Ch 7 HERE AT LAST!

Music that inspired the chapter:

I Slipped, I Stumbled, I Fell

Chapter 6... yea it's there!

"Now everyone, if you were at our last show you've heard the old version of this," I look to Bella. I know she said she never wanted to sing this again but we had worked on it and made it our own. "This song means a lot to me because this fine lady right here wrote it. I've added my own spin on it. And so here you go." We sing through the song, the whole time Bella is shaking and looking around nervously, no doubt looking for that good for nothing piece of crap. When we get to the new lyrics, she looks at me shyly as though she's nervous. I grab her hand and sing, "Now I've got feet," her angelic voice lends, "and I've got feet." Together we harmonize, "let's start to walk where the loves meet. Let's go. Time's a wastin'."

I look into her eyes as I sing the next lines directly to her. Hopefully this is enough for her. I can't publicly call her my girl, but I can sure as anything give people clues.

Yea, don't ditch us just yet!

"Bella, I don’t want to say this without you at least looking at me. Please turn around and unlock the door.” I don’t know what else to do! She’ll think I’m just saying it to say it now. How in the world am I going to tell this girl I love her if she won’t even turn to face me.

“You’ve left me no choice Bella. And right now I don’t give a hoot who is listening I’ll scream it from the rooftops if I have to! Bella, I lo-” and it was as if my lungs had collapsed.

Then I look down to see that scarf and the body attached to it was currently attached to me.

“Don’t say it if you don’t mean it E. And definitely don’t say it so loud. You’ll ruin your image.” She says with the sweetest smile on her face, and what looked to be almost tears in her eyes.
