I think Jenna is attractive but not in a way where I'd like to date her, I'd really like to be friends with her is all.


"Are you okay, Tyler?" She leans over and whispers to me.

"No but.. Who am I kidding, nobody will care to listen to me except Josh."

"I'm listening."

"I don't know, I'm heard by people but I don't want to be heard.. I want to be listened to."

"I'm listening to you, Tyler."

"...."

"..."

"Are we friends now?"

"I suppose so, are you okay with that?"

"Yes."

Yes! We're friends now! I have 2 friends! I know, compared to other people in my school, 2 friends is like 0.5% to them but to me, it means a lot.

We watch as Mr. Owens demonstrate what music is (Supposedly) I disagree with him because he's saying that we listen to music for the guitar, the vocals, the drums, the piano and keyboard and whatnot.

I think there is a lot more to music and bands then guitars, vocals, drums, piano or keyboards because music has helped me through hard times.
