Not having a very good day so I figured I'd update for you guys.
CHAPTER NINETEEN: THE DANCE (part 3)
Where we left off:
I've waited all my life to cross this line
To the only thing that's true
So I will not hide
Its time to try anything to be with you
All my life I've waited
This is true
( - True - Ryan Cabrera)
When the song was over the students cheered and threw things on stage. But Lily and James were oblivious (See Mrs. Mentzer? I can use that word right!) to anything around them. Megan and Haley walked up on stage to congratulate the boys.
Neither Lily nor James ever broke eye contact. James moved his head in about to kiss her when he stopped. Lily couldn't take it, she pressed her mouth against his. She snaked her arms around his neck as he put his arms around her waist.
They pulled apart slowly when the need for oxygen became overwhelming.
"I liked your songs," Lily whispered.
"I wrote them for you," James whispered back.
Lily smiled. "You did?"
James nodded. "See I had this plan to win you over. I would write you really great songs and sing them to you. And you would fall madly in love with me."
"It worked," Lily said.
"Really?" James said.
"Uh-huh," Lily said leaning in to kiss him again as the next song played.
"This is for the love birds over there," the lead singer, Jessica, said, motioning to Lily and James.
Lily and James broke apart and danced.
The real me is a southern girl with her Levis on and an open heart
Wish I could save the world, like I was super girl
The real me used to laugh all night lying in the grass just talking about love
But lately I've been jaded life got so complicated
I start thinking about it,
I almost forgot what it was like
To know what it feels like
Cause with you
I can let my hair down
I can say anything crazy
I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground
With nothing but a T-shirt on
I never felt so beautiful
Baby as I do now
Now that I'm with you
With you, with you, with you
Now that I'm with you
You speak and it's like a song
And just like that all my walls come down
It's like a private joke just meant for us to know
I relate to you naturally
Everybody else just fades away
Sometimes it's hard to breathe
Just knowing you found me
Cuz I start thinking about it,
I almost forgot what it was like
To know what love feels right
Cause with you
I can let my hair down
I can say anything crazy
I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground
With nothing but a T-shirt on
I never felt so beautiful
Baby as I do now
Now that I'm with you
With you
Come and take me
Love you save me
Like nobody else
Now I can be myself
With you
With you
I can let my hair down
I can say anything crazy
I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground
With nothing but a T-shirt on
I never felt so beautiful
Baby as I do now (Baby as I do now)
Now that I'm with you
The next song started playing and Lily and James went and sat with Haley and Remus, and Megan and Sirius.
Wish you didnt love me
I wish youd make this easy
It was love that caught me
Now it's fear that keeps me with you
I want to be by your side
So I can close my eyes
To the growing emptiness inside that kills ms
When I'm with you
You try to break me Try to hate me
So you can fall out of love
You want to make me believe that I'm crazy
That I'm nothing with out you
It's unbelievable but I believed you
Unforgivable but I forgave you
Insane what love can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
I feel you in my shadow
My heart feels cold and hollow
No matter where I run I see
Your eyes always follow me
You try to hold me
Try to own me
Keeping something that's not yous
You want to make me
Believe that I'm crazy
Make me think that you're the cure
It's unbelievable but I believed you
Unforgivable but I forgave you
Insane what love can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
You're still haunting me
In my sleep
You're all I see
But I can't go back
Cause I know it's wrong
For us to go on
And I'm growing strong
To confront my fears
It's unbelievable but I believed you
Unforgivable but I forgave you
Insane what love can do
That keeps me coming back to you
You're irreplaceable but I'll replace you
Now I'm standing on my own
Alone
"Let's speed it up a little! What do ya say?!" Jessica said. The crowed screamed.
Oh yeah, uh-huh
Yeah
Won't ya dance
Clocks strikes upon the hour
and the sun begins to fade
Still enough time to figure out
how to chase my blues away
I've done alright up till now
it's the light of the day that shows me how
And when the night falls
my loneliness calls
Ohhhhh! I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah! I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
I've been in love
and lost my senses
spinning through the town
Sooner or later the fever ends
and I wind up feeling down
I need a man who'll take a chance
on a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
my lonely heart calls
Oh I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat
Yeah I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
(Somebody who somebody who)somebody who loves me
(Somebody who somebody who)will hold me in his arms
I need a man who'll take a chance
on a love that burns hot enough to last
So when the night falls
my lonely heart calls
Oh wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat with somebody
Yeah wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Oh I wanna dance with somebody
I wanna feel the heat
Yeah I wanna dance with somebody
With somebody who loves me
Yeah
Don't you wanna dance with me baby
Don't you wanna dance with me boy
Don't you wanna dance with me baby
with somebody who loves me
don't you wanna dance
say you wanna dance
don't you wanna dance...
with somebody who loves me
"James, this night has been . . . perfect," Lily said.
"It's not over yet," James said. "Dance with me."
All six got up and walked to the dance floor.
Watching every motion
In my foolish lover's game
On this endless ocean
Finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
My love
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching I keep waiting
Still anticipating love
Never hesitating
To become the fated ones
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
My love
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Through the hourglass I saw you
In time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today
I am unafraid
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching every motion
In this foolish lovers game
Haunted by the notion
Somewhere there's a love in flames
Turning and returning
To some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion
As you turn around and say
My love
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
"Do I take your breath away?" Lily asked.
"Every second," James said.
"Wanna go for a walk?" Lily asked.
"Okay," James said.
They walked out side and sat on a bench a little away from anyone.
"James, look, I know that I used to call you names and I was really mean to you. But this year, you changed and I noticed. And I'm really glad you did because . . . I think . . . I think I love you," Lily said.
James grinned. "I've been waiting 7 years for you to say those magical words. I love you too." He leaned in and kissed her, like he had never kissed another girl before.
