Alex and I are laying on my bed and we're listening to Hello by Evanescence. I didn't realize we were or else I would have been singing, so I restarted it. Alex gives me a "what the fuck are you doing?" look. I just press play on my CD and start to sing along.

"Playground school bell rings again

Rain clouds come to play again

Has no one told you she's not breathing?

Hello, I'm your mind giving you someone to talk to

Hello

If I smile and don't believe

Soon I know I'll wake from this dream

Don't try to fix me, I'm not broken

Hello, I'm the lie living for you so you can hide

Don't cry

Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping

Hello, I'm still here

All that's left of yesterday"

He looks shocked.... Am I that bad?! Well. I don't care. I'll just sing My Immortal.

"I'm so tired of being here

Suppressed by all my childish fears

And if you have to leave

I wish that you would just leave

'Cause your presence still lingers here

And it won't leave me alone

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

 When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have

All of me

You used to captivate me by your resonating light

Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

Your face – it haunts my once pleasant dreams

Your voice – it chased away all the sanity in me

These wounds won't seem to heal

This pain is just too real

There's just too much that time cannot erase

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have

All of me

 I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

But though you're still with me

I've been alone all along

When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears

When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears

And I held your hand through all of these years

But you still have

All of me

 ...me, me, me."

Now I think he's going to pass out.

"You're really good!!! Holy motherfuckingshitballsmonkeyfuck!!! You're amazing!!!"

Now that shocked me.

----Alex------

Wow. I didn't think Katy could actually sing... I need to get that on video and show Evan. No, wait. I can't show Evan or even tell him that I have heard her sing... He'd be so pissed at me... Okay um. IDEA! "KATY! YOUHAVETOSINGINFRONTOFEVANANDISOICANBRAGONYOURSINGINGALLTHETIMEWITHHIM!!!!" Yeah that was hard to say in one breath. I don't think she got it so I said it slower this time. "Sigh. You have to sing in front of Evan and I so I can brag on your singing all the time with him."

"Why?"

"You're an amazing singer! I didn't think you could sing or listen to Evanescence."

"Well duh! That's how me and Evan are friends, silly!"

*FLASHBACK*

Me and Evan were about 10 years old and I was listening to Evanescence on our bus. I asked him his name and he replied shyly "E-e-Evan..." I looked down at my MP3 and said "Oh my goshbiscuits your name is in my favorite band!" From then we started to talk about our favorite bands and ages and what we wanted to be when we grew up. Ever since then, we've been friends.
