Adam dropped off Alice first because she was nearer.
"Bye guys!" Alice giggled and gave me a wink. God knows how badly she'll tease me after that show."Oh, by the way Mandy. The party's tomorrow." she added before closing the door.
Oh, that's right... The birthday party.
Yay! Extra cash!
Adam drove off to the cafe.
"What party?" he asked.
"Oh, it's just a birthday party." I looked out the window. Come to think of it, I've never even told him that I perform and sing at bars and events.
"Whose?" he asked some more, as if trying to squeeze out some more information out of me, since he noticed that I was avoiding the topic.
"Some kid's." I answered nonchalantly.
"Some kid's?" he furrowed his eyebrows and smiled like he couldn't believe that I was going to some kid's birthday party.
I gave in. I had to tell him at some point.
"I'll just be performing a song at the party." I answered, keeping my gaze at the passing trees out the window.
"Wait. You never told me you could sing?" he asked in disbelief.
Well, there's still a lot of stuff you don't know about me, Adam.
"Haven't I?" I pretended to be in shock and looked at him with a gasp.
He chuckled. "Well, now you're gonna have to sing for me."
"No way." I shook my head in total disagreement.
" C'mon." he pleaded.
"No." I scoffed.
"Please." he pleaded.
Then he stopped the car and parked it by the side.
Wait. This ain't the cafe.
"Well, I'm not moving this car until you sing." he leaned his elbow on the steering wheel and gave me a daring look.
"Adam." I rolled my eyes.
"Well?" he gave me a devious grin.
Ugh. Curse you and your tactics.
"Fine." I gave in.
"Yay!" he used that cute expression again.
Then I started to sing "Skyscraper by Demi Lovato"
Skies are crying, I am watching
Catching tear drops in my hands
Only silence as it's ending
Like we never had a chance
Do you have to make me feel like
There's nothing left of me?
You can take everything I have
You can break everything I am
Like I'm made of glass
Like I'm made of paper
Go on and try to tear me down
I will be rising from the ground
Like a skyscraper
Like a skyscraper
Once I finished, Adam gave me a shocked look, his eyes wide and his mouth open.
"Well..." he looked at his side and shook his head in disbelief. "I think you just stole my job."
I just laughed shyly.
"That was great! How come I never heard you like that before?" he narrowed his eyebrows and gave a wide smile.
"Well now you just did." I grinned.
"Wow. You so need to meet my manager." he gave a serious and determined look.
I laughed. "I'm not stealing your job, Adam."
"Maybe not mine. But he'll find you an agent once he hears that voice of yours." he looked so determined that it made me laugh.
"I'll take note of that." I smiled.
Then he just looked into my eyes, smiling like he was thinking of something.
"I love you." he smiled and leaned closer to give me a short kiss.
I just smiled. "I love you too."
