The Boy Next Door

After that rude announcement. I barged in and flung the door so hard it hit the wall and made a painting fall down. Oh well, I'm already in trouble right?

"What did you do this time Veronica?" he sighed, as usual. I'm a regular in here, I come in at least once a week. Why can't he just expel me already. I walked inside, slumped my body on the wooden chair in front of his desk and rested my feet on top of the table.

"Veronica, take your feet off my desk, it's not polite especially if your a woman" Ignoring what he said, I began to explain the misunderstanding that happened in English

"As you know, Mrs.Hollows is a grade A bi-"
"VERONICA!"
"Whatever, you get what I mean. So basically I was late and she had one of her daily b-i-t-c-h fits"

He sighed again, everyone seems to do that when they're around me.

"It's such a shame you know, Your grades are outstanding, but your attitude and behavior is the problem."
"thanks?"
"no suspension this time, get back to class and try not to be back in here until next week, please"
"Can't promise anything old man"

And with that, I left the stupid office, flipped off Doris and headed to music. Finally a lesson I enjoy.

I was supposed to go back to English but I'm not in the mood to tolerate Mrs.Hollow's bullshit anymore. I arrived outside the music room and walked in, No one was inside. I knew Mr.Spencer, the music teacher, wouldn't mind me staying inside because I practically live here. Every lunch break we have, I spend in here playing the guitar or singing. Non one else comes here while I'm here. Mr.Spencer leaves a spare key with me so I don't have to keep nagging at him to come in. He's probably my favourite teacher, wait no he is my favourite.

I grabbed an acoustic guitar, dumped my bag on the floor and sat at the corner of the music room. I didn't really know what I was doing until I found myself playing 'Sleepwalking' by Bring Me The Horizon, I quietly started singing the lyrics as I closed my eyes

"My secrets are burning a hole through my heart
And my bones catch a fever
When it cuts you up this deep
It's hard to find a way to breathe

Your eyes are swallowing me
Mirrors start to whisper
Shadows start to sing
My skin's smothering me
Help me find a way to breathe

Time stood still
The way it did before
It's like I'm sleepwalking
Fell into another hole again
It's like I'm sleepwalking

I'm at the edge of the world
Where do I go from here?
Do I disappear?
Edge of the world
Should I sink or swim?
Or simply disappear?

Your eyes are swallowing me
Mirrors start to whisper
Shadows start to sing
My skin's smothering me
Help me find a way to breathe


Time stood still
The way it did before
It's like I'm sleepwalking
Fell into another hole again
It's like I'm sleepwalking

Wake up!
Take my hand and
Give me a reason to start again
Wake up!
Pull me out and
Give me a reason to start again

Time stands still
Time stands still
Time stands still
Time stands still

Your eyes are swallowing me
Mirrors start to whisper
Shadows start to sing
My skin's smothering me
Help me find a way to breathe

Time stood still
The way it did before
It's like I'm sleepwalking
Fell into another hole again
It's like I'm sleepwalking
It's like I'm sleepwalking
It's like I'm sleepwalking
It's like I'm sleepwalking

Time stood still
The way it did before
It's like I'm sleepwalking...."

Huh, I actually sounded like an actual person this time, usually I'd sound like some dying whale that was washed ashore, no one else has ever heard me sing and I don't intend to ever show them. I opened my eyes and almost had a fucking heart attack, How the fuck did he even get here. Oh wait, I'm still in school. I didn't even hear the door.
"wowww, you're amazing"
"h-how long were y-"
"long enough,.. Your voice is like a fucking angel and I'm not just saying this because i want to get in your pants"
"thanks?" wait did he just say he wanted to get in my pants?
"so are you always like this?"
Just as he said those few words, a sea of students filled the music room and sat in their seats, waiting for the lesson to begin.
"not today Frankiepoo" I winked at him, put the guitar back in it's case and made my way to my seat.
"its Frank, dipshit"
"whatever asshat"


"Okay class today I'm going to pair you up, You will have to compose a song together with lyrics and all that crap, yada yada yada you get what I mean. Okayy so...."

"Ryan and Ashley
Liz and Emily....."

Blablabla I do not care about the others

"Frank and Veronica..."
