Eli and i were working on our project. He was writing out lyrics while i was on my phone using a piano app to come up with the melody. He dropped the notebook in front of me. I glanced up from my phone reading over the words. I hummed the words to the melody. I tensed glancing up. Everyone was kind of worried over the fact that we were getting along. Eli dropped his hand on my head and started messing with my hair. There was a quiet murmur spreading throughout the class, everyone went back to work on their projects. I removed the earbud on the other side of me and handed it to Eli.

"Tell me what you think." i stated hitting play on what i had recorded. His face lit up and this smile grew on his face.

"It's really rad!" he exclaimed dropping his hand from my head. His smile dropped. "However, we're supposed to perform these to the class."

"Yeah, so, you can do what?" i asked

"Guitar." he stated.

"Then you play the guitar and i'll sing. But the thing with this keyboard is that i can hook it up to my electric board and uplode the track i make and we can work from there." i stated. He looked at me oddly.

"You've done this before?" he asked

"I was a summer dj at a friends club in london. For six years in a row." i stated.

"Why? Who lets a kid into a club? To dj nonetheless?" he asked i shrugged.

"He was out a dj and i got payed in candy and stickers." i stated

"Can you show me a track you made?" he asked i nodded switching apps. I pulled up one of my more recent tracks and hit play. He stared at the front board in awe. We ended up listening to my tracks for the rest of the period while he wrote lyrics and i was coming up with a beat and making marks on a sheet of paper.
