Chapter 21
Danny's POV
Once everyone got downstairs for karaoke, everyone waited their turn to sing a song. Valerie sang If I Ain't Got You by Alicia Keys, Mikey sang Teenagers by My Chemical Romance, Lester sang Golden by Harry Styles, Tucker sang I Gotta Feeling by Black Eyed Peas, Paulina sang Till The World Ends by Britney Spears, Star sang Flowers by Miley Cyrus, Kwan sang Thnks Fr Th Mmrs by Fall Out Boy, Dash sang Beautiful Soul by Jesse McCartney, Sam sung Monster by Paramore, and Dani sang Vampire by Olivia Rodrigo. Jazz unfortunately can't sing but she was just happy to hang out with us. Now, it was Rylee's turn. "You've got this, Rylee."
Rylee's POV
I was shaking so much due to how nervous I was but I knew what song I wanted to sing. "You've got this, Rylee." I took Danny's word for it as I walked up to the microphone. I took a deep breath and began to sing.
Skyscraper (Rock Version) by Demi Lovato
Skies are crying
I am watching
Catching teardrops in my hands
Only silence
As it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of Paper
And go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a Skyscraper
Like a Skyscraper
As the smoke clears
I awaken
And untangle you from me
Would it make you
Feel better
To watch me while I bleed
All my window still are broken
But I'm standing on my feet
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
And go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a Skyscraper
Like a Skyscraper
Go run run run
I'm gonna stay right here
Watch you disappear
Yeah oh
Go run run run
Yeah it's long way down
But I'm closer to the clouds up here
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Oh woah
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a Skyscraper
Like a Skyscraper
Like a Skyscraper
Like a Skyscraper
I felt everything in my heart and soul from all my traumatic experiences while singing my song. After I finished, I felt stronger than ever and everyone applauded. I went over to Danny for a hug. "Rylee, that was so beautiful. Your voice is so beautiful and powerful. I loved every single minute of your song." Danny sat me in his lap and kissed me on the cheek. "Thanks so much, Danny."
Danny's POV
Everyone including myself were in complete shock at how good Rylee's voice was. She's such a tiny little thing yet she has this powerful and emotional voice that just came out of nowhere. I knew she sang that song in response to everything that has happened in her past and I am so proud of her for showing what she's truly capable of. "Alright, Danny. You're up." I gently set Rylee down on the couch as I went up to sing my song. I wanted to pick a song truly represents how much I love Rylee so I picked Little Things by One Direction
You're hand fits in mine like it's made just for me
But bear this in mind it was meant to be
And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on cheeks
And it all makes sense to me
I know you never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile
You never loved your stomach or your thighs
The dimples in the back at the bottom of your spine
But I'll love them endless
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if I do, it's you, oh, it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all these little things
(I walked a little closer to Rylee as I continued singing)
You can't go to bed without a cup of tea
And maybe that's the reason you talk in your sleep
And all those conversations are the secrets that I keep
Though it makes no sense to me
I know you never loved the sound of your voice on tape
You never want to know how much you weigh
You still love to squeeze into your jean
But you're perfect to me
I won't let these little things slip out my mouth
But if it's true, it's you, it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all these little things
(I reached out to Rylee to take my hand)
You'll never love yourself half as much as I love you
And you never treat yourself right, darling, but I want you to
(I knelt down in front of her still holding her hand)
If let you know, I'm here for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you, oh
I've just let these little things slip out of my mouth
'Cause it's you, oh, it's you, it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all your little things
I won't let these little things slip out of my mouth
But if it's true, it's you, it's you, they add up to
I'm in love with you and all your little things
Everyone applauded as I gave Rylee a kiss on the cheek and gave her the biggest hug I've ever given her. "That was so beautiful, Danny. No one has ever dedicated a song to me before." I slowly let go and sat down next to her. "I picked this song because it represented how much I truly love you. The moment I answered the door, I felt nothing but love for you. We may have a huge height difference but that's what makes me love you even more. I'm a gentle giant who loves his sweet little angel." Everyone went 'aww' as she leaned in to hug me. "That is just the cutest thing I've ever seen." Said Paulina with tears in her eyes same time as Rylee. Dash and I wiped the tears off of both our girlfriends faces. "Looks like both of us have emotional girlfriends, Danny." We all chuckled in response. We then all went back upstairs to have chocolate cake that Sam made and we all chatted with each other. Rylee was over at the corner talking to Star and Paulina while I was talking to Dash and Kwan. "I'm really glad Rylee came today. She really had me worried when I saw how pale she was yesterday." Said Dash. "Yeah. I was a little worried about that today when we woke up this morning because I wanted to make sure she's okay but she's definitely gotten her strength back. She might've had one of those overnight things." I said looking over to Rylee. "Although I feel like part of it could've been nerves." I said. "It could be. She's probably still trying to adjust being in a new town and new people but it seems like she's getting along with all of us pretty well." Said Kwan. "She is such a sweetheart. She may be very shy but she's definitely more outgoing once she gets to know people." I said. "I don't think I can say she's shy anymore due to how well she sang that song." Kwan and I chuckled in response. "I never knew she could sing until today. Sam told me she did some TikTok videos of her singing and I feel so bad for not watching them." I said still in shock. "I've watched them a couple times and always thought her singing was good but seeing her sing in person really blew me away. Who knew someone so tiny could have such a big voice." Said Kwan. "I know right? I'm just so proud of her."
Rylee's POV
I was talking to Star and Paulina while we all spread out in different areas of the dining room. "So, how's everything with you and Danny?" Asked Paulina. "Everything's great. He's just the sweetest person ever. I've always been a fan of his before I moved here and the fact that he's even nicer in person just made me feel so welcome. I love him so much." I said looking over at Danny. "He's always treated his fans with kindness. I've seen so many famous people treat their fans horribly but Danny has always been nice to people. The only time he gets mad at a fan is if they violate his privacy." Said Star. "That's understandable. I'd be pretty mad too because some people just don't understand boundaries." I said. "You're definitely a lot different than all of his other fans and I can definitely tell how much he loves you." I was about to respond to what Paulina was saying until someone I felt some big strong arms hug me from behind which scared me a little. I then realized it was Danny when he kissed my cheek. "Did I scare you, sweetheart?" Asked Danny as Paulina and Star chuckled. "A little." I said with a smile. "I'm sorry. I just wanted to surprise you." I then grabbed his hands as he continued hugging me. "Sometimes I forget I'm a ghost." I giggled in response as I turned to wrap my arms around his waist. "It's ok, Danny." That's when everyone gathered around us. "You two are just so cute together." Said Mikey. "She's definitely the perfect girl for you, Danny." Said Valerie. "I couldn't have ask for anyone better." I began tear up again. "Thanks, Danny." Everyone went aww as I looked up at Danny still hugging him. "Such a gentle giant with his little angel." We all chuckled in response to Dash as we all enjoyed this moment.
