"I don't know why you want these but okay." Julie says as Violet and her take a picture with two random students. "Same." Violet agrees.

"Can we get a selfie too?" Ryan and Nick walk up to them. "We have to check with security." Violet answers. "Oh, wait. We don't have any." Julie continues. "you laugh. But, after last nights performance, it's pretty clear." Ryan started. "y'all are gonna blow up." Nick finished. "it was just a garage party, don't go all crazy on us." Julie states. "Julie, sorry I couldn't stay for the whole thing. I had homework." Nick looks to her. Violet raises her eyebrows at Julie before walking away a bit. 

"Hey, uh, since we make such a great pair- team in dancing, I was wondering if there was any chance we could be chem lab partners?" Ryan jogs to Violet. "Oh, I'm sorry, but, I already said I would partner with Juls." She says. "Study partners?" Ryan asks. "Sorry, but with the band, I'm not sure I'll have any free time." Violet answers. "Oh... no worries, one last question." Ryan hold his finger up. "okay." She laughs. "Violet, will you go on a date with me?" 

"uhh.. I am flattered, honestly, and you're a great guy. But, I..." Violet trails off. "like someone else?" Ryan looks at her. "yeah... I actually just went on a date 2 days ago." She bites her cheek. "Oh, was it good?" Ryan awkwardly asks. "yea, actually. We went to this spot and he is the most charm- I should stop talking now." Violet rambles. "We're still dance partners, right?" Ryan picks his head up. "definitely." She smiles. "I'll see you around." Ryan waves. "see ya." 

"That wasn't just a 'what's up.'" Flynn and Julie walk up to Violet. "Ryan wanted to go on a date..." 

Julie gasps. 

"...and I said shot him down." Violet looks at them.  "Why?" Flynn questions. "you know what you said, this Luke thing won't go away and... uhm..." Violet trails. "Yeah, It's never gonna go away." Her faces turns a beat red. "You're hiding something." Julie points. "I went on a date this weekend... with Luke." Violet gulps. "He's a ghost.!" Flynn interrupts. "a cute ghost. That I can somehow touch." Violet continues. "wait- how?" Julie asks. "I- I don't know! I think that, based off of research, it is because I'm attached to his soul?" Violet guesses. "That's creepy." Flynn says. 

"Awwee, Our baby's already grown up." Julie gushes to Flynn. "Julie, I'm older than you!" Violet argues. "she chooses to like someone who doesn't really exist, but she's all grown up." Flynn agrees. 

"But he does exist, to me. He might just be air, but, we connect in so many other ways." Violet explains. "You are the most watchable duetters I've ever seen." Flynn agrees. "it's not just singing. We somehow even have the same writing spot. Plus, when we do write, it's from the same pain. Our moms. My mom isn't actually dead, but it sure feels like it. I mean, she sees me, what? Once a year. One day out of Three Hundred and Sixty-Five?" Violet continues. "Don't make us cry." Julie tells her. "Yeah, I'm having a really good eyeliner day." Flynn wipes her eyes. 

"it's just, Luke's hurting so much and- and I don't know how to help or even if I can." Tears spring into Violets eyes. "maybe you could write him a song!" Julie gasps. "Make him feel better!" Flynn nudges her. 

"Oh my God!! Y'all are like- little geniuses!" Violet turns to run. "Not shorty V talking." Julie says. "V! You still have class!" Flynn yells. "Shi- Shoot. I do." Violet continues to walk at a fast pace in the same direction. Flynn hurries to her and drags her to class. "geniuses..." Violet mutters. 

~~~~~~

Violet walks up the stairs, towards the front door.  She was about to ring the doorbell, before she hears a poof right next to her. She looks, "Luke." 

"What are you doing here?"

"um...," Violet paused for a second before continuing, "Have you ever felt that even though the person is right there, in the palm of your hand, you can't talk to them?" Violet takes a few steps towards him. "wait, stupid question. I'm not saying I feel the same you do, nor is my situation similar to yours. I know I can always just text my mom or call her, if I really wanted to. but..."

"I don't even know what I'd say to her, even if she could hear me." Luke pointed to the house. 

"Yes, you do. Trust me on this, that you've already said it." Violet looks up at him. Luke walked backwards and pressed the doorbell before standing behind her.

The front door opened revealing Luke's father. "Can I help you?"

"Hi, I'm Violet. I believe you had a son named Luke?" Violet introduced herself.

"Yes, that's right, and you are?"

"I'm Violet Stacy. Luke and his band played at my friends garage." Violet reached into her pocket, "We found a song that he wrote and figured you might be interested. The only reason she isn't here with me is because she's uh- sick." Violet held out the song. 

"Yes, uh. Please, come in. I'm Mitch." Mitch invited her in. 

"nice to meet you." 

Violet walks in before motioning Luke to follow and closing the door. 

"Can I get you something?" Mitch offered. "Oh, no thank you." Violet declined. 

Violet steps towards a picture on the table, "Is this your son?" she smiles. 

"Yea, that's Luke, when he was two." 

"Do you have any other children?" Violet asked making Mitch shake his head in return, "No."

A nice lady walks in, "Did I hear the doorbell?" she smiles.

"Yes, uh, this is Violet." Mitch introduces her.

"Violet Stacy, it's nice to meet you." Violet repeats.

"Hello, Violet. Did you say Stacy?" Luke's mom asks.

"Yes." Violet smiles, not thinking much of it. 

"Violet's friend lives in the house where Luke and his band rehearsed," Mitch informs his wife, "She was just telling me they found a song Luke wrote." 

"It's a song about a girl named Emily?" Violet asks.

"I'm Emily." Luke's mom looks up. 

"Then I think your son may have written this song about you." Violet hands her the paper.

Luke:

First things first

We start the scene in reverse
All of the lines rehearsed
Disappeared from my mind 

Luke is seen having a huge argument with Emily and packing a bag. 

When things got loud
One of us running out
I should've turned around
But I had too much pride.

Luke rides off on his bike with Emily chasing after him.

No time for goodbyes
Didn't get to apologize
Pieces of a clock that lies broken

Emily cries, trying to explain what had just happened to Mitch.

Luke writes and crosses out words nonstop into his notebook at the garage. 

If I could take us back, if I could just do that
And write in every empty space the words "I love you" in replace
Then maybe time would not erase me 

A sudden realization hits Luke.

If you could only know I'd never let you go
And the words I most regret are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid Emily

Luke plays guitar around a stool, singing. 

Silent days, mysteries and mistakes
Who'd be the first to break?
Guess we're alike that way

Luke peers above a bush at Emily, who cradles a picture to her chest, looking out into the backyard. Luke ducks down before he can be seen.

He said, she said
Conversations in my head
And that's just where they're gonna stay forever

If I could take us back, if I could just do that

Luke, Alex, Reggie, and Bobby are seen playing their instruments.

And write in every empty space the words "I love you" in replace
Then maybe time would not erase me
If you could only know I'd never let you go
And the words I most regret are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid Emily

(Ah-ah-ah)
(Ah-ah-ah)

Blue lights flash the TV as Mitch reads a book and Emily knits. A look of realization hits as Emily breaks down and Mitch is in disbelief. 

If I could take us back, if I could just do that
And write in every empty space the words "I love you" in replace
Then maybe time would not erase me

Luke appears, singing near the door way. 

If you could only know I'd never let you go
And the words I most regret are the ones I never meant to leave
Unsaid Emily.

Emily clutches the paper to her chest, crying, "thank you."

"you have no idea." Mitch starts.

"I write music in the same places he did." a tear streams down Violet face. 

Luke looks at her.

"And I can tell you it is a magical, happy, place." Violet states.

"It's nice to know." Mitch smiles.

"I know he was only 17 when he, but he lived doing the one thing he was born to do." Violet smiles, "not many people find that, but Luke did, he was lucky." 

Luke wipes the tears from his face before disappearing. 

"it was so nice to meet you." Emily tells her.

"It was nice to meet you too." Violet smiles before walking out. 

Meanwhile, in the Patterson house,

"Does the last name Stacy sound familiar to you?"
