Before you start reading this, remember that I don't play the guitar and I have no idea if S/C/A/R/E/C/R/O/W is in fact easy to play (it can be the hardest MCR song to play in the guitar as far as I know) but I really liked the idea of Castiel getting pissed at Eleanor and saying "s forward slash c forward slash a forward slash r forward slash e forward slash c forward slash r forward slash o forward slash w all in capital letters".

Anyway, enjoy, and don't forget to review

"I- what?" Castiel asked Eleanor, confused and still a little surprised by the sudden request.

"You said you'd teach me if I cut my nails. So, teach me"

"I can't just teach you! You don't even know how to read music sheets or the notes - I mean, to be honest I didn't think I'd get this far, I just said that to get you to shut up. Why did you do it?"

"Because you asked me to"

…

Something nice out of the blue.

"Alright, I admit it" Eleanor continued, sitting in front of him "I was a bit stupid, but you could teach me to play just a song. How about that? I wouldn't have to have any musical preparation or whatever"

"Okay" Castiel sighed, giving in "Pick an easy one"

"How about The Light Behind Your Eyes?"

"I said an easy one. And I don't know how to play it; I'd have to study it first"

"Um… which My Chemical Romance slow songs do you know how to play?"

"Disenchanted?"

"C'mon, something more epic"

"How about Scarecrow? It's not that difficult"

"Okay. But according to the song title, it's not 'scarecrow'"

"Oh, I'm sorry" Castiel apologised sarcastically, rolling his eyes " s forward slash c forward slash a forward slash r forward slash e forward slash c forward slash r forward slash o forward slash w all in capital letters - fuck off, it's scarecrow"

"I know, I just wanted to see your reaction"

"You are a twat"

"You are no fun. Remember, sense of humour makes life better"

"You are Scottish. You're not allowed to have a sense of humour. Start complaining, that's more Scottish"

"No, in this relationship you're more Scottish than I am"

"Shut up" Castiel shoved his acoustic guitar in Eleanor's hand and got up to get his electric one. He sat in front of her, getting ready to start teaching her the chords when he remembered something.

"Fuck!" He screamed "You're right-handed right?"

"Um, yeah"

"Then this will be a little bit more difficult. For starters, you are now holding this wrong" Castiel turned the guitar so Eleanor was now holding the neck with her left hand, not her right like Castiel was "You are lucky I use a normal guitar, but I basically play upside down"

"Why don't you buy a leftie guitar?"

"Because the ones that I can afford are shit, though my guitar is shit, those are shittier. Left handed guitars are usually custom made, therefore, more expensive. Anywho, let's just get started" Castiel positioned his own fingers on the chords "Do this but in the upper chords"

Eleanor pressed the chords Castiel showed her, but the boy sighed loudly, putting his guitar aside and repositioning Eleanor's fingers himself.

"Can't you mirror things?" The boy snapped at her and went back to his place.

"Oh sorry, it's okay, I got it now!"

"Alright, now strum" He did it first and Eleanor followed "Good, that's a D. Now do it seven more times"

"What?!"

"Do it" Eleanor did it and looked at Castiel "Okay now press this chords and strum" Castiel moved his fingers and Eleanor mirrored it, then she strummed "Now do it four more times and then repeat from the top"

Eleanor did what he asked her to. It sounded a little rusty and it took her forever to move her fingers from chord to chord, but after a few times, when she was doing it a little bit faster Castiel started playing with her, equally slow.

"Move your body when the sunlight dies" The boy started singing "Everybody, hide your body from the scarecrow. Everybody, hide"

"I played the chorus!"

"You played the chorus"

Eleanor suddenly got up and pulled Castiel up with her, throwing her arms around the tall boys neck and squealing "thankyouthankyouthankyou"

"I – I just t-taught you how to play a chorus, it's no big deal. We still have the rest of the song"

"Sorry, I got excited I was able to play something. A monkey would probably have done better, but… I'm happy"

"No, you were slightly better than a monkey"

Eleanor looked at him in the eyes and gave him an enormous smile, causing the black haired boy to blush. Slightly. Almost unnoticeable. Castiel Parker did not blush.

"Guys, we should probably go. Lunch break is almost over" Lysander said in a calm voice. Oh right, Lys has been here all along.

Eleanor left the roof giggling at her achievement, leaving the two boys alone. Lysander smirked at Castiel and was about to say something.

"Shut up" Castiel said and the taller boy giggled.

"I didn't say anything"

"You were thinking. Best friend telepathic bond"

"There is no such thing"

"There is now. Let's fucking go already"

"Ah, yes. The joys of spending 2 hours straight looking at and listening to Mr McGrath while he talks about the Doppler Effect"

"Who wouldn't love to hear an entire Physics lesson taught by someone with a horrible lisp and a nasal voice?"

"'The Doppler efffect is te change in frequenthy of a wave for an obsserver moving relative to its thource'" Lysander said mocking the teacher's voice.

"'Castiel, pay attention, oterwiss you will thuffer te concequenthes when te test comes'" Castiel and Lysander both laughed at the impressions and Lysander lightly pushed Castiel in front of him.

"C'mon lover boy. We're late"

"Call me lover boy again and I'll give you a lisp"

"Ah, Castiel and Lythathender!" Mr McGrath said when they walked in the classroom "I'm glad you were able to join us today. And, Castiel, pay attention, oterwiss you will thuffer te concequenthes when te test comes" Castiel and Lysander exchanged a look and Lysander held back a laugh. Castiel, on the other hand, didn't hold back his laugh.

"What is so funny, boy?" The teacher asked and Castiel laughed harder. He then sat in his usual seat and crossed his arms.

"Everything is funny, mate. You just need some sense of humour and life becomes way better"

"That's Eleanor's philosophy of life. Also you're Mr Grumpy, remember?" Lysander whispered at him.

"Whatever"

If you have no idea what the teacher (Cas and Lys) is saying:

"The Doppler effect is the change in frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to its source"

"Castiel, pay attention, otherwise you will suffer the consequences when the test comes"

"Ah, Castiel and Lysander! I'm glad you were able to join us today. And Castiel, pay attention, otherwise you will suffer the consequences when the test comes"

Sorry, I'm horrible at writing people with lisp.
