Beautiful Curves

The Music Room

Sarai's POV

I walked over to the grand piano, completely mesmerized just by the sight of it. I had a keyboard at home that I bought a while back, but it's nothing compared to the original. I looked at my phone and saw that it was 3:11. The school locks up at 4:30 so I had plenty of time to relax here. I sat down on the seat and closed my eyes. This was the place where I could let all of my insecurities and all my struggles out. I felt safe here, well when there was no one around. I opened my eyes and turned towards the piano, putting my fingers on the keys. I was only good at playing one particular song, which I had taught myself how to over the years. I smiled as I began to play.

Mackenzie's POV

It was hard to concentrate during class. Sarai's words kept replaying in my head, causing a massive headache. I thought back to how her eyes looked. They were filled with nothing but hatred. I tried to find even the slightest bit of forgiveness, but there was none. I honestly don't blame her. Every word she had said was true. I was so much into thought that I didn't even notice the final bell ring. My friend shook me, making my headache worsen.

"Hey man are you alright?" Instead of responding I just walked away. I really didn't want to deal with people right now. I exited my last period class and walked to my locker. The sound of heels clacking against the floor could be heard down the hall. I braced myself for whatever Heather had to say.

"Heeeyyy sweety." Speak of the devil.

I kept quiet and continued to take the books I needed out of my locker.

"Omg today at lunch was hilarious! The cow deserved it."

My jaw clenched out of anger. I didn't know why but Heather was really pissing me off more than usual.

"Anyway try to keep your little sister away from me during practice. She creeps me out. And you better have food."

That did it. The bottle that I had used to keep my true emotions in just exploded. I slammed my locker and looked at her.

"How fucking dare you insult my sister and fucking demand food after it! You know what, you're not even going to be at my house because you are out of the group. I never want to speak to you or even see you ever again. What you did in the cafeteria to Sarai was low even for you. Just because she fucking insulted you doesn't mean you make a laughing stock out of her! And so what if she said some shit, no one is going to remember it. But what you did today will be remembered for a long time, all because of your fucking social status!" People were beginning to stare, but I couldn't give less of a fuck. Heather looked at me, somewhat at a loss for words. She furrowed her brows and spoke.

"But you're the one who agreed to help with this. You're just as much to blame!"

"I wasn't paying attention when you told me about it because you fucking talk too much! Yes, it is my fault for not listening. But I was going to ask you during lunch before this shit happened but you wanted to interrupt like you always do and fucking take action!" I'm wasting my time here. Good-fucking-bye."

Before she could say anything else I walked away. I could hear her yelling at me, but she never made the slightest move to run after me. I was glad about that because I was just one second away from throwing my bag at her face. Still hearing her yelling, I quickly went up the stairs to the second floor. Once I reached the top, I leaned against the wall and sighed. I looked around and saw that there was barley anyone here. I slid down and sat on the floor, closing my eyes to calm down my enormous migraine. Minutes later, I could hear a piano being played. I opened my eyes and stood up. I checked my phone. It was only 3:13, so it wasn't strange that someone was still here. I followed the sound of the piano, leading me to the Music Room.
