Mute

First day

Mathew's POV don't play video yet.

'Today is my first day back in France and I am going to a school of preforming arts. I personally love it in Paris, it is the place I was born. Looking up at the nice blue sky I walk along side my brother', I breath in the fresh air as we approach the front doors of the school.

When I walked into the school my brother and I went our separate ways, looking down at my schedule I see Orchestra as my first class. Hum room A102... I wonder the halls with my viloin at my side, looking for the fine art's hall.

A boy with hair white like snow walked up to me his eyes red like polished ruby "Hey... um are you lost?" he asks as I moved my violin to my back.

I nod and pull my phone from my pocket and went to my notes typed "Yes, can you point me towards the Orchestra hall?" he nodded.

"Hey, you know that talking is a lot easier than typing." his words flowed, I envy him.

I type "Yes but unfortunately I don't have that luxury." I type as we begin to walk "You see I am mute." we walk till he stops at a large wooden door "oh, um my name is Mathew by the way." I type quickly getting his attention.

He hums "Well my name is Gilbert. Oh I see you play violin, well I play viola." he said with a laugh. "Oh and this is the music room, and I have the same first period." he explained.

I nodded as we proceed into the class room, everyone seemed to know him,; well it is the middle of the school year. Walking to the back of the class where there two seats next to each other in the viola and first violin section. We take a seat and then the director comes from the office. As i took my instrument case off my back and set it on the ground to take it out.

I look at the orchestra director he is tall with dark brown hair. His violet eyes framed by a pair of dark brown glasses "Now class we have a violinist his name is Mathew," he said as he gestured for me to stand. "He is a fantastic violinist. You may play if you are comfortable with this." I only nod in responce.

I pick up my instrument from the case putting it to my shoulder then think of what to play, hum maybe clocks, by Coldplay or yes Beethoven's 3rd Symphony. I close my eyes geting onto the proper position, and took a deep breath placing my fingers in the correct position before taking up my bow and began to let the bow slide across the strings delicately.

Every bow stock, every finger movement I start to relax and melt into the music. I heard a piano join in, we paired perfectly our pitch, melody and tempo flowed like boiling hot gold. This is my way of talking my way to express my emotions. I stopped cause I got too comfortable. So I bowed and took my seat. Everyone clapped and told me I did great.

I sighed 'thank you.' repeatedly. I turned towards Gilbert who had a big smile on his face. He mouthed the words 'you dd great'.

"Wow Mathew, you did great. Usually the kids that get up and preform stop after two seconds but you were really comfortable, you were in your element." Mr. Eederushutain said. I bowed my head in thanks.

My classes went nicely and I have almost every one with Gilbert so far. So at least I know someone right. Well now it is lunch and we have the same lunch to oh I cant wait... wait!, did I seriously just inner fangirl about a boy?

'Well um...
maybe...
but I just met the guy he's not that great... is he?'

"Hey Mathew, over here." Gil's accent is so cute. Wait what, no don't let it get to you, you just met him.

I wave sprinting to him, there are a few other people with him one of them I know. Alfred he's my brother and he is the one person I really want to see. I hug him "Mathew, how have classes gone so far? Wait, were's Papá he said that this would he his lunch break? I can't wait till Dad see's you!" he release me from his grasp so I could write.
