Before I could respond, the teacher came into the classroom asking for everyone to calm down and begin taking notes from the projector screen he had pulled down.

Link only grinned at me before picking up his mechanical pencil between his fingers and twirling it easily along his fingertips.

I rolled my eyes gazing up at Walker as he floated down to the floor again, deciding to sit on the table with his legs crossed. He was taking up the middle section between us so if I wanted to see Links I had to look over Walker or through him.

Walker had an annoyed look on his face as he huffed loudly, a piece of his hair blowing out of his face.

It was actually amusing seeing him this annoyed, I couldn't help but smile.

Link took this the wrong way though, "You should smile more often, it looks better than a scowl." He chuckled to himself as he wrote down notes from the board in a neater writing than I thought would come from him.

I rolled my eyes once again, reminding myself that no one else could see Walker except me.

"Aww, why'd you start frowning again," he reached over with his left hand and lightly poked the edge of my lips, raising it as if I was smiling.

I grabbed his wrist quickly, moving it back to his side, "I just met you, please don't touch me." I muttered.

He raised his hands in defeat, shaking his head, "Fair enough." He slowly lowered his hands again, crossing his arms on the table and placing his chin against one of his hands, "Sorry but I'm quite very touchy person. I like physical contact."

I raised my eyebrows at him before slowly scooting my chair further away from him.

His eyes lit up in amusment as he began to laugh again, "No, no, calm down. I'm not going to do anything bad." He kept grinning like a maniac as his stomach rolled with laughter.

"Don't you have friends you could hang out with?" I said. You could easily tell how sour in a mood I was in.

Link didn't seem to care though.

He shook head before tilting his head in the direction of the front of the classroom, "Everyone here at least knows me and I know them. I could hang out with anyone and we would have a great time." He smiled and winked before continuing, "But my main bro Miles is up front. He's the guy with the green, vomit colored highlights."

I couldn't help but gaze toward the front and I found the guy Link was talking about easily.

His hair was raven black and had an ugly shade of green streaking through his hair and along the tips. He had brown eyes and over all he looked pissed with life. Everything about his posture said so. The way he had his chin against his crossed arms in his desk, his slumped but tense figure and the scowl on his face. I also couldn't help but notice the small metal bud in the corner of his lip, a lip piercing.

Link I could tell was smiling as he waved in Miles direction. Miles saw him and rolled his eyes before raising his hand up and quickly putting it down. Not giving much of an effort.

"He doesn't seem to like you very much," I muttered softly before giving a quick smirk.

He shook his head, turning back to face me, "He loves me. He just isn't much of a people person like me." He grinned widely. He had one chipped tooth, one of his front ones, "He shows his true nature through music. He's our drums, absolutely amazing I tell you."

I raised my eyebrows, very confused, "He's our drums?'

He rubbed the back of his head, looking at me apologeticly, "Sorry, I went a little too fast. I'm in a band called the Misfits. I'm the lead guitarist, Miles is our drums, Zeke is our bass and of course we can't leave out our main attraction Axel, our singer." He smiled widely, clearly enjoying talking about his friends.

I didnt know any of the people he was talking about and to be honest I didnt really care for music after hearing Will play his violin for so long.

Walker was still looking down at the both of us, his whole figure was tense and he looked ready to leave, but he was listening to every word Link said.

I looked away from Walker quickly and back toward Link, "Thats cool I guess. I'm not too much of a fan of music to be honest." I shrugged my shoulders slowly.

Link looked frozen. He had a look of pure confusion on his face, as if he hadn't heard of someone who didn't like music before.

"But..." He started speaking, "How's that possible? I mean isn't your brother a musician? I thought you would of grown up enjoying music."

My shoulders stiffened up.

There it goes again, Will, Will, Will. That's all anyone talks about.

"Thats the whole issue.." I muttered darkly under my breath.

Walker turned to face Link, holding his fist in his other hand. He looked ready to beat the crap out of him.

"I understand. You dislike music because of how good he is right?"

My thoughts stopped as I looked up at Link.

He couldn't of heard me could he?

He smiled softly, a kinder more gentle look than his playful smiles before, "You're right to be jealous of him. He has talent, I wish I could be good as him." He looked towards the board and copied another bullet from the notes, "I know I won't be as good at him but that doesn't stop me from playing music." He paused from writing, "It only makes me try harder."

I only just met him and he somehow made his words sink in deep.

He was making an impression just like Walker.

Links lips curved in a smirk, "Don't be discouraged by him, I've heard he's actually nicer than he looks." He winked and chuckled softly, looking down at my sheet of paper, "And Audrey?"

"Yeah?" I said softly.

He pointed his pencil to my paper, which was entirely blank, "You better copy down the notes before Mr. Dean changes the slide."

I bit my lip, scowling, grabbing my pencil and hurriedly beginning to write down the notes.

He couldn't stop laughing, clutching his stomach.

I already could tell he was going to cause me some trouble.

I couldn't help but glance up at Walker who was looking down at me. He shook his head but a faint smile was there, "I guess more people are going to be your friends," Walker said quietly, "Just remember I was here first."
