We Are Alive (Markus x reader)

First Song

You and Markis were in an intense chess game with Carl as your audience

You: checkmate

Carl: Jesus Y/n your a master

Markus: I don't believe I'll be able to beat you

You: all I need now is the greatest chess player in the world to play against

Carl: maybe one day that'll happen...Markus, could you make me some tea, please?

Markus: of course Carl

After Markus went to the kitchen you started putting the chess pieces back

Carl: Y/n Markus told me about your little aikido lesson last night

You: oh did he? I'm sorry if it was a disturbance

Carl: oh not at all I think it's a way for you and Markus to become good friends but what really interests me is the music you were playing

You: the music? I don't know what's so interesting about it I just like listening to music when I do things

Carl: well who doesn't? But Markus described how alluring and angelic you were

You: r-really? Markus said that?

Carl: he did I think he's grown on you

You: I've taken a liking to him too especially that puppy look he has I think its really cute

Carl let out a chuckle as he rolled a bit closer to you

Carl: how about a song Y/n

You: a song? What kind of song?

Carl: any kind of song you want you can play whatever you want the choice is yours

You looked at the piano as your LED turned yellow you then got up and walked towards the piano you sat down with your fingers hovering over the keys you raised your head and saw Markus looking at you with his head slightly tilted making you smile and look down at the piano

You: *singing* you've got the words to change a nation, but you're biting your tongue you've spent your lifetime stuck in silence afraid you'll say something wrong if no one ever hears it how we gonna learn your song? So come on, come on come on, come on you got a heart as loud as lions so why let your voice be tamed maybe we're a little different there's no need to be ashamed you've got the light to fight the shadows so stop hiding it away come on, come on

You stood up from the seat your passion growing as you shut your eyes

You:*singing* I wanna sing, I wanna shout, I wanna scream till the words dry out so put in all of the papers, I'm not afraid they can read all about it, read all about it, no oh

Carl and Markus were amazed at the beautiful voice that was filling up the quiet mansion

You*singinng* at night we're waking up the neighbors while we sing away the blues making sure that we're remembered, yeah 'cause we all matter too if the truth has been forbidden then we're breaking all the rules so come on, come on, come on , come on let's get the TV and the radio to play our tune again its 'bout time we got some airplay of our version of events there's no need to be afraid I will sing with you my friend come, come, come on I wanna sing, I wanna shout I wanna scream 'til the words dry out so put in all of the papers I'm not afraid they can read all about it, read all about it

Carl: she's amazing she could be a singer someday

Markus was so entranced in your voice not even Carl's voice could drag him out of it

You: *singing* yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful people so when did we all get so fearful? Now we're finally finding our voices so take a chance, so help me sing this yeah, we're all wonderful, wonderful, people so when did we all become so fearful? And now we're finally finding our voices so take a chance, come help me sing this I wanna sing, I wanna shout, I wanna sing 'til the words dry out so put it in all of the papers I'm not afraid they can read all about it, read all about it oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh I wanna sing I wanna shout I wanna sing 'til the words dry out so put it in all of the papers I'm not afraid they can read all about it, read all about it oh

Once you stopped singing Markus and Carl immediately started clapping 

Carl: that was amazing Y/n I think you should start singing more often

You started rubbing parts of your hair with a low purr rising up your throat

You: do you really think to was good? My master never complimented my singing before

Markus: I think you were amazing

Carl: you're a natural your voice makes this empty place a lot more lively

You: I'm glad you liked it

Carl: let's sit and have some tea we can talk about some things

You walked towards the dining room table as you walked next to Markus you felt a hesitant rub on your head making the low purr you had come out

Carl: *chuckles* you never purr as loud when I rub you

You: it's not my fault Markus gives me this weird feeling when he rubs me

Carl: what kind of feeling?

You: Um... I don't know

His smile only grew wider as Markus rolled him behind the table

You: what's that smile for?

Carl: nothing just had a nice thought
