A melodic tune roared in my ears as I fell into nothingness. My gaze was forced straight ahead as the world sped in the opposite direction from me.
Suddenly, murmers flooded the scene, barely giving me enough time to process.
"With the one, the only. . . Billie Eilish!"
Muffled claps resonated through the atmosphere, cheers accompanying the excited people.
". . . hit single Ocean Eyes."
I clenched my eyes shut, unable to cover my ears as the noises began to crescendo.
"I've been watching you for some time."
I stopped falling.
I stood in the wings of a stage, seeing millions of people with gazes fixated on one person.
Billie. . .
"Can't stop starin' at those ocean eyes."
A red head man sat before a piano, playing the beautiful tune behind the song.
It was almost like watching someone piece together a puzzle. Everything had its home and in the end, they always found their place.
They never seemed to put a corner piece in the center.
They knew what the finished product would be before hand and they followed each piece in perfect order.
I was mesmerized by Billie's voice for the second time in my life.

I was harshly shoved out of my dream, getting thrown into reality like a bucket of cold ice to the face.
The creaks of the wooden floor sounded as someone padded across the bunk, attempting to be quiet.
They clearly failed.
I closed my eyes once more, giving my roomates the benefit of the doubt.
Maybe they need to piss?
Who the hell wakes up early just for that though?
Finally deciding to ignore it, sleep began to overtake me.
And then. . .
A giggle.
Muah.
"No! Sh. Get out, we don't wanna wake the girls up." A voice I recognized as Abby whisper shouted.
And my eyes widened in realization.
Douche.
Ew ew what the fuck!?
My skin crawled at what the two could possible be doing in the bunk below me.
Hoping to find a distraction, I ripped my phone from my mattress beside me and unlocked it quickly.
My eyes rolled down my contacts before it led me to the only person who could calm me down in a situation like this.
Me
mommy, I'm fucking scared
Birther
why are you up so early?
Me
I'm traumatized. .
Birther

Me
my friend brought a boy to our cabin
Birther
wow, they really didn't waste any time
Me
they're wasting my time! they're embarrasingly loud and it's bothering me
Birther
honey. . .
Birther
if your father and I cared about bothering Liam, we wouldn't have had you
I looked away from the phone screen in disgust, trying my best not to gag.
Swiping out of that contact, I busied myself with texting another person.
Me
rise and shine
Billie

My cheeks burned as I looked at the text.
Me

Billie

Me

Billie

Hot jealousy pooled in my vains. I don't even truly know why because Billie has already professed her attraction to me but. .
Something seems off.
Me

Billie

Billie

Billie

I watched the message with confused eyes.
Why was she acting awkward all of the sudden?
-
This is a shorty kudos to Abby.
What did ya think?
What's going on with Billie?
