when he sees me | Jared Kleinman x Reader |

28. Close To You

Y/n's p.o.v.:

We ended up going to his house instead since his was closer and he said he wanted to show me some things that he had kept throughout the years.

While we looked through the boxes that Jared had stored in his closet I realized this was the first time I was in Jared's room. And then that's when I found a small ukulele in the corner along with some sheet music.

"I didn't know you played ukulele." I said lowly and examined the instrument and held it the wrong way making Jared laugh.

"What?"

"You're holding the instrument wrong, here let me show you how you hold it."

As Jared was showing me the correct way that the ukulele should be held I couldn't help but enjoy the feeling of his hand holding my hand.

His face was close to mine as well and that's when I kissed him. "Play something for me." I whispered making him flustered.

"Are you sure I'm not really that good-"

"Please?"

"Fine but you're singing." He said to which I nodded all I wanted was to see him make the instrument come to life.

I held up the paper that had the notes and lyrics and grinned when I read the title of the song.

"You remembered huh?"

"Why wouldn't I remember?"

Jared held the small guitar like instrument and began to play a rhythm and I began to sing the lyrics lowly. (You can play the music in the background :3)

Memories began to fill up my mind as I sang.

I once told Jared that I saw a girl playing a tiny guitar on my way home and she was singing a song that I didn't know but it sounded (that doesn't sound right) amazing.

One day I decided to take Jared to see the girl and we both stared in awe as she sang angelically.

Afterwards Jared asked the girl what song she was singing and soon afterwards we both looked up the song on the school computer and printed out the sheet music for the ukulele.

We even promised to buy a ukulele one day and we would go sit in the very spot that the girl sat and sing that song. However, that never happened because that was when Jared began to change and we started to separate from each other.

I never knew I could relate to a song so much at a young age and I constantly hummed that song when I felt down.

I still remember all the girls blushing and crushing on him, he was one of the popular kids back then. Now he isn't popular, maybe he finally figured out that popularity isn't everything. It's better just being yourself.

As the song came to an end I leaned closer to Jared and he did the same.

"Just like me they long to be close to you..."

Our lips collided and the song was long forgotten now it was just us two. I didn't need to worry about not being able to reach him because right now he was in my arms.

And I was in his.

Oof sorry for the short chapter I'm finishing my summer assignments and i'm not ready to go back to school. T-T

I don't really know what else to do with story I think it has come to an end, or what do you guys think?

Any ideas as to where I should take this story?
