The moment I heard her start playing her guitar I knew what song it was. Yellow by Coldplay.
I decide to move closer so I can see the girl singing. I move to a table that was right up next to the stage. I can see her fingers strum the guitar and her lips turn into a smile as she sings on. She looks to be about a little bit younger then me,not very tall but she stands like she is. Her long dark hair is in a messy bun and her eyebrows are thick and dark just like her hair. Her skin is pale and her icy blue eyes stand out the most. I couldn't stop staring at her,I don't know why, it just seems like she is drawing me in. She notices I'm staring at her and she smiles,I turn away blushing,but turn back to her when I know she's not looking at me. She is like a work of art,the more you look at her the more beauty you see. When she is done with the song I clap my hands what seems to be the loudest clap out of everyone. I decide to walk up to the sage and throw her $10 in her guitar case. There is about 12 1's and a couple 5 dollars.
"Thank you." I hear a soft voice say. I look up to see it was the girl who was smiling at me. When she smiles I can see her dimples in her cheeks.
I'm speechless,my stomach feels strange and warmness fills my cheeks. I'm frozen. On stage. Just staring at her. I'm so stupid.
"Would you like to request a song?" She asks looking at me. She must think I'm crazy.
"Yellow by Coldplay." I swallow hard.
"I just sang that song." She giggles. I'm such an idiot. "Would you like me to do it again?" She asks picking up her guitar. I nod my head and return back to my seat.
I feel so embarrassed and stupid. How can I just freeze up like that,I've been around lots of beautiful girls. But she made me feel different,she made me feel vulnerable.
Oh Lila, oh Lila.... THAT'S BEAUTIFUL. You are so talented!
ReplyDeleteI love it. Teach me the ways of writing stories like that!
Really? *tears up* You are beyond sweet. I really can't stop smiling. My sister is like "Why are you smiling like that?" I'm just like "I love people." I really am not a great writer,I just started working on a story for NaNoWriMo and I haven't really worked on it for awhile. But I thought I would give it a shot and post a part of it.
DeleteYES really! I wish I could always write like you do, most of the stories you see on my blog are little bursts of ''yay-I-can-actually-write-today'' that I get a few times every month.
