The Only Lonely Way

Can you turn down the music please?

Third person pov

You could see the dark silhouette of a tall lanky person behind the tree. Throwing stones into the river, the stones cause little ripples to form in the otherwise still and stagnant water of the lake.

Moving a little closer to the figure,you can see that it's a boy wearing a light green hoodie that was a little too big on him as if swallowing his entire form. The hoodie was perfectly complimented by the dark jeans he wore.

Music blasted from his headphones and you could see from his body swaying slightly to the music that he didn't have a care for the world around him. Maybe he had a care for the world. Maybe that's why he drowned himself in the music finding solace inside his own head. Maybe this. Maybe not.

If you moved a little closer, you could hear the music too. Canon in D.. A very common yet mesmerizing piece.The boy has taste.. You could also see the freckles on his nose and cheeks, splattered across like the first snow on the barren ground. And you could see his eyes. Moon and Sun. His left eye was hazel with flicks of orange surrounding thrown in them like autumn leaves. The right eye a cool blue. A very pale washed blue. Resembling the moon at night.

There was something about this boy. You can feel it in his presence. But you can't point it out exactly. Something mysterious. Something chaotic yet soothing.

The boy was vibing in his own world. But not for long. Because he didn't know that today will be the start of something very peculiar for him. An adventure maybe. That will change his view of his existence and the universe. His boring life was waiting for some sparkles and today was the day.

"Can you turn down the music please?" He couldn't hear obviously. A gentle tap on the shoulder and he turned to see someone he had never seen before. He took off the headphones. "Yes?" He asked slightly surprised. No one ever visits this place. His place as he has considered it for years now. "Can you turn down the music please?" The new girl said a little too emotionlessly. "It's too loud for your ears boy. And I just want to enjoy the nature sounds for a while" the girl continues. "Uh.. Okay.. I'll just go away then.. Come back later.." As the boy started getting up the girl stopped him "Oh.. No need. You can stay here actually if you just turn the music down.. I'll sit here for a while and go away..I'm new here.. Eliza.. My name.. Yours?" She said extending her hand out, her completely emotionless expression changing into something sweet and welcoming." Hi I'm Adrian. I've lived here my whole life actually. No one comes here.. This pier. It's like my own secret place. I spend most of my time here even at night sometimes.. A pretty safe area this is. No crime history. This place is really beautiful amd I've planted some of the trees here too.This one too. " He said glancing up to the canopy of the now big oak." Please don't tell anyone about this place. I'd like to keep it to myself.. Haha.. Sorry I'm just going on and on. " Eliza laughed. " Don't worry. I don't even have anyone to disclose your little secret".

This little conversation stated everything.

**Hey anyone reading this..? I doubt.. Haha.. This is not my first time writing.. But this is tue first time I'm publishing something. I write my thoughts down pretty often else they bug me at night..

Hope you enjoyed the chapter. I'll try to update the story as frequently as possible.
