Taylor's POV:
It's 2:30 in the morning and me and Cora have to be on the plane by 3:50. I jump out of my bed and go to Cora's room, "Bug? We have to get up. We have to go to go back home. Bug? Cora?" I say. No answer. That's weird. "Cora?" I ask again. No answer. "Taylor!" I hear Cora yell from the bathroom. I rush to the bathroom, "What's wrong?" I ask, looking at Cora who looks really pale. "I-i-i don't feel good." Cora stuttered then bursted into tears. "Hey, it's okay Bug. C'mere. Hey, shhhh. It's okay." I say in a comforting voice. Cora sobbed into my chest as I sang to her:
There I was again tonight
Forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
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?"
'Cross 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
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
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
That 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
"I'm going to call Tree and tell her that we aren't leaving today." I say as Cora begins to stop crying.
Coraline's POV:
I didn't feel good at all. Taylor understood and we just hung out together and watched tv. Taylor knocked on my door, "Hey Bug. Do you want to watch a movie?" She asked. "Yeah. I'll be down in a couple seconds." I say. "Okay sweetheart." Taylor says as she leaves. I grab my locket that my parents gave me before they died and put it on. I haven't shown Taylor yet but I know I would be upset if I didn't have it on. I open the door and go downstairs to the living room and hop on the couch next to Taylor. "What's that around your neck?" Taylor asks. Here we go. You planned this, Cora. Don't cry. "This?" I ask. Taylor nods. "Um, I've had this since I was 7." I say, starting to tear up a little. "My uh, parents gave this to me before they died." I say, looking down and trying not to cry. "Oh, Bug. I'm so sorry. They would be happy with you wearing it." Taylor said as she pulled me into a hug. "It's okay. I've been getting used to it." I say while fidgeting with the locket. "Can I go upstairs for a second?" I ask. "Yeah sweetheart." Taylor said. I go upstairs and into my room. I close the door and began to cry. I stopped myself from crying more and began to sing:
Betcha he reads
Betcha she sews
Maybe she's made me a closet of clothes
Maybe they're strict as straight as a line
Don't really care as long as they're mine
So maybe now these prayers
The last one of its kind
Won't you please come get your baby
Maybe
As I sing, Taylor knocks on my door, "Bug? Everything okay?" She asks.
Taylor's POV:
I hear Cora sing and I knock on her door, "Bug! Everything okay?" I ask. "Yep. I'll be down in a few minutes." Cora said. "Okay, Bug." I say as I go back downstairs.
