My Defining Moment

Chapter eleven: studio

Song in chapter to the side.

Sorry haven't updated in awhile
++++++++++++++++++++++++

It was late afternoon almost night time by the time we got to our last movie.

Just as the movie was ending Stefan came into the room on his phone.

"Hey guys-"

"Shhhh" we all said in unison.

"Whatever, I just came to say that we have to go, Ben got u studio time in like half an hour."

"Sweet I've been waiting to try that song you've been working on Stef." Dixon said jumping off the couch.

Everyone got up while Ethan paused the movie. Everyone left the room to go freshen up before we headed out. Just Stefan and I were left in the room.

"Want to get a head start in sure they'll take awhile?" He asked turning towards me.

"Sure why not."

Stefan grabbed his keys off the counter and we got into the elevator that took us down to the garage. We hopped in the car, Stefan speeding off into the streets.

It was around 5 so the sun was still out but you could feel the coolness setting in. The drive had been rather silent so far so I leaned over to turn on the radio. Bruno Mars's Just the Way You Are came blasting through the cars modified speakers.

I started singing along purposefully off key and dancing in my seat getting weird looks from the cars next to us as we stopped at a red light. Other people could probably feel the car shaking beside them. Stefan gave me an annoyed look but I could tell he was trying to hide a smile.

When the song ended I turned the radio down not likening the next song.

"Are you always so boring?" I asked.

"I'm not boring." He retorted.

"Yes you are. You never seem to have fun."

"I can be fun. My definition of fun just might be differently than yours"

"I don't believe you. You're just making excuses grumpy pants." He gave me and incredulous look.

"You're so childish."

"Whatever at least I have fun in life."

He let out a long sigh, "Fine you don't believe me then I'll just show you. After we go to the studio I'll take you with me."

"Oooo sounds so mysterious. Are you going to show me your secret dungeon where you keep criminals, or your secret lab where you do science stuff, or wait... You're not going to kill me right?"

I looked over at him with a look of sudden terror. He gave me a you've-got-to-be-shitting-me look before we both burst out laughing.

"No I won't kill you. I'll just show you my fifty shades of grey inspired play room." He said it so casually that I almost didn't catch it.

I felt a weird feeling in the pit of my stomach. It could've been attraction but that would just complicate things. I mean who wouldn't lust over him he's a god, but we're friends-I think. It just doesn't seem right.
