Mum had me up by six.
Much to my disaproval.
I hate getting up early. I am a morning person but sometimes i actually hate getting up at ridiculous O'clock in the morning.
By six o'clock I was ready to go.
Hmmm... Two hours.
That is two hours i could have spent doing something better. Ie: Sleeping!
Ma's argument is that if we slept in then it would have been a rush.
Instead i am packed and ready to be shipped out to sea.
When eight o'clock came around I found myself very nervous.
I sat on the corner and got my guitar out.
It is the only way i can stay calm.
I started strumming Take On Me by Aha.
Then I started to sing.
TALKING AWAY
I DON'T KNOW WHAT
I'M TO SAY
BUT I'LL SAY IT ANYWAY
TODAY ISN'T MY DAY TO FIND YOU
SHYING AWAY
I'LL BE COMING FOR YOUR LOVE OKAY.
TAKE ON ME
TAKE ME ON
I'LL BE GONE
IN A DAY OR TWO.
SO NEEDLESS TO SAY
OF ODDS AND ENDS
BUT I'LL BE STUMBLING AWAY
SLOWLY LEARNING LIFE IS OK.
SAY AFTER ME
ITS NO BETTER TO BE SAFE THAN SORRY
TAKE ON ME
TAKE ME ON.
I'LL BE GONE
IN A DAY OR TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.
THINGS THAT YOU SAY
IS IT LIFE OR
JUST TO PLAY MY WORRIES AWAY
YOU'RE ALL THE THINGS IVE GOT TO REMEMBER.
SHYING AWAY.
I'LL BE COMING FOR YOU ANYWAY.
TAKE ON ME
TAKE ME ON
I'LL BE GONE
IN A DAY OR TWWWWWOOOOO
IN A DAY OR TWOOOOOOOO!" I sang.
"That was real good," Andy said.
"Remind me. I have to make ye sing that song if ye make it through to the Lives," Another male voice said.
I turned.
Danny.
He grinned.
"So. Can I have a Charlie hug?" Danny asked.
I grinned.
"Sure," I said and ran forward to give him a hug.
"Right then. Let us get young Charlie to the battle ring practice room," Danny said.
Andy carried some of my bags. Then turned around and brought some extra too.
"Whose are those?" i asked.
"Mine," Andy said.
"Why?" I asked.
"Because i didnt feel comfortable with you staying in a hotel on your own. So i'm staying with ye. Ever so sorry for any inconvience caused!" Andy said and made me laugh.
Danny got into the taxi.
I turned back to Ma.
"You know that thing that is in the bottom of yiz bag. Its called a phone. Ue it," Ma said.
I smiled and nodded.
"And i shall be voting for ye. I shall be rooting ye on!" Ma said.
I gave Ma a hug.
"Thanks Ma," I said.
I oulled out of the embrace and slid into the car in the middle of Danny and Andy.
An early emotional start to my day. Yeahh. Just how i like it.
A/N - Right I am sorry it is short but i am mega tired. However i promised a updatw so ye got one. There ye go. Hope this pleases.
