The Killers - Part 2

chapter 24

Rogers pov –

‘You're out on the streets looking good, And baby deep down in your heart I guess you know that it ain't right, Never, never, never, never, never, never hear me when I cry at night, Babe, and I cry all the time! But each time I tell myself that I, well I can't stand the pain, But when you hold me in your arms, I'll sing it once again.’ Janis sung through the speakers as we swayed together in each others arms, hers around my neck and mine around her waist, her head leaning against my shoulder as we listened to piece of my heart play on, echoing through the speakers around the room. “i love you roger” She whispered into my ear as we spun around on the spot slowly, muffled by the loud voice of Janis’ overtaking the whole room. Everyone was screaming and shouting trying to get louder than the music, i grabbed one of her hands, causing us to let go of eachother and spun her under my arm. “i love you more” I told her, spinning her back in towards me, smiling crazily at her, i couldn’t contain how happy i was, just me and her, dancing and not a damn in the world to disturb our bubble, everyone dancing around us, minding their own business. “impossible” She said, grabbing my hands and interlocking her own fingers carfully between my own. Looking at our hands closely making sure everything was perfect, admiring our two hands being together. I twisted her around, so i was hugging her from behind still having a hold of her hands and swaying to the beat of the music.

 “how is that impossible?” I whispered into her ear before kissing her on the cheek. As i pulled back i looked over towards Natalie, she was practically glaring at me. She has been staring at me from time to time for the past two hours, what did she think i was gonna do, kill kyrie or something. Knowing her she probably does, but for all she knows i pulled out of it when she left, making it as if i didnt want to be alone. Truth is, i persuaded her to leave in the first place, it was no place for someone like her, young and her life only just beginning, she should at least have the chance to life her life to the full, me on the other hand i had nothing to live for until now. “because....” She said, unravelling herself from my arms, turning around to face me, her hand brushing against the side of my face. I played with a lock of her hair, it was beautiful, especially the way she done it today, but its amazing all the time compared to my kitchen scissor hair cut which is horrible, i much prefer it longer myself and so does she, its a shame i had to cut it. “because... wh-“ I began to say but she reluctantly put her finger up to my lips, telling me to shush my mouth and stop talking. The music began to fade, janis’s voice along with it, it was nearly time for a change of song, i was staring into her vivid green eyes, unable to finish my sentence because of her finger in my way.

She slowly moved her finger away from my lips, giving me the ability to talk and finish my sentence. I quickly inhaled, getting ready to re-start my sentence, and just as i was about to speak she placed the soft flesh of her lips against mine, catching me by surprise. “i love you most... thats why” She told me, a new song beginning to play. A violin began filling the room, replacing piece of my heart, changing the environments emotional intake, somewhat making it more enthusiastic. I held her face in the palms of my hands as I stared down into her magnificent eyes, the music beat becoming more uplifting, it was only dexy midnight runners, nothing fancy. I slowly brang my face down to hers, closing my eyes about to kiss her, my heart racing like a horse chasing after that fake rabbit in the races. “Kyrie.... Kyrie.... Guess what... Guess what!” I heard someone yelling, breaking me out of my trance and pulling her soft delicate face out of my hands. She was facing away from me, talking to Freddie who had just caught her attention over who knows what reason. The thundering of a bass filling the room along, and it isn’t long that it is reaccompanied with the violin now infusing the room “oh shit.... Holy Shit!... OH...! MY...! GOSH!” Kyrie exclaimed, only now realising what the song was. She began to jump up and down with excitement, no longer being able to contain it, i could hear someone laughing, looking around i noticed Tamarah in fits of laughter.
