"so" Ryan spoke, trying to get a conversation flowing, he was sandwiched in between Audrey and Ava. Audrey ignoring the group and playing on her phone and Ava being too shy to spark a conversation.
The table layout was completely fucked, only because Elijah and Ophelia had somehow ended up next to eachother.
"i've seen your music Fia" He decided on, looking at the girl from across the table the girl being caught completely surprised.
"oh yeah" She replied "it's nothing special"
Elijah scoffed from beside her, causing the girl to stare at him confused, as well as Ryan who sat in disbelief.
"are you for real? nothing special? It's amazing! give yourself credit!" Ryan spoke in disbelief, he sat in his chair, throwing his hands around "i bloody love this is what it feels like"
The brunette girl chuckled with a huge smile on her face.
She was proud of her music, but she didn't think it was amazing, just something she could use to put all her feelings in to.
She had so many songs, unreleased and resting in a diary safe at home. It was something she wanted to show the world, but was far too scared to actually record.
Also the fact some of the lyrics were raw, and also sad. Some people didn't like sad music.
"are we talking both Fia's music?" Robert inputted from beside Lou, leaving the conversation he was in.
"yes" Ryan nodded vigorously, placing his glass down as if it would help him concentrate in the conversation more.
"i love her music, im so proud" Lou spoke, smiling to the group "i think she's the best lyric writer I know" With a glare towards Elijah, who just rolled his eyes at the girl.
There was a sudden change when Lou find out Elijah was the one who broke the girls heart into pieces, and being the analyser she was, she has listened to the girls lyrics, going back when she heard a line that seemed almost gut wrenching.
She was not going to give Elijah the benefit of the doubt.
"oi!" Josh argued "is Inhaler not a good lyrical band?"
With a few shaking heads the boys all dropped their mouths in shock. Lou and Ophelia as well as Audrey.
Audrey wasn't as offensive, they knew what tk expect from the girl and it was received. But watching Lou and Ophelia disagree was confusing,
"wait why?" Bobby asked, a saddened look on his face.
"it's just not U2" Ophelia shrugged nonchalantly, picking up her half drunk glass from the table "they win it for me"
"i have to agree, my dad is a lyrical genius" Elijah spoke up for the first time in a while, receiving a glare from Ophelia as he spoke "and John aswell, that man wrote my favourite one"
"did you just change your answer because of Fia's glare?" Rob question with a smirk, staring between the two "its okay to be scared of the girl"
"wait wait wait" Lou slurred, talking to the group. "you all convinced Ophelia, to convince Bono, to buy her a 4k guitar?"
"it was star shaped" Josh nodded, remembering the day like it was yesterday. It was after her parents told her no, and the girl stormed back to the games room where everyone sat. He has argued saying she wouldn't play it, so in an accidental game of truth and dare, she was over at Elijah's house talking g sight a purple star guitar that she would use but her Dad say no.
Let's say he was easily influenced, saying she needed a guitar, and how everyone needed a guitar. Also buying Josh a green one in the process.
"sorry but i would have like, how?" The blonde spoke in disbelief.
"i want bono to be my dad!" Ava spoke up, the fine as awfully quiet, being stuck in the end of the table next to Audrey meant she was left out of the conversation.
"no you don't" Ophelia spoke up, she was drunk, very drunk. "he produces devil children!"
Elijah turned to her, his mouth hung open
"i thought you lived my sisters?"
"oh i do" She chuckled pushing a strand of hair behind her ear "you and your brother get on my last nerve though" She smirked at him before turning straight to face Lou once again.
"right then"
The group stared at the boy, watching as he took glances at the girl beside him. Watching at every small interaction she did.
"can i be really cheeky and ask a question?" Lou asked, to nobody in particular, them all looking at her as she positioned herself in Josh's side
"you just did"
"fuck off rob, i'm asking it anyways " She cleared her throat looking directly at Elijah and Ophelia. "what was the actual reason you two broke up? and who broke up with who?"
The two looked at each other for a moment, communicating with their eyes, Elijah's had turned serious whilst Ophelia looked at him with pleading eyes. Elijah turned to face the group opening his mouth, but he quickly stopped in his actions when Ophelia grabbed his hand to stop him.
With the contact, he immediately closed his light and turned to the girl, where the girl signalled with her head to go outside, his easily complying. He got out of his chair, slightly tumbling as he rushed up, the girl filling after him.
It was insanely confusing for the group as nothing was said, not one noise was made, and to them it was if they had both just got up.
"They both still want each other i'm telling you now" Robert spoke as the two disappeared out the pub doors.
