A New Beginning

Dinner

He reluctantly let go and we walked inside. I walked to the bottom of the stairs and turned towards Niall.

“Shut up. Don’t even say anything” I said to him before I turned to go upstairs, still drenched from the pool. He laughed. I heard him laugh harder. Zayn must have been telling him what happened. I grabbed some comfy, warm clothes and headed to the bathroom. I locked both doors and took my shower. I got out as fast as I could. I looked at the clock, 5:15pm. Iris should be home soon. I got dressed and decided to let my hair dry naturally so it would be wavy, then I was gonna braid a strip around the top of my hair. I grabbed my phone and texted her.

To Iris: Need to talk to you ASAP. Ignore the boys when you come in, lol. Important. Have 2 things to talk about. :)

I sat on my bed and opened my laptop. I pulled up iTunes and clicked on one of my playlists and put it on shuffle. The first song that popped up was “Heart Skips A Beat” by Olly Murs. I laughed. How appropriate. I sang along and danced around the room. I heard my phone beep and picked it up. It was a text from Iris.

To Jess: Everything alright? Something happen? Everyone ok? Xx

I laughed to myself, she was such a worrier.

To Iris: Yes, Yes, and I think so. Guys are fine. Me I’m not so sure about. Physically I am fine. lol

I continued to sing and dance around for a few minutes until the song changed to something a bit slower. “Skyscraper” by Demi Lovato, one of my favorite songs. I get goose bumps every time I hear it. I sat on the ottoman near the end of my bed and began braiding my hair as I continued singing. I thought everyone was still downstairs, so I sang a little louder. I really got into the song. It fit perfectly to my life right now. It was like I was singing to Ryan.

Skies are crying, I am watching

Catching teardrops in my hands

Only silence, as it's ending, like we never had a chance.

Do you have to make me feel like, there's nothing left of me?

 

You can take everything I have

You can break everything I am

Like I'm made of glass

Like I'm made of paper

Go on and try to tear me down

I will be rising from the ground

Like a skyscraper, like a skyscraper

 

As the smoke clears

I awaken and untangle you from me

Would it make you feel better to watch me while I bleed

All my windows, still are broken, but I'm standing on my feet

 

You can take everything I have

You can break everything I am

Like I'm made of glass

Like I'm made of paper

Go on and try to tear me down
