I gulp as I try to comprehend what had happened in the past twenty four hours. I pull my blanket further up and snuggle into my purple sheets and my big blue hoodie as a tub of ice cream sits on my night stand and my laptop, hot, on my knees. I scroll my twitter seeing notifications of my breakup which had exploded overnight courtesy of my main man Zayn who had sent out the tweet
@erica_plays_piano, Sorry about your breakup. @Louis_Tomlinson is a twit for letting someone like you go
Thanks Zayn. Now we can all share my pain! Not. Most Directioners didn't seem fazed by our breakup though they were upset, claiming "I shipped Louica so much!!!!!!! #Louicaforever" Hate to break it to you sister but "Louica ain't foreves."
I stretched out my toes as my dad walked in grumbling and scratching his head.
"Erica you better get started on your homework," he said. I glanced up and shot him a confused look.
"But I already did my homework for Mrs. Phan," I replied returning to my twitter feed. My father sighed running his hand through his dark hair that was tinted grey.
"Honey, now that you aren't on tour with One Direction you have to return to school. It's your final year and you need to be thinking about university next year." I dropped my spoon surprised into my lap.
"I have to go BACK TO SCHOOL?" I asked sitting up. My dad nodded. "You do realize everyone there is going to hate me!" I yelled. My dad shrugged.
"You start tomorrow love. Might want to get some stuff done." He smiled leaving my room. I sigh as my back hit the pillows. I knew everyone there wasn't a big fan of me dating Louis or um that I was dating Louis. On the bright side, I would get to see Kay and Bella. Kennedy had moved a few years ago to Brighton. I didn't know how strong my friendship would be with Kay and Bella though considering I hadn't talked to them in forever. Kay and Niall had dated for a brief amount of time until they had decided to become just "friends" as the claim. Bella and Liam had hit in off but never established a relationship and Liam had gotten with dancer Danielle Peazer.
I put my pencil down on piano as I walk over towards my dance. I hadn't played the piano in a while and a strange urge takes over me to play a song.
Come up to meet you, tell you I'm sorry
You don't know how lovely you are
I had to find you, tell you I need you
Tell you I'll set you apart
Tell me your secrets and ask me your questions
Oh let's go back to the start
Running in circles, coming in tails
Heads on a science apart
Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh, take me back to the start.
I sighed pushing my hair behind my ear. A knock on my door frame startles me as I sharply turn around. Zayn stands there with his hands in his black jean pockets, his duffel bag draped over his shoulder, and wearing his signature smirk.
"Coldplay, eh?" he asks walking over and tossing his bag on my bed.
"Scoot over," he chuckles as I make room for him on my piano bench. His fingers skim over the keys as he sings the rest of the song.
I was just guessing at numbers and figures
Pulling your puzzles apart
Questions of science, science and progress
Do not speak as loud as my heart
Tell me you love me, come back and haunt me
Oh and I rush to the start
Running in circles, chasing our tails
Coming back as we are
Nobody said it was easy
Oh it's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be so hard
I'm going back to the start
Our voices echo through the room as Zayn hits the last chord. He glances over at me sending me a smile which I return.
"Thanks for coming to Doncaster," I grin leaning my head on his broad shoulder, him resting his head on top of mine.
"I would do anything for you," he whispers wrapping his arm around my waist and pulling me into his broad chest. I feel tears prick in my eyes as he starts humming another Coldplay song, Yellow.
I pull his arms from around my waist and walk over to my speakers. My fingers dance across my screen until I hit the song I had been looking for, the familiar notes ringing through air.
Look at the stars,
Look how they shine for you,
And everything you do,
Yeah, they were all yellow.
Zayn stands up and grabs my hand leading me to the middle of my room. The sun's diming light shines through my blinds casting a beautiful yellow orange glow on my floor and other objects that lay in the way. Zayn starts singing the chorus as we sway back and forth
Your skin,
Oh yeah your skin and bones,
Turn into
Something beautiful,
You know,
You know I love you so,
You know I love you so.
And as those last words escape his lips, I find my own capturing his in a kiss as the air is full music and love.
