TWISTED // Dylan O' Brien

2 // New Student

The three of them knocked on the door to make sure they could come in. Mrs. Brown nodded in agreement. As soon as April and Louise sat down at their desk, mrs. Brown looks at April. As soon as she does that she says 'So, Dylan, this is April.'

April shyly waves at him and smiles. He looks at her and smiles back. 'W. O. W.  Well, he's cute. He seems a fun dude to be honest. Even if he's not, he's still such a hottie!' April thinks to herself.

'April is going to be your guide for the week. To lead you to your classrooms. Luckily you both have the same classes so that's handy', Mrs. Brown says and smiles. 'She's also going to tell you the rules here in school in case you don't know them.'

He nods and smiles at mrs. Brown and then at April. She shyly smiles back. 'He seems kind of nervous. But yeah, that's kind of normal if you're at a new school with all new people you'll get to meet. I mean, I would probably be nervous too.'

While mrs. Brown talks to Dylan, a lot of other people walk into the classroom. After 5 minutes they stopped talking. Dylan went to take a seat next to April and Louise went to sit next to Fred. When mrs. Brown finally wanted to begin with class, Tyler casually walks in class with a big grin on his face like nothing is happening. Mrs. Brown sighs and says "Tyler,when will you ever learn to be on time? Detention. Again.'

'So, Dylan,' April says and he looks at her and smiles. She points at Tyler and says 'That's Tyler. He's kind of the badass of our class. Or school.' 

He nods. 'I can see. How many times a day does he get detetention?' he says, smiling. 'You can't even count', she replies, chuckling. 'I already thought so.. What do you think of talking a bit and introduce ourselves after school?' he suddenly asks her smiling, already feeling a little bit more comfortable. 'Yeah, cool. At my place?' she asks him, smiling. He nods.

'So, are you actually good in maths?' April asks. Because maths isn't really her favourite subject. All those lines and numbers... 'Yeah, I actually am, but I don't want to sound like a nerd or something', he replies and raises his eyebrow. 'You?' 'Not really to be honest. It's just so complicated sometimes.' April says being a bit shy.

'Well if you don't understand something... I can maybe help you?' Dylan offers her.

'Yeah, cool. That would be really handy!' she says being way too excited. Mrs. Brown already looks at her with a confused look. April shyly look away and open takes notes. Out of the blue, she smiles because this Dylan guy is a lot more attractive and fun than she ever thought he would be.

After a lot of classes and some boring lessons,  school was over for today! Louise , Dylan and April were walking to their lockers. Dylan's locker is right next to April's and Louise's is  across theirs. They take all of the books they need out of their locker and put them in their backbags.

'Hey, so who are the guys were I can hang out with? Like, the fun dudes' Dylan asks April and smiles but as soon as I look him in the eyes, he looks away. 'Well uhm, that's kind of a hard question. Our school excists of assholes and dickheads so uhm yeah... Maybe Fred or Steven or Matt or uhmm... yeah, they're fun', she replies, not knowing the guys she said that well - except for Fred - but they seem fun. 'Okay cool', he says and puts his backbag easily over his shoulder.

Louise, Dylan and April walk out school, on their way to the girls' apartment. It isn't that tidy but yeah, Dylan just has to deal with it though.

As soon as Dylan sees the girls' apartment, April and Louise already had this grin on their faces. The one that says 'yeah we know it isn't that tidy but you just have to deal with it,find your way to a chair and just ignore the mess around you'. He obviously didn't agree with that last part because he didn't ignored the mess around him.

'So, uhh' he says while looking up , looking at April and Louise and then back at April. 'Do you guys live here? All by yourselves?' he says looking around. 'Yup', Louise says while popping the p.

'Cool', he says, smiling. 'Pretty cool', April say grinning. 'So uhm let's uhm, yeah, talk?' April adds being the awkward person she is. Becaue if you need an awkward conversation? Call April and she will make your conversation awkward in just one second! Ugh. Dylan chuckles and says 'Yeah, sounds good.'

... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...

'Do you play any instruments?' He asks April while sipping from his glass of water. 'No, I wish I do but I just don't have any time for it, I mean, look at this place... I don't even have time to clean',  she says, laughing. He chuckles. 'Well okay, mum', he says chuckling. 'Do you?' she asks him, smiling while looking into his beautiful brown eyes.

'Yeah, I play the drums and I'm currently learning how to play the guitar.' 'So you sing too or?' April asks being very curious. 'Yeah I like to sing but that doesn't mean I can sing that well but yeah', he says with a smile on his face. 'Well then I guess you should-'

'April!' Louise yells really loud even though the they are both in the same room. When April doesn't responds immediately she yells again. 'Help, April!' She screams again.

April runs to her. 'What's wrong?' She asks being really worried. 'French is killing me', she replies and pouts. 'Really, Louise? Is that it?' April says and chuckles. She just rolls her eyes.'Do you know how to say 'In our apartment we have alot of mess.' in French?' She says. 'Uhm...Dans notre appartement, nous avons beaucoup de.... uhh' April says but can't find the word 'messs in French.

'Why won't you just use google transl-'

'désordre' Dylan suddenly says while standing behind April. She turns around and looks at him with a raised eyebrow. 'You can speak French too?' She asks, still raising her eyebrow. 'Yeah...' He starts off being a bit embarassed. 'It was just a joke, don't be shy, I think that's very cool, really!'

'Well I'm not that  good! But I lived in France for a year...' He says feeling awkward, April can tell. 'That's so cool! Why'd you moved to France?' she ask him being really curious. 'April, you're such a curious girl', Louise says and laughs at her own remark.

'I am born in America. When I was 15 years old we moved to France. Last year, we moved back to America, here, but uhm, yeah, I didn't really liked uhm, the school I was going to so uhh, yeah, now I am here.' He being really uncomfortable.

April could already tell he was hiding something. 'Wow! But, what do you mean that you don't liked your school?' she asks him and raises her eyebrow. While she does that, she carefully leans against the table. 'Yeah, long story', He says trying to change the subject. But that obviously isn't going to work for April. Na-ah.

'Just tell me. I want to get to know you. I mean, that's easier to lead you around school. So we can be friends and talk you know?' I say. God that sounded like some kid show sentence. He sighs. 'Okay. But, can we sit down please? I mean just for-'

'Yeah sure.' I say and smile.

'You got bullied?!' April says being really shocked. 'Yeah...' Dylan says being shy and kind of sad. April  swear she saw tears in his eyes.

'Why?!' she asks him, still shocked. 'They thought I was weird because I wrote my own songs and because I believed in myself that one day, I'll make it. And I guess they're right...' He says, sighing. 'But Dylan,no!'

'That's not true! I believe in you. I never heard you sing or something but I do believe in you. Don't let them tell you what you should do! You're amazing. I already know that. They're stupid as fuck', April says, growing angrier and angrier.

Dylan chuckles a bit. "Thanks, April. You know, you're so funny when you're mad.' He says chuckling. 'Thanks?'
