"the world is ours
but for a flash
and you are not allowed to be anybody else
control what you can
confront what you can't
and always remember how lucky you are to have yourself"

brooklyn must've sensed willow gaping at him, because he stopped singing and turned to look at willow.

"was i bad?" he asked, looking uncomfortable as he rubbed the back of his neck.

willow felt her eyes widen at his question and shook her head frantically.

"no, no, you were great!" she exclaimed.

he blushed and looked down. willow was caught up in watching how his dimples kept appearing and disappearing on the right side of his face. she wondered how deep it would go if she stuck her finger into it, but decided against the action.

the calming silence was again interrupted, this time from a beep coming from willow's phone. willow searched for the mobile in her schoolbag, and read the text. it was from her mum.

are you coming home soon? it read.

willow stood up suddenly, and brooklyn looked up confusedly.

"i have to go." she said, and willow would be lying is she said that her heart didn't skip a beat when she saw his shoulders sagged, looking crestfallen.

"w-will you come back tomorrow?"

and willow felt her heart squeezing sweetly. she felt herself grinning before saying yes, and oh my god, she swore that smile of his could light up the darkest of nights.

willow said her goodbyes to brooklyn, and walked home, but not before turning back to look at him once more.
