Art and Music || Xavier Thorpe

Chapter 3

The same night I was sitting in the balcony of my room, and I was playing piano on my own and enjoying the piece and quite of the place. The sky was full of stars, which made it even more beautiful than it already was.  As I was playing, my sister entered, but I continued 

Wednesday: We need to talk 

She said and I ignored her, continue playing

Wednesday: I found the perfect plan for us to get out of here 

She said, and I stopped. I turned to look at her. I didn't want to leave. I loved this place 

Y/n: What are you talking about?

Wednesday: I know a way for us to leave this shitty place 

Y/n: Who told you that I want to leave?

I said while standing up and crossing my arms 

Wednesday: Is it about the Thorpe boy? You like him, don't you?

Y/n: What the hell are you talking about? I know him for like what? Two days? I don't even know him. I like this place because I am finally around people who understand me, and I am not being commented or bullied anymore. Mom and dad were right, I love Nevermore 

Wednesday: You are talking nonsense. I swear, I will throw that boy in a pool full of sharks and let him scream for help until his final breath

Y/n: This isn't about a freaking boy, Wednesday. I want to stay because of my choice! End of discussion 

I said, wearing my headphones and entering my room. I knew that she didn't like this place, but I didn't know that she hated it that much! The next day, Miss Weems had arranged for us to go and see a therapist. I was sitting in the sofa with my headphones on while my sister had excused herself to go to the bathroom. She signed for me to remove my headphones and when I did, she had a huge smile on her face 

Valerie: How amazing that we have some time to talk with each other, isn't it, Y/n? 

She said and I just nodded. I already wanted to die from how bored I was 

Valerie: So, tell me how is your relationship with your sister?

Y/n: Good

I said and she nodded 

Valerie:Well, tell me why do you like wearing your headphones all the time?

She said and I sighed 

Y/n: My ability is to read minds and I can't fully control it, so the headphones help me 

Valerie: I see 

She said while nodding 

Valerie: Well, what about your art?  What do you usually draw?

Y/n: I don't know! Sometimes things that I see in my life or my dreams 

She then nodded again and wrote some things on her notebook 

Valerie: Would you let me see your drawing? I have heard that you are really talented

Y/n: I don't usually let people see my drawings! The last time my brother tried to take my notebook, I had put a huge allergic spider in it, and he went straight to the hospital

I said, and her eyes widened before she wrote again in her notebook 

Valerie: Well, your sister seems to be a lot of time in there

She said while standing up 

Y/n: She is probably waving at us from the nearest train station

I said whispering, and she went knocking on the bathroom and when she opened the door Wednesday was nowhere to be found!  I followed her outside and Weems exited furious in her car 

Weems: Where is your sister?

She said, and she red from anger, and I ensured her I didn't know before putting my headphones back on. If she really wanted to leave that bad, then that wasn't my problem! But then I saw my sister from a window inside a cafeteria and I went there with Miss Weems coming running behind me. When I entered I saw my sister and next to her were three boys lying in the floor and a boy was standing next to her. There was also a policeman! When she saw me, her eyes widened 

Wednesday: Y/n 

Y/n: What the hell are you doing here ? 

Wednesday: What the hell are YOU doing here?

I asked her, and she looked at me like she was planning plenty of ways to murder me !  Then Miss Weems interrupted us 

Weems: Misses Addams ! I think it's time for us to go back to school, don't you think?

She said, and then the policeman turned to us 

Sheriff: You are both Gomez Addam's daughters ? 

He said and we nodded! What my father had to do with this?

Sheriff: He was a report card about a kid he murdered back then! I will keep an eye on both of you 

He said, and my eyes widened. My father, a murder? There is no freaking way !  When we returned, I was so furious with my sister that I didn't even look at her. I can't believe that she went to leave without telling me. She didn't even leave me a goodbye card, at least. She went to leave without any information about where and when she is leaving. She just went to leave like that. I was in the music room of my school and the room was empty, so I decided to play some piano on my own to calm myself down. It was already late so no one was out, and it was really quiet. I was playing and after a while I felt someone sitting next to me and accompany me to the song. When I looked at the person, I saw Xavier with a gentle smile on his face. After a while, we both stopped, and I turned to him 

Xavier: I know that you don't like cooperating, but we are a pretty good team, don't you think?

Y/n: I was great, you sucked 

I said and he laughed 

Xavier: So artist, fencer, pianist. What other secret talents do you have?

Y/n: I will let you find out on your own. So you play piano?

Xavier: No, just a little bit ! My mother taught me when I was a little. That was her favourite song. She is a huge Mozart fan

He said, and I nodded, and then I started playing again on my own a really slow song 

Xavier: Well, did you consider joining my artist club ? It will be me and you  

Y/n: You said it yourself that I don't like cooperating 

I said while playing 

Y/n: I will think your offer and if I am interest I will let you know 

I said while standing up and took my bag 

Xavier: When?

Y/n: I don't know, maybe in a few days 

I said while taking from my bag my Walkman 

Xavier: When is that? Tomorrow, a week, a month, a year?

He said, but I ignored him while putting my headphones back on
