:.:Skylars's POV:.:

"Sky..." Said Zane, staring at me, breaking the silence. I guess nobody expected a girl like me to catch the flowers... I shivered and shifted my eyes to Zane.

"What?" I spat.

"Skylar." Aphmau glanced at me, in her way of saying, 'Be nice'. I sighed and nodded.

Aphmau cleared her throat, "Okay! Now that that's over! Let's party!" She smiled. I managed a fake smile. I adjusted the flowers so I held them in both hands. I cleared my throat and walked toward the dance floor. I might as well have some fun...

"Hey Sky..." A male walked up to me. I shot back to the direction he was. Whoops...its just him... Zane.

"Yes...?" I managed to say through gritted teeth.

"Want to dance?" He held out his hand. I tried so hard not to say no, but I did as Aphmau informed me. Accept whatever he says.

"Sure." I angrily said. He took my hand and put a hand on my waist. This reminds me all too much. I shivered and ignored everything but the song lyrics....Just focus on the song.

-Young Volcanoes-

When Rome's in ruins
We are the lions
Free of the coliseums
In poisoned places
We are anti-venom
We're the beginning of the end

Tonight
The foxes hunt the hounds
It's all over now
Before it has begun
And we've already won

We are wild
We are like young volcanoes
We are wild
Americana exotica
Do you wanna feel a little beautiful baby? Yeah

Come on make it easy
Say I never mattered
Run it up the flagpole
We will teach you
How to make
Boys next door
Out of assholes

Tonight
The foxes hunt the hounds
It's all over now
Before it has begun
And we've already won

We are wild
We are like young volcanoes
We are wild
Americana exotica
Do you wanna feel a little beautiful baby? Yeah

We are wild
We are like young volcanoes
We are wild
Americana exotica
Do you wanna feel a little beautiful baby? Yeah

-End Of Song-

I quietly hummed along to the music to calm me. Soon another song popped into my mind. I broke away from Zane's grip and ran up to the stage.

I grabbed my guitar and the mic. Honestly I don't know what made me so inspired to perform this.

-Ready To Run-
There's a lightning in your eyes, I can't deny
Then there's me inside a sinking boat running out of time
Without you I'll never make it out alive
But I know, yes I know, we'll be alright

There's a devil in your smile, it's chasing me
And every time I turn around it's only gaining speed
There's a moment when you finally realize
There's no way you can change the rolling tide
But I know, yes I know, that I'll be fine

I took a breathe, I knew already who this was about. The "Devil In Your Smile" More like he's the devil himself...Not that I know him much. But to almost infect a child!! Just...

This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
'Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run
Wherever you are is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be young
I will never look back now I'm ready to run
I'm ready to run

I'm always...ready to run.

There's a future in my life I can't foresee
Unless, of course, I stay on course and keep you next to me

There will always be the kind that criticize
But I know, yes, I know we'll be alright

This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun
'Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run
Wherever you are is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be young
I will never look back now I'm ready to run

This time I'm ready to run (ready to run)
I'd give everything that I got for your love

This time I'm ready to run
Escape from the city and follow the sun

'Cause I wanna be yours, don't you wanna be mine?
I don't wanna get lost in the dark of the night
This time I'm ready to run (this time I'm ready to run)
Wherever you are is the place I belong
'Cause I wanna be free, and I wanna be young
I will never look back, now I'm ready to run
-End Of Song-
I looked up from my guitar, as I stretched the last note of the song. A series a applauds were heard loudly throughout the village. Aphmau climbed up to the stage.

"As beautiful as that performance is, There is another one! Skylar and Laurance will be singing a duet!" She announced with a sly smile. I mentally face palmed. I grabbed my guitar and the lyrics. I took another look at them and realized...there were two piece of paper. They were different songs...I guess I can choose from the two? Hmm, I kinda didn't like the sound of the first one... Not to be rude, but I might as well read the second one through quickly. It was a quick love song, hmm. Both love songs, but...One was not, heavy metal? I guess...Or more emo..Either or.

"The second one is your sisters song...she wrote it..." Laurance said to me. I'm guessing she gave the lyrics to him. If it's my sisters, it's gonna be easier to play on guitar.

Might as well begin singing...
