Just Run (Marko: The Lost Boys)

016: Always

I took a deep breath as the song began playing. I looked over at Marko to see him enchanted by me, gazing at me like I was the only girl in the room.

I can do this.

(Play song above)

This Romeo is bleeding, but you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up
It's been raining since you left me
Now I'm drowning in the flood
You see I've always been a fighter
But without you, I give up

Now I can't sing a love song
Like the way, it's meant to be
Well, I guess I'm not that good anymore
But baby, that's just me

Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always

I'll be there, till the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always

Now your picture's that you left behind
Are just memories of a different life
Some that made us laugh
Some that made us cry
One that made you have to say goodbye

What I'd give to run my fingers through your hair
Touch your lips, to hold you near,
When you say your prayers, try to understand
I've made mistakes, I'm just a man

When she holds you close when she pulls you near
When he says the words
You've been needing to hear, I'll wish I was her
'Cause these words are mine, to say to you
'Til the end of time

Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always

If you told me to cry for you, I could
If you told me to die for you, I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you

Well, there ain't no luck in these loaded dice
But baby, if you give me just one more try
We can pack up our old dreams, and our old lives,
We'll find a place, where the sun still shines

Yeah I, will love you, baby
Always and I'll be there
Forever and a day, always

I'll be there, till the stars don't shine
'Til the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you, always
Always

The boys were awestruck. Star was gaping at me like a fish as she watched my skirt shimmer in the low lighting of the bar, making me look like a goddess none the less as I vocalized.
My heart poured out as I sang, and I don't think Marko had ever felt more in love than he was as I sang my favorite Bon Jovi song.

Paul was in near tears as Dwayne and David stared at me in amazement. They hadn't expected me to be so good, much less sing a song by a popular Rock band.
Bon Jovi was my hero.

As I finally came to a stop, I shut my eyes. Waiting for the crowd's reaction.

I turned my head and looked at Amber and Saria who had been playing Piano and instruments. They had smug looks on their faces as they saw me, knowing damn well how good I could sing.

Abruptly after a minute of silence, the crowd went wild, the boys standing up to their feet to cheer.

" GO, BABY!" Marko shouted, shoving at Paul, " THAT'S MY GIRL! THAT'S MY GIRL!"

I blushed madly, crossing my arms as I became insecure.

Amber walked up to the mic, " And that my friends were Davina Rosemary Frog, thank you and goodnight!" The silver-haired girl shouted, watching as people filed out the bar while holding to-go cups of beer.

" What the fuck!" Star shouted, running over to me in the stage.

" Where did that come from?!" She asked before the boys were even close to me.

" Shit, Vi-Vi always had a bangin' voice. Never could get her to sing on the spot without a little spotlight though." Amber said as she dangled her legs off the stage edge.

Saria nodded, " When we were little we thought of making a band, never happened though." She said, nudging my shoulder, " How was boarding school?" She asked.

I scoffed, " Shit."

" Noted." Both girls nodded.

I smiled, " Saria, how was London?" I asked.

" Far too fancy. I had to go to a different party every night and it truly does get exhausting at times. Plus, my parents got on my nerves relentlessly." She said, her voice slipping into somewhat of a British sound.

I nodded, " Cool. Amber?"

Amber smirked, " Tattoos. 20$ pay up." She said, reminding me of the bet we made as kids.

I rolled my eyes and grabbed Marko's wallet. He smiled at me, " Why my wallet?" He asked.

" Because you're my boyfriend. Suck it up." I said, handing Amber twenty bucks.

David crossed his arms, " Davina, you gonna introduce us to your friends?" He asked.

I nodded with a smirk, " Boys, this is Saria Herrick and Amber Monroe. Girls these are-"

" The lost boys." Amber finished. " You guys have quite the reputation on the rez." She said.

Saria smirked, " Vampires. Damn little red, you got in with a vamp." She gushed, suddenly looking at Dwayne.

" Holy fuck! It's like looking at a sexy male Pocahontas!" She suddenly said as her eyes were drawn to his abs.

Dwayne smiled shyly, his hair covering his face slightly. " Dwayne." He said, reaching his hand out for her to shake.

She grinned, " Nice to meet you, Dwayne."

Oh heavens.
