Chapter 19

After a delicious lunch at the buffet, everyone decided to just spend the afternoon relaxing and doing whatever. There weren't any plans for the next few hours. Later that night, the four band members were going to a fireworks show on the beach. Kaminari and Jirou decided to go back to the hotel until then. 

As soon as the two of them entered their room and closed the door, Kaminari plopped down on his bed, taking out his phone. "Hey Earphones?" He asked.

"Yes?"

He held up his phone, giving her a hopeful smile. "Wanna sing karaoke?"

"Nope," Jirou replied quickly, crossing her arms. She took a seat on the edge of her bed.

"Aww, why not?" Kaminari asked, pouting with a sad expression on his face. "Your voice sounds really good though!"

She frowned in reply. "But why sing karaoke? There's plenty of other things we can do."

"Because why not," He said, shrugging before giving her a goofy grin. "And I'll sing too!"

"Fine, you idiot," Jirou muttered, sighing in defeat. "Karaoke it is." He did have a valid point, plus she was curious as to how his singing voice would sound like. She got off her bed and sat down on his bed, pulling her knees up to her chest.

After spending a little time bantering about what song they should sing first, they ended up deciding on one.

(Start song now.)

You're on the phone with your girlfriend, she's upset
She's goin' off about somethin' that you said
'Cause she doesn't get your humor like I do
I'm in the room, it's a typical Tuesday night
I'm listenin' to the kind of music she doesn't like
And she'll never know your story like I do

But she wears short skirts, I wear T-shirts
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreamin' 'bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can't you see
You belong with me
You belong with me

Walkin' the streets with you and your worn-out jeans
I can't help thinkin' this is how it ought to be
Laughin' on a park bench, thinkin' to myself
"Hey, isn't this easy?"
And you've got a smile that could light up this whole town
I haven't seen it in a while since she brought you down
You say you're fine, I know you better than that
Hey, what you doin' with a girl like that?

She wears high heels, I wear sneakers
She's cheer captain and I'm on the bleachers
Dreamin' 'bout the day when you wake up and find
That what you're looking for has been here the whole time

If you could see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along, so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standin' by and waitin' at your back door
All this time, how could you not know, baby
You belong with me
You belong with me

Oh, I remember you drivin' to my house
In the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're 'bout to cry
And I know your favorite songs
And you tell me 'bout your dreams
Think I know where you belong
Think I know it's with me

Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you?
Been here all along, so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standin' by and waitin' at your back door
All this time, how could you not know, baby
You belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me
