Read Between the Lines
Chapter 1
"What I'm standing on is sinking in
And I don't have a clue how to get off of it
But when I look at you there is hope
It's like you see the sadness in my eyes
You read the blue between the lines
You could be the one to hold me when I wanna cry"
14-year-old Miley Stewart sung out to the empty Sea View Middle School auditorium
She sighed. 'Why can't someone just see right through my act. Why can't they see that I'm not just the happy-go-lucky, sarcastic Miley Stewart. That inside I'm crying. Why can't I get the courage to let Jake that I like him... a lot' She sighed again.
What the secret pop star didn't know was that someone did see past her act. That a certain zombie-slayer was watching her sing and seeing right through her. ' I want to be able to take all her pain away but she has to let me in, to be able to trust me.' Jake thought watching the only person who treated him as a person and not a star.
"Underneath this smile
My world is slowly caving in
All the while I'm hanging on
Cause that is all I know
Could you be the one to save me from every bad habit that has helped me dig this hole?
I've been hiding out for miles
Underneath this smile"
'Another day goes by why can't somebody just read between the lines. Even my best-friends believe it. I must be a better actress than I thought.' she thought. 'I can if you let me in.' Jake thought.
I have walked this earth with broken bones
I've been keeping secrets under all these lights
But when you're around my defenses go
You don't let me run away from you
You don't let me twist and turn the truth
It feels as if I'm naked when you're standing in the room
She let the act go her smile, her sarcasm, her wit, everything that made her happy, perfect Miley. As Jake looked into her blue-gray-green eyes he saw pain, fear, loneliness, and something hidden. He saw a tear make it's down her cheek. That was followed by others, until she was silently crying.
Underneath this smile
My world is slowly caving in
All the while I'm hanging on instead of letting go
Could you be the one to save me from every bad habit that has helped me dig this hole?
I've been hiding out for miles
Underneath this smile
Underneath this smile
Oh, yeah
As she looked through her crying eyes she saw a flash of blonde hair. As she wiped her eyes she saw her secret-crush, and not so secret-sort of enemy. The one and only Jake Ryan. But as she looked into his blue eyes she saw understanding, sincereness, concern, and something else. He nodded his head and with a gentle smile urged her to finish her song.
Underneath this smile
My world is slowly caving in
All the while I'm hanging on instead of letting go
Could you be the one to save me from every bad habit that has helped me dig this hole?
He started to climb the stage stairs and made his way slowly to the broken girl.
Underneath this smile
Could you be the one to save me from every bad habit that has helped me dig this hole?
I've been hiding out for miles
Underneath this
Underneath this
Underneath this smile
He silently stood in front of her as she finished the song.
What I'm standing on is sinking in
When she finished the song they just stood there staring into each others eyes, one pair still crying. Then, She leaned forward and hugged him he hesitated for a nano of a second then wrapped his arms around her and let her cry into his chest.
After sometime she looked up at him and gave him a sweet smile. "Thank you." she said. He cupped her face and whispered "For what?" "For reading in the between the lines." He just smiled at her before claiming her lips with his own.
The End...
