It was hard singing on command because I had no idea what song to sing suddenly. I didn't want Angie to think that I was having a hard time so I had to quickly start and just started singing the first song I could think of:

"I don't know if you can hear me. Or if you're even there."

Angie's eyes immediately turned golden and I got suddenly shy. I looked away while still singing but Angie immediately grabbed my chin and forced me to look at her. She didn't let go of my chin once and I didn't dare look away from her eyes for a second.

"Yes, I know I'm just an outcast. I shouldn't speak to you."

She didn't blink once during the whole song and would slowly bend closer and closer to my face. It was my first time seeing such unconditional attention. I felt like she was being hypnotized.

"I ask for nothing. I can get by."

At the end of the song I could feel Angie's breathing on my lips. Fortunately it wasn't a long song because otherwise I had no idea where she would have stopped. As I stopped singing however Angie didn't move and continued staring at my eyes.

"More."

She asked so eagerly that I couldn't say no. Therefore I started singing the second song I could think of:

"Under the glow of the very bright lights. I turn my face towards the warm night skies."

Angie's hand didn't let go of my chin and she tilted her head as if she was going to kiss me. I was so surprised that I felt goosebumps all over my body. Was she going to do it? What happened to her? She never initiated physical touch. Did this mean that much to her?

"Oh, now look at me and this opportunity. Is standing right in front of me."

I started having a hard time breathing but did my best to focus on the lyrics. Angie stopped bending closer fortunately for my heart but her other hand found its way to my waist and she pulled me against her chest.

"Under the spotlight, I'm starting my life. Big dreams becoming real tonight."

Her hands started shaking against my skin and I felt electric shocks throughout my whole body. As soon as I finished the second song, Angie pleaded:

"More."

I wasn't thinking anymore and was just doing what she told me. However after singing three songs against her body, I felt my throat close up and I needed a break. While I was calming down, Angie let go of my chin and gently caressed my cheek. Her eyes looked more tender than ever and tears appeared in her silver colored eyes.

"Angie? Are you okay?"

She sighed:

"I want to kiss you."

And just as she said that, I felt her lips touch mine. It wasn't the same passionate kiss as last time. This time it was so gentle that I thought I would melt. Angie was kissing me as if I was made of glass but at the same time she was holding me tighter and tighter. Her kiss felt salty because of her tears and I could feel her sadness through her lips. She felt so desperate that I started crying too. However, feeling my tears, Angie froze. She pulled away and looked at me with panicked white eyes:

"I am so sorry. Did I hurt you? I am so sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you. I..."

I quickly shook my head:

"I am fine. You didn't hurt me. I am crying because you are."

Angie didn't believe me and went all overprotective:

"I should have asked you first. It will never happen again.

-I didn't push you back, did I?

-Maybe you didn't dare to.
