Lizzy wasn't just a singer in Old Money she was also a bartender unfortunately singing doesn't pay rent and loans. Unlike her friends she wasn't as successful as them but to her money wasn't important instead following her dreams was more important.Like many other aspiring singers Lizzy and her band was waiting for their big break. As she daydreamed she looked down and looked at her wrist, each small scar looked so insignificant but little did people know it was more like a tiny battle between her and her past. She could have cut deeper but she chose not to and won. Nevertheless she was now a completely different person to what she was but then she remembered Grant and how he still loved her let alone her scars whereas her ex (Ben) felt ashamed of her scars and use to encourage her to hide them. Meanwhile Grant was taking a short break and stood outside the back alley of his shop while sipping his coffee then someone else came out.
"Hey Grant" it was Carmen.
"Hi Carmy" he replied.
"Are you alright? you look a bit down" she asked.
"Oh it's nothing" he answered.
"Did something happen between you and Lizzy?" she asked but she weirdly sounded hopeful.
"Erm no it's just that I've been staring at that guy's chest for 2 hours so I just thought I should just take a break" he said.
"Oh erm ok" she said back.
"Well I've got to go and finish off my masterpiece " he muttered.
A few hours later, Grant was getting ready to go back home, it has been a long day after hours of tattooing he was exhausted. By the time he reached his flat it was late at night and all he wanted to do was just plunge into bed. He slowly close the door so he won't wake Daniel up and crept into his bedroom afterwards he took his shirt off and lied on his bed, straightaway he heard his phone go "bing"so he picked it up, it was a text from Lizzy and it instantly made his face lit up.
'Hey babe
I was wondering how you were doing and also I've got some great news! Alistair is coming back from Sierra Leone!!! I can't wait to introduce you to him!
Love you xxxxx
So he replied:
'Hey Liz
Yeah I'm doing well sorry I haven't came out in a few days I've just been feeling a bit down plus I've spent the past few days tattooing a massive dragon on this man's chest xxxxx'
When Lizzy read the text she immediately knew Grant was thinking about his sister so she texted him.
'Ooo that sounds interesting anyways remember your tattoos Grant imagine how long they took. 'Veni,Vidi, Vici' xxxx
Grant thought about what Lizzy said and looked at his reflection.On his collarbone there was a tattoo which was purposely tattooed backwards so when he looked at his reflection he can read it which says 'Veni, Vidi, Vici' which means 'I came,I saw, I conquered' in Latin. Despite his inspirational tattoo, deep, deep inside he felt A numbing pain , this pain that he had was so cruel that is was perfect. He walked toward his wardrobe and at the top there was a dusty wooden box, he took it out and opened it. Inside there were drawings from years ago, old jewelry, a notebook, a teddy bear, pictures of Charlie and oddly... a stash of weed. He turned off his light and lit up his lamp beside his bed also he sat down by his bed, to start with he rolled a joint and lit it. Sparkly tears ran down his eyes as he smoked, he looked through pictures of Charlie, looking at them one by one.
"Oh Charlie I miss you so much " he thought.
Grant:
All my friends tell me I should move on
I'm lying in the ocean, singing your song
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh
That's how you sang it
Loving you forever, can't be wrong
Even though you're not here, won't move on
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh
That's how we played it
And there's no remedy
For memory
Your face is like a melody,
It won't leave my head
Your soul is haunting me
And telling me
That everything is fine
But I wish I was dead
(dead like you)
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you
Won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you
Won't be waiting on the other side
All my friends ask me why I stay strong
Tell 'em when you find true love it lives on
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh
That's why I stay here
And there's no remedy
For memory
Your face is like a melody,
It won't leave my head
Your soul is haunting me
And telling me
That everything is fine
But I wish I was dead
(dead like you)
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you
Won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
But there's no you,
Except in my dreams tonight,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't wanna wake up from this tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't wanna wake up from this tonight
There's no relief,
I see you in my sleep
And everybody's rushing me,
But I can feel you touching me
There's no release,
I feel you in my dreams
Telling me I'm fine
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
I'm scared that you
Won't be waiting on the other side
Every time I close my eyes
It's like a dark paradise
No one compares to you
But there's no you,
Except in my dreams tonight,
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't wanna wake up from this tonight
Oh-oh-oh-oh-hah-hah-hah-hah
I don't wanna wake up from this tonight
