Toni walked on stage, feeling all the confidence leave her body. Looking at how big the crowd was, she didn't want to sing some dumb song she wrote, but when she saw her best friend give her thumbs up, she closed her eyes, and imagined no on was there but her best friend.

Play Music

The music began to play, and Toni began to sing.

"That wasn't funny but she laughed so hard she almost cried
They're counting months they've been together almost 49
He's making fun of how she acted 'round the holidays
She wears a ring but they tell people that they're not engaged

They met in class for metaphysical philosophy
He tells his friends "i like her 'cause she's so much smarter than me"
They're having talks about their futures until four a.m.
And I'm happy for them (I'm happy for them)"

Cheryl watches the brunette closely from her spot in the crowd

"But I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Be that attached to the person I'm holding
Someday I'll be falling without caution
But for now I'm only, people watching

I'm only looking just to live through you vicariously
I've never really been in love, not seriously
I had a dream about a house behind a picket fence
Next time I choose to trust I hope I use some common sense

But I cut people out like tags on my clothing
I end up all alone but, I still keep hoping

I wanna feel all that love and emotion
Be that attached to the person I'm holding
Someday I'll be falling, without cation
But for now I'm only, people watching

Cut people out like tags on my clothing
I end up all alone but I still keep hoping
I won't be scared to let someone know me
Life feels so monotone but I still keep hoping
Cut people out like tags on my clothing
I end up all alone but I still keep hoping
I won't be scared to let someone know me
Life feels so monotone but I still keep hoping

I wanna feel all that live and emotion
Be that attached to the person I'm holding
Someday I'll be falling, without caution
But for now I'm only, people watching."

Toni's breath was moving fast, as the crowd clapped. She smiled at them before walking off the stage, when she found none other than Cheryl Blossom waiting for her.

Toni had always had a crush on this girl, but never had the nerve to walk up to her.

"You know..." She stated taking a step closer. "You don't have to be a person watching if you don't want to be..."

"What do you mean?" Toni asked as the girl twirled a strand of pink hair between her fingers, the butterflies in her stomach going crazy.

"I mean, meet me at Pop's at 4:30."

And with that, the redhead walked off.
