It's been days since I haven't played the piano so I placed the tip of my fingers on the keys and started playin U-turn (lili) by AaRON and singing to it.

• Finn's POV

I couldn't hear much from downstairs anymore just the sound of piano which was probably April.
I came out of the room and peeped downstairs. Nobody seemed to be here except...

Lili, take another walk out of your fake world
Please put all the drugs out of your hand
You'll see that you can breath without no back up
So much stuff you got to understand

Her fingers were erratically wandering around on the keys. Strands of her light brown hair which was in a messy bun fell on her face.
Her long curved lashes protected her dark brown eyes. I went down the stairs trying not to interrupt her but I wasn't successful.
I bumped somewhere and_
"Finn?!"
"Hey! Uh... where are the rest?"
"Ahahaha.. HAHAHAH...aaahhhhahaa!" She started laughing like crazy.
"Would you please stop laughing so hard!" I shouted.
"Hehe, sorry, they left you, HAHAHAHA!"
"Oh, yeah. And I'm sorry about earlier. I...uh_"
"No prob... we all get messed up sometimes..."
"Thanks, by the way... your friend Joanna wasn't she?"
"Yeah..."
"She's funny, can I have her number?" I said scratching the back of my neck.
"Yeah... no... problem..." she entered her phone number in my phone.
"So, I better go now... bye."
"Bye."

• April's POV

What the fuck dude! Why do you need her number? Do you wanna impress her or something? Why do I even care?!

It was 9:07 pm and I didn't feel like eating so I just turned on the TV and started switching channels till I fell asleep.
I woke up at 11:26 and realized my neck hurts, I turned off the TV and went upstairs to my room. I didn't even turn on the lamp, I just dropped dead on my bed.

-Time Skip-

I'm calling you... with all my_
Why did I choose this as my ringtone?!
I picked up.

"Malcolm?"
"Hey sis, your voice is raspy I hope I didn't_"
"You did. So what's up?"
"Ayla is pregnant."
"What in the world?!"
"Don't worry I was just trying to get your attention."
"Fuck you. So?"
"But they are literally eating each other out in-front of us. Help. S.O.S!"
"Haha, leave the scene as soon as possible, super speedy April is on her way!"
/\/
I knocked on their door.
"Oh hi! April... uh... I didn't know you were coming... uh.."
"Joanna?!"
"Yeah I was invited by Finn, he said I'm funny!" She giggled. I am actually starting to hate her behaviors, like oh my god! Oh Jesus! He said I'm funny! What is wrong with you?
"Oh so good!" I said instead of saying what was really on my mind.
"April! Come in!" Malcolm greeted me.
"Hey_"
"Can we talk for a moment?"
"Yeah of course." We went to the backyard.
"April,... uh... how should I say this... no offense... but I absolutely hate Joanna."
"Haha! HAHAHAHA!"
"April?"
"Oh, sorry! Honestly I don't like her anymore as well. She is just so... so... cringey!"
"Ture af!" And we both went inside laughing.
"But I guess they like each other."
"Who likes who?"
"Joanna likes Finn and Finn likes Joanna?"
"You must be kidding me!"
"No, I'm not. He got her phone number from me." Malcolm's smile disappeared into a poker face.
"April? Hi." Finn said coming downstairs.
"Sup."
"Guys I didn't eat breakfast and I am starving!"
"You guys eat, I don't feel like eating." I guess I'm having an eating disorder. I went up to their roof. I liked to go on the roofs at night but...meh.
It didn't take long that Finn came in his room shouting.
"Hey you up there?"
"Yeah..."
He came up.
"You...do you... like Joanna, I mean I can help?" What am I saying?
"I thought she was funny and cute but... she's actually annoying."
I didn't say anything.
We sat there watching the view in silence until Joanna came.
"Hey Finnie boi! I am going, my mom is upset!"
Finn didn't even say bye.
"Finnie boi?" I said raising an eyebrow after Joanna left.
"That's what I meant by... ew."
"She will call you babe or something in a while."
"Ew, gross! Don't even mention it!"
"Haha. By the way... good time to push me off the roof, huh?"
"April... I'm sorry I said that."
"I hate your fake forced sorrys." I stood up moving downer on the steep roof.
"I..."
"Silence is better than bullshit. You know that don't you?" I said without looking back going farther.
"April you'll... you'll fall." He said as my messy bun got damaged by the wind. I was looking like Pocahontas right now. :/
"Why do you care?" I said as I sat on the edge of the roof.
"I don't."
"Good."
He went inside.
I lied down with my legs hanging down.
I hadn't brought my headphones so I could just listen to whatever was happening around me.

• Finn's POV

She's really crazy. She really is and I shouldn't let her think that I care so much when I don't.
I went inside and sat on my bed, I thought she would come inside soon, but she didn't.

2:47

"Finn, is April there with you?"
"No Ayla, she's on the roof. She's depressed or something?"
"Finn shut up. You guys are just so annoying, both of you are moody, stubborn and ANNOYING." She said as she came upstairs.
"So why are you friends with us?"
"April COME DOWN." She didn't answer me.
"She can't hear you. Just let her be!"
"Whatever!" She went back down.
