Listening to Love

Again? Freaking again?
The music played in his head, keeping him awake. It was midnight, for gods sake! His soulmate stayed up seriously late. Maybe if he countered it with his own music, that might stop it. He slipped his earbuds in, scrolled through his songs, and finally selected one. Hotline Bling might shut down their I Can't Decide. Instead their music grew louder, making it hard for him to rest. He countered it with Thank you, at full volume. She played Problem. He played Dynamite.
She played Roar.
He played Party Rock.
Stronger.
The Monster.
Their argument continued for a while until she finally played something calmer. Can't Sleep Love.
He sighed and played one more song. Bubbly.
Her music stopped completely, he closed his eyes, and after a while, fell asleep.
