Song For This Chapter: Simple As This by Jake Bugg

Caoimhe's POV

"Dude where the hell have you been?" George asked "I was confused whether I should join Arts club or Music club" the dark haired guy replied "You're such an idiot, we both planned on joining here & you're there asking yourself whether you want to ditch your friend or not" George said frustrated. "I'm sorry I only got distracted" he sighed "Mhmm let me guess.. it's Annie again" Zel said. I dont know what is going on anymore so I decided to do something else rather than listening to them. I borrowed Zel's notebook and I can see scribble lines on it which I guess are lyrics. "Oh Blake, this is Caoimhe and Caoimhe this is Blake" I awkwardly returned Zel's notebook and shyly shook Blake's hand "Okay, now, Blake, how can we add up this lyric and this and this and this?" George started pointing out stuffs in a paper to Blake while Blake just kept looking at it.
"This sounds really rubbish" Blake said and George just stared at him

"Guys I'll go to the bathroom okay, be right back" Zel interrupted. All of us nodded at her and she left "Hey Caoimhe, does this look rubbish to you?" George asked me as he handed me the piece of paper

People come and go
But you always just seem
To stick around and show
That you are into me
You left at ten in the morning
Why are you still on my mind?

My room still smells of your perfume
It's like I'm lying here next to you
Trying to figure it out
What you're all about
And I dont want to lose
The smell of your perfume
From my room

"Mhm, not bad but let me be honest, the first verse is really short" I honestly said "Okay?" Blake said "I suggest you add 2 more lines or 4 if possible" I said as I gave George the paper back. "Yeah you're right" Blake said as he bit his bottom lip and believe me, that was smoking hot.

My thoughts got interrupted as Zel came back and sat beside me "Zel, your friend Caoimhe is a genius" George said and Zel looked at me "What did she do?" she asked "She gave us some tips about songwriting" Blake replied. "Niiice" Zel smiled widely as she patted me at my back.

The rest of the hours was spent talking about our stories and how much music meant the world for us. I also learned that the teacher in charge for this club is a music nerd, not a music lover. He literally went to Vienna and study about Mozart's life and how he got poisoned by this snakey guy whose basically Mozart's trainer.

The last hour was spent in Homeroom again which means me & Zel parted with George & Blake. The teacher just discussed on how we got graded and etc. etc. blah blah blah

Finally the school bell rang which means its time to go home.. finally. I told Zel that i want to go home early and she said she's totally fine with it since she doesn't want me to be the third wheel in her and George's date.

As i walked outside the school gates, I saw Blake riding a bike and stopped beside me. He took a paper from his pocket and said "I nearly finished the song. The only missing part is the last 2 lines of the chorus and the 1st verse" I took the paper from him and saw he's right. He nearly finished the song. "Impressive" I said as I gave back the paper to him. "I'm gonna send you a message in facebook if I uh, ever got ideas for those 4 lines?" I said "No no, you can just get my number, I am currently inactive on my social medias for now" he said as I nodded and we exchanged phones "Now this is good" He gave back my phone to me as I gave back his to him "Wanna ride?" Blake asked as I shook my head "Oh no, Im too heavy" I joked and he chuckled "Shut up Caoimhe just ride"

I decided to just ride and can I just say that he smells so good, wow. I wonder why he wrote a song about a perfume from a girl when his own perfume smells probably much better than the one that the girl owns in his song. "So where do you live?" He asked and I started giving him directions and he kept nodding.

As we arrived, I saw Blake's eyes travelling through the area " You live here. wow" he said "Yeah I know, looks cheap but my parents did it for a reason since its just me and my brother living in this place" I explained as i pointed at a flat infront of us.

Both of us got quiet as we stared at the trees dancing around us "Well, I guess gotta go now" Blake said "Thanks for the ride" I smiled and he smiled back "No problem"

He then left and I also went in our flat. I saw my brother reading a book again with a cup of tea beside him. We didnt say a single word to each other, as usual and believe me, I am actually used to this.

I changed my clothes and started doing my homeworks
