The Stories Of Those Around Us Chapter 008: His Music (2)
Black's POV Ever since we were suddenly told we had to perform at the end of club recruitment, Crimson and I have been practicing whenever we had free time. I wondered why we had to perform on the last day, but Crimson said it was because the principal knew we didn't want any new members. The principal and his parents were actually friends, and I guess his parents asked for a favour from the principal? I'm not really sure about the details, but it was something like that. The only reason we had to perform this year was because I joined, and the principal wanted to see what we could do. It's pretty much my fault that Crimson had to go through all this, but he wasn't as mad as I expected him to be. "Hey, you okay?" Crimson asked as he placed a can of juice on my desk. "You nervous for later?" "Ah, yeah, a bit." I replied as Iaughed nervously. "I guess I'm just really not used to this type of stuff." "Geez, you've neve

Black's POV"I flunked it." I said as I buried my face into my hands."You did great." Crimson replied as he sat down next to me. "Didn't you hear the crowd cheering earlier? They loved you."Our performance finished, and I honestly couldn't remember much of what happened. I got so nervous that I blacked out, and when I came to, we were already done. I can't help but feel robbed, but I'm glad that we're finally done with it.The doors to the music room opened, then Scarlet peeked inside. "There you two are." She said as she handed us a plastic bag with food and drinks. "Congratulations to the both of you. The freshmen won't stop talking about your performance, especially you, Black. They loved your voice.""Thank you." I replied. "Ah, your clothes.""You can keep them. Just remember the agreement we had. We'll

Black's POVAfter Crimson and I ate lunch, I walked back to my classroom. On my way there, I noticed Lilac carrying a bunch of notebooks on her own. They were definitely too much for her.She was swaying from side to side, and it looked like she was about to fall anytime. I walked up to her and grabbed half of what she was carrying."Where are you taking these?" I asked."Oh, Black." She called my name and smiled. 'Thanks for helping me. I just need to get these to my class.""Are you on class duty?""How'd you know?""I'd be an idiot if I didn't. Why are you doing this alone? Where's the other one on duty?""She said she had to take care of something else, so I just offered to do it myself."I sighed as we coincidentally arrived at her classroom. I took all the notebooks from her and placed them on the teacher's desk. "Don't do reckless things like these again.

Black's POV"White, this is Scarlet and Crimson." I introduced them to each other. "They're my friends. Crimson, Scarlet, this is White, my...classmate.""Nice to meet you, White." Scarlet said as she approached him. "You don't mind if we join, right? We'll pay for the karaoke room.""We will?" Crimson asked."You will. I'll pay for the food you order as well. How does that sound?""U-Um..." White stuttered as he looked at my direction, but I avoided eye contact.I'm sorry, White, but they want your answer, not mine.He eventually agreed, but the aftermath was horrible. The atmosphere was really awkward, and it looked like Scarlet was the only one enjoying herself."I'm so sorry about this, White." I whispered as I sat next to him. "I really didn't expect to see them here. I'll make it up to you.""Ah, no, it's okay." He replied in a whisper as well. "The more t

Black's POV"I know I said we should start over, but you don't have to stick with me all the time." I said as I placed my notebook in my bag and grabbed my wallet."Isn't it fine?" White replied. "We're friends, so it isn't a big deal to hang out like this.""I'm not your only friend, White. What would your other friends think if you just keep sticking to me? I'll be okay on my own.""Black!" Someone called my name from outside the classroom. Scarlet and Crimson were standing by the door, waiting for me."That's my cue." I said as I stood up. "Go hang out with your other friends."I went over to Scarlet and Crimson, then we had lunch. As always, we hung out at the club room. This is often my routine here at school. During lunch and dismissal, I hang out with Crimson here in the club room. Sometimes, Scarlet joins us, but she's been frequenting here too. Nothing much has changed, except for the undesirable popula

Black's POV"Hey!" Scarlet exclaimed as she suddenly burst open the doors to the clubroom. "Have you seen this?!""What is it?" I asked as she approached us."Somebody posted your performance on the school website.""They did??" Crimson joined us. "Why?""I have no idea, but even students from other school are watching it. Not only that, but Black's been getting a lot of attention again.""What do you mean?" I asked.She scrolled up the website, then stopped on one post. "A mysterious transfer student with a cold gaze, but heavenly voice." She read the caption of the post aloud as she showed us a few candid pictures of me. "The students are fawning over you."Well, there goes my quiet life.Crimson chuckled. "Guess you aren't getting a peaceful school life after all." He said with a smirk on his face."Shut up." I sighed. "I hope p

Black's POV"Good morning." White greeted me as he sat down on the seat in front of me."Morning." I replied as I yawned. "Did you need something?""Can I get your online ID? You aren't in our group chat yet, right?""Online ID? Was my number not enough?""This and that are different. You probably didn't know, but we're gonna be changing classrooms later. We're gonna have a merged class for first period. The class president posted it on the group chat.""Ah, so it's for convenience... I don't have an online ID. Can you teach me how to make one?""You don't have one? Why?""I never really needed it. The only person I keep in contact with is my aunt.""Oh, then hand me your phone for a bit."I gave him my phone, then he set everything up for me. He added me to the group chat, then sent me a direct message too. Now, I had his onli

Black's POVI somehow ended up in this awkward situation.Earlier today, I heard Scarlet and Crimson talking about something private. They mentioned something about Scarlet spending the night in Crimson's place, and somehow, I was forced to tag along with them."Just place your stuff anywhere." Crimson said as he started stripping.Scarlet threw her bag at Crimson's head. "Don't just start stripping out of nowhere!" She exclaimed with a flustered expression on her face."Geez, fine!" Crimson begrudgingly went to his room.Scarlet let out a sigh of relief and sat down on the couch. "What do you want to order, Black? Should we go for some fried chicken?""That's fine with me." I replied."Great! Crimson likes the spicy kind, so let's order that too. For drinks, we can just buy some later. There's a convenience store near here, so that is
