I had been sitting at this bench for at least an hour, watching people do a variety of dancing. Sometimes it could be interesting, just listening to music, but then it could be super boring just sitting there.

I hadn't sung yet, but I was going to soon. Kitty, Joe and Unique were singing a mash up of two One Direction songs and everyone was dancing around the room with their dates... and there were quite a lot of people standing in corners or sitting down making out, which made me feel ever sadder and jealous. 

"Marls, you are up to show the school your amazing, Taylor Swift-like voice!" Unique called, standing in front of me.

"Thanks," I smiled, standing up and walking to the stage. "By the way, you look stunning!" I shouted over the music.

"You too!" She screamed before weaving her way through the crowd to the middle. 

I smiled and stood in the centre of the stage, holding the microphone in my right hand and swaying slightly to the music.

Marley:
There I was again tonight

Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired lonely place

I spotted Travis towards to back of the room with an incredibly large smirk on his face. He had his arms crossed and to be honest, I felt weird looking at him, so I stared at Jake and Angie dancing slowly together in the middle of the crowd.

I could just see Ryder and I in their place swaying to the music as he sung along.

Walls of insincerity,
Shifting eyes and vacancy
Vanished when I saw your face

All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you

Your eyes whispered, "Have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette
Starts to make its way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks
Like passing notes in secrecy

And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you

Ryder. Every love song I sing is dedicated to Ryder. And this one explained how I felt when he first came to my locker and introduced himself. I was definetely enchanted to meet him when he came up first said hi to me.

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home

I smiled as I remembered the events of that day. That was day I was never going to regret.

I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

The lingering question kept me up
2 AM, who do you love?
I wonder 'til I'm wide awake
And now I'm pacing back and forth
Wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, "Hey,
It was enchanting to meet you,
All I know is I was enchanted to meet you."

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

This is me praying that
This was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name
Until I see you again
These are the words I held back
As I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you

This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonderstruck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you

Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
