As kids Jay and Evie would hang out all the time, they hoped it would stay like that forever.

But two months ago after weeks and weeks of talking/arguing they separated. Yes, they were dating.  But they ended things.

Jay and Evie haven't been the same. Jay wanted to get back with Evie. Evie was trying to ignore Jay because she knew things wouldn't work out between them. They haven't talked a lot lately and it's effect everyone's friendship.

One day Jay found Evie in the garden. He walked up to her "Evie we need to talk" said Jay "we really don't" said Evie and she started to walk off, Jay grabbed her arm

"Please Evie." Said Jay "goodbye Jay" said Evie and she walked off.
The
Sometimes I can't remember
If these ashes came from flames
And if we relight these embers
Will they just burn out again?
We can try, we should try
Jay thought.

He wanted to try again but Evie didn't, she knew it would start by them getting ice cream together, and listening to music, and traveling the galaxy's but it only end in slammed doors, heartbreak and loneliness.
Like last time

The next day Jay tried again. And once again he failed.

Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum

Like a drum
Like a drum

He tried every chance he got. In class. After school. On the weekends. After tourney. Before tourney. Durning free periods. But Evie never listened.

Just 'cause I, I can't measure and I can't hold it in my hands
Doesn't mean, doesn't mean that I should just give up on chance
We can try, we should try

Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum

Like a drum
Like a drum

One day he left a note in Evie's locker, when she headed to her locker the noted fell out. She picked it up. She read the note and knew it was from Jay from the handwriting.

We're gonna beat again
I can already hear the sound
And we're gonna beat again
Yes, so loud that it shakes the ground

Ain't gonna miss a beat

Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum

Someday I know we're gonna feel again
Just like we did when we were younger
Someday I know we're gonna beat again
Gonna beat again like a drum

So please Evie, give us one last chance.

Evie sighed, she loved Jay but she was scared that if she got back with him then they would be happy then get in a stupid fight and then break up, it would go in circle.

She closed her lock and turned around to see Jay "So?' He questioned "if I give us one last try will you promise to never sneak up in me again?" Asked Evie, Jay nodded "fine, one last try" said Evie.

The last past week Evie and Jay have fallen in more love then ever thought possible. They did truly beat again.
