Ashley POV
This would probably be the lamest party I've ever seen. So many cameras and press. It's sad, but Jayden made it the best party I've ever been to. It was all so absorbing. He hasn't taken his eyes off me not once tonight. It's like if he looks away then he's gonna miss something. It makes me feel so important. I can't stop smiling.
Ashley stop now you look bonkers. I tried, I tried not smiling, didn't succeed.

"Are you ready for your last surprise hazel.?" Jayden said staring like he's looking right through me.

This feeling, I don't know what it is but I love it. I'm feeling incredible. Only one other person gave me this feeling.

"What is it.?" I screamed over the music. Out of breath from all the dancing. The music paused. I look up to see Jay's dad on the stage.

"Thanks everyone for coming tonight but before you leave I'd like for Ms Ashley to come up here to sing us a song." My heart literally stopped. Ohh my gosh, Ohh my gosh, this is really happening. I'm feeling really overwhelmed right now with happiness, I can't believe any of it.

I look over at Jayden's face. "You'll be incredible" he mouthed towards me and winked. I walked on stage, grabbed the mic and started singing one of my songs from my book.

"I remember when, I use to count on everyone that just made life so fun and I remember when, everything you said was true no I never had a clue but now Ohh now. I'm sitting on the bathroom floor wishing that someone would come through that door to save me from my miseries because cuts only go so deep..." I sung with so much passion. It's really the best feeling you could have, performing, knowing you could save someone's life or someone could save yours with the lyrics.

I tried looking around the room but my eyes kept landing on jayden. Maybe he's the change and happiness that I've been asking God for, Just maybe. The crowd roared with screaming and clapping. Tears begin to fall. They'd be so proud of me right now.

Walking off the stage i tried to get my breathing under control.

"You don't understand how much that meant to me." I said to jayden abstaining from making a fool of myself. "Thank you for everything that you've done for me today jay."I pulled him into the tightest hug.

"That's what I'm here for." He whispered glazing in my eyes. "How about one more dance."

"Of course!"

" play one more song before you close up!"

"You got it jayden." I heard his dad yell, But we were dancing before the music started playing. My head was on his chest while my arms were wrapped around him. He placed his hands on my waist. We swayed for a while. As soon as the music came on my entire mood just changed, I sunk my head into his chest and just started to cry. I need to let go.

When your legs don't work like they use to before, and I can't sweep you off of your feet will your mouth still remember the taste of my love
