Milly's view:

I wake up in a foreign bed. Where am I? My hand is moving to the other side. Nobody! But I know I'm not at home. The whole room is dark. A few moments later I can see a bit more.
A chair in the corner and dark curtains. The yellow light from the streets is shining against the curtains. What the hell am I wearing here? A shirt which is way too big for me. A small orange circle on the breast pocket. Finnally I get where I am. In Chris' flat in London.

I stand up and go to the door. Silent music finds my ear. Piano tones from a sad player. I opened it and follow the music. I enter the living room and see him on the tiny chair.
With no words I just sat down on the ground, beside it and listen to the wonderful harmony.
I close my eyes and let the sound through my ear. Maybe it's the alcohol in my blood, but I can't suppress a huge grin, which run all over my face. After he ends the music, he looks down on the ground, directly in my eyes.

,,Milly, I didn't realised that you're here. '', he said surprised.
,,Don't worry. I just heard this beautiful sound and thought I have to find the player of it. '', I answer.
He leans backwards as a huge smile on his face appears.
,, Don't you want and sit beside me? '', was his next question.
,,Uhm....yes ok. But hopefully you don't want me to play the instrument.'', I express.
,, Oh don't worry. You don't have to play. I'll do this! '', Chris adds.
That was enough to convince me. I stand up and sit down beside him on the piano chair.
,, Between you look really cute in my shirt. It's little too big for you. But you look cute. '', he estimates.
,,Well thx. '', I answer, while I'm feeling blessed.
,,What do you want to sing? '', Chris asks.
,, I don't know, but the previous song sounds very sad. Are you ok? '', I question.
,, Yes sure. I just played the tones from my head. '' he adds.
,, What about Clocks? Let's play that.'',I ask once again.
He doesn't say any other word, just layed his fingers down on the piano and started the riff of one of my favourite songs. I started singing:

The lights go out and I can't be saved,
tides that I try to swim against
had brought me down upon my knees,
oh I beg I beg and  pleade, singing

Come out off the things unsaid
shoot an apple off my head and a
trouble that can't be named
a tiger's waiting to be tamed, singing.

You are, you are
..........

After we finished the song, we look each other straight in the eyes. All this time I had a queasy feeling next to him. It wasn't the insight, that I sit next to him, but I'm closer to him, that I've ever been before.
Than he takes his hands off the piano and lays them in my neck.
,, You changed my life Milly Jenkins! Since I saw you in the stadium in Argentina, I can't get you out of my head. You are in it 24/7 and you turned my world upside down. Maybe you think now, that I'm not serious, but it's the truth. '', Chris says. Wow, he feels exactly like me. The whole time over. He falls for me too. That can't be real! Why in hell should he fall for someone like me?
,,I feel the same way. '', I answer.
His bright blue eyes are starring into my soul. I lay my hands also on his shoulders and starting to grin.

,,What?", Chris asks. ,,Nothing, the Moment is just so perfect.", I answer. ,,Can I do something? I mean I know maybe it's ", he asks carefully.
,,Sure!", I respond, because i think I know what he's gonna do in the next few seconds. He'll kiss me, finally.

His fingers strokes the skin behind my ear and than he pulls me closer to him. I close my eyes and let the moment pass by. In the next second his soft and warm lips touch mine. They are even softer than I thought. And holy crap he is such a good kisser. My hands wander to his face and I place them in his neck too.  After a felt eternity we both stop our connection and rest our forhead against each others. We're both out of breath and laughing.

,,What the hell did just happened?", Chris questiones.
,,We kissed!", I express.
,,Finally. You don't know how long I've waited for this moment.", he adds.
,,I guess since Argentina.", I answer him one again.
,,Yes. Honestly I didn't believe in the love of the first sight, but you were in the right place, on the right time. Imagine, what would've happened if I hadn't gone on stage again after this gig. I never had met you!",Chris express.

Maybe I shouldn't have done this, but I didn't get a damn at that time. I lean forward and kiss him again. Please dear god, don't let this feeeling ever end! He gets what I'm up too and lean in in the kiss a bit more passionate. As I open my mouth a bit, his tongue invide in it and slowly he takes possession of my mouth. In my early years, I had pushed him back and yelled at him, that he was stupid and so on, but right now, nothing better could happen.

His hands have meanwhile reached my upper body. Mine had wandered down to his shirt. Suddenly he stops our little fiddling around and gets up.

,,Come on! It's nearly 3 am. Let's go to bed, honey!", Chris said in a tired but inviting voice.

I look at him with a huge smile, grab his hand and follow him to his bedroom.
