It kinda hurts. Having to celebrate your birthday without your closest sibling. I figured I would have to get used to it, if I do continue with X Factor. It doesn't help that we share the same birthday either. I probably overreacted: being shallow towards my family and hanging out with my friends over them. It's whatever now. I look over to see that Y/N had called me 18 times and left 42 texts. I don't even know why I'm ignoring her after we just fought, but she should've told me she was leaving. I texted Nela, confirming that we could hang out tomorrow. I had been hanging out with him and our friends a lot lately. I just wanted to enjoy being a teenager for a while before I leave.
Y/N's POV
After my many attempts to call Dinah, I gave up. Instead of doing nothing I grabbed my electronic keyboard, my journal, my small backpack, and my sweatshirt and headed to the backyard.
10:24 p.m.
Some of the family were asleep but most were up and getting ready to get some rest. For a while I just looked at the stars. I've had an obsession with the stars for a while, but tonight's sky seemed too perfect to be taken for granted. I searched through my backpack for my Polaroid and took a picture.

It was almost perfect. There was something about this moment that felt really strong. The only way I could express it at the moment was with my favorite journal and pen.
I fell in love next to you Burning fires in this room It just fits, light and smooth Like my feet in my shoes Little one, lie with me Sew you heart to my sleeve We'll stay quiet underneath Shooting stars if it helps you sleep And hold me tight, don't let me breathe Feeling like you won't believe
It wasn't like me to write a love song, since I've never been in it. However, sometimes I would draw inspiration from the couples in my family. I guess, right now I was thinking of all the stories my father would tell me about mom.
There's a firefly loose tonight Better catch it before it burns this place down And I lie if I don't feel so right But the world looks better through your eyes
There's a firefly loose tonight Better catch it before it burns this place down And I lie if I don't feel so right But the world looks better through your eyes
Teach my skin those new tricks Warm me up with your lips Heart to heart, melt me down It's too cold in this town Close your eyes, lean on me Face to mouth, lips to cheek Feeling numb in my feet You're the one To help me get to sleep
