Old Quill

Sky P.O.V

Friday! Yes it has finally arrived the end of the week, although being in school has brought me these new friends I suppose. I never thought I would say that, me having friends, friends who didn't care who I was or what I did, but friends who had accepted me with no questions since day one. Things were definitely looking up for me here. Nahuel was away on business with Liz's dad for the rest of the week, she did ask if I wanted to come round hers but I denied and said I was busy with work and stuff anyway, so I was fine.

The last lesson of the day was music of course, it had soon become my favorite leaving art in a distant second place. Mr. Cullen encouraged my music more and more, he stated one time that I should try and make it my profession, apparently I had the skills to get me far and if I didn't use such talent it would be a waste.

"Sky!" Brady chimed as I sat down beside him. Lately he seemed to be talking to me more and more and I couldn't help but think of him a hell of a lot. It was like some dumb high school crush, like he would like me. Come on he is some hunk and no one can deny that.

"Miss me did you?" I laughed.

"You have no idea." There was that common silence between us again yet it was comfortable, the only awkward part of the situation was Collin and Natalie watching us. Natalie with her up turned nose seeming disgusted by my mere presence and Collin slightly amused but also looking bored.

"You are an idiot I saw you at lunch."

"Well an hour is long enough for me." He was only teasing me, I could just tell.

"Okay whatever you two, can we just get on with this now." Natalie groaned. "Have we sorted out any songs yet?"

"Well actually I've got the beginning of one." Brady said looking rather chuffed with himself. He rummaged in his bag before taking out two pieces of paper, one had guitar chords on and the other was his lyrics that had been scrawled across the page.

"Great. What's it called?"

"Umm I haven't really given it a name yet, its still a working process."

"Well play it for us then." Aghhh she could get so annoying, stop pressurizing him for god sake. At least he's done something for our project, I swear to god all she had done so far was moan, groan and be plain annoying.

"Well I cant play the guitar that well."

"I know." Collin frowned. "Lame ass brother."

"Why didn't you play for him then?" I asked Collin, if he could play then surely they could have teamed up.

"He didn't ask, plus I was a busy bunny." I let out a loud, exasperated sigh.

"Fine I can play it if you want? That's the music right?" I asked pointing to the sheet of paper with chords on.

"Yup, it would be great if you could play Sky."

"I'll see what I can do." I sat there for five minutes going over the basic tune, It was alright, a little simple but you can always add stuff later. "Right I'm done." I said handing back the sheet to a confused Brady.

"Don't you need the music."

"Nope it's all up here." I tapped my head twice to show I had collected it all up into my memory.

"Well at least there is something in there then, I thought it was all air." Natalie sneered at me. Oh she did not just say that, how dare she?

"WHAT?" I shouted and the room fell silent. "What are you trying to say about me Natalie?"

"Nothing Sky, why I said nothing wrong." She put on an innocent act batted her eyes.

"No you insinuated that I was stupid"

"Now why would I do that?'

"Come on you two calm down, we can't have a falling out." Collin was trying to sooth the situation out but I couldn't do it, I could still fill my anger.

"Well because you are one of those girls who find fault in anything, one that lives off of mummy and daddy, one that doesn't understand how the real world works."

"Sky, Natalie can I please ask you to stop this now." Mr. Cullen came over looking at us both seeming more worried than angry about us disrupting the lesson.

"Well I wasn't doing anything Mr. Cullen, you saw how she was the one to start on me"

"Natalie I think you and I both know that is a blatant lie." I sat there quietly dwelling in my anger glaring towards Natalie. "Now please can I recommend that you two stop this as it will effect how you work together in this project." All I kept thinking about was hitting her square in the face, so badly. "Sky maybe you should go outside for a bit." I nodded in reply and stood up still staring at her as I left.

Outside I slumped against the classroom wall trying to calm myself down. Why did she have to be the one that ruined my good mood, that conceited and evil…

"Sky?" I didn't turn to look at who it was, I could tell by the trousers and shoes that it was either Collin or Brady. "Sky are you alright?" Brady, most definitely Brady.

"Do I look it?"

"No you look really quiet pissed."

"Well why does she have to be so annoying, why does she have to be such a bitch?"

"Because it's Natalie, she has always been like it." Brady stood next to me now, his body towering next to mine. "don't let her get to you please, I don't like seeing you angry."

"Why do you care?" I mumbled looking straight up at him now, his face seemed concerned.

"Sky you are a friend, no one like to see their friends hurt in anyway." I sighed at his words, it was weird having friends. I leant my head on his shoulder as I tried to think things through, the body heat from him warming up my face causing me to calm some more. His arm came out and wrapped itself around my shoulders bringing me in closer to his body, his woodsy, pine needle scent engulfing my nose. I was getting way to comfortable here, I knew that but I didn't want to move. I heard him let out a deep sigh, his breath tickling the hairs on the top of my head.

"I think I'm all right now."

"Are you sure?"

"Yer, let's go. I want to hear your song anyway." I pulled away and instantly felt a little lost from the lack of touch there now was but Brady's wide smile made up for that.

"Alright then, just ignore Natalie though."

"Oh I will." We walked back into the room together, where Collin was looking anywhere else but at Natalie. Natalie sat picking at her nails, whose head shifted when I returned back to the table.

"It's back how nice."

"Natalie for god sake grow up." Collin moaned. "Sky has done nothing to you, so stop this now."

"Whatever."

"Let's just hear Brady's song." I didn't bother to look at Natalie. :Sorry Collin I shouldn't have gotten angry."

"It's alright, now just play the song." He grinned back at me, I nodded and started to strum the tune, remembering the chords from earlier. Brady coughed once before he began to sing the song, granted he wasn't much in tune but you could see the potential.

"You've got this new head up with smoke

I've got my veins all tangled close

To the jukebox bars you frequent

The safest place to hide

A long night spent with your most obvious weakness

You start shaking at the thought, you are everything I want

'Cause you are everything I'm not

As we lay we lay together just not

Too close, too close (How close is close enough?"

We lay we lay together just not

Too close, too close

I just wanna break you down so badly

While I trip over everything you say

I just wanna break you down so badly

In the worst way."

It wasn't that bad actually, we could get a good drum beat in there and Collin could scream the little extra bits.

"So what do you guys think?"

"Not that bad bro, I like it."

"It's amazing, how did you come up with that?" I asked in awe, my songs weren't that good.

"Just from the top of my head." Natalie hadn't said anything so far, but Mr. Cullen had come over and congratulated what we had accomplished so far. "Well Natalie what do you have to say?"

"I don't know, I would have to hear the whole song. I'm just worried that it wouldn't fit with my voice." I felt like screaming shut up, the song was perfect she was purposely trying to find faults. Lucky for her the bell went and she made a quick exit before I could judge her opinion.

"Bitch." I muttered under my breath as I, Collin and Brady walked outside.

"Look she's just still pissed about the argument, we will let her calm down a bit then bring the song back up." Brady replied as we walked to my car.

"Hmm suppose."

"Well see you around Sky have a good weekend." Collin smiled.

"Alright, good bye boys." I smiled as I sat in my car watching as they walked over to Alex, Seven and Seth who were by a surfer van. The bright paint job on the side was apparently done by them which was typical as there was just basically splats of colour with their names written on it. Seth saw me watching and sent e a wink before he stepped inside. That idiot, I drove home and did all my homework in that night making my weekend officially free from any work, well except the shift at Emily's.

Saturday morning I put on my work face and tied my hair back. Emily says I can wear what ever I want, in reason so I flung on some jeans and a red shirt to look a little smart. I was actually excited to be going to work, I had told Nahuel where I was going and he was pleased stating that Emily is a lovely woman and she would look after me well. When I arrived in the morning I was put straight into work, first I was putting out all the salt and pepper, al the sauces and menus on the table. Soon I was filling up cups with Coffee and smiling to the customers. The atmosphere here is amazing, everyone knows everyone and they all talk and smile, it was a comfortable place here.

"Sky could you take Quill seniors order please?" Emily smiled as she pointed to the old man who sat him self at the counter. He had loads of wrinkles that creased at his eyes yet warm eyes and a smile, he had the sheer essence of wisdom around him.

"Is that Quills granddad?"

"Yes, now go before he gets touchy." I walked over to the man.

"Hello sir how may I help you?"

"You are new and from England it seems."

"Yes sir I am."

"Well welcome to La Push dear, you may call me Old Quill if you like I don't like that whole senior stuff."

"Well thank you Old Quill, It's nice to meet a relation of Quill."

"Oh really you met my ragger muffin of a grand son. What is your name then?" He was an interesting character and the conversation just seemed to flow.

"Sky Adlington." I smiled. "Now what would you like to order?"

"Well first my mug of coffee please and then some blueberry pancakes."

"Coming right up." I wrote down the small order and headed out back to the kitchen for the first time.

"Order up." I shouted to the chef who was currently in the corner, he was dressed in checkered trousers and had a white top on, complete with the small white cap on his hair for hygienic reasons I guess. "One stack of blueberry pancakes."

"On it's way." The chef replied. That voice was way to familiar, I turned to get a closer look of the chef now looking at me. A set of bright blue eyes coming staring right back at me.

"Brady?"
