Don't Rain On My Parade
Your Eyes Look Hungry Again
|Taylor's POV|
At lunch I grab a salad and head to the tree in the courtyard where we normally have lunch. Tony, Jaime, and Vic were already sitting there, chatting.
"Hey, boys." I say throwing my bag on the ground.
Tony grinned a the sight of me. "Hey, Tay," I roll my eyes at the nickname. "Just telling Vic how killer you are on the drums."
This is true. I never really thought of myself as 'killer' though. I still remember the first time Tony and Jaime heard me play.
It was on the first Monday they had spent at my house for video games and meatballs. We went down to basement when Jaime asked me to play something. It was a very complex fill back then for me, I have gotten way better, though. Looking back it was actually pretty easy.
"Hey, you know Mike plays drums, too." Vic says with an eyebrow high.
"No way!"
"No way what?" Mike comes up behind me.
"I didn't know you play drums. I do, too" I say with a smile. He wrapped his arm around my waist. I blush.
"Tony says she's 'killer'." Vic says. We turn towards Tony. His head was hung low. He was fine a second ago?
|Tony' s POV|
Fuck. It's like a stab in the heart to see his arm slip around her. Not even a day and he already has her wrapped around his boney little finger. I think to myself.
I look up and see everyone staring at me.
"What?" I ask. I must have spaced something.
"You say Tay' s pretty good with the drums?" Mike asks.
I can't look him in the eyes. I nod. "Crazy good."
"You know," Mike says turning towards Taylor. "Drummers hit it harder." His smirk growing wide. I see her eyes get really wide and her jaw hits the ground.
"Mike!" Vic yells with a disgusted look on his face.
"What? It's true!"

|Mikes POV|
After school we all head to Taylor's place.
"So," Taylor says, plopping down on her couch. "What you guys wanna play?"
"Guitar Hero!" Jaime says walking out into the living room, opening a bag of chips.
"We both know Tony will be bored with that. He's to good." Tay sighs watching Jaime put a fist full of chips into his mouth.
"I can challenge him." Vic interferes.
"Yeah, Vic is amazing with the guitar." I say sitting on the couch inbetween Tony and Tay.
"Game on." Tony jumps up to put in the game and grabs the plastic little guitars. Jaime runs up and steals his seat on the couch, hitting me moving me closer to Tay. I didn't mind.
"Here," Tony hands a guitar to Vic. "What song?"
~
After a few songs, Vic had proven himself to Tony.
"Shit man!" Tony slaps his hand on Vic's shoulder.
"I take that as a compliment?" Vic laughs.
I look over at Tay to see here glued to her phone. I grab it out of her hands and run to the other end of the room with it.
"Mike!" She yells, I hold the phone over my head as she tries to jump to get it.
"Who you texting?" I look up at the phone.
"No one! Give it!" She tries pulling on my arm to get at it.
I look at her then back at the phone. I quickly punch my number into her contact list. "Now you have my number." I grin giving it back to her. "Text me." I say with a wink.
She smirks and we sit back down on the couch. I slide my arm over her shoulders and she slides a little closer to me, resting her head on my shoulder. I could have stayed that way for a long time.
|Taylor's POV|
I didn't know this happened in real life. Only movies, right? I get comfy on Mike's shoulder, my heart beating a little faster. For some reason, I finally felt like I belonged. Belonged with Mike, as if we were made to fit together.
I look at my phone to check te time. It's only 5 o'clock. My mom wouldn't be home till 9. I can live with that.
Vic handed Jaime the guitar. Jaime wasn't half bad. He was more entertaining to warch his facial expressions. Every time they would offer the guitar to me or Mike we would deny, saying we'd rather just watch. I'm glad he denied because he was very comfy.
Every time Tony had the guitar he would try to coax one of us to do it. Even after the fourth deny he still was pushing one of us to do it. What was he doing? Didn't he realize I was fine here, just watching with Mike?
