Day 3. Write a scene where your favorite song is playing in the background.
3: Kiss the Stars
"Alright, the next song is 'Kiss the Stars' requested by Damon, for his girlfriend, Layla. Enjoy!" the DJ for tonight's party, Kanani announced, her voice booming from the speakers.
The familiar catchy song's beat filled Layla's ears.
Baby baby we're on the rocket,
Venus and Mars now, can't be apart now.
Baby baby put me in your pocket,
we're on a mission, get in position.
She turned to Damon and beamed, eyes sparkling. "I can't believe you did this for me, Damon! I've heard how much it costs to bribe a DJ to play a song in one of Mike's parties, but this is Kanani we're talking about. I'm sure she probably asked for a few extra dollars . . ."
She blew out a breath, and Damon caught a whiff of the menthol candy she had eaten earlier. "Thank you,"
Damon waved it off. For him her smiling face was enough to repay for the money he gave Kanani to play a whole playlist of songs he and Layla liked to dance or sing to when they were bored.
Put the plug in the socket give me all of your power.
When you turn it on I can go for hours.
Hit the switch, push the button baby then you'll see
we can have it all baby you and me.
"Well, aren't you going to dance with me?" he grinned, holding out his hand. Layla laughed.
"We're wearing jeans and shirts. This isn't exactly the attire suited for that type of dance!" But despite this she still took his hand a heartbeat later, and started to sway with him in a waltz.
Kiss the stars tonight,
you and me oh we will,
write our name in lights.
They will see we're in love tonight, love tonight,
we're in love tonight, love tonight. love tonight,
love tonight, we're in love tonight . . .
People were starting to stare at the odd pair as they danced the waltz, adding a bit of flair here and there by incorporating a few modern dance moves. Layla and Damon couldn't give a flip to the other people, though. They could stare for all they cared, just not ruin their moment together.
The song was in the fifth verse, and Damon was starting to get tired of dancing. He restrained a growing smirk as he got an idea.
Damon removed the hand that rested atop of Layla's shoulder and playfully poked her side, causing her to squeal. A smile tugged at his lips as he started to tickle her instead of dance with her.
"Stop it! HAHAHAHA! I said stop-ieee! HAHAHAHA!"
Girls shot her dirty looks and glares and stared jealously at the couple's interaction, but both didn't pay attentiom.
Layla sank to the floor, curling up into a ball as she tried to prevent Damon from tickling her further. "I hate you," she said, but was still laughing on the floor.
Finally he stopped tickling. "I don't believe you." he said, helping her up.
Put the plug in the socket give me all of your power.
When you turn it on I can go for hours.
Hit the switch, push the button baby then you'll see
we can have it all baby you and me.
We can have it all baby you and me,
we can have it all baby you and me.
Damon stared into Layla's eyes, inching closer. Only now I realize once again that her eyes are really beautiful, he thought.
Then Layla surprised him by arching up an eyebrow suddenly. She knew his intentions and grinned evilly in her mind as she thought of a way to get him back for forcing her roll on the floor laughing by tickling her.
"Gosh, stop being so cheesy!" Layla exclaimed skittishly, pushing Damon away. She sent him a taunting stare before bolting.
"Chase me if you want to kiss me!" Damon stood for a few moments, dazed. Then as if he just realized what she said, ran after her.
He used her wild red hair as a guide as she weaved through the crowd of party-goers, but soon lost her. "Damn, where'd she go?" he stared hopelessly at the sea of dancing teenagers.
Kiss the stars tonight,
you and me oh we will,
write are name in lights.
Then he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned, and just as he did he glimpsed Layla's green eyes full of mischief, before she leaned in for a kiss.
They will see we're in love tonight, love tonight,
we're in love tonight, love tonight. love tonight,
love tonight, we're in love tonight . . .

A/N: Haha I'm pretty sure not all those events can fit in a three-minute song, but whatever xP
