Chapter 17 ~
Taylor's pov

The music starts. The crowd begins to scream. Making it seem like this is what they've been waiting for all these years. To see us. When the truth is, this is what I've been waiting for all these years. Never did I expect for something like this to happen to four small town girls, who had an impossible dream that was too big to even come true. But somehow it did.

As the starting lyrics don't go through my ears, it's when I know that I'm in a daze. I look around to see the other girls staring at me.

"Taylor!"

"What?" I question, as the music stops.

Amber walks over to me. "You're supposed to start the song off dipshi- Fuck, I didn't cover the mic. Shit sorry- dammit!" She walks back to where she was standing and quickly apologizes for cussing so much, which the apology has more cuss words said in it, than what she originally had when she didn't cover the mic that is placed right in front of me.

Parts of the crowd are just in fits of laughter, and the part is just kind of silent.

The music starts again, and this time I make sure not to daydream. When it's just a couple of seconds before I'm supposed to sing, I walk up to my mic and begin to sing.

"I used to think one day we'd tell the story of us, how met and the sparks flew instantly. And people would say, 'They're the lucky ones.'"

Alia comes in next, "I used to know my place was the spot next to you, now I'm searching the room for an empty seat, 'cause lately I don't even know what page you're on."

Then Amber, "Oh, simple complications, miscommunications lead to fall out. So many things that I wish you knew; so many walls I can't break through!"

The chorus begins, and I can't help but relate to our song.

"Now I'm standing alone in a crowded room, and we're not speaking. And I'm dying to know is it killing you like it's killing me, yeah? I don't know what to say, since the twist of fate when it all broke down. And the story of us looks like a lot like a tradgedy now... Next chapter."

Then Amanda begins to sing the next verse, "How'd we end up this way? See me nervously pulling at my clothes trying to look busy, and you're doing your best to avoid me."

Then it's back to me again, "I'm starting to think one day I'll tell the story of us; how I was losing my mind when I saw you here. But you held your pride, like you should've held me. Oh, I'm scared to see the ending. Why are we pretending this is nothing? I'd tell I miss you, but I don't know how... I've never heard silence quite this loud!"

And the song keeps going. This is one of my all-time favorite songs, that's on our E.P. right now. It was almost two years ago when 'The Story of Us' was written.

The reason it's so relatable for me, is because one day I was just in a rut. It was the first day of spring break, and Thomas and I had just 'broken up'. And at the time, we had just decided that it was for good. We weren't going to get back together anymore. I honestly thought that it was for real. That I wouldn't have to worry about having a boyfriend for the last two years of school. Obviously that didn't happen... But anyways, I was basically in tears and went over to Mandy's house. Alia was on vacation with her family, and Amber had decided to go on a small road trip to get away from everything for a while.

When I showed up at Amanda's house, I didn't have to say anything. She opened the door, let me in, and we watched movies for a couple of hours. When she thought that I was ready to talk about it, we talked about it. I told her exactly what happened and that we were no longer together.
