"No Ross no, goddamn it, that doesn't sound right!" I exclaimed for the third time in the past 20 minutes. Ross said I was sat in the back of the schools auditorium trying to work on out first song. The show was about this girl and boy who fell in love but her parents didn't approve of their relationship, he and her dad didn't get along they were always fighting and her mother was always busy so she was looking for some attention and love, so they decided to elope and while they were away she got pregnant, they were only 19 they both got scared argued and fought, and  I swear I don't know what happened after I think one of them almost committed suicide?, i have to go to sir when the time comes to write the other songs.

Ross and I were having A struggle writing, I mean he was A good writer and so was I, And HELL he had the voice too, but some how our work wasn't connecting.

"Okay, okay fine." he said exasperated he placed he notepad down on the empty chair next to him and turned in his sit tucking one leg under the other so he could see me better, his guitar was placed on the Ground. he pulled my hands into his, smiling at me.

"What are we doing ross, I don't have time to waist." I said looking up on the stage were A guy fell off of the ladder trying to climb up and paint A tree.

"We are going to stare at each other in the eyes till something connects, and we can work skillfully together." he said grinning at me  as he took had fingers to turn my chin to look at him.

clenching my jaws I looked at him with a serious face as I took my hands out of his.

"One don't touch me, Two don't touch me, three I don't have time for this bullshit." I said bending to pick up his guitar as I started strumming some notes.

The first we were told to write was after they argued and they were making up.

after playing some tunes so me words came to my mind

"I found my self dreaming

In silver and Gold....

mumbling some other words that didn't make sense I kept repeating the first two lines till ross continued

Like a scene from a movie

That every broken heart knows we were walking on moonlight"

He sang. I sounded good smiling up at him he laughed at how it was finally working out.

"That's good, that's good." he said smiling as he began writing. "I have another Idea before we continue, you're A girl, all girls have things they'd like on dates, or things they think are romantic , how about you list some, or you know what along with that, list stuff that girls go through in love, or just things that's gonna sound nice in the song." he said taking back his guitar form me and handing me the notepad and pen.

"umm, uh okay. let's see, movies, dreams, tears, heart breaks, lost, truth, trust, kisses, time,emotion, underestimate.do you really want to go on?" I asked finally looking up only to see him staring at an expression on his face I couldn't explain.

"what?"

"have you ever been in love?" he asked seriously eyes piercing through mine like he was trying to read my soul.

"that's non of your business." I said turning my face to look on the stage people were laughing and arguing.

"Why are you always so closed off? I know what forget I ask. let's work on the song." he said coldly.

and that we did after two whole hours we got something.

"Alright let's see what we Got." Ross said sir Allen had come and was now ready to here what we got.

"Ready ?" ross asked as he looked at me with a raised eyebrows, which he receive a nob from me and he stared playing. as I started singing.

I found myself dreaming

In silver and gold

Like a scene from a movie

That every broken heart knows we were walking on moonlight

And you pulled me close

Split second and you disappeared and then I was all alone

I woke up in tears

With you by my side

A breath of relief

And I realized

No, we're not promised tomorrow

As I began singing the chorus alone I closed my eyes as we had started gaining a crowd. I guess people just wanted to here Ross sing, but still , i hated attention.

So I'm gonna love you

Like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna hold you

Like I'm saying goodbye wherever we're standing

I won't take you for granted 'cause we'll never know when

When we'll run out of time so I'm gonna love you

Like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

Breathing heavily, inhaled A sharp breathe as ross began singing he second Verse on his own. hi voice did something to me that blond boy.

In the blink of an eye

Just a whisper of smoke

You could lose everything

The truth is you never know

So I'll kiss you longer baby

Any chance that I get

I'll make the most of the minutes and love with no regrets

Let's take our time

To say what we want

Use what we got

Before it's all gone

'Cause no, we're not promised tomorrow

HALLEALUJUAH. NO LAURA STOP WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU.

looking at him, he smiled at me as we began singing the chorus again together, i decided to just stare at his fingers as they moved on the guitar.

So I'm gonna love you

Like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna hold you

Like I'm saying goodbye wherever we're standing

I won't take you for granted 'cause we'll never know when

When we'll run out of time so I'm gonna love you

Like I'm gonna lose you

I'm gonna love you like I'm gonna lose you

As Ross  strummed the last few chords, I exhaled and looked up at mr Allen who was smiling at us, well more like grinning. the few kids around us started clapping, more for ross, I guess people was really surprised as I was the first time hearing him sing, I mean the popular jock can sing. people began moving back to there previous work as sir sent them back.

"Good goooood me likey, but I have new for you guys, perfect song, it will work well, But." he said looking between both of us.

"UH OH," I started already knowing it would be bad, but hold on "but wait, what it if it's a good but, what if the but means, ross, laura we  found someone to replace you guys and the principle took away your punishment." i said  already getting excited, ross beside me had an amuse expression on his face, as sir chuckle

"Funny; but I don't think you're gonna like my announcement, So things are moving smoothly we found our to leading acting, that's good news, bad news is neither of them can sing, I mean NEITHER, they're both terrible at it, so I spoke to Ms Sullen I told her I found a way it could work out, here's what's gonna happen, you guys are gonna be singing for them, Live."" he said.

I gave the news a few minutes to sink in.

"you mean as in we'll have a mic and be singing back stage as they lip sinc?" I asked

"That's a good idea, but no, what will happen is, we'll have some stage in the air, well it's this thing, I don't know how to explain it but it will be suspended in the air as the both of you will be dresses up, and singing infront of the crowd on it, so Laura what ever song Is to be sung for the female lead that's Cara, you'll be singing for  in Angela's place, Angela, is acting as Cara. same goes for ross, he'll be singing in Andrew's place, Andrew is acting as Michael the male lead.          (I swear idk if u guys understood any of that).

"but sir, I can't."

" and why not laura?"

"becau-I-me-I just can't"

"remember what I told you guys no but's, if, what's, maybes. Trust me one day you guys will thank me for doing this." he said walking away and going back to the front.

ross beside me was silent looking at him, I saw he was already looking at me.

"what, you're okay with this?" I asked him

"Yea why not?" he said as he began packing his stuff in his backpack.

"urge, of course. Hi um can you give me A ride, it's kinda late and my street isn't safe to walk alone around this time." I said as I placed my back on my shoulder as we exit the auditorium.

"I wasn't gonna let you walk on your own any ways Peony." he said smirking at me.

"Why do you keep calling ,me that?, what that's the name of one of the girls you hooked up with?" I asked as we got in his range rover. he raised his eyebrows questioningly at me probably cause of my last statement.

"Well because, Peony's are, soft, delicate, beautiful and fluffy, and that's all you, well maybe I can question the delicate part, you are very aggressive." he said smiling as we hit the road.

"did you just call me fluffy?" I asked, when the true question in my head was he thought I was beautiful someone actually though I was beautiful.

"Yes, yes I did, and yes Laura, you are beautiful, very beautiful." he said smiling at me for a quick second before he took one of his hands off of the staring wheel, to grab my hand that was on my lap.

"Ew get your boyish hands off of me, I don't know what you did with them ." I said loudly squealing in disgust, making him laugh really hard.

"You'll be the death of me Peony." he said smiling at me again this time with both his hands on the staring wheel.
