Chapter 4
The next few days went by like a blur. Today is Friday the day of the gig at the premiere and I'm dead excited. I love going on stage and everyone and everything causing you problems will disappear like they never existed.
I was sitting in English when I first seen him. To be honest he looked like he belonged here at school I mean he could have been here to pick someone up or something because it was the last class of the day.
I was pushed out of my thoughts when the bell rang and I started packing up my books and made my way to the door.
Drake, aren't you forgetting something? Mrs Hayfer asked me.
No, I already know that you hate me." I replied in a smug voice.
"Not just that. You have detention with me now" she replied in an equal smug tone.
"See ya Drake" josh said not wanting to get into trouble.
Josh walked away leaving me with Mrs Hayfer. I rolled my eyes and threw my backpack onto the floor by the desk.
"Now Drake. I know you have a so called life outside of school but here you listen to my rules and obey them without question. So here's what you're your going do for the next 45 minutes, see the gum under the tables I want you to scrape it of every single bit are you'll be here next week as well."
I lifted up the scraper and started at the tables closet to the left. Every few minutes she made sure I knew how much she hated me all the while I replied 'I know'
An hour later I was home again where the tension was once again building. I asked mum into the kitchen to ask her something.
"mum look I actually can't stand it here with all the tension about these could you please talk about it with them tonight while im at the concert?"
Yeah sure, I'm sorry I haven't got talking to you on your own lately I just thought you would need some space after everything. I'm very proud of you telling them that, I know how hard it must have been for you." she said while pulling me into a hug.
Thanks and I'm sorry I didn't tell you everything that happened I just didn't want you worrying since you had Megan to care for."
I went upstairs to get ready for the concert tonight I wanted to get there early.
I heard Megan walk in from oboe practise and say 'Hey boob' to Josh and walk upstairs to her room. Probably going to start her homework, like a good little girl.
2 1/2 hours later I was at the premiere ready for my concert. Helen was up on stage introducing us.
"now here is a boy very dear to my own heart. Give it up for Drake Parker and his band whose names I do not now." she walked of stage with her head down and me and my band walked on to a roaring applause. I grabbed the microphone.
"good evening everybody! Were going to start of with one of the first songs I wrote called 'I found a way' hope you guys like it."
I never thought that it'd be so simple butI found a way, I found a wayI always thought that it'd be too crazy butI found a way, I found a wayIf you open up your mindSee what's insideIt's gonna take some time, to re-alignBut if you look inside, I'm sure you'll findOver your shoulder you know that, I told youI'll always be pickin' you up when you're downSo just turn aroundNow that I know that anything's possibleI found a way, I found a wayNo one can break what is so unbreakableI found a way, I found a wayIf you open up your mindSee what's insideIt's gonna take some time, to re-alignBut if you look inside, I'm sure you'll findOver your shoulder you know that, I told youI'll always be pickin' you up when you're downSo just turn aroundNo one caresWhat you giveYou know you gotta live like you wanna liveWhen it's timeTo be freeYou know you gotta be what you wanna beIf you open up your mindSee what's insideIt's gonna take some time, to re-alignBut if you look inside, I'm sure you'll findOver your shoulder you know that, I told youI'll always be pickin' you up when you're downSo just turn around.
A few hours later we were walking of the stage again when I seen him again. His cold blue emotionless eyes staring straight at me. I didn't know who he was but it kept bugging me through the night. When the after party was over I was walking out to my car when I seen him for the third time today. He was standing under one of the street lights dressed completely in black like some spy or something.
I just shrugged it of and turned around with my hands in my pockets trying to find my keys. It was harder than what people would think with so many girls phone numbers. I finally found them and was about to unlock the car door when I was knocked over the head with something heavy.
