Episode 27
RYAN'S POV
Eston was grounded for week, not allowed to go out or even use his car, we all got to school this morning in our lexus but he didnt follow us home, I know he's with Janelle again, he cant just stay away from her for a second. He's parent just called to ask of his way about and the guys and I had to lie to cover up for him just like always.
ESTON'S POV
"Eston" my mum called with her hand on her waist standing ourtside infront of the door "Why did you spend this long with the guys? Remember you are not allowed to go out" She ranted.
"Comeon mum am sorry i just had to fix something" I said with my head faced down trying to walk past her.
"Hey son, whats that on your face?" she touched my face.
"Its nothing mum" I moved my head.
"No you are wounded, did you get into a fight?"
"Mum i said am ok, its just a little accident" i kissed her cheek and left leaving her with a worried expression.

I walked down the hallway expecting to hear "noodles" or notice someone running towards me and drapping an arm around my shoulder. But there was none, where on earth is Eston?
How come he's not in school today? Is he ok after last night? I couldnt help but worry, how come am worried about Eston?
I looked around searching for him then i sight the guys chanting and walking towards the art class but Eston was not with them?
"Hey guys wait up" I ran to them and student who were passing by glared at me i ignored them and faced the guys.
"Where's Eston?" I asked. There all glared at each other surprisely like i just perfomed magic.
"Over here noodles" I heard that arrogant voice from behind.
"Ohh" I blushed as he went to greet his friends, they all teased him and ruffen his hair laughing out loud like i was not there.
"Have you miss me noodles?" he finally turned to me, I could see the scar on his nose from last night covered with a brown plaster.
"Huh you call her noodles?" Declan raised his eyebrow.
"Yap she has no weight at all" Eston said laughing.
"Gosh!" Stiles exclaimed scratching his hair "How did you know that?" he asked admist laughter. Declan joined on the laughter, I couldnt help but laugh too. And Ryan? He was chuckling and making eye contact with me. The REDS are not too bad like i thiught.
i went to the cafetaria with Ivy and after that we both went our separate ways, i went to the locker room to change while she left for her next class.
"What were you doing with the guys?" Natasha suddenly came behind me.
"Look Natasha am not going to fight you today ok? I dont wanna get into a detention again because you'll do nothing than bribe your way out" i told her buttoning my shirt.
"Then if you dont want that stay far away from the guys, they dont stick with loners like you, you can spend time with your other looser Ivy" she spat.
"Get out Natasha" I said angrilly.
"Be warned" she grinned walking away feeling happy that she suceeded in anoying me.
I walked around till i got to the roof top, It was a cool and quiet place i look at the extreme end and found a desk of piano.
"Wao" I exclaimed, then rushed to the piano, i sat on the small bench and uncovered it, it was so dusty like it has not been used for a while.
After wiping away the dust with my handkerchief, i placed my finger on it and started playing a piece i remebered. A song my dad would always sing to me when i was little, atleast then i was a bit valued unlike now. As i played on those memories replayed in my mind. I quickly stopped and covered the piano. That was something i wouldnt want to remember.
I glared at my wristwatch, it was time for music audition, everyone walked to the school theatre including Ivy and I and all through i kept trying to keep my voice steady.
The music auditor handed me a piece of paper that contained the song i would be singing. "Rivers of love" by Janelle Nwad. Great! One of my favourite songs; i hope i sing well.
"Sing well with passion and emotions, like you are all alone but dont forget you have an audience watching" the music auditor whispered.
I nodded and glared around the heavy crowd, i was getting nervous and it wouldnt help at all.
"I can do this" I soliloquized rubbing my palms together and with that i took a bold step heading to the stage.
Student clapped and hailed as i stood up on the stage, my eyes roamed about and i sighted the REDS walked in all dressed in a black suit. They look so responsible.
I took a deep breath and prayed i did not stutter, then i brought the microphone up to my lips and started singing.

In the rivers of love
Where we quench our thirsty soul.
In the rivers of love.
Where we can never down.
Yes I will float with you in the rivers of love.
(Rivers of love Janelle Nwad)
As i sang and played the piano, the building was peaceful and calm and so quiet that even the fallen of a pin could be heard. All attention were thrown to me and i knew for a while they all forgot the person standing up there is the same loner and the poor girl they so much dispise.
ESTON's POV
What if she is not human? What if she is an angel sent from above.
How can a human being sing this way.
Her voice makes me feel tuant inside. And i feel something creaping into me.
I turned to the guys and there were just surprised and lost like i am.
"this girl is so good, how can she sing so lovely?" Declan wispered.
"She look so different from the noodles i use to know" Stiles added chuckling and immediately knock his head for calling her noodles. I turned to Ryan and he gave me that "I'll be back look" then he walked out looking so tired and depressed.
RYAN's POV
I couldnt stay to watch her sing so i stood up and left, I feel so aweful and uneasy, I dont know why.
But Janelle....
The way she sang with so much passion and love made my inside tremble.
I wonder who she has in mind while singing.
I went to the rest room and faced the mirrow, my eyes look so red and puffy, I havent had enough sleep this days. No matter how i try sleep wont come instead something else feels my thought.
Something I dont know.
I washed my face with cold water from the tap, trying to make myself feel better but just as i was about to leave I heard a sound like mourning, like two people were struggling over something.
I went to the girls room and peep through to see a boy and a girl making out, kissing like there were doing some kind of wrestling and almost tearing off their cloths.
"Gosh...." escaped my mouth and it actually announced my presence as they both turned around in shock. But I myself got the biggest portion of shock.
The girl is Natasha.
I glared at Natasha and the boy I knew to be Stephen from the football team with a raised eyebrow and a broken heart as they both struggled to get back their cloth on.
"Ryan" she rushed out to touch me. Thus burtsing out the anger i was trying to hide.
"Get out!!!" I roared like a hungry lion and everyone immediately started trooping out of the hall as my loud voice invited them. Janelle am sorry for ruining you day.
"What happened?" murmuring started.
"They are making out ooo, hey sex" another replied.
"Who and who?"
"Hey Natasha oo, galaxy girl indeed" the murmuring continued as everyone gathered.
"Am sorry Ryan" Natasha said shedding crocodile tears.
"Shame! Shame! Shame!" people yelled clapping their hands.
"lets go dude?" the guys ran to me and took me out after giving Natasha a dagger look, while she stood there sweating like someone who just escaped from the oven.

After singing... claps, hails and screams of Joy sounded all round the hall. I smilled and bow a little with my hand placed on my chest before stepping down the stage, but then i was shocked by a loud scream.
Everyone turned around and started rushing out of the hall to find out what was happening. I was so curious so i followed behind.
When we got to the girls room, I saw Ryan standing fustrated, his eyes filled with anger and pain.
I looked by the corner to see Natasha standing my the corner with an unknown guy and from the gossip i heard. Natasha was making out with him.
I glared at her, she was crying like a great pretender, how could she bo so cheap? How dare she hurt Ryan?
I wonder what Ryan saw in her in the first place, when her movement, words, and even her face reads lust and cheating.
I watch as they guys wrapped their arms around Ryan and taking him out, without saying a word.
ESTON's POV
I warned Ryan of Natasha but he wouldnt listen, she only wants money, power and sex, she is not the dating type, she only jumps from one male and one bed to the other. Ryan should have know Natasha was different from the girl we once knew. She changes each new day.
Am not surprised anyways but what surprised me was Ryan catching her in the act only now.
Damn Natasha.
