“I didn’t say that. I said I tolerate it.” She dramatically placed a hand on her chest. “You wound me, Mr. Davenport.” I laughed louder this time, tapping the wheel in rhythm. “You know what? Let me save you.” I clicked the skip button. The next song started—something slower, softer. “Best Part” by Daniel Caesar and H.E.R. Lena melted instantly. “Ohh. Okay. You win.” “Fewer lyrics to butcher,” I teased. She turned to me, faux-offended. “Rude. But true.”

My wobble knees were almost vibrating in the white sneakers, I had on. Other hand was just at the side of the flowery dress I had on. My eyes loitered to the crowd’s impatient faces, till I found Cole’s… He gave me a re-assuring look. “Well I think we…all know this piece by Whitney Houston,” I muttered before I started. “Clock strikes upon the hour And the sun begins to fade,” My voice was a husky mess. It looked like no one was even interested. “Still enough time to figure out How to chase my blues away,”

“I mean, all those twirls and that big jump?” “Grand jete.” “Yes,” he says. “That.” “Doc says the big stuff is all okay till the second trimester.” The band takes a break and the room is silent, except for quiet chatter. Ansel adjusts his tux lapels nervously at the piano. He swallows and begins to strike the keys of the beautiful song he wrote for me, so long ago. I take a deep breath and begin to dance. I let my body lead me. I both glide and bolt across the floor, my feet working in intricate movements, in time to the rhythm of the song.

Jing Yue paused abruptly and promptly released his grip on her. Xin Ran panted hard as if she was running a marathon. She tried to regain her composure, adjusting the straps of her dress to restore it to the state it was before she entered the room. "I'm sorry…" Jing Yue's voice called out to her, but it was beginning to trail off from her like they were worlds apart. It began with her vision, starting to get fuzzy. She rubbed her eyes and tried to focus, but everything seemed to be fading away. Not just Jing Yue's voice, but nothing seemed to make her feel she was still in that room.

A tiny dancing boy spun on the lid as the tune played. She had said, "August will shine as the brightest dancer on stage one day." It was my most treasured possession. I was about to place it in my bag when the door to my room was pushed open.

~You were the shadow to my light Did you feel us Another start You fade away Afraid our aim is out of sight Wanna see us Alive~ ~Where are you now Where are you now Where are you now Was it all in my fantasy Where are you now Were you only imaginary Where are you now~ ~Atlantis Under the sea Under the sea Where are you now Another dream The monsters running wild inside of me~ ~I'm faded I'm faded So lost I'm faded~ ~These shallow waters, never met What I needed I'm letting go A deeper dive The eternal silence of the sea I'm breathing Alive ~Where are you now Where are you now~ "Alright. That better than before. Okay. Let's move on to the second song." Jackson announces, then we start playing

"Back to Lydia, what's the plan?" "I'll see what I can do." She shrugged and sunk low in her seat. "That doesn't sound reassuring," he said as they stopped at a red traffic light. Something about ninety days was playing on the radio. Liam thought the artist is P!nk; he couldn't be so sure, though. But he knew the song because for two years straight, it was Holly's anthem. Eden fidgeted in her seat and played with her hair while she sang along. Liam was surprised she could make out the lyrics even with the volume turned down so low.

-James asked, walking in. Luna nodded and gave him a smile. He started driving while she put on a Nirvana cd. James hummed the lyrics to "Oh, me" and smiled. She looked at him smiling, exited the app and opened the camera. James smiled as he hummed and moved his finger to the beat of the song. Luna slyly held up her cell phone, and snapped a picture of James. He smiled, and turned to look at her. - I saw you. -She said smiling.

While they played mostly heavy metal and screamo songs, they were one of our toughest competitions this year. Code Blue's version of It Ends Tonight was pretty cool. Blue's voice was perfect for the song even if he was screaming several parts of it. After that, he sang In The End by Linkin Park. And boy, did he sing! My jaw dropped at how awesome he covered this song and if I closed my eyes for just a bit, it was as if Chester Bennington himself was singing in front of me.
