Never Ending Dark

Chapter Six: Hello New Dude

"Crap, I'm so sorry I wasn't paying attention where I was going didn't see you" I said. "It's all good I Honestly wasn't paying much attention there ether". I was looking for my class. He said in a deep tone that sent shivers down my spine, sadly with my sucky luck he noticed that.

"You good there?" He smirked. " Oh y- yeah I'm fine just a little cold that's all". 'well don't I feel embarrassed now' I thought. "What class do you have?". "Uuuh... Choir I think, he answered, "I'm still trying to figure out how to read the schedule". 'WHAT! Hold up are you telling me this new guy can sing and is in my class'.

"Here let me see your schedule." He handed it to me and believe it or not there it was Choir Second Hour. "Yep you got Choir here I'll take you there". "Thanks but don't you have class?" He asked looking curious. "We have have the same class" I say while I start walking away from him.

He stood there for a sec and realized I was ahead and jogged up to catch up with me. "So I didn't catch your name". He said when he was right beside me walking my pace. I smirked when he said that so smoothly, "I'm Kristi but go by Kris for a nickname." I say simply. "Well Kristi I'm Blake but I go by Blade."

"Cool, why Blade though?" I asked. "It's my stage name. I like it way better than the other name." "Stage name" I say blankly, "what you in a band or something?" "You can say that." He replied and that took me back.

Not only is he really cute but he's in a band, I'm interested in him a smidge more now. plus he has this atmosphere around him I can't quite explain yet, which is weird because I can usually read and explain anyone's atmosphere, facial and body expression.

This guy is so hard to read and such a mystery it makes my head hurt. "So where did you move here from Blade, And why move to such a deadbeat place, I mean don't get me wrong the people here are great, just not much to do sadly." "Well lets see I was having some issues at my old school in Chicago. So we decided to move here and get away from that city lot of crime and not so nice people".

"Yeah I get that, well welcome to KC hope you like it so far." We came to a stop by the class, "And here's the Choir Room." "You'll like it and the teacher Mrs.Clark is really sweet and is pretty serious when it comes to this class, so head's up on that. With that said I favor that about her and if your just as serious about this as she is and about the class you'll be fine." I smile a little. He smiles back and said "ok lets do this" as we walked in the class.

"Ahhh Kristi I was wondering where you were" Mrs.Clark said. "Sorry Mrs.C I had to run back to my locker and get my music, and on my way I bumped in to our new student and had to show him here". "No problem honey I'm just glad your here today, It's good to see your doing better and came to school." "Me two Mrs.C" I replied, and this is when she looked behind me and locked eye contact with Blade the new-be.

"And you are?" she asked, "Oh my apologies I'm Blake Henry but I go by Blade, its nice to meet you Mrs.Clark right?" he asked. as I went to my seat in the soprano's by Scar that was staring at me with amazed eyes and a huge smirk on the dumb face of hers.

I looked at her right in the eyes and flashed her a (Don't You Dare Even Start Look) and took my seat to see her out of the corner of my eye still smiling like an idiot. 'Maaan why does she have to be like this, she knows I have trust issues. She's sitting here looking like I'm gonna get with this new guy named Blade in five seconds. That or she's coming up with a plan to get me with him but I can tell her one thing this is sooo not going to happen.

I've been through too much to make the same mistakes again. Especially what happened with my Dad is one of the main reasons why I have these trust issues. As I was thinking this I overheard Mrs.C telling to Blade to go wait for her at the piano to settle him ether as an tenor or a bass for the guy's.

I sat there waiting for her to start Blade with the warm ups to see what high and low notes he could hit including how long he could with the notes. His voice was so smooth and warm. I know this is weird to say but his voice was like hot chocolate, warm and smooth and so sweet to hear. He turned out to be a tenor and was sat close to me in the row behind me I was amazed by his voice it sounded so low when he talks but so light and elegant when he sings, there was no way to really explain it accept for amazing.

I was kind of mesmerized but hey, you know these thing happen I guess. The class went on and we went through all of our new music we were going to do for the concert coming up in about three month's. Not much time so we had to get the lyrics down so we can get the melody perfected.

All Blade had to do for this whole week was get the words memorized for the five songs we were singing. But the strange thing was I felt like someone was watching me a lot through the whole class hour it was... creepy. The class was almost over with only five minutes left so we packed up our music and settled down to catch our breaths and rest for a bit.

"Kris can you stay after class for a minute and you too Blade I have an idea" sure Mrs.C I said and I sighed heavily... I wonder what she wants and with Him to I thought. Scar was staring at me very hard like she was trying to control my mind, "WHAAAAT????" I said a Little too loud and people looked in our direction for a few seconds and went back to their conversations.

"Ooooh nothing" she said. "You just don't look to amused to stay back today." "well I'm still a little sick and I don't want to sing anymore than I already have that's all." I replied. "Sure, sure, or is it because the new kid has to stay back to?" "It's not that I'm just to tired Scar I actually like the new kid so far he seems cool but that's all."

The bell finally rings after a few seconds and people flooded to the door to meet with their friends and go to next hour . But 'NOOO' not me I have to stay back and see what crazy plan Mrs.C has cooking up in that noggin of her's.
