Wake Up Call (English) #Wattys2016

Change

"What's gonna change between us anyways?" I asked, he met my gaze nervously before he cleared his throat and kissed me on the forehead.

"Nothin, just like this ... This is good ..." he said quietly, looking down at me, I saw it in his eyes that it wasn't what he was planning to say.

"Come on, tell me? I've known you since I was 10 ... I can tell when you're hiding something..." I laughed, he shook his head.

"Nah ... Some other time okay?" He said, I looked at him critically. "I promise!" He laughed, I smiled and nodded to him carefully before I yawned. Marshall let out a little laugh, I met his gaze.

"What?" I asked tired.

"I was just ... This kinda reminds me of when we were teens ... The night you kissed me ..?" He raised his eyebrows at me and sent me a kissy-face in a joking way, I poked his shoulder with red cheeks. "Just me and you, chillin y'know ... Not like, EMINEM and ALEXIS CUBARD! But, Marshall and Alex. Nothin more ..."

"... Well thanks for that!" I said jokingly, Marshall cleared his throat and shook his head at me. "You speak of yourself in 3rd person a lot y'know?" He met my gaze.

"Well, yeah? In ain't Marshall when I'm on stage or rap, I'm Eminem or Slim Shady... And you call yourself a friend of mine, bitch please!" I punched him in the shoulder.

"I'm sorry I don't have the time to listen to so much of your raps!"

-"Nah, you're too busy listening to Wackstreet Boys ..?" He said challenging, I gaped at him sarcastically.

"I know more than you think ..?" I said back just as challenging.

"Reeeeeaaaally ..?" He raised his eyebrows at me smiling. "I'll spit a rhyme from one of my songs and you say the title..?"

"What's the price..?" I said quickly.

"... I'll personally walk to that door ..." He pointed at the door. "And lock it, you can guess what happens next..?" He said, I got big eyes.

"We're at my mom's HOUSE!" I exclaimed. "You should be in the dog-house, not Hector!" I laughed and rolled my eyes at him.

"Fuck you ..."

"I'm sorry, you say that in all your songs ..?! I said, he rolled his eyes before he coughed briefly and lay down in bed with a high glance.

"But put yourself in my position, just try to envision to witnessing your own mama poppin 'perscripton pills in the kitchen" He looked at me with a little smile.

"... Cleaning out my closet, duh!" I said, he nodded to me impressed.

"I murder a rhyme one word at a time, you never heard of a mind as perverted as mine! You better get rid of that knife, it ain't gonna help? What's it gonna do against the man who strangles himself?"

"Uhm ... Oh, I know that !! I've heard this one !!" I thought and hummed the beat frustrated while Marshall laughed to himself, suddenly the title popped forth in my head and I jumped up. "I'm Back!"

"Great to have you back!" He said sarcastically and coughed briefly. "I'm supposed to be the soldier, who never blows his composure, even though I have the weight of the whole world ---"

"Like Toy Soldiers! The video brought me to tears, stupid ..." I pouted against him childish.

"I buy you flowers, you throw em 'at me, I know it's sad, but it's making me happy. The more that You slap me, the more that it turns me on, cause you love me and I love you more.."

"I haven't heard that actually ..." I said, he coughed briefly and put his arms around me. "It sounds so sad ..."

"Don't worry, it ain't that sad ... It ends with: 'You tell me you hate me, you gon 'hate me more, when you find out, you can't excape me whore ..."

"Well shit, you sure know how to bring a love song over to a murder song ..."

"Who said anything about a murder ??" He asked, laughing, I smiled briefly at him.

"I'm just waiting for you to write a serial-killer rap with you as murderer ..."

"Well, I do love horror movies. Heck, why not ..."  I laughed and kissed him on the cheek.

"My little serial-killer ..." I lay down with my head on his chest.

"I'd like that better with no 'little' thank you ..." I laughed and closed my eyes.

"My big teddy-bear serial killer ..." I mumbled and yawned loudly.

"Wow, thank you so much for that One ... My reputation is defiantly destroyed if anyone hears that nickname ..."

"What reputation?" I asked cheeky as I was getting sleepier and sleepier.

"You got some serious pair of balls down there, woman ... Was the last thing I heard before I fell asleep with a smile on my face."
