Chapter 4

Photo of Luke Grey...

Cole and I were sitting in the music room like we do every lunch. We have been in here for about 10 minutes eating and talking about our gig at a club tomorrow night. I am excited mostly because it's Friday. 

We have chosen the song Ex's and Oh's.

I start to play the guitar and cole starts to sing.

(Play song)

"Well, I had me a boy, turned him into a man. I showed him all the things that he didn't understand. Whoa, and then I let him go.

Now, there's one in California who's been cursing my name. 'Cause I found me a better lover in the UK. Hey, hey, until I made my getaway"

I join in on the next part harmonizing.

"One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. 'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep. One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave

Ex's and the oh, oh, oh's they haunt me. Like ghosts they want me to make 'em all. They won't let go. Ex's and oh's"

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

<~Smith POV~>

Luke and I were walking to the music room for somewhere quiet to be. As we open the door a burst of music escapes. We look into the room and see Oakley and her friend Cloey. They are singing while Oakley is playing a song on the guitar.

They haven't noticed us yet so we listen to then

"I had a summer lover down in New Orleans. Kept him warm in the winter, left him frozen in the spring. My, my, how the seasons go by.

I get high, and I love to get low. So the hearts keep breaking, and the heads just roll. You know that's how the story goes." Oakley sings.

Then they sing together. "One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. 'Cause I'm the best baby that they never gotta keep. One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave. 

Ex's and the oh, oh, oh's they haunt me. Like ghosts they want me to make 'em all. They won't let go. 

My ex's and the oh, oh, oh's they haunt me. Like ghosts they want me to make 'em all. They won't let go. Ex's and oh's. 

One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. Climbing over mountains and a-sailing overseas. One, two, three, they gonna run back to me. They always wanna come, but they never wanna leave. 

My ex's and the oh, oh, oh's they haunt me. Like ghosts they want me to make 'em all. They won't let go. 

Ex's and the oh, oh, oh's they haunt me. Like ghosts they want me to make 'em all. They won't let go. Ex's and oh's." They sang together making a perfect harmony.

I look at Luke and see him already looking at me. I point to the door and he nods.

"Oh my god, they are good. Like really really good, "Luke says.

"Bro did you know they could sing"

"No man, I didn't know," I nod and carry on walking

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

<~Oakleys POV~>

After we finish we heard a sound and realize it was the door. "Was someone in here?" I ask giving Cole a panicked look, No one at school knows about Cole and I sing and we both would like to keep it like that.

"I didn't see anyone" I nod and stand. "We should get to next period."

"Yeah"

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

It's now free period Cole and I are sitting outside under a tree near the football field. Talking about random stuff and watching the boys on the field play football and mess around like most do.

I was looking at Cole when I got hit by something really hard on the side. I wince in pain and look at what hit me. A football wow. I hear feet hitting the ground and I look up to see no other than Smith and Luke. 

"Are you ok," Smith asks.

I look down at the grass beneath me and nod. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hit you," Luke said. I nod again and stand. I grab all my stuff and then help Cole up she grabs her stuff, The boys are still watching us, Cole and I walk to her car.

"Are you ok, Oak"

"Yea I will be fine"

"Can I see" I lift my shirt a little enough to see the bruise that has already formed on my skin. Cole jumps out of the car before I could stop her. She starts making her way back to the field. "I'm going to kill him," she says as I catch up. I know I can stop her when she's like this.

When this boy was bulling me when we were 7 she punched him and broke his nose. 

I follow her as she approaches Luke. luke looks confused by Cole doesn't care. "Hey Cloey, What are you..." he didn't get to finish his sentence because Cole hit him hard on the cheek. his hand fellow up to cup his cheek that she just hit. 

"That's for hurting Oakley," She says before turning around and grabbing my arm, and heading back to the car.
