I'm not quite good at writing stories and still practicing, so feel free to give me some feedback, also things I could do better next time


(Andy and Rye are students on the same school)

Pov. Rye:

I'm a bit nervous, today's my first guitar lesson. I really wanted to learn how to play the guitar, so I wrote an ad and pinned it on the blackboard in my school. Two days ago a boy called me on, who said he'd teach me playing the guitar. He's only one grade over me and we agreed that he'd come around today at 3 pm. Which is, to be particularly, in less than 5 minutes. *Ding dong* the  door bell rings. It must be Andy. In excitement I run to the door and open it. "Hello, I'm Andy as you probably know." The blond boy with ocean blue eyes introduces himself. "Hi Andy! I already told you on the phone, but in case you don't remember, my name's Rye. Come in." "Should I take these off?" He asks, pointing down to his shoes. "My mum just cleaned the house, so I guess she'd be happy 'bout it." I reply. After taking his shoes off, Andy follows me into the house. "How are you? Are you motivated to learn playing the guitar?" Don't know, all I can say is that I'm a bit nervous around this gorgeous boy, but of course I can't say that. "Of course I am! And yeah, I'm fine. The guitar is in my room, just follow me." I lead Andy to my room and pick my guitar from the case. We sit down on the little sofa in it w room. "So, first we need to tune the guitar. I guess you didn't already, did ya?" "No, you're right. I don't know how to do it yet." "That doesn't matter. I suppose today I'll tune your guitar and we focus on playing it, the next time I'll show you how to tune it, okay? But only if you want me to teach you another time, of course." Of course I want you to. "Okay, I'm sure you're a great teacher." "How would you know, we didn't even start." "Don't know, I just think so." I say, shrugging my shoulders. "Here's my guitar." While he's tuning it I notice that he's got white polished nails. They look really good and I find it brave of him as a boy. I'll tell him later, as I don't wanna distract him now. After only a short time, Andy finished tuning my guitar and asks me if I ever played it before. "No, I didn't." He hands it back to me. "Then just play any random tune on it. It's the best way to get a feeling for the guitar." So I do as I'm told to and begin to play some notes and get to know the different sounds. "Good! Now try what happens when you put one hand up there..." Andy carefully takes my hand and places it on top of the guitar. His hands are so soft. "...and put one finger on a string. Yes, like this. And with the other hand you hit the strings. You're doing great, man." It's actually fun playing the guitar and Andy is such a nice guy. "Now you know the guitar a bit, let's try to play a song on it.  For the beginning it's good to start with some songs you like, so what kind of music do you listen to?" "I listen to a lot of One Direction. But I think they're really difficult to play on guitar, aren't they?" "You're right, but you can try if you want." "Nah, I'm gonna stay with Shawn Mendes, his songs are a bit easier for the beginning. What about his new one, >Lost in Japan< ?" "Sure, if you like that one. If you let me try itone time, so I can better show you how to play the song." I give him my guitar once again. "We'll start with the chorus, okay?" "Sure, why not." So Andy sings and plays the guitar. Wow, he's really good. Not just at playing the guitar, but also at singing. His voice just sounds wonderful. "Now it's your turn." He says while giving me my guitar back. "And now you first place your hand like that and put this finger right here." He explains while taking my hand and placing my fingers on the right positions. "Now you move your other hand along the strings and hit them...Exactly like that, you're doing great." It's not quite easy. "Do you have anything to write?" Andy suddenly asks. What do you need to write while learning the guitar? I ask myself. "Emm yeah, but why?" I ask him, while already looking for a pen and a paper. "I'll draw the different chords, so you can play a bit on your own when I showed them to you." "That makes sense, here." I offer him the paper sheet together with a pen. "Thanks, while I draw the chords, you can already play a bit on the guitar." He's so pretty, especially with those blue eyes. After he's finished with the drawings, he shows me how to do the other chords. At the end I try all together. "Should we take a little break?" Andy asks me and I nod. "Yes, great idea. I don't know what to do, so let's just chill and talk a little." "Yeah, let's do that." He agrees. "So how do you get along in school, do you need help with any subject?" Yes, in physics definitely, I don't get anything the teacher tries to explain. But I don't wanna seem weak to him, so I lie and just say: "No, but thank you. What type of music do you listen to, Andy?" "Hmm, I like the music of my buddy Harvey and One Direction. I was also in a 1D tribute band for a while. Now I'm in a group called >Overload Generation<, but we're about to split up." I know them and I feel really bad for him now. "Wow, I didn't know you're that famous. I've heard of Overload, but why are you splitting up?" "We don't really have a strong fandom, we're constantly arguing and stuff, so it's the only way." "Oh, that's a pity." "Yes, later I'm gonna try a career as a solo artist like Harvey." He seems a bit sad. "Your painted nails look good, they really suit you." I try to distract him from the Overload theme, cause I've got the feeling that it makes him upset, talking about it. "Thanks, I gently appreciate it. Most people only make fun of me because I wear nail polish." "I think it shouldn't matter if men or women do it." How dare anyone making fun of this sweet creature. "You're absolutely right. Another question: Did you ever have a crush on a teacher? You don't have to answer you're uncomfortable with it. It's just interesting me, because I once had a crush on a teacher." I love how open he is. "No, I didn't. But if my new guitar teacher counts, then yes." Oh fuck, why did I say that? I didn't wanna tell him. He's gonna hate me now. I just outed me to him and confessed him my feelings. He'll tell all his friends and the whole school will know. I'm such an idiot. "I'm so sorry, you can just go right now if you like to. I knowit's wrong and you hate me now. But please don't tell anyone." Why did I have to ruin everything? "Hey, it's alright." Andy says while hugging me. "I've got a crush on you too, Ryan." He must be joking. "Really?" I ask to make sure I heard right. "Yes, you're so gorgeous, who doesn't have a crush on you?" I don't know, most people probably don't. "Your mum?" I jokingly ask in reply and we both laugh. 

And that's the beginning of a beautiful love story...
