The Perfect Guy Lost

Broken Promises

Yesterday was great with Matt. I actually felt happy again just like with Ryan. I sat on my couch as I was dressed up in black jeans, combat boots, a black shirt with quotes of the guys. My hair was pulled up and a little bit of makeup to make the bags under my eyes go away. Ryan was sitting next to me texting Felix as I just watched tv.

I looked on the cabniet to see an envelope there. I grabbed it to see the two plane tickets to Wales. I turned to Ry as he looked up, knowing what I saw. "He stopped by.. And gave these to me. Because. He said he's not coming back." I looked at the tickets and sighed.

"Broken.. Just like the rest." I put them on the shelf as I heard a knock. I opened the door to see Matt standing there in his normal clothes, his hair curlier than ever. "Hey Alice!" He smiled happily. "I got.. This for you." He handed me a rose. "I can't take it right as this moment, um. Ry can you take it so it doesn't die in like a day." I chuckled. He got up and grabbed it, "I'll see you later then." Ry smiled, hugged me and went to the kitchen.

"Let's play the drums then?" Matt laughed. I nodded and shut the door, walking down the stairs. "There's a store near by." I told him, "We can walk then." He starts walking, mocking the way I walk. "Stop." I smiled as he smiles back. "Okay, so what do you know about the drums?" He leaned on me. "Nothing really.." I frowned as he stood up and folded his arms, acting to pout.

"Stop pouting you big baby." I laughed as we walked in the store. "I'm not a big baby." He starts to run around finding the area. "Hey Alice, what brings you here?" Joe asks, walking up to me. "Matt was going to show me how to play the drums." I smiled. "How much is he being paid? I could of done it for less." He scoffed. I laughed, "One, he's a friend. Two, i don't think you can beat free lessons." "I found them!!" Matt ran to me with drumsticks. "Cmon!!!" He grabbed my hand and drug me, making me fall. "Matt, calm down." I laughed as he frowned. "Sorry wonderland." He helped me up.

I brushed myself off and walked to the area he ran to. "I already knew where the drums were." I giggled as Matt frowned. "Just teach me." He handed me the drumsticks and sat me down. We started practicing for hours on end as people came and left the store.

"Okay try to play what I taught you." I nodded as I started to play, messing up here and there but still going through. Matt smiled, "Try again.." I tried again having less mess ups, but still had few. I smiled happily as Matt messed with my hair. "Keep practicing and you'll get it."

I continued practicing as Matt took out his phone. "I think your done for today." He laughed, putting his phone up. "Don't want you to strain yourself." I handed him the drumsticks. "Fine." I giggled. He sat down and started drumming away, mummbling words to a song.

I smiled as I sat near the drums and watched. His voice cracking and breaking every few words. I started to take over and started singing.

In the time of need,
Only few can see what's wrong.
Millions tend to crawl,
But only those who choose can make it through this all.
Only few can sing like lions,
'Cause we sing until we're gone.
And we've got each others backs,
Until we're back where we belong.
A woman held my shield,
And through the battles we did wrong.
A man who taught me wisdom,
Through the static we recall.
And maybe when we're gone,
Our names will echo through the stars.
Every start's got its ending,
Even when we've learned to rise above it all.

Matt smiled and started to play louder as I smiled, continuing.

These lies are leading me astray,
It's too much for me to stay.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.
I see you so please stay strong,
I'll sing you one last song and then I'm gone.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.

And we once also had a story too,
You can see that good men only come in few.
Even in our greatest moments,
We may win or we may lose.
Every song's got its rules,
You've got to learn to make it through.
Maybe one day we can choose,
How it feels to be a woman or a man.
Without rules but buried underneath,
There's a picture glued.
So when my body burns in ashes,
Only sing the truth.
Let these words strengthen all your views,
Because these words were meant for you.

These lies are leading me astray,
It's too much for me to stay.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.
I see you so please stay strong,
I'll sing you one last song and then I'm gone.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.

People started to walk over to were we were standing there and smiling, chatting and recording us.

And now I'm floating,
Right above my coffin as it closes.
I look down, I see Sai,
As she's crying on my mama's shoulder.
I look up into the sky,
As the gates of heaven open.
Something's wrong,
Is this destiny or am I going home?
What will happen to my soul?
Will I come back?
I don't know!
Will you meet me when it's over?
Let me know!
You can meet me here in heaven,
Don't you ever let me go.
This love, this hate is burning me away!

These lies are leading me astray,
It's too much for me to stay.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.
I see you so please stay strong,
I'll sing you one last song and then I'm gone.
I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.
These lies are leading me astray,
It's too much for me to stay.
I don't wanna live this destiny,

I see you so please stay strong,

I don't wanna live this destiny,
It goes on endlessly.

This love, this hate is burning me away!
This love, this hate is burning me away!

When I finished, everyone clapped and cheered as I saw Ryan standing there with a smile. Looking around to see Aron, or Deuce. I smiled with joy as Matt picked me up and spun me around. "Your better than a drummer." He laughed. "I try.." I moved a piece of hair back. Matt looking at everyone as they stood there. "You all can go back to whatever you all was doing." He calmly said as everyone started to spread out of the store, a girl running up to Matt. "Da Kurlzz!! What are you doing here?! Aren't you suppose to be on tour?" She asked happily, she was about fifteen. "We was, but we finished early and I came here to be with my friend." He looked at me.

She nodded, "That's nice. Well, I got to run. Nice to talk to you!!" Running off and left the store. "How about we go home now?" Matt asked. I nodded as we started to walk back. I guess Ryan went back home afterwards.
