Kaleb
"Mom." I screamed from downstairs.
"I'm coming." she ran downstairs. I was meeting Jackson and Halle at school. my mom of course wanted millions of pictures.
"you look amazing baby girl." she kissed my forehead.
"are you sure you don't want me to come." she asked again
"I'm sure." she hugged me again.
"see you in four hours." I called as I ran to my car. since it's a performing arts school, and most of the students are internet famous. school is four hours. my classes consist of composing 101, vocals level three, warm ups 2.0, health, art, and lunch.
I plugged my phone into the aux. blasting my playlist. as I pulled in I was singing selfie by Mark Thomas.
"can you take a selfie for me, post it up real sexy." I turned off the car, and searched the lot for Jackson and Halle. I finally found them, Halle's eyes lit up when she saw me. I jumped on Jackson's back.
"gay boys getting some pussy." a tall boy said as he walked by.
"he probably gets sucked on more than you." I said back, a few people laughed.
"okay schedules." we each handed him ours. he studied them.
"we have lunch, and health all together. but Kaleb has art alone, and we're split up for the rest of the day." he said quickly. we both nodded.
"Kal, your with Zach all day. I don't know who else."
"I know, I talked to him earlier." I looked at Halle who looked extremely nervous.
"Hal you'll be okay. you have Jackson most of the day. and you can just text me if you need me." she nodded. I hugged her. I put one headphone in, and walked to my first class. I got there early. I paused my music.
"is this vocals level three, with Ms. Bartles?" I said quietly.
"yes, you must be Kaleb?" I nodded, she was young. my mom's age, she had long dirty blond hair.
"do you go by Kaleb? Or do you prefer something else?" She smiled at me.
"Kallie."
"Summerall? oh my lanta, your Annie and Haydens daughter." I nodded. her name sounded familiar.
"I'm jayden, I was close with your parents for years." it clicked.
"jannie." I said softly. she nodded. I sat in the back, softly humming the lyrics to photograph. kids slowly started coming in, I was at least 15 minutes early. I noticed someone sit at my table.
"not even gonna say hello Summerall?" I looked up to see Zach, and a brown haired boy.
"Zachhh." I said excited.
"headphones? I see you made friends with the teacher." I laughed.
"something like that." I mumbled.
"are you gonna introduce your friend orrr." I stretched out the or.
"Kal this is Mikey Barone." he smiled at me.
"this'll be fun." I sighed as Ms. Bartels started class.

Lunch

I entered the lunchroom, it felt like everyone was staring at me. well one specific group of girls at least. I searched the tables, I finally found Jackson, Zach, Mikey, Bryce and Mark. I walked over and jumped on Jackson's back.
"where's Halle?" I asked as I sat next to Jackson, the others were staring at us. but I ignored them.
"I don't know, call her." I had a text from bbg😊💘

bbg😊💘: sorry I'm late, coming now.
"she's coming." Jackson nodded. I put my headphones back in, my unreleased song came on. I softly hummed it.

she looked at me
I faked a smile so she won't see
What I want and I'm needing
Everything that should be

I'll bet its beautiful, that place she talked about
And its got everything that I have to live without

she talks to me
I laugh because it's so damn funny
That I could never even see
how happy I could've been if you were with me

She says they were so in love, she finally had it right
I wonder if he knows he's all I think about at night

he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
he's the song in the car
I keep singing, don't know why I do

he walks with me
Can't he tell that I can't breathe?
And there he goes, so peacefully
The kind of happy I wished I could be

he should've held me tight, given me all his love
Looked in my sad eyes and knew we could've had, a special bond that can't be replaced

he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star
he's the song in the car
I keep singing, don't know why I do

So I drive home alone, as I turn off the light
I'll put his picture down and maybe get some sleep tonight

he's the reason for the teardrops on my guitar
The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart
he's the song in the car
I keep singing, don't know why I do

the time was taken up, there was never enough I'll never feel right, he's all that I need to fall asleep tonight

I hummed it, or so I thought. I looked up and everyone was staring at me.
"I was singing wasn't I?" i whispered to Halle. she nodded. my cheeks flushed, bright red.
"your a great singer." Bryce was the first to speak.
"thanks." I said quietly.
"was that-" Zach trailed off. I nodded.
"I'm gonna, I gotta, um bye." I picked up my books and rushed out of the cafeteria. i found a bench in the quad, everyone was at lunch. the campus was quiet. I put my head in my hands. note to self, don't wear headphones so loud I can't hear myself. Jackson text me.
boo🌈💜: I love you boo, btw hottie coming your way😏
boo🌈💚: wym

I felt a tap on my shoulder. I looked up to see mikey standing over me.
"oh hey." I stuttered. he sat next to me.
"you okay?" I nodded.
"your song I'm guessing?" I nodded again.
"you don't talk much?" I laughed
"sorry."
"don't apologize. your a great singer." I blushed, causing me to cover my face.
"your cute when you blush." he pulled my hands away.
"Halle's probably worried. I should go." I stuttered and ram inside.
