Addy's Lullaby

Addy's Lullaby Chapter 2

We got to school and the boy and I walked off the bus and into school. He looked at me and said, "Can you point me into the direction of where the counselor's office would be? I need to get my schedule." I slightly smiled and said, "Sure it's over here by the office." I pointed to the counselors and asked, "Hey wait new kid, if you're gonna sit by me on the bus do you have a name?" He smiled and said, "Ashton, my name is Ashton. And you are?" I blushed lightly and said, "Pleasure Ashton, I'm Addy. See you around." He walked off and I walked to class. While walking I couldn't help but notice my face was kinda hot. I pulled out my phone and looked into the screen and noticed myself blushing. Oh god no, you just met him! I thought. He is really cute though.. I walked to class and sat at my seat waiting for my Art teacher to walk in. He came in set paints on his desk and said, "Draw something creative.. Something you think is inspirational." I thought about it and grabbed a paintbrush and paints, grabbed a canvas and started painting a ring. Not just any ring, my grandmother's who seemed to be a "witch" to my mother. My mother and her never really seemed to get along although she was a very sweet old woman. Whenever we would visit she would give us presents and chat with my mom over tea. But about two years ago my grandmother had been diagnosed with cancer and had died the next week. No one even knew how she died, because the doctor had said she would have three and a half years left. Anyway, I started painting the ring, and about fourty-five minutes later the bell rang. School ended and it was time to get back on the bus. Ashton was already in the back waiting for me. My cheeks flushed red and I quickly walked back there, wanting to know more about him. He smiled at me and said, "Hey there cherry-cheeks." I again blushed and cursed my cheeks in my mind. "Hey have a good first day?" He frowned and said, "Kinda. I didn't really get to see any of my classes, but I will tomorrow." I smiled slightly and said, "Alright, well I would ask if you wanted to listen to music, but the school jerk up there, Tanner Scapps broke my headphones." He smiled and said, "That's alright, I have my headphones." He handed me one of the earbuds and put the other in his ear, he scrolled through his music and started playing some death-metal screamo stuff and I smiled to myself thinking, Yep he is definitely adorable and just my type. The bus stopped at my stop and I got up but got quickly surprised that little new boy Ashton, lives right next to me!
