After playing in the water they went up to the beach. The sun began to go down and a glittery light came from the water. "Hm, seems like it will be a late pick-nick" Frida said with a smile. Benny smiled back and wrapped his arm around her waist and hold her tight. Björn was holding Agnetha's hand.
After drying a while they put on their clothes and sat down on the blanket. They started to eat, and talk. They talked very much! Suddenly Björn tool his guitar he had brought out of the case. "No..." Agnetha said. "What?"
"Now it will be such a typical situation. You, know like a movie situation. Sitting having pick-nick in the day's last light, and you pick up your guitar!" The others laughed. "Hm, that's actually true honey. Do you want me to put it back again?"
"No..." Agnetha said quietly and looked down a bit, and they laughed. Then she got something glittery in her blue eyes. "FRIDAAA!! YOU PROMISED TO SING FOR ME!!!" Frida laughed. "Well, okay. What then?"
"Doesn't matter. Take something you're sure at and like." They smiled against each other. "Can you play Do Not Disturb by Elvis?" Frida looked at Björn. "Of course! The guitar part is REALLY easy." He startes to play the soft and groovy intro.
"Let's take the phone off the hook. Turn the lights way down low. Baby put down that book. Tell the maid to go.
Do not disturb. Hang the sign on the door. Do not disturb. It's time to make love. And I can't wait anymore."
Agnetha and Benny, and even Björn just looked how Frida opened up her mouth and the tones and words were floating out in perfect harmony. She was really amazing! Agnetha looked like a fish with her wide open mouth.
"I'll just pull down the blind. Now come over here. I've got one thing in mind.
Let's get comfortable dear.
Do not disturb. Hang the sign on the door. Do not disturb. It's time to make love. And I can't wait anymore.
Everything's right tonight. Mmmm, it's great when we kiss. Now your arms hold me tight. Let's stay like this. Mmm...."
"This was meant for you Benny-honey... I'll follow you home later..."
The others laughed. "That was amazing!!!" Agnetha screamed and threw her against Frida and hugged her really hard. "Eh, Aggie... It would be nice to have any internal organs left..."
"Oh, sorry!" Everyone laughed, again.
"That was amazing honey" Benny said and kissed her soft lips. "It really was" Björn agreed. "When did you start to sing?"
"Thank you... I have always been singing, but I started serious when I was eleven. And I was twelve when I started in my first band."
"Wow..." Agnetha said, completely amazed of her friend. "Don't you sing in a band too?" Frida asked. "Yeah, half time you can say."
Frida smiled. "No I want you to sing."
Agnetha blushed. "Well... okay... I take something by Beatles so Björn become happy." Agnetha gave Björn a teasing smile and then a kiss. "Which song then? Just take something. It's Beatles!" They laughed, and then Björn started to play a short intro for All My Loving. Agnetha smiled, she really loved that song.
"Close your eyes and I'll kiss you. Tomorrow I'll miss you. Remember I'll always be true. And then while I'm away. I'll write home every day.
And I'll send all my loving to you.
I'll pretend that I'm kissing. The lips I am missing. And hope that my dreams will come true. And then while I'm away. I'll write home every day.
And I'll send all my loving to you.
All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving, darling I'll be true.
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you.
Tomorrow I'll miss you. Remember I'll always be true. And then while I'm away. I'll write home every day.
And I'll send all my loving to you.
All my loving I will send to you.
All my loving, darling I'll be true.
All my loving, all my loving ooh.
All my loving I will send to you."
"Wow, Agnetha! You're amazing! You're voice is so clear and light!" Frida exclaimed. "Thank you" Agnetha said with a smile. "But I think your voice is much cooler. It's deeper and softer. I would never be able to sing Elvis in that key you sang in!" Frida smiled against her and laid her hand on her shoulder. "I promise that you will, if you want."
"You both have wonderful voices" Benny said. "Yeah, really" Björn said. "Can't we all sing something together?" Agnetha asked. "Sure. But you have to know that my voice makes people panic" Benny said and laughed silent. "I'm sure it sounds okay" Frida said and took his hand. "Beatles again? Please!" Björn said and made puppy eyes. Frida, Agnetha and Benny laughed. "Okay then."
"Baby It's You" Björn said with a smile and began to sing that sha la la... intro and the others started to sing to.
"Sha la la la la la la la. Sha la la la la la la la. Sha la la la la la la la. Sha la
la la la.
It's not the way you smile that touched my heart. It's not the way you kiss that tears me apart.
Uh-oh, many, many, many nights go by. I sit alone at home and I cry over you. What can I do? Can't help myself, 'cause baby, it's you. Baby, it's you.
You should hear what they say about you, "cheat," "cheat."
They say, they say you never never never ever been true. (cheat cheat)
Uh-oh, it doesn't matter what they say.
I know I'm gonna love you any old way. What can I do, and it's true.
Don't want nobody, nobody. 'Cause baby, it's you. (sha la la la la la la)
Baby, it's you. (sha la la la la la la)..."
"God, we should start a band!" Björn exclaimed. "No!!" Frida screamed. "Like we have time for that!" Agnetha said. "Easy! I'm just kidding..."
