"Play a song," she said suddenly causing me to jump. I rest a hand on my chest and the other firmly on the guitar I almost dropped. "Hi," I tell her and she waves, "Play!" she orders again and I only shake my head and put my guitar on the couch I sit on. "Not right now, we should start leaving! The Coldplay concert starts in 2 hours," I say placing the guitar in its case and walking to a room.
"Shall we?" Summer asks me and I smile as I try and feel for my wallet as well as the tickets. As I don't feel the paper tickets in my pockets I grow worried, that's until she laughs and I look at her as if she is crazy. "I don't have the tickets?!" I tell her and can feel the blood drain from my head, "I have them silly!" she says and pulls them from her small bag. "Yah! Don't scare me like that!" I tell her and she just sticks her tongue out and heads for the door. As I chase up to her I can't help the smile that spreads across my face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ride to the venue was the most I had laughed in such a long time. "Why did we stop hanging out?" she asks me and lowers the music blasting in the car. "I got busy and you got busy," I say and I can see her switch her attention to whats outside the window. "5minutes and we will be screaming it out!" I say to change the subject and she turns around and smiles as she turns the music up and we both start semi dancing.
~~
"I can't fuckin wait!" she says and I laugh as her cursing starts to prove how excited she is. "Remember we've been dreaming about this since we where kids," she tells me and grabs my arm causing me to tense at her touch. "Summer, I am happy it's just us," I try telling her but I get drowned out by a voice yelling out 'NEXT'. When we show them our tickets they put a band around our wrist and a venue worker leads us to the section that was in the front. "Chanyeol!!!" she screams as we stand right in front, I look at her and smile as I see her covering her mouth and her eyes well up with tears. "You better not cry," I tell her and she hugs me tightly, "Surprise," I tell her again and she just remains hugging. We talk and watch the openings and the sections to the venue get more and more full to the point where it's harder to talk to one another because of all the loud chatter/music. I look down to see Summer looking at her phone and then quickly putting it away. Although I really didn't want to ask I had too, "How's your boyfriend?" I ask her and she shuffles and shrugs. "I don't know how he is, we broke up," she says, and as I try finding the words to console her loud screaming drowns me out again.
"HOW'S IT GOING SEOUL!"
Chris shouted into his mic and the screaming grew even louder. I take one glance to Summer who is jumping as the band introduces them self and open up with the first song. I nod my head and sing along as Summer jumps and jams out hard. The happiness she exerted was so distracting that I at one point solely watched her instead of the band that we had only dreamt about seeing.
As the show went on I finally began to enjoy it more and jumping with the girl I had loved since highschool. As the concert was coming closer and closer to its end the band stopped. It was when the tone to Something Just Like This had me and Summer take a deep breath and look at one another quickly. The audience, including us go crazy and as Chris begins to sing the first lyrics I take Summer's hand into my own. She looks at me, the beat beginning to grow, I look at her and as I can feel the beat about to drop I pull her to me and kiss her. When we separate she looks at me with wide eyes but then she pulls me into her arms and I can feel her sobbing into my shirt. "I have always wanted someone like you!" she shouts as she looks at me and I smile and wipe her tears and kiss her forehead. As the beat gets settle and begins to make its climb again, I firmly hold her hand and nod my head. She moves along till the beat drops and we join the crowd in jumping and jamming out again.
By the end of the concert, we walk out hand in hand and her head rested on my shoulder. "I don't care if were not a fairy tale. I know now that you where the one I should've loved first," she tells me and I wrap my arm around her shoulders and pull her tightly. "Well hopefully I'll be the last," I say and we walk to the car in a happy silence.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I strum my guitar and tap my foot as I try and get the notes right, I had to get them right. "I want something just like this," I sing softly and grip the neck of my guitar harder. I try and calm my breathing but I just can't take it anymore, I stand up dropping my guitar and leave the room that was my studio. I drop to the floor as I finally take it in that I would never see her again.
I would never hold her, kiss her, listen to music with her, again.
I replay the voice that called my cell earlier that morning, "Chanyeol...there's been an accident," the voice said weakly and strained. "Summer...she-her plane-went down," the voice says and I could remember the sobs so clearly. My reaction in denial and cold, and it still is but now it's starting to feel real.
I now sat against the white wall and felt my body go numb as I remember how bad she wanted to hear me sing our song. I stand up and slam the door open to my studio and head for my guitar I had dropped. I pick it up and smash it again breaking it completely, I then head for my keyboard and bang it on the floor, the keys going flying. I head to my desk but I immediately stop as I see the screensaver of us. I drop to my knees and feel the tears leaving a burning feeling down my face. "There's nobody I can turn to," I say and hold my head in my hands.
