For 135EVIE, BatMac, and YJ_Person. Enjoy. This kept malfunctioning and not keeping your names, so I'm TICKED OFF SO MUCH WITH WATTPAD AND THIS DANG PHONE
Artemis stood in front of the microphone. She was in black skinny jeans, a long sleeved maroon shirt the hung of of one of her shoulders, and a black beanie. She was nervous, but trying not to show it. Wally grinned at her when she looked to him for support. Then she took a breath and started to sing.
Song: 8 Letters by Why Don't We
"You know me the best. You know my worst, see me hurt, but you don't judge. That, right there, is the scariest feeling.
Opening and closing up again. I've been hurt so I don't trust. Now here we are, staring at the ceiling.
I've said those words before but it was a lie. And you deserve to hear them a thousand times.
If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say? If all it is is eight letters,
why am I in my own way?
Why do I pull you close and then ask you for space? If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say?
Isn't it amazing how almost every line on our hands align when your hand's in mine. It's like I'm whole again, isn't that a sign I should speak my mind?
I've said those words before but it was a lie. And you deserve to hear them a thousand times. If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say? If all it is is eight letters, why am I in my own way?
Why do I pull you close and then ask you for space? If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say?"
"Whoa oh, yeah. Uh uh."
"When I close my eyes, it's you there in my mind. When I close my eyes.
If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say? If all it is is eight letters, why am I in my own way?
Why do I pull you close, and then ask you for space? If all it is is eight letters, why is it so hard to say? If all it is is eight letters.
When I close my eyes
It's you there in my mind."
"It's only you."
"When I close my eyes. If all it is is eight letters. When I close my eyes, it's you there in my mind."
"You."
"When I close my eyes. If all it is is eight letters."
There were whoops.
Later, Artemis settled into bed, trying to clear her mind. Her long blonde hair was soaked from the shower she had taken. She had had to leave before talking to Wally because a panic attack had hit her out of the blue. As soon as she could, she went back to the hotel.
She picked up her phone, and called Wally. "Hey, Wally."
"Hey, Arty! You feeling better?"
"Yeah. Can you come over?"
Wally was soon sitting on the bed beside her. She leaned over to him, relaxing. He draped her arm around him. They stayed just like that for a few minutes. Wally bent down and kissed her.
"I'm gonna go to sleep," Artemis said.
"Ok, babe." Wally got up, kissing her temple and tucking her in. "Love you, babe," He said when he reached the door.
Artemis froze. Then she took a deep breath and steeled up her courage. "I love you, too Wally."
Wally closed the door and walked back to his room, grinning from ear to ear.
