I Still Think You're Beautiful and I Don't Ever Want to Lose My Best Friend
Do Overs and Second Chances Part 2
I woke up to a loud crashing noise, jumping out of my bed I check my phone for the time, 7:30, it must be my aunt coming to get breakfast and leaving again for work. I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror. Deciding to throw my hair up in a bun on the top of my head I padded barefoot in my pajamas, well what I consider pajamas, my sports bra and short shorts.
As I walk in to the kitchen, I don’t find my aunt, I find Vic making pancakes. I looked down at what I was wearing and back up again, I’m sure I look like a cartoon character of some sort right now, but I’m beyond caring! I turned quickly to try to get back up the stairs without Vic noticing that I was in the kitchen, but me being the not-so-ninja that I am knocked a spatula off the counter making Vic jump and turn around. I immediately flush red as he sees my ensemble. Vic stared for a moment and then laughed.
“You thought I was going to be your aunt didn’t you?” Vic accused.
“Yeah, but I don’t know why, she’s never here,” I said laughing, “I should have suspected it would have been you, especially since you have a key.” Vic just nods, too busy still staring intently at me. I turn to go out of the kitchen to go get dressed.
“Don’t worry about it, I like the way you look,” Vic said pulling me back into the kitchen. I used the momentum to get over by the batter bowl, dipping my hand in I grab a handful and fling it in Vic’s face. Vic gasped in shock and put his hand in the batter bowl, seeing his retaliation coming from a mile away I started running.
“I’m gonna get you for that!”
“You’ve gotta catch me first!” This of course led to a food fight that ended up in the backyard by the pool. Vic caught up to me and threw me over his shoulder and jumped into the cold water, I screamed at the temperature change and splashed Vic who just laughed and hugged me. I love the way laugh sounded, so happy and warm.
After a half hour or so we figured that we should go have breakfast, so I went we went inside and I got showered and dressed for the day, making sure to wear one of Vic’s sweaters that he’s left here over the years and brought some dry clothes down for Vic, he keeps them here for cases like this.
I go down stairs and meet him in the kitchen and throw his clothes in his face, he goes to get changed and I take up 2 plates of breakfast for Vic and I. Just as I am about to take my first bite of my now cold breakfast Vic walks through the doorway and joins me grabbing the plate that I made him and sits down next to me.
“Thanks for the breakfast by the way,” I said honestly, “ you really didn’t have to do that.”
“No worries, love, consider it my apology breakfast.” Vic answered, I couldn’t help but feel a slight zing through my body when he called me “love”, but I tried not to let that get to me.
“So, what do you want to do today?” Vic asked.
“I dunno, I’ve been writing a song, do you want to hear it?” I asked and Vic’s face lit up, “I’ll take that as a yes then?” Vic just nodded excitedly.
“Okay, go sit in the living room, I’ll be right there.” Vic nodded and I ran up the stairs to grab my guitar and made it back to the living room in record time. I sat down next to Vic and took a deep breath.
“You ready?” I asked, he nodded excitedly as I started strumming the opening notes, I spoke over the chords, “I wrote this as a duet, so I’ll try my best.”
She sits up high surrounded by the sun
One million branches and she loves every one
"Mom and dad, did you search for me?
I've been up here so long I'm going crazy!"
And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3-2-1 where did it go?
Now don't be crazy
Yes now of course you can stay here.
Been in a touring band for going on ten years.
"Big deal," she said, "I guess you're official."
I only said it 'cause I know what it's like to feel
Burned out
It gets you down,
We've all been there sometimes
But tonight I'll make you feel beautiful once again
And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound (over the sound)
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
3-2-1 where did it go?
If I were you, I'd put that away
See, you're just wasted
And thinking about the past again
Darling you'll be okay
As I sang I tried to make as much eye contact with him as I could, hopefully letting him know that this song was about us.
And she said,
"If you were me, you'd do the same
'Cause I can't take anymore
I'll draw the shades and close the door
Everything's not alright and I would rather..."
And as the sun went down we ended up on the ground
I heard the train shake the windows
You screamed over the sound (over the sound)
And as we own this night
I put your body to the test with mine
This love was out of control
Tell me where did it go? (A/N link in the notes for Hold on ‘til May by Pierce the Veil)
When I finished playing I couldn’t describe the look on Vic’s face, proud, excited, love, it was all mixed together. I felt butterflies in my stomach as Vic’s hand moved to the side of my face, it was like there was an electric charge where he touched me, he slowly moved in and I held my breath not wanting to ruin the moment, just as his lips brush mine the doorbell rings.I pulled away sighing.
I went to go answer the door, if I’m not mistaken, I heard Vic punch something. I answered the door and realizing just as I did that I had forgotten that Tony was coming over. Shit!
“Hey turtle, what’s up?”
“Not much, sorry I didn’t text you to let you know I was on my way, my phone died.” Tony explained as we walked toward the living room.
“What have you been up to today?” He asked.
“Not much, just hanging out with Vic, I think we finally worked things out.” I said hoping that I wasn’t blushing.
“Oh. That’s good.” Tony replied clearly trying to sound supportive.
“Yeah, we’re just about to watch a movie, come join us?” I asked hoping that things would not get awkward.
