Game On

Chapter 5

Alexia's POV

Great. Just freaking great. It's music now and we have a music test, which is due by by next friday. Guess what kind of test is it?

Its a duet. We have to sing a song with our partners and perform the piece with the entire class. If not done by the due date or did badly, you have to stay back and take music lessons for the rest of the semester.

But that's not the worst part. My freaking partner is, Brent. Oh my god.

"Alright class. I'll let you discuss with your partner about this test" the teacher announced.

'Urghh... and here comes the devil himself' I rolled my eyes.

"Hi Partner" Brent sat beside me, smiling and its giving me the butterflies in the stomach.

"So what song do you want to do? Oh by the way, just in case you don't know. I suck at singing" I told him

"Its fine. I'll just find a song which you can do easily. But first let me hear you sing?" he questioned as he took his phone out.

"Why? And what is that?"

"Honey, this is called a phone. You use this to call people and search things up online" he said sarcastically.

'Did he just call me Honey?? Oh my god. Oh My God' I thought to myself. Why am I smiling so much because of just one nickname? Ok you got to calm down Lexi.

"Yea I know that. So why do you want me to sing again?" I questioned him.

"To know if your good or bad in singing" he said as if its the most obvious thing in the world.

"Ok so what song would you want to sing?" He raised an eyebrow.

"Ummm...... Try by Colbie Calliet maybe?" I said unsure.

"Nice choice. I love that song" he shrugged and went back to searching the song.

"Alright its starting" he gave me a heads up.

Closing my eyes, I focused on the song and let my mouth move with the melody...
