  Sittin' on my own, Chewin' on a bone, A thousand million miles from home when something hit me, Somewhere right between the eyes 

I heard this from down the hall in Liam's dressing room at the venue, it was a song that I hadn't heard before but Noel was singing it and it caught my ear. Liam was passed out on the couch so I decided to follow the music and see where Noel was. 

  Sleepin' on a plane You know you can't complain, You took your last chance once again,I landed stranded,Hardly even knew your name  

He was still singing, I stood outside the door watching him strum his guitar and be so into the song and it really was a beautiful song. I crept in quietly and sat in a chair that was in the corner, Noel had is back turned toward the door so he didn't know I was in there.

  I want to talk tonight, Until the mornin' light, 'Bout how you saved my life, You and me see how we are, You and me see how we are  

Then he stopped there and started writing stuff down, obviously this was a new song he was in the process of writing. I wanted to make myself known to him but how without startling him? "That's a beautiful song Noel" I call out from the chair, Noel's head darts toward me he then gives me his death glare "What do you want?" He says snarkly "I heard you singing from down the hall so I came in to watch" I reply getting up from my chair to sit beside him, he didn't tell me to go but I could tell he was upset with me still. "Who's this about?" I ask picking up the note pad reading the messy handwriting "Who do you think it's about?" Noel says grabbing it out of my hands "I dunno that's why I'm asking" I say. He didn't say anything after that, should I know who it's about? Am I just being totally oblivious? Noel was obviously not in the mood to chat with me so I got up and began to walk away "Hey wait a sec" He calls and I turn toward him "What do you dream about Ivy?" Noel says, I didn't want to give him my real answer which was him and his brother, I always dreamt of him and Liam whether we were all together or just them as individuals but I always dreamt of them. So, I just came up with a bullshit answer that he'd get pissed at me for but I said it anyway; "Strawberry Lemonade" .
