His bedroom wasn't like any other typical teenager's room. Instead of movie posters or posters of some a rock band, pictures of himself and who I supposed was his family decorated the cream coloured walls. In one of the pictures, I saw a young Thomas with two other small girls having fun at a beach. The three children looked so alike that they could be mistaken for triplets.
"Are those your sisters?" I pointed to the picture.
"Yup. They're in college now. I haven't seen them in a while." he said.
The vinyl record player was put in the corner of the room. A few vinyl records were neatly stacked next to it.

"Which one do you want to listen to?" he asked me.
"Urm, how about this one." I said while holding The Beatles vinyl record.
"Smart choice" he said as he took the vinyl record and played it.
'All my loving' started playing. I never realized how akward it would be. Suddenly he took my hand.
"C'mon lets dance." he told me.
"I don't dance." I replied and trying my best not to blush as he was holding my hand.
"Well, neither do I so come on." he told me, not giving up.
We started dancing a bit, following the beat of the song. I heard every lyric clearly.
Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tommorow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you

I looked up to glance at his face and I noticed that he was staring at me. I blushed and I quickly looked down.

I'll pretend that I'm kissing
The lips that I'm missing
And hope that while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send all my loving to you

All my loving, I will send to you
All my loving, darling I'll be true.

This experience was comforting and romantic but at the same time akward for me.

Close your eyes and I'll kiss you
Tomorrow I'll miss you
Remember I'll always be true
And then while I'm away
I'll write home every day
And I'll send my loving to you

All my loving, I will send to you
All my loving, darling I'll be true
All my loving, all my loving
Woo, all my loving, I will send to you

The song ended and I looked up at him again and suddenly, our faces were inches apart.

Hi again. I'm sorry if I got anything wrong about vinyl record players as I didn't own one before. I wrote down every single lyric for the song cause I couldn't copy paste so I hope I didn't get anything wrong. I just rewrote the lyrics from this website I found. And also, thank you so much for the 30+ reads!!! You guys are the reason I write fanfictions. Thank you all so much for using some of your precious time to read my story!!😊
