My songs know what you did in the dark- Valdez

"So light 'em up up up,

light 'em up up up,

light 'em up up up,

I'm on fire!"

I sit in the big house alone, Everyone was currently at the campfire but I wasn't in the mood. I just wanted it to be me, my music and my guitar. Nobody knew that I sang, nobody knew that I played guitar, Hades, I bet they couldn't even tell me when my birthday is. I sigh, I don't understand why I'm so upset, I spent most of my life alone.

I tap on the desk I was sitting at, not realising exactly what I was tapping. I did that a lot, when I was concentrating on something, I start tapping the last thing I heard from my mother, before she died in the fire. It was in morse code. I love you. I feel a tear roll down my face. I miss her. She was the only one who understood me.

I'll be right back, Mijo." She said to me. Yeah, she didn't come back. I tried to help, but I couldn't. I couldn't. And the last thing I ever heard from here was the familiar taps.

I focus back on the song I was currently writing. Chorus done. Now, for the rest of the song. I think back to the time I was fighting in the dark, I was just walking through the woods listening to my music before something or someone had snuck up on me and started attacking. My fire lit up some of the forest I was walking in but I couldn't see my attacker. I wished that it wasn't carrying a sword or something sharp to cut out my intestines with. Suddenly, I heard gun shot. The instant I recovered from my shock, I was out of there. All the way through the process wishing how I could turn back, find whoever 'it' was and rip them to shreds for messing with Leo Valdez.

I made a wish and It came true, it didn't have a sword, or anything sharp if I technically look at it, it had a gun. A gun that he tried to shoot me with but missed, It was dark and it probably couldn't aim well from where he was.

Be careful making wishes in the dark dark,

Can't be sure when they've hit their mark.

And besides in the meantime,

I'm just dreaming of tearing you apart.

I'm in the details with the devil,

So now the world can never get me on my level.

I just got to get you out of the cage,

I'm a young lover's rage.

Gonna need a spark to ignite.

I like it, I think so myself absently. I start singing it to myself, trying to create a beat for it. I smile, I really like it. Now, all I need is a catch to join the first verse with the chorus. I hear conversations from outside as they grew louder and louder. Someone must of made a megaphone or something, it's nowhere near time for the campfire to be over.

"I watched this old film with my mom before, It was called 'I know what you did last summer' It was alright I guess."

I know what you did last summer, maybe I could change that slightly to fit in with the song. I look out the window and I could faintly see the fire from where I was seated, I watched as I saw tiny flecks of orange fire dance in the dark.

Dark. Song. I know what you did last summer.

I sing the song again and after I make a tune. I think the words over and over again till the right combination came along.

My Songs know what you did in the dark.

For what feels like hours later, I finally finish the song. The song didn't really feel like it was meant to be an acoustic but for now, this is what it was going to be. I look at the time and see it was 10:54 pm, shit. Holy mother of each and every God. I couldn't go out now, the Harpies would eat me. After getting me to cook myself of course. Yeah, you're fireproof Valdez you Idiot. I roll my eyes and crawl onto the floor, Hugging my guitar tight to me, not wanting to let go, my guitar was the last thing I had that I could truly call my own.
