don't play the song yet!!

so i drown it out
like i always do
dancing through our house
with the ghost of you...

"stop playing that fucking depressing music!" josh shouts at me, and i flip him off.

"fuck off, and go somewhere else if you don't wanna fucking listen" i reply, and he scowls.

"fucking bitch" he mumbles, and i roll my eyes.

"fine, if i'm just too much of an emotional wreck for you to handle" i fume, and stomp off towards the music room.

i turn the handle, and get immediate flashbacks to only 4 hours ago, when we were all playing hide and go seek.

i gently close the door, trying not to disturb the peace. walking over to the keyboard, and sit down on a stool, and turn it on.

playing the song that was on before, my fingers trace over the keys, melodies vibrating through the room.

play the song and wait for the lyrics to begin, but just imagine it's her singing!

"here i am waking up
still can't sleep on your side
theres your coffee cup
the lipstick stain fades with time

if i could dream long enough
you'd tell me i'd be just fine
i'll be just fine

so i drown it out
like i always do
dancing through our house
with the ghost of you

and i chase it down
with the shot of truth
dancing through our house
with the ghost of-"

"never knew you could sing"

a voice interrupts me, making my heart beat rapidly as i recognise their voice.

"grayson.." i say, but my voice trails off.

"what's the song called?" he asks, walking over to where i'm sat.

"ghost of you, by 5sos" i say, looking away, blushing. he had just caught me doing what i had barely shown to anyone.

"i like it, but it sounds way better with your voice" he smiles at me.

was, was he flirting with me?

"oh, thanks" i say, my cheeks going even redder than before.

"hey look at me" he says, barely above a whisper.

i turn my head, and he chuckles lightly when he sees my pink cheeks.

we're gazing into each others eyes for a minute, before our lips crash together. i was too frozen to do anything, so i closed my eyes, and went with it.

after a few seconds, we pull apart, both of us slightly out of breath.

"oh my gosh" he says, grinning at me. "perfect singer, and beautiful inside and out, what more could i ask for?"
