A Walk In The Park (GirlxGirl)

Chapter 2

Narrator's pov

"Oh-" The girl muttered when she noticed she was in the middle of a crowd

Bodies surrounded them in a circle as they all held a wide smile, some swayed gently to the sound of the girl's voice while others bopped their heads up and down

But the crowd was a little too big for Ember's liking, especially since there were more people taller than her which blocked her view of the girl that was actually singing

But despite it all, her smile still rose even wider, maybe at the fact that she was even closer towards the singer so that she could hear every clean run and warm tone in the girl's voice

"When you're on a holiday, You can't find the words to say. All the things that come to you And I want to feel it too" the voice sang so softly as if it was afraid to raise a bit higher to ruin its gentleness

Ember closed her eyes and took a deep breath in at the feeling that was tugging on her heartstrings

It had been a while since she had heard that song.

Something inside her felt different when she heard the girl's voice, almost as if the sun had rose, casting the trees in their virescent hues and bringing the warm brown tones back to the earth inside of her veins

She felt something new. It was as if invisible holes were poked in her skin during that moment and all of her tension leeched out. Her steps felt lighter and she tilted her face toward the brilliant voice coming from upfront. It brought back memories of her childhood, it had been such a long time since she had heard the song

A time when her toes wiggled in the tiny sand particles, watching the waves come in and wash away the messy sand scattered on her feet. The way her father's hand was warm in her palm as he lightly tugged on hers, walking along the side of the beach with one side of his headphones in while she wore the other, the familiar song blasting through her eardrums while they walked along the shore, watching the ball of sunshine fade behind the horizon and what was once blue water became ink black liquid yet still clear. Her father's deep voice boomed when he chuckled at her tiny pout when missing the sight of the sun she deemed so beautiful

It was a feeling she would never forget, a time when all of her worries didn't matter and a time where she felt at peace and safe. Which is why she felt those exact nostaglic emotions run through her when she heard the mysterious girl singing from across the park lawn

"On an island in the sun, We'll be playin' and havin' fun"

Her voice was smooth and clear and quiet yet powerful. Soothing, in a way. A voice so beautiful, It was the promise of tomorrow. It was beautiful, and Ember wished that she would never stop

She hadn't even realized that she was pushing through the crowd, the audience gave her a look of disgust as she shoved past their shoulders but Ember didn't care, her mind was only on one thing and one thing only

Seeing the face of the person behind that voice

"And it makes me feel so fine, I can't control my brain"

Ember's heart started to race again, each beat getting a bit faster as she came closer towards the front of the crowd, just a few more pushes was all she needed and she would be home free

"When you're on a golden sea, you don't need no memory, just a place to call your own, as we drift into the zone"

Ember's heart finally reached full potential and stopped right then and there when her eyes landed on the girl who held a guitar, strumming it slowly
