CHARLIE AND HIS FAMILY LEFT yesteday night around 8pm. seeing as they were going back up to canada. zayn on the other hand was staying for the week. it was around 12pm and skylar was sitting in front of her grand piano, her 'baby baldwin' as she likes to call it. she played the familiar keys to the song she's been working on 'too sad to cry'

"wasn't raised religious
but i wish that i was
havin' nothin' to believe in
has been killin' my buzz" her perfect voice melded with the melody to the the first verse

"yeah, i cut my hair, close the blinds
play hallelujah like two dozen times
and yesterday, i tried to pray
but i didn't know what to say"

"i'm too sad to cry, too high to get up
don't even try 'cause i'm scared to fuck up
don't like to talk, i just lay in my bed
don't even try to go out with my friends
lied to my doctor, she knew i was fakin'
gave me some pills, but i'm too scared to take 'em
i try and i try, but i'm too sad to cry"

"can't tell my mamma
it makes her worry
i'm not suicidal
sometimes, the lines get all blurry"

"yeah, i cut my hair, close the blinds
played hallelujah like two dozen times
and yesterday, i tried to pray
but i didn't know what to say"

"i'm too sad to cry, too high to get up
don't even try 'cause i'm scared to fuck up
don't like to talk, i just lay in my bed
don't even try to go out with my friends
i lied to my doctor, she knew i was fakin'
gave me some pills, but i'm too scared to take 'em
i try and i try, but i'm too sad to cry"

"i'm too sad to cry, too high to get up
don't even try 'cause i'm scared to fuck up
don't like to talk, i just lay in my bed
don't even try to go out with my friends
lied to my doctor, she knew i was fakin'
gave me some pills, but i'm too scared to take 'em
i try and i try, but i'm too sad to cry" she finished singing, her fingers lifted themselves from the piano keys and rested on her lap

"you have a beautiful voice, you know that?" a voice spoke up from behind her. she turned around to see her sister's boyfriend, zayn. he was leaned against the wall, hands folded against his chest

a small smile tugged on her lips. harry styles was always her favorite from one direction, but zayn was always the second. so to hear those words come from a musician she loves to listen to is something she'll forever hold close to heart. she shrugged her shoulders "heard it a few times" she grinned with a soft chuckle

a similar chuckle left zayn's lips "ella, tells me you're writing your first ever album" he said, giving her a small encouraging smile
