"Shit! I'm late" I mumbled as I ran through the spaces of people on the street

"Shit! I'm late" I mumbled as I ran through the spaces of people on the street.

"Hello?" I said as my soft spoken voice answered the phone.

"Alaina mami, where are you? The manager is starting to ask for you, you were supposed to start singing 30 minutes ago!" My best friend Pilar yelled.

"I'm on my way, I promise i'm literally down the street, im gonna get fired aren't I?" I asked as I approached her.

I hung up the phone as we made our way inside, I unfortunately made eye contact with Luke who simply pointed to the stage as an order to hurry.

I quickly gave my stuff to Pilar and took two shots she had given me as I tried not to bust my ass getting on the stage this time. I quickly fixed the mic as the music started for Sade's instrumental 'Is it a Crime' began to play. I wiped the sweat from my head as I took a deep breath looking into the crowd. My social anxiety kicked in harder than ever with the faces of strangers looking at me as they dined in.

I closed my eyes as I began to sing.

This may come, this may come as some surprise
But I miss you
I could see through all of your lies
But still I miss you
I opened my eyes. Continuing the song.
He takes her love, but it doesn't feel like mine
He tastes her kiss, her kisses are not wine, they're not mine
He takes, but surely she can't give what I'm feeling now
She takes, but surely she doesn't know how
Starting to sway, I looked in the crowd.
Is it a crime?
Is it a crime
That I still want you?
And I want you to want me too
My love is wider, wider than Victoria Lake

My love is taller, taller than the Empire State
It dives, it jumps, and it ripples like the deepest ocean
I can't give you more than that, surely, you want me back
Is it a crime?
Is it a crime
That I still want you?
And I want you to want me too, mmm-mmm
My love is wider than Victoria Lake
Taller than the Empire State
It dives, it jumps
I can't give you more than that, surely, you want me back
I grab the mic.
Is it a crime?
Is it a crime
That I still want you?
And I want you to want me too, mmm-mmm
It dives, it jumps, and it ripples like the deepest ocean
I can't give you more than that, surely, you want it back
Tell me, is it a crime?
