Chapter 1-Music is the opening of the first crush.

New York's Musical Hall, New York.

Thomas Gregory Edison, or simply known as Thomas Edison is a music composer and melody arranger who worked with the most well-known music producer company in America. Not just that, he also able to conduct as music coordinator for orchestral type. Since he liked Mozart and Beethoven very much, he learned all of their music sheets and practised the rhythm. Eventually, he able to perform it.

However, he is 17 years old and naturally, he is a student. Currently he studying in the high school since this year would be his last year in school life. He will proceed to university in the next year so he had to focus more on school while he had to put all the music stuffs aside. Because of his spirit that typically 'never die', he has pledging to himself that he wanted to conduct further study in major music. Theoretically, he still excelled in the other subject especially in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. These were his favourite subjects.

"It is not like that my friends. When you play a waltz music, you all have to feel the rhythm behind the notes. It is not about how well you play this song, but it is how you express it in the terms of feelings. Waltz is about happiness and joy." Commented Thomas politely. He's currently conducting a training with his orchestra group. It is for the gala night at his school. Actually, his school principal has hired him to conduct a music performance for the event especially for the dance segment.

"I want you to play this song once again. But this time, don't make the same mistake. Remember the important thing, waltz is about feeling. Alright?"

The orchestra members nodded with order as they ready with their own music instruments. Thomas took his wooden stick and they began playing the song.

…

The Next Day, At the Glade High School.

Thomas was walking along the hallway towards the canteen since the recess time has just began. His stomach was grumbling so much that he couldn't take it longer. Coincidentally, he haven't eat anything from this early morning. He really concerned about his health until, he became paranoid if he didn't eat nor drink for at least a little bit. That's described his life, smart and open minded but quite nerdy.

"Are you sure about this, Thomas?" An Asian male suddenly approached him and asked directly towards him.

Thomas looked at him, nodding convincingly, "Of course I would. You know, I have been practising with my team for the event since last week. I really want my team to get success because they are the next heir of the musical world."

He is Minho, one of Thomas's best friend. He knew him since they met for the first time in the first year in high school. From most of Thomas's friends, only Minho knew his life story and his internal status. That what made them really close.

"Oh yeah, where's Alby?" Asked Thomas.

Minho replied, "Alby had a meeting with the student council. Frypan, Brenda and Teresa also involved with the council. So he couldn't join us now."

"That's really sad because the today's lunch is very delicious. I am very excited to have that meal because I have wanting it so much."

During the lunch break, Minho and Thomas were talking about many things. It seemed that they both have such a big gossip that it could make the world exploded. Whatever it is, Thomas liked to share it with his friends because to him, it was very fun. However, under one circumstance, he got really sensitive when it came about the relationship.

As being expected, Minho began asking him, "I know you still looking for a boyfriend, doesn't you?"

Thomas's expression changed in a blink of eye. Since he found out that he was at the 'outside world', out of nature, he felt that he got being isolated from the people and he really afraid if they stepped on him just because for that reason. The truth is, Thomas is homosexual and he could only get interest in boys but not for girls. He had given up upon survival with the girls because none of his ex-girlfriends could make him happy. All of them were ended up by breaking up the relationship.

"Not for that question, Minho. I still don't want to answer it. Just accept the reality that I am belong from 10 percent people with the same relationship. Just, cut off that issue." The brunette made his words, as he began to get off from the chair and leaving the cafeteria.

"Oh yeah, one more thing Minho. Don't forget with the thing that I told you to bring."

Minho just complied with the reminder as he smiled, "Always being noted inside my brain you smart guy."

…

It wasn't long time after that when Thomas walked passing through the music hall. He suddenly saw a group of students were playing the music instruments with being conducted by the senior music teacher which also became Thomas's mentor, Ava Paige. He listened to the song that they were currently playing on. It really caught his ears when he felt ease with the song they brought.

"Canon in D, Johann Pachelbel." Thomas monologue.

Actually it was not only his true intention to listen the most peaceful song when, as he looked through the whole students inside the room, he suddenly caught a sight towards the blonde male that holding the violin. For the first time in his life as a human, that blonde had caught his attention for the first time. He stared towards him for how long? A while?

He completely focusing his attention towards him, watching him playing the violin. It was very professional from his thought. The way he held the instrument, focusing towards it has made himself fell down.

" ?" Suddenly Ava Paige greeted him at the door. The brunette quickly snapped out from staring at that blonde as he turned his sight at his mentor.

He greeted back, "H-Hi, Madam Paige. I-It is great to meet you again."

"What are you doing outside the room?" She asked him. The students including the blonde were looking at him.

He answered, "N-Nothing ma'am. Just listening to this song and it brought me here. It is very peaceful version."

"I know that you really missed WCKD. Don't worry, Thomas. Soon we will reunite back and make a brand new team with such an outstanding refreshment." She laughed uncontrollably.

But she continued, "Oh, speaking about you being here. How about I introduce you to my students? You should be proud that you have become the world's topic because of your outstanding ability since from world's orchestra championship."

Thomas got shocked. He stammered, declining her offer, "I-It's okay ma'am. M-Maybe you should continue the lesson. I just got here by."

Without warning, she quickly grabbed his hand and pulled him inside. Thomas's heart was beating really fast because he will meet with them. He never being introduced by anyone before and it what makes him felt very shy and afraid. What he feared most, he will meet with the blonde that caught his attention earlier.

"Students, apologise with the interruption just now. You see, I just brought this person here. Do you know who is he?"

All of them were shrugging their shoulders, indicating that they didn't know anything about Thomas. Thomas just stood firm, as his shy still controlling himself. He was obviously trembling that made them chuckled a bit including the blonde.

Ava began to introduce him, "If you want to know, he is the composer of the most famous epic song 'Pillars of The Earth', the leader of WCKD Orchestra team, Thomas Gregory Edison."

One of the student was speechless, "Shut up…."

"I can't believe it's him. Is it really…him?!" A female student was dumbfounded.

The blonde also shocked with the information. Thomas Edison was the composer that he really admired. He couldn't believe that he will meet him face to face, standing in front of him.

Thomas just waving his hand towards them, chuckling shyly, "E-Eheheh, h-hi students. I'm Thomas Edison. And I am really honoured to meet with you."

…

"Alright students, now I want you to play the song back. Thomas will coordinate you if there is any mistakes you have committed." Said Ava with her coordinator stick on her hand. She began to swing the stick softly as the song began to play. They currently playing Canon in D.

But unfortunately, Thomas wasn't paying his full attention at the students since his eyes were only looking at the blonde. He watched every moment he played the violin. Not just that, he also looked at his face, how cute he was. Along the song, a smile always carving on his face.

To be honest, he really liked the way he played the song. And…without being realised, his face suddenly became hot and flustered. Every sight that he used to stare at the blonde, the heat on his face kept increasing. He got no idea what's gotten into him suddenly. But, everything was answered when he opened the selfie camera on his phone, he noticed he was totally blushing.

'It's just…coincidence…'
