Thunder by Boys like girls
Today is a winding
road
Thats taking me to places that I didnt want to go, whoa
Today
in the blink of an eye
Im holding on to something and I do not
know why I tried
I tried to read between the lines
I tried
to look in your eyes
I want a simple explanation; what Im feeling
inside
I gotta find a way out
Maybe theres a way out
Your
voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any
other?
Youll always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the
brightest of all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll
always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the
thunder
Today is a winding road
Tell me where to start and
tell me something I dont know, whoa
Today Im on my own
I cant
move a muscle and I cant pick up the phone, I dont know
And
now I'm itching for the tall grass
And longing for the breeze
I
need to step outside, just to see if I can breathe
I gotta find a
way out
Maybe theres a way out
Your voice was the
soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll
always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of
all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be
my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
Yeah
Im walking on a tightrope
I'm wrapped up in vines
I think Ill
make it out but you just gotta give me time
Strike me down with
lightning
Let me feel you in my veins
I wanna let you know how
much I feel your pain
Today is a winding road
Thats taking
me to places that I didnt want to go, whoa
Your voice was the
soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any other?
Youll
always be my thunder, and I said
Your eyes are the brightest of
all the colors
I dont wanna ever love another
Youll always be
my thunder
So bring on the rain
And bring on the thunder
Your
voice was the soundtrack of my summer
Do you know youre unlike any
other?
Youll always be my thunder
So bring on the rain
Oh
baby bring on the pain
And listen to the thunder
Note this story is told in both Lily and Jackson's perspective at different times.
Thunder

Lily…
My head was full of different thoughts as I slept which caused me to have a vivid dream. I don't really remember it, only that I was standing in the snow somewhere in the woods. On my right side stood Oliver, sweet, perfect Oliver. Then only my left stood Jackson, understanding, loving Jackson. I was standing there glancing at Oliver then Jackson. I couldn't take it anymore, all the confusion! I woke up as quickly as I could to see Oliver laying there next to me watching me sleep.
"You were talking again." he whispered.
I sat up and glared at Oliver. "I was not." I knew I talked in my sleep but I usually denied it. Even if Oliver had sat there with a tape recorder and played back my strange conversations with myself I would have still denied it was me.
"Yeah you were." he chuckled.
"What did I say then?"
Oliver smiled a big smiled "You said my name a lot. 'Oliver…Oliver…Oliver.'" he mocked me.
I glared at him again with narrowed eyes "Ha ha" I said sarcastically. "Is that it?"
The smile quickly disappeared "You also said Jackson a few times too."
My stomach was in knots now, why had I asked him what I said? I knew I had been talking in my sleep, I wouldn't argue that with him again.
"I did?"
Oliver nodded "You did."
I looked in his eyes and could see the sorrow I hoped I'd never see again. "Oliver, I'm really sorry. I've just been thinking about Jackson lately. I haven't seen him and he won't talk to me or answer my calls… I think he hates me now."
"He doesn't hate you, he hates me."
"I think he mostly hates what you are."
"And what I am to you." he added
I looked at him puzzled "What do you mean?"
He sat up and looked at me like I was missing something so obvious. "He hates that you have feelings for me."
"That's not true!" I objected. "He's my best friend and I don't think he feels anything more than that towards me." I took his face in my hands and looked at him deeply. "And I love you and only you."
Oliver smiled that crooked smile that I loved so much and kissed me lightly on the forehead. "Go back to sleep Lily, I don't want you to be tired tomorrow. There are only a few days left of school before you graduate."
"You're graduating too."
Oliver laughed "This will be like my sixth time graduating Lily, it's never any different. Except this year Miley is planning a graduation party for you."
"Ugh don't remind me! You know I hate parties especially when they're for me."
"You're not like other girls are you Lily?"
I gave him a look "Is that a good thing?"
Oliver kissed my cheek "It's one of the many things I love about you."
I smiled at his comforting words and within minutes I was fast asleep with my head on his cold chest. He wrapped me tightly in a blanket and kissed my eyes. I didn't have the dream again that night but I knew I would probably be speaking Oliver's name and with that, Jackson's. Both of these guys who meant so much to me consumed my every thought and it was start to give me a headache. My love for Oliver and my love for Jackson was starting to become more than I could handle.
