Chapter Twenty-Six
Will had taken over the steering wheel before they got into Manhattan. That way there would be less questions if they were pulled over. Hunter glanced at her.
"You look like your from the Dauntless facton. Smile." He laughed.
"Sorry, just thinking." Astrid pursed her lips.
How many people will die if they don't stop the last three ghosts?
Is it really all her fault?
It was the curse she survived.
"Calm down. It will all work out." Hunter said. His hand rested on her shoulder. Her arm tingled were it rested causing butterflies to fly around in her stomach.
"Stop frowning your eyebrows. It will give you wrinkles." Will said. He was trying to lighten the mood. "Do you find it odd to be the only girl here?"
"Nope." Astrid said. Nico and Hunter started a conversation. Astrid wasn't really listening. She was zoning out to the radio and gently petting Fez, the song changed to Just One Yesterday by Fall Out Boy. Without thinking she started singing softly when it got to the part where Foxes started singing.
"I thought of angels
Choking on their halos
Get them drunk on rose water
See how dirty I can get them
Pulling out their fragile teeth
And clip their tiny wings" the speakers went. Nico and Hunter stopped their conversation.
"Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name
It will be held against you
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name" parts in there Astrid started singing and didn't notice Hunter join in.
"If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
Oh, I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
For just one yesterday" by this point in the song they were duetting.
"Letting people down is my thing, baby
Find yourself a new gig
This town ain't big enough for two of us
I don't have the right name
Or the right looks
But I have twice the heart." Hunter took that part.
"Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name
It will be held against you
Anything you say can and will be held against you
So only say my name (name)" they kept going. By now they were close to smiling.
"If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
For just one yesterday" they were really belting it out now. Hunter had a surprisingly good voice. There was a saying out there about death having a good voice, right? If not he would start it.
"If I spilled my guts
The world would never look at you the same way
And now I'm here to give you all my love
So I can watch your face as I take it all away, away, away, ay ay ay" Astrid sang.
"If heaven's grief brings hell's rain
Then I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
I want to teach you a lesson in the worst kind of way
Still I'd trade all my tomorrows for just one yesterday
(I know I'm bad news)
For just one yesterday
(I saved it all for you)
For just one yesterday" they finished. The jeep started to slow down.
"We're here." Will said.
The Brooklyn House wasn't as welcoming as usual.
