We are in the same stage tonight even there is no one i can sense him smiling. He gone to my side and sits down "how long you play?" he asked and i shrugged knowing i didn't know why but i know its that im here with elvis right now, of course im a bit shock im still here.

Elizabeth and Marcus are gonna freak out but i know Elvis's manager will do something about this. "well.... Hm.... I played since i think im 4" i said honestly and keeps playing the guitar in a soft acustic.

"well damn that's amazin baby girl" he slings and i blushed by his nickname to me. I now know this is the elvis i heard about in my youth. "well i don't like to be famous or anything i just wanted to help other musicians. Thats all" i turn to look at him giving my smile. We both locked eyes as if no one is there but us, his hands are the edge of the stage we are sitting on

It is cliché but its real. Everything seems too real. "how about you play and i sing." he suggested and i smiled "what do you have in mind mr Presley?" i wondered and i heard him humming a song which i listened well till i realised its Love me tender. I smiled at him and starts playing the strings which is perfect to his cord, as if i know his songs too well. Which is in fact true but of course i won't tell.

I love how his tender voice smoothly sailed while i keep on playing didn't know on the sideline the manager is watching them. He knew that i can be more than just a sponsor by the way i played the guitar which is rare since people aren't too interested in music instruments than me, what i love about this music era is how everything is starting.

When he finished the song and show off his perfectly white teeth that grinning up to the point i can see his happiness in his eyes. "its beautiful isn't it?" i asked as elvis leans closer as our shoulders and knees touched by side to side. "how about you mama? Can you sing?" he asked and my eyes widen since no one asked me to sing in the industry that i worked on. "well yea i do but i don't think its important" i shyly replied

"come on baby mama i will listen!" he says and this time he takes the guitar by force, hear him play love me tender which I began to sing and have my own tune, i can't come the whole same with elvis. Mine is much slower and it seems like a new song instead, this made me smile through the song. I keep on singing and looking at elvis not breaking eye contact.

Once we finished the song we both still stare at one another till i snap out of it and jump down the stage giving a fake cough and clean my dress straight. "you sing well" he says huskily giving a grin and howls loudly which i sushed him "shhh!" i give a sign of him to stop. Looking around hope no one see us being this foolish.

Little did we know coronel is watching our moves. Elvis show his hand and i raise a brow at him "now what is this?" i teased him and that make elvis smirked "a dance." i couldn't help to laugh a bit and take his hand "now baby how will we dance" i asked

Elvis have his other hand around my waist while they dance in slow motion, sway in the tune that we are humming to one another. Our eyes keep on meeting yet we didn't know its the eyes that tells you everything. By means of everything its the eyes of love. We keep dancing in this slow motion till i heard a grumble

Elvis groans before finally let go since this is embarrassing for him, i can tell by his facial expression and how he rub the back of his neck. "now now. Dinner is our purpose remember?" i told him which he laugh by my words. "yes baby girl. It is indeed" we held hand in hand interlocking our fingers to one another showing our intimacy even in the slightest touch.

We arrive at his car being a gentleman he is i got in his pink cadillac. He drove in silence with me but its peaceful, comfortable and maybe indeed time its beautiful. No words can explain what they did earlier but its something, we are something.
