Electric

Part 4 - Edgy Nick

"So Nick, you new here?" I asked sipping on the drink he passed me
"Nah not really, I have always been around," he replied leaning on the bar
Nick had a pair of thick square black glasses over his stunningly bright blue eyes, his hair was jet black and looked wet, I don't know how. He had a trendy hair cut which was shaved down the sides and back and the hair was longer at the top, his hair sat messily over the shaved sides.

"I have never really seen you around where do you hide?" Nick asked now throwing an empty beer can from the bar into a trash can.
"I usually hang out in Room M1, they have some really nice instruments in there," I said half smiling
"Oh really that tool Jae took the music room so I had nowhere to go," Nick huffed glancing over at the stage where Jae was singing
"What do you play?" I asked my interest in this random guy growing
"I'm a synthesizer it's my thing," he replied still eyeing Jae

"You can come by Room M1 tomorrow if you like," I said not making eye contact with him
"Really that would be great!" He said smiling
I placed my drink on the counter and rubbed my eyes looking over at the crowded dance floor
"I should get going," I said groggily
"You just got here though," Nick said
"Yeah but I honestly hate parties," I said yawning
Suddenly the lights dimmed and the room went silent
"Here we go," Nick complained

The lights lit up on Veronica who was wearing a deep tight red dress and a pure gold choker around her neck, I guess it was fitting for her rich status.
"Hello classmates, thank you all for coming to my party and I hope everyone is enjoying their time here,"
"What is this a coronation," I whispered to Nick he snorted in response
"But I actually have a problem to addresses,"
I rolled my eyes but the lights suddenly focused on me
"What the hell," I snapped

"Someone is not dancing," Veronica walked up to me sleazily
"Why don't you enjoy your self, stop being such a party pooper," She snarled throwing a microphone
"Give us a beat Jae," she called
I began to hear the instruments chime in, this is one of Day6's songs I was such an idiot to know the English lyrics but you know what I'm sick of this Veronica girl I may as well put her in her place.

"Now you won't even pick up my calls
Instead of you, I hear a dull voice" I sang
I watched as the crowd grew quiet and became immersed in the battle, Veronica's face fumed as she held up her microphone.
"There are always hard days
But you can't win over that moment
And you look for an alternative" she sang jealously waving through the air
"Let's take some time
When I heard that
That we should take some time
I understood it exactly as it sounded" I sang as I slipped into the song
Veronica opened her mouth to sing but instead, I took over

"Congratulations, you're so amazing
Congratulations, how could you
Be so fine?
How could you trample on me?
I see your smiling face, I guess you forgot everything
When you said let's take some time
When you said let's think about it
You looked into my eyes and made me believe you
Like this," I sang powerfully I looked over to Jae's electric guitar longingly but I have to keep that secret for my own sake
I watched as Veronica was taken aback as I sang confidentially, people began to cheer as Veronica was swallowed by the crowd.

I looked up at the stage where Day6 were playing their instruments happily, I looked over at Jae as he locked eyes with he simply smiled slightly before focusing on his guitar. As the song finished people were left looking at me stunned and confused, I walked over to Veronica and handed her the microphone back before walking out of the party. As I walked out I felt well just a little proud of my self, knowing that Veronica and Jae will back off for a while.

The Next Morning

As I walked into school with my hoodie and jeans as always eyes followed me throughout the school, whispers spread like wild fire and I began to regret my decision to step into the spotlight last night. There is only 1 option, for now, Room M1, ducking my head down I began to make my way there suddenly I felt a finger tap my shoulder. Jerkily I turned around to find Nick in a pair of heavily ripped jeans and a leather jacket.

"Morning," he smiled
"Oh hi Nick," I replied awkwardly looking over at the people staring at us           
"Follow me," I continued walking away hoping people would focus on something else, this is the one time that I wish Jae and his gang gang were around.
I opened the door to Room M1 and led Nick in, Nick immediately went over to the keyboard looking at it intently.
"So you come here every day?" he asked
"Yep it's great no Day6 or Veronica," I replied picking up my favorite guitar

Jae's POV
"Don't you guys think last night was well interesting," Young K said as we sat in the music room
(make sure to comment below if you would rather me call Young K Brian)
"What about it," I replied hastily
"Shay," he said
"She killed the performance last night, did you see Veronica's face," he said enthusiastically
"It was luck," I said looking downwards
"How is THAT luck," Sungjin joined
"It seems that Shay just might have some talent," Sungjin then smirked
"Are you crazy, there is no way that, that emo can possibly be talented," I defended feeling my fingers beginning to burn with anger
"Gees, sorry," Sungjin retorted

I took a deep breath before placing my guitar down, she is not talented right, questions began to swim around in my head she was always so quiet is she may be hiding something and she is constantly disappearing. No stop it Jae, Shay doesn't mean anything to you just focus on yourself and the band...
Suddenly the music room door burst open and in stormed an extremely irritated Veronica, she barged through all the instruments ignoring our stares and looked at me straight in the eye.
"I have an idea," she huffed
