SEPTEMBER 7TH 1979
LUCY'S POV

I was stunned. Shocked. I didn't know what to do. They pulled away from each other, and jumped up from the couch. I shut the door. The lady smoothed out her skirt. "Uh hi... I'm April, John's girlfriend" she stuck her hand out for me too shake.

I didn't shake her hand. Just stared at her. I grabbed Vance's hand and walked upstairs. Once we got to my room I immediately shut the door and locked it. "I did not want to see that"

I sat on my bed, a look of horror was painted on my face, "wanna listen to some music?" Vance asked as he began to look through my records. "Yeah sure I guess" I mumbled out. "Be right back" was all he said before climbing out my window.

A few moments later Vance returned. He revealed a Fleetwood Mac, Dreams record. "I was looking at some records and saw this. It reminds me of you... So I stole it" he said with a little smirk on his face and he put it in the player.

"C'mon dance with me" he said as he stuck his hand out to me. I let out a long sigh. Did I want to do this? We almost kissed last time. I feel like we're going wayyyy to fast. But it's just one kiss right? It's not gonna effect anything... Right?

I took his hand.

Now here you go again, you say you want your freedom
Well, who am I to keep you down?

I wanted to say something. 'Maybe I don't want to kiss him' But there's a part of me that kinda does. 'God this is confusing' I decided to keep my mouth shut. He spun me out, then reeled me back in.

But listen carefully to the sound of your loneliness
Like a heartbeat, drives you mad

We swayed to the music. I had my arms rapped around his neck, with my head resting on his shoulder. His hands were placed delicately on both of my hips. Given that we were both drenched from the rain, we still kept each other warm.

And what you had
And what you lost
Oh, thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing

The music mixed well with the light rain hitting the window. Making a calm and quiet environment. Relaxing. Soothing. Peaceful.

You'll know

It was even romantic. He slowly spun me in place. This time one of my hands rested on his shoulder, while the other was on the back of his neck. His left hand was on my hip, while his right hand was on my upper back.

it's only me who wants to wrap around your dreams, and
Have you any dreams you'd like to sell, dreams of loneliness?

I stared into his eyes. He stared into mine. There was so much tension and electricity between us, it was surreal. 'god his eyes are so beautiful ' I don't know what happened to me. Why was I falling for him?

Thunder only happens when it's raining
Players only love you when they're playing
Women, they will come and they will go

I could feel a smile growing on me. I could see a faint smile on Vance too. I don't know what was happening. But I don't know if I like it. It's as if my heart was thinking for me instead of my brain.

Players only love you when they're playing

He spun me again, but this time we grew closer, our chests were touching.

When the rain washes you clean, you'll know

His eyes were going back and forth from my lips to my eyes. ' oh my godd'

You'll know
You will know

'fuck it' I leaned in, so did he.

Oh-oh-oh, you'll know

Our lips met. We kissed. His arms wrap around me, pulling me in closer. My arms wrap around his neck, pulling him down so I didn't have to stand on my tippy toes, given that I'm 5'6.5 and he's 5'8.

I feel him start to pull away. So I pulled away too. I immediately read his expression. Confused. 'FUCK, dammit why did I kiss him? ' I start to apologize. "Oh my god I'm so sorry I shouldn't have done that.. i-i don't know why.." I sighed.

" No I, it was me I just, I need to go.. " he made up an excuse. He opened the window and left.

I flopped onto my bed and screamed into my pillow. I never moved from my position. I stayed there, the whole day.
