Alright I apologize for the wait. I really wanted to go see FSOG today, but I couldn't. So i was mad, but it's fine now. If I'm lucky, I can see it tomorrow. I don't really care when I fucking see it, I just wanna see it in general. I talk a lot at the end, so make sure you read it. lol
Enjoy this chapter. :) I'll fix any mistakes later.
Chapter 18: She Stays In Love
Nia
As I was wiping down the tables with John, Tod our chef is cleaning up back in the kitchen. We were about to close up and I my back sort of hurt from bending over so much.
“You dare me to get up there and sing?” I asked John, not really being serious.
He was behind the counter, making himself a glass of water. “Yeah, even better let’s make a bet,” I shake my head at him, but let him continue on.
“If you get up there and Tod the chef thinks your good, then you have to sing during work time. If Tod thinks your shitty then you have to serve drinks make drinks.” I groan at his request.
“The weirdos always come up to me and try to hit on me.”
John laughs, “Poor you.” Tod comes out, drying off his hands. “Why does Tod have to listen to me?” Johns shrugs, “Because he’s the only one here except me.”
I take off my apron and go up to the stage. Tod shines the bright stage light in my face and I squint to see. I sit down the stool to the piano and relax, wiping off my hands; I pick a song I knew off the top of my head.
“Yes I do, I believe
That one day I will be, where I was
Right there, right next to you
And it's hard, the days just seem so dark
The moon, and the stars, are nothing without you
Your touch, your skin, where do I begin?
No words can explain, the way I'm missing you
The night, this emptiness, this hole that I'm inside
These tears, they tell their own story
You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't want to be here if I can't be with you tonight
I'm reaching out to you
Can you hear my call?
This hurt that I've been through
I'm missing you, missing you like crazy
You told me not to cry when you were gone
But the feeling's overwhelming, it's much too strong
Can I lay by your side, next to you, you
And make sure you're alright
I'll take care of you
And I don't wanna be here if I can't be with you tonight.”
I smile at my skill in pulling off that song and look up. John is looking at me when his mouth agape and Todd is clapping. But he wasn’t the only one. Coming from the shadows is Aiden, he’s looking me right in the eyes and capturing me in. “I’m sorry sir, but we’re closing—“No it’s fine.” I interrupt. I get down from the stage and walk up to him.
