Like A Fool
(keira knightley)
Present day

"Hello! New York!" You yelled, the crowd roared back at you. "Thank you for having me here at the LOA award. I'm (Y/n) and that was same old love, the first track from my second album 'Consequences'."

You smiled at the crowd, hearing them screaming I love you back. You breathed in, letting out all your tiredness from the first performance.

   The lucky one, was the next song you will perform, because it is going to be making into a music video very soon and your record label will promote it, so you grabbed your microphone from the stand.

   Before you could say the speech before the song, the crowd went wild, you heard noises, people talking. What happened? Did you say something wrong, was your dress torn off? Nothing.

   You followed some of the audiences's gaze and noticed they were looking at the two projector on the side of the stage.

   The screens were live streaming Peter Parker and Liz Allan, from somewhere in this huge theater, reacting to you.

   Triggered. You were real pissed. They did this on purpose, they knew they will get more views and attention if they bring your drama in.

   You stared at Peter's face on the screen, he was looking away, trying to act normal. You wondered if he ever feel guilty about what he did, if he really loves her, or if he knows you still loves him.

   You looked away and the whole hall was deadly quiet, waiting to hear what you have to say or if you want to cry. Instead you just smiled.

   "They told me to perform The Lucky One." You told everyone. "It's a song i wrote back in the day when people told me how lucky i am to be in the position, and I always tell them i am not."

   Natasha in the backstage started to freaking out. "What is she doing? She is not following the script."

   "But i have other ideas, if LOA wants drama, they shall have it. So." You ignored the noises of people, audiences, singers, rappers and producers whining about what the hell were you doing. Headed right to the piano on the stage.

   "Oh no, not again." Natasha slapped her forehead.

   "This is a song i wrote, it's a heartbreaking song, you guys are going to love it." You smiled sarcastically at them, setting the microphone on your mouth. "I won't be performing The Lucky One tonight, but i'm going to give LOA awards what they really want. This is called Like A Fool."

[Tips : Listen to the song while reading to feel more pain]

   You started playing the piano while glanced over at Natasha in the back stage ,screaming without voices 'No, Stop, don't.', but you shrugged back at her, then smiled again at the audiences.

   "We take a chance from time to time and put our necks out on the line."

   Peter who was trying to look away couldn't stop himself but looked back at the stage. Liz couldn't stand it no more and asked the camera man to stop filming them, but he won't.

   "And you have broken every promise that we made. And i have loved you anyway." You looked into the crowd, you didn't really know where exactly Peter was, but you hope he heard every words you just sang.

   Natasha facepalmed.

   "Took a fine time to leave me hangin' out to dry. Understand now I'm greivin'. So don't you waste my time."

   A singer's biggest weakness is it is harder to sing when you cry, you tried to keep it at rage and not sadness.

   "Cause you have taken all the wind out from my sails, and I have loved you just the same."

   You let your fingers lead the feelings of the piano, closed your eyes and turn a blind eye to the world. At the moment, it was just you, the piano, feelings and the aftertaste of his memories.

"We finally find this then you're gone. Been chasin' rainbows all along."

"Peter don't listen to her." Liz told Peter, tried her hardest to keep Peter's eyes away from you but he pushed her hand away.

"And you have cursed me when there's no one left to blame, And I have loved you just the same"

You finally opened your eyes up to the exact moment the spotlight shined on Peter, the both of you got to look at each other's eyes for a second. Your hands were weakened so you avoided and turned back at the piano, focus on the song.

"And you have broken every single fucking rule." You sang, staring at the distance.

"Peter, stop looking at her." Liz begged.

"No, Liz, you stop." He pushed Liz away, he needed to hear the last word from your song.

"And I have loved you like a fool." You smiled painfully at yourself then ended the song.

Deadly quiet. Everything was deadly quiet. There was never a single singer who changed the songs to perform half way through, or calling out the LOA awards in the LOA awards.

And then there's you.

You got up from the seat, walked to the middle of the stage, the bowed.

"Thank you. Don't forget to buy my album Treacherous on iTunes."

Natasha hit her head to the wall.

Instagram, YouTube, twitter, tumblr, Pinterest and Facebook was exploding with all the videos from LOA awards. How you sang the diss track right into Parker and Allan's faces."

"Well i'm sorry! They shouldn't be streaming my ex on the screen while i was performing in the first place if they didn't want any drama." You told Natasha, who was freaked out badly.

"But you can't call out LOA like that, you might be big enough that they say sorry for putting Peter on the screen but the media will have so much fun, writing negative things about you."

"I could be adopting a hundred stray dogs and they will still write bad things about me, Nat."

Your dressing room's door opened up with bearded Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes and Sam Wilson.

Steve Rogers, is the founder of Rogers record label, people called him Captain because he is the leader. He is a producer for many successful artists, such as Wanda Maximoff, Clint Barton, and you.

But there are another music studio that produced a great singers as well.

That's right, the Stark record label. By Tony Stark, who people called him Iron man because something about the way he speaks is irony as hell.

Legends say, back in the days Tony Stark and Steve Rogers were a great friends, having a band called Avengers or something, then they got in a fight, and split up, and now fighting against each other.

You are a singer for team Captain.

Peter is a singer for team Iron man.

That's the whole plot.

"Steve..." You looked at him nervously, he looked so aggressive, you were afraid that he will smack you for all the things you did today,

But instead, he smiled and told you. "That was awesome."

You jumped at the tall guy and he lifted you off the ground then both laughed like an idiot. Sam looked at you and grinned, but Bucky walked away, he was more interested in those plums on the table than all of you.

"Seriously Steve?!" Natasha complained. "She could have been banned from this awards forever."

"They wouldn't dare, views will drop for about 70 perfect without her." Steve patted your back.

"I was worried you will be angry at me." You groaned at Steve.

"Why would i? You should've seen Parker's face when you sang both songs."

You couldn't reply at first, so you bit your lips and sighed. "I saw him there I wanted him to hear Like A Fool, not The Lucky One..."

"Do you think you are ready to go out there again?" Steve asked, he was worried about your feelings. "Parker and Allan will be performing in 5 minuets, and they want us at the seats to watch them perform."

"Ugh... now they're going to film my reaction when they sing."

"If you don't want to look at them we can lie that you feel sick and stay in here until Parker finishes his performance."

You stopped to decide, when the door opened once again with Pietro on the other side.

"I just arrived! Did I miss your show, baby?" He asked, breathing heavily, guessed he was rushing all the way here.

"I already performed but..." You stopped to think one more time and figured something out.

If Peter can have new girlfriend while watching you perform, then you can have new boyfriend watching him perform with you as well. Let's see who's jealousy is stronger.
