Dreams

Ch 7: Their Lullaby

Previously:

Sitting down in a chair in the den I get my guitar out of the case and get a pic out of my bag. Taking a drink out of my glass sitting it down. Mel take a hat and puts all the slips of paper in it. Shakying the hat everyone comes and sits around me. On the couch and in the chairs in the room. Pillows and blackets are brought in the room and everyone took a blanket and a pillow.

Now:

After the party all of the boys started their lives. Asking me first of course. I only asked that they dont say my name. And they set them up surrounding the den. Live streaming for a few hours of me singing to them all.

Once everyone got comfortable with their pillows and blanket alot of the guys were laying on eachother and Heidi was laying on Darius. Everyone looked comfortable. So Mel sat the hat down next to me. 15 songs were chosen.  My phone was passed around and everyone chose a song. Some people picked the same songs. So I had a long night ahead of me. Before I started I got rid of the alchohol and stuck to my gatorade I picked up from the store earlier.

I pick out the first song and giggle at it. I havent heard this song in a while. The first song is Mercy by Brett Young. I sing this first song and Zach gets up to get water for everyone. He comes back handing everyone water and sits back down. Singing the song everyone settles down even more. Drinking water and listening. "Such a pure voice." Darius said. "Thank you." I say picking the second song. I start to play. Singing Creep by Radiohead. Mid song nature calls. So I hold through until im done. Politely excusing myself to handle my business. Once I come back a few of the boys are checking their lives.

Once I sat back down so did they. "The lives are saying that you have an angelic voice." Tyler said. "Thank yall." I say loudly waving at the lives. Causing everyone to break out in laughter along with myself. I started my own live stream along side theirs. Mel dimmed the lights and everyone snuggled up closer to eachother.

I sang the next 6 songs without being interrupted by anything.
10,000 hours- Dan and Shay
Sweet Child O' Mine- Guns N' Roses
Shallow- Lady Gaga
Hold Me While You Wait- Lewis Capaldi
7 Years- Lukas Graham
Fly- Maddie and Tae

After those 6 songs everyone got up to use the bathroom. After everyones bathroom breaks they came back and layed exactly like they were before. I take a drink of my gatorade and continue to play. After 5 more songs everyone is pretty much dosing off or already asleep. But I continue to play anyways.
Nose On The Grindstone- Tyler Childers
I know Im Not The Only One- Lewis Capaldi
Feathered Indians- Tyler Childers
Lips Of An Angel- Hinder
When I look At You- Milet Cyrus

After those 5 I stop playing to take another drink. Everyone was asleep but me. I quietly got up and walked over to the lives. Stopping each one after saying good night shutting their phones off and laying them down. I did the same with mine. I return to my chair to keep playing. Taking another drink I pull the last peice of paper out which has two songs on it.
You Are The Reason- Calum Scott
Follow You To Virgie- Tyler Childers

I play those last two songs and everyone is dead asleep. I stop playing and the room fills with the sounds of their light snoring. I feel at home. Like I finally belong.

I keep playing to keep the peace and the atmosphere calm. After about 15 minutes of playing I fall asleep with my guitar in my hand.
