "Well, thanks a lot, best be going, nice meeting you!" The Niall bloke said, as he took his guitar and began to walk out.
"Bye Darcy" Liam smiled.
"Bye Liam" and with that, he turned and left.
