Hey guys! WiseGirlsSista here! Welcome (if you didn't read the table of contents) to, Shooting Star! This is our first chapter! Let's do this!
I was reading An Ember In The Ashes on my bed, when I got a text. I felt giddy inside. It was Luke! My heart was beating fast, and I smiled wide.
Luke: Hey Annabeth! I'm at the door
Me: Ok, coming!
My heart fluttered and I put on a nice top and Jean shorts. I needed to look good for Luke. I ran downstairs and opened the door. "Luke!" I looked to his ice blue eyes and he wasn't smiling, he wasn't really smiling around me a lot anymore. I reached for his hands but he pulled away. Hurt consumed my face. "Annabeth, we need to talk" I nodded and we sat on the couch. "Annabeth, I'm breaking up with you." Tears swirled in my eyes. "Why" I asked quietly. In the past he would have hugged her. He would have touched a hand to her cheek and whispered comforting words, and now...that past warmth is gone, and now that I think about it it's been gone for awhile now. "Well, you're boring and you hurt my rep. Not to mention Kelli Barton is way better for my rep than you" anger flashed across my face. He cheated on me. "Get out" my voice was ice cold. Surprise took over his features. "Wow Chase, you're getting feisty" he smirked and my face contorted into pure disgust. "I SAID GET OUTBOF MY HOUSE LUKE CASTELLAN" I yelled and grabbed his hair and locked the door. I slid to the ground as my heart shattered slowly. I sobbed into my knees. He cheated on me. HE FUCKING CHEATED ON ME.
I walked in my room. I tilted my head at my old piano, I learned how to play years ago, and I loved it. My small smile evaporated. Luke bought me it for my birthday. I cried again. Will I ever be the same? I closed my eyes remembering the first time I realized I loved him, at least...I think it was love. We were best friends then lovers. Music flowed through my mind. It was in eighth grade, summer went away. I started to play the notes on my piano and wrote down the sheet music. Now this may sound weird, but for some reason the lyrics were in my head already. I started to sing.
(the song on top is the one she's writing just note that I'm gonna change some lyrics)
"Summer went away, still the yearning stays
I play it cool like the rest of them
I wait patiently, he's gonna notice me
It's okay we're the best of friends
Anyway"
I remembered the days like they were yesterday. Before we started to date, before we loved each other, before he broke up, and before he was a traitor. This next part came to me instantly, I still Regis voice and smell. I still remember my thoughts on where I live, LA.
"I hear it in your voice, you're smoking with your boys
I touch my phone as if it's your face
I didn't choose this town, I dream of getting out.
There's just one who could make me stay
All my days"
The chorus came even easier, as if it were apart of me all my life. The last line came more from the present.
"From sprinkler splashes, to fire place ashes
I waited ages to see you there
I search the party of better bodies
Just to learn that you never cared"
I smiled at the next two lines, he is now, and the way his personality is, he'll always be, and he always was.
"Your on your own kid
You always have been"
I moved into the second verse. My fingers moved automatically, like they knew exactly what they should do, like they were meant to do it. It was their purpose.
"I see the great escape, so long Daisy Mae
I picked the petals, he loves me not
Something different bloomed, writing in my room
I'll play my songs in the parking lot
I'll run away"
I smiled but still felt cold inside. Is that possible? To be happy, but feel so dark inside? My blonde curls bounced as I wrote down the notes for my past lyrics. Then I continue.
"From sprinkler splashes to fire place ashes
I called a taxi to take you there
I searched the party of better bodies
just to know that my dreams aren't rare
Your on your own kid
You always have been"
I moved into the next verse with more heat. I still remember my diet, I starved myself, for Luke.
"From sprinkler splashes to fireplace ashes
I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this
I hosted parties and starved my body
Like I'd be saved by a perfect kiss
The jokes weren't funny, I took the money
My friends from home don't know what to say
I looked around in a blood-soaked gown
And I saw something they can't take away"
I wrote down that then started to go into the bridge I closed my eyes and my hands moved.
"Cause there were pages turned with the bridges burned
Everything you lose is a step you take
So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it
You've got no reason to be afraid"
The outro came faster. I smiled as my stomach twisted, I always loved to write music.
"You're on your own, kid (ah)
Yeah, you can face this (ah)
You're on your own, kid
You always have been"
I was panting by the time I finished. Looked at my sheet music and smiled. It's so pretty. I hugged it to my body and thought. Maybe I'll post it. Yep! That's what I want! Eager to do this, I grabbed my phone and recorded myself singing again. I mean my voice wasn't the best, but it's good enough. (Just fyi her voice is beautiful in this) my hand hovered over the post button. I looked around at the room. Who knows, maybe I'm gonna become famous and leave this place. I never wanted to be here I want to be in New York. But no one cares, well now...people will care, maybe. I clicked the button and it posted. OH MY GODS I POSTED ON YOUTUBE!
Hope ya like it!!!! Yes, now Annie is the new TAY TAY! Lol. Hope you enjoyed my story, and many more crappies to come! I'm excited! Thanks for reading!
