I hung my head, Jordan patting my back.

"I'm gonna fail...." I mutter over and over again. "I have the songs, apparently I have talent, but I just can't sing in front of people." I look up at Jordan who looks a little nervous. "What did you do?"

"Well do you know a youtuber called mysterious_Singer?" She asked, I nodded. "Well she may or my not be you and most of your songs are on the Internet so you couldn't even sing one of your songs even if you wanted to because everyone knows mysterious_Singer and would think you copied her even though you are her." She says really quickly. I felt my eye twitch.

"WHAT?!" I shout, standing up. She looks at me with a 'was that me?' look. I felt my eye twitch and I stormed my way to the dance room. It was after-school and a Thursday. I knew nobody had dance or gym or any practice that day. I got changed into a crop top and tights before putting on some music. I did some freestyle before going into a song I had had a dance routine for.

I danced my heart out, by the end I was sweating. I mumbled the words as I danced. After awhile I was too tired to dance so I grabbed my guitar. I started strumming a tune and humming along. I forgot this was a public area until I felt someone behind me. My mind went into overdrive as I kicked them in the shin then proceeded to pin them to the floor. I may be small but I can still defend myself.

"Who the hell are you?" I spat, the person just laying there underneath me, face to the ground. "I'll ask again, who are you?" I say tightening my grip.

"OK! OK! Ow! Jeez, it's me Jack! Can you let go of my arm please?" He winced as I let go of his arm and getting off of him. He rubbed his arm, scowling at me. I just scoffed.

"What are you doing here Sean? Shouldn't you be drinking with your friends at some party with a bimbo on your lap?" I question, raising an eyebrow. He just rolls his eyes,

"No, I was just wondering if you wanted to be my partner for the exam," he states, my mouth hangs open slightly.

"What." I say, more demanding than questioning.

"The exam in music? Do you wanna be my partner? We get extra cred if we do it in pairs, I kinda need it. Also I've seen what you can do, your songs. They seem familiar though..." he rambles.

"Wait... you read my journal?!" I scream, he just smirked.

"Yeah, not sorry 'bout that. I was just curious. You know the saying, 'curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.' I just wanted to see what was so special." He explains. I just look at him horrified.

"Are you actually serious right now?!" I scream. He nods

"Yeah, what kind of heartbreak did you have to go through to write shit like that?" He asks. My eyes start to burn as the memories come back. I blink multiple times before pushing past Sean.

"If I agree to being your partner for the exam, will you leave me alone?" I ask, on the verge of tears.

"O...k... I'll leave now but here's my number, we need to work on the things. So text me when you're free." He explains, walking away.
