Chapter TWO

The Song *

Running through the hallway again hoping to see Mr. Charming, but that didn't work.

I walked into music class,with my eyes glued to the floor as I walked towards an empty sit.

"Miss Elvis". Our music teacher..I guess called me by my surname

"Yes ma'am?"

"So ,you're the new student everyone's talking about".

What?why is everyone talking about me?.i whispered underneath my breath.

"Anyways welcome to Holland high's music class,kindly introduce yourself"... She smiled warmly at me.

"o..okay". I stuttered becoming shy.

"Come on...don't be shy they're not like the other kids they won't make fun of you".She whispered in my ears.

"Hmm"...I cleared my throat ..."My name is Samantha Elvis,a citizen of America.. I became 18 yesterday".I rushed over my words as if not wanting them to hear a thing.

"awwn"...the class chorused.

"Happy birthday,Miss Elvis we love you"...our teacher smiled again.

"T..thank you Ma'am"

"Happy birthday Samantha".The class chorused.

"T..th..thanks everyone". I replied shyly.

"Okay,Anyone has a question for our new friend?,anyone?"..Mrs Josephine asked the class.

"What's your favourite colour?". the question made me raise my head a bit..it was a guy sitting on the first seat in front .

"I..it's Black".

"cool ". He replied.

"That's Daniel".I just nodded in response.

"Hey Samantha,am Evelyn..do you have a crush In this class"...she asked taking me by surprise..

"Evelyn, don't you think that's going too far"..our teacher scolded.

"Not to worry Ma'am"...I turned to Evelyn and forced a small smile at the corner of my lips..

"Not yet". I replied.

"Okay"..she chuckled...this one sure seems like a talkative..better stay away..I said in my thoughts.

"So,Miss Elvis..Since it your first time in my class,it's a tradition that you have to sing just one song for us".

"ugh!!". My heart was now racing...oh my gosh am so shy.

"O..okay". I spoke up as I focused only on my fingers.

"So am gonna love you

Like am gonna loose you

Am gonna hold you

Like am saying goodbye.

Wherever we're standing

I won't take you for granted

Cause we never know when

when we'll run out of time,So am gonna

Love you.

I sang.as the queit class was followed with loud cheering and heartwarming comments.

I finally looked up and my eyes locked with those crystal blue I couldn't take my eyes away not until he winked at me .

*Ahhh*!!!..I mentally screamed...I might pass out.

"Miss Elvis". our teacher called bringing me back to reality.

"Y..yes ma'am"... I stuttered again almost dying of embarrassment.

"You can take you sit now ".she gestured for me to sit on the empty chair in front of Hoodie Guy.

"Any special song?". Miss Josephine asked the class again.

"There's a hope that's waiting for you in the

dark

You should know you're beautiful just the

you are

You don't have to change a thing,the world

could change it's hear.

No scars to your beautiful

We're stars,and we're beautiful ".by Alessia Cara

I couldn't be anymore surprised when I looked back and saw that it was Mr. Charming...but everyone including Mrs Josephine looked more surprised than I was.

"T..thanks". I spoke up not even knowing that a tear had left my eye.

He only winked again and gosh my cheeks were burning as I tore my gaze from him.

"Am surprised Mr. Hoodie Guy,i never knew behind the piano and mask was a very lovely voice thank you for welcoming our new friend".Miss Josephine smiled brightly.

So the Hoodie Guy must be his nick name,guess I got it right...I also heard some girls gossiping about how how only a few people(the school authorities mostly) knows what he looks like ... seems like he doesn't engage with people in school a lot.

Throughout the class I felt his gaze piercing me, every now and then I felt butterflies Im my tummy ...am crazy...am falling for a guy with an unknown Identity.

*EX*

I ran to the washroom after music class ended.

"OMG!!"..I screamed .

"He's in my class...he's in my class".I sang.

"Wait"....he even heard me sing..aww,I feel like flying". I said to myself in the mirror,using my Hands to cove my face in a childish manner.

I left for the cafeteria,even if I was not hungry,I decided to read a book before break time ends..I sat on an empty bench....and just as I was reading I sensed a presence behind me .

Immediately I got up on my feet and turned around just to face my worst nightmare...the guy who I thought I left In my past memories,the guy who almost ended my future...I'd be a mum now,if not for our class president back then in Grade 10...
