[Chapter 12]: A Musical Love Story

This is the day, the day that I have been wanting ti happen. I have survived all the way until now, and every second, I want to stay stronger, for Caleb. I will be by his side no matter what, whether he won or not, I know, he had still did his best, however, I am confident though, that they would actually win, true arts comes from the heart, and the art of music, is within deeper.

You can do this Caleb, I have read your text, you were too cheesy though, no need for awkward messages like that, I do believe in you, make sure you will bring home the bacon alright? I will never forget this very step that we had taken, we will fight through all of the challenges, together.

Your one and only cute boyfriend,

Authern.

—Caleb—

I have read his text, and it was cute, I realized, because I was blushing while reading it, then I closed my phone. "It's this day already huh?" I said to myself.

I went to the auditorium along with my members and sat on the contestants' place. The event had already started, and the first performer didn't hold back, they are performing so well that it made me nervous, but, I will fight through this what I feel for Authern, and Authern will be the reason of why I am performing. A number of contestants had performed, but I havenot lose my confidence, I am still, fighting inside, trying to be calm. I looked in front, and by confidence, once we were called, we all went up, and went to our proper positions.

I tappes the microphone to make sure it is working, then I held it, then I speak, "First of all, before we perform, we are singing within our hearts, as someone once told us, true art is from the heart, but the art of music is deep within, this is also for our manager, Authern, who had taken risks in order for the Stargazers to survive this long, and fight hard for something we had soar. Authern, wherever might you be, all we hope is that you could hear this, and be amazed, as we show you, how much you had made us believe in ourselves." then everyone shouted and giggled, smiling and cheering us up.

We had started to play, slowly, Caiden was unexpectedly performing so perfectly, "The title of this song is, A Musical Love Story, composed by me, and dedicated to the only person I love the most, Authern." and everyone shouted again. I started singing, along with the melody and tune of the song, I let my emotions play along, as this should be played from the heart. Every part I have sang, they never fail, instead, it amazed the audience and ended up throwing roses on us. We were happy, as they are this supportive. I love them all, but Authern, is the only one I love the most.

Hey, Authern, how are you? We won the champion place and we have celebrated. How is your condition? Keep fighting alright? Everything should be alright, in time, we both will be walking together, while I sing for you, and I am willing to do it, just to be with you, everyday.

Love,

Caleb

—Authern—

I saw his text, it was inspiring, but Caleb didn't know that I'll be released tomorrow on, I wanted to surorise him, so I'll keep on telling him that I'm getting better. with letting him know that I'll be going to school tomorrow. I hope he will not get mad though, I mean I am telling him the truth that I'm getting better already, but I just have not told him that I'm going to school tomorrow.

I knew you can do it, even if I was not there, I feel like I could hear you singing all over here. You fought hard for this, and I'm doing the same thing too, for you, Caleb!

Loving you as always,

Authern.

—Caleb—

" Shit!" I am panicking all over the music room, me walking around over and over. "Chill out bro, you have to plan carefully." Caiden said. "Y— you're right, I'm talking to the school director." I said without hesitation and left the room. I rushed to the school director and asked a permission to perform for tomorrow. I know that Authern will be going to school tomorrow, so I have to plan a surprise to him. I asked the school director if I could, he said I really should as our band was the winner. I smiled and thanked him, shaking his hands. then went back to the music room. Everyone was surprised though, as they saw me rushing, panting, trying to catch up with my breath, but I didn't mind it at all, all I know is that we're performing tomorrow, and that Authern will be here tomorrow. "Everyone, go to your places, we're practicing our piece until it's perfect, until we die." and they saw the eagerness within me to play this precious song again, and to dedicate it to Authern.

Everyone did well in the practice, as expected, we all were tired and hungry. Someone went inside the room, looks like a nughty guy, "Hey ya'll! Nice work on the battle of the bands, and I've heard you practice—" he said but I cutted him off. "Why are you here and who are you?" I asked and he smiled, "Chill, I'm a transfer student, the name is Clay, and I am Authern's childhood friend. I am just doing a request from him, he said, which is for his boyfriend, Caleb." he said then the other members teased me. "Here, this is for everyone, I bought it for you guys as a winning gift." he said then he gave us foods and other else. Everyone was replenish though. then the guy left and we all took a break.

This should be the most perfect performance he'll ever see and heard, I promise you, Authern.

—Next Day—

—Authern—

I have packed my bags and taken my medicine, then I went to the school to surprise Caleb. I was walking, until I reach the gate, someone grabbed me from behind and covered my eyes. "You should be afraid, I am only requested to do this." he sounds familiar, but I couldn't seem to remember who this was. He grabbed my wrists and dragged me to whoever fuck sake knows. I hear crowds though, whoever is doing this might not be ashamed as he is kidnapping me infront of a crowd. I shouted, "Someone help! This guy is kidnapping me!" but no ne seemed to care. Moments later on. a high pitched audio was heard and I knew it was the sound of a microphone, "What do you mean you're getting kidnapped? I'm pretty sure you're getting loved." and I realized, the person talking in the microphone was... Caleb. The guy held me off, and I saw it was Caiden. "Jerk!" I said and I looked at Caleb above the stage, "This is for you." he said and I was surprised, how could he possibly know I am going back to school? He sang his very own piece, and it was pleasing. I just found myself smiling and blushing from what he did.

Later on when he finished, he ran towards me and hugged me tightly, "Welcome back, babe." he said. "Cheezy guy." I said and he laughed, then I realized, later on, he is already kissing me.

—Narrator—

School year had ended, yet stories remained secret. Stories had it's fate, and each one should find the gate. Arthur and Mint had minsunderstandings, yet they should find something such as love.

The popular familia, Clay, Champ and Christopher, had been storming the school ever since they had entered. Run, on the other side, encountered them with bad moments, and so he thought that they are just seeking attention. Would Run be able to fix the connections between him and the three?
