Chapter 8
Mick was looking at me and I was looking at him when Keith suddenly burst through the doors.
"Hello you two" he said with a glint in his eyes, "want to go out?"
Mick snapped his attention off of me and looked back at Keith, a smile on his face, "ok."
Them he turned back to me, "you in?"
I shrugged, "sure, but what about Charlie, Bill and Brian?" Especially Brian...
"Aw they're fine, Bill and Charlie were playin' cards and Brian's in 'is room"
"Oh ok" I said as we started down the hallway.
"So are you guys writing songs?" I started, "y'know, singles or anything?"
They shrugged, "well, we've got some stuff but..." Keith said
"Maybe the last time I dunno" Mick mumbled and I burst out laughing.
The pair looked at me oddly, but I kept laughing.
"H-have you..have you done that yet?!" I managed between gulps of air. Keith shook his head slowly and Mick shoved his hands in his pockets. I stopped and straightened up, brushing myself off. "Nevermind" I said with the straightest face I could muster, I started walking ahead, humming the tune to The Last Time to myself.
I heard footsteps quickly approach behind me, I smirked.
"What's that?" Keith asked, intrigued.
"What?" I asked innocently, batting my eyelashes.
"That," he scratched his neck, shrugging, "that tune, where did it come from?"
I smiled real wide and turned toward Keith, he lifted his eyes toward me uneasily. His eyes widened as I came up close to his face, "you." I whispered, then I turned and skipped down the hall.
--------------
Keith's POV:
I thought she was going to kiss me. I honestly did. But instead she whispered "you" fiercely, and now she's out the door and waiting for me and Mick to catch up.
I looked over at him and smiled, hoping I wasn't blushing.
"She's definitely not from here" Mick decided, nodding his head toward her shadow, outside the door.
"No" I agreed, "but what was that tune she was humming?"
"I dunno, maybe it's ours"
"Ours?
"Ya, but we just haven't figured it out yet, y'know?"
"Oh"
We continued walking toward the door and I looked down at my shoes.
"But she started humming after I said 'maybe the last time' so maybe those are some of the words" he shrugged.
"Hm yeah maybe" I agreed, and just then something whispered at the back of my mind; maybe the last time, I don't know, oh no, well I told once and I told ya twice...
And it was gone. I cleared my throat and nudged Mick ever so slightly with my shoulder, he looked over and I whispered very softly:
"Well I told you once and I told you twice, but you never listen to my advice...."
