I Still Think You're Beautiful and I Don't Ever Want to Lose My Best Friend
Broken
As we walked out the door Tony started with 20 question, it surprised me how much he was speaking, he seemed so quiet around everyone else.
"What's your favourite colour," he asked childishly.
"Blue," I stated as if it were obvious as I pointed to my hair. He laughed and looked away nervously.
"What's your favourite animal?" I asked already knowing the answer to the question.
"Come on, actually challenge me! I obviously love turtles, they're just so awesome," he went on rambling about how awesome turtles were and included some 'fun facts', I just rolled my eyes at him and giggled at his adorableness. He looked over at me and gave me a heart-melting smile.
"Would you sing a song with me?" He asked with pleading eyes seeming more confident around me then he was 15 minutes ago. I guess it was his turn to ask a question and I was playing the game, so I couldn't say no, right? I rolled my eyes again
"Fine, what are we singing?" He laughed and clapped his hands like an excited child on Christmas morning.
"Do you know Broken by Seether?"
"Of course I do! Who doesn't?"
By this point we were back at my house and my aunt wasn't home, she had probably decided to stay at her boyfriend's house again, so I offered him to come inside so that we could use my guitar and make the song sound better.
I grabbed Tony by the hand and dragged him up to my room where I hid my guitar and music that I had been secretly working on.
"Do you want to play or will I?" I asked knowing that one of his main passions was guitar and to be fair since he was the one to ask me to sing with him.
"You play, I actually don't know the chords for the song, I thought we were just going to be singing it," he explained embarrassed.
"No need to be embarrassed about it Turtle, you don't have to know how to play everything," he smiled appreciatively. "Are you ready?" I asked getting ready to play the intro to the song (A/N link in the notes again) getting excited to be playing with/for someone again. He nodded and I started.
"I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain"
I looked up into Tony's eyes as he was singing, seeing his passion for music.
"'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
You've gone away, you don't feel me here anymore"
I melted on the inside as he sang to me, I couldn't help but compare him to Vic, for better and worse. Tony broke me out of my daze by laughing at me and I realized that I had missed my cue.
"Oops, sorry, I was ,er, distracted," I said blushing scarlet, "I'm just gonna start back from my part again."
"Alright sweetheart," he said laughing again. If there was any hope of me hiding my mixed emotions I just lost it right there, obviously. I just hope he doesn't try anything, I still really like Vic and I just met Tony today.
I started again and got my cue this time.
"The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There's so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain"
We sang together giving me butterflies as we harmonized with the perfect amount of dissonance and pitch matching (A/N sorry if you don't know what those terms mean, I'm a music person, just ask if you don't know).
"'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore
'Cause I'm broken when I'm open
And I don't feel like I am strong enough
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
'Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
And I don't feel right when you're gone away
You've gone away
You don't feel me here anymore "
As we reached the last note Tony took the guitar out of my hands and placed the guitar on the bed beside us and pulled me in for a hug.
Tony's POV
I don't know what was coming over me, I've known this amazing girl for under 24 hours and all I want to do is kiss her, so I did exactly that. I pulled her in for a hug then I pulled back slightly and so did she, but I leaned forward and kissed her softly tasting her lipgloss on my lips, she pulled back slowly with an awkward look on her face.
"Look, Tony, I like you, but I'm a little confused right now, I mean I just met you today and I really don't know if I feel that way about you yet," she said slowly, trying to explain without hurting my feelings. I sighed and looked up to her,
"You like Vic, don't you?" I ask, hoping that the answer would be no.
"Well, yeah, I kinda like Vic, but he doesn't like me, and that's not the reason I said what I did , not to say that it wasn't a contributing factor, I obviously don't want to lead you on, but I've only ever been in one relationship and it was really shitty, I don't want to fuck another one up by moving too fast, please don't tell Vic what I've said, I think he's too embarrassed to date me anyhow, but give it some time Turtle, I plan on being around a lot, who knows what could happen," Anna said with tears in her eyes as we walked down the stairs toward the front door. I opened the front door,
"I understand sweetheart, it's okay," I actually did understand was the strange part, "don't worry bout Vic, I wont tell him if you don't want me to, I promise." I gave her a hug and she kissed my cheek and said goodnight.
When I was about halfway down the drive way I heard her call out,
"Thank you Turtle!" I turned and smiled and waved as I walked, heading back to Vic's house, knowing that the guys would still be there.
"What's your favourite colour," he asked childishly.
"Blue," I stated as if it were obvious as I pointed to my hair. He laughed and looked away nervously.
"What's your favourite animal?" I asked already knowing the answer to the question.
