Crushes with Song

Chapter 1: Bleeding Love

One evening in the Sacred Peach Tree of Wisdom, Crane was sitting through the tree, watching the sunset go down and he's got one person on his mind that he secretly falls for: Viper. He sighed heavily and realizes that he loves her, even though he likes her as a friend and he kept looking at the sky and realize that they have a secret relationship, that should be kept unknown.

"How's it going?"

Then, Po came in and decides to hang out with Crane and watch the sunset with him, unaware that he's got one person already on his mind: Tigress. He's got a massive crush on her since he was young and feeling that he's friends with her, his love for Tigress has been increasing, even though that he doesn't want to admit it to her.

"It's going fine." Crane answered.

Po realized that there was something in his mind and he's falling for a certain someone and he felt the same way as well. He looked at Crane and asked, "Mind if I join you?"

Crane turned to Po and nodded his head. Po sighs heavily and sat down next to him, watching the sun go down together.

"Po?"

Po looked at Crane and asked, "Yeah?"

"Do you ever have this feeling... that.... there's something inside of you that someone you know, that you're friends with, but suddenly realize that, you know--"

"Your friend is more than just a friend and that you're falling for her, but doesn't know it yet?" Po finished.

Crane stared at Po, feeling like he understands him and understood what he said, knowing that they have a secret crush, and afraid to show it and nods his head. Po stared at Crane and said, "Yeah, I have that same feeling too. Are you thinking about...?"

"Viper?" Crane asked.

Po nodded his head and he already knows what's on his mind and Crane agrees with him. Then, Crane asked, "You feeling the same thing about..."

"Tigress?" Po asked, and then nodded his head, too.

"So, I guess we're really falling for both s." said Crane.

"No doubt about it."

"Do you ever feel like there's a part of you inside that really wants to express yourself and let it out in the open?" asked Crane.

"Like singing your heart out?"

Crane answered, "Yeah."

Po had the same idea together. To express their feelings, they felt that they decided they should sing. Po asked, "Why don't you start?"

"I will if you start." said Crane.

"All right, I'll start the song."

Po took a deep breath and decided to sing his heart out.

Po: Closed off from love I didn't need the pain
Once or twice was enough and it was all in vain
Time starts to pass before you know it you're frozen

Crane: Oh, but something happened for the very first time with you
My heart was melted to the ground found something true
And everyone's looking round thinking I'm going crazy, baby

Both: But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth
My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Po: Trying hard not to hear but they talk so loud
Their ounds fill my ears try to fill me with doubt
Yet I know that the goal is to keep me from falling (Ohh...)

Crane: Oh, but nothing's greater than the rush that comes with your embrace
And in this world of loneliness I see your face
Yet everyone around me thinks that I'm going crazy, maybe

Po: (Crazy) (Maybe)

But I don't care what they say
I'm in love with you
They try to pull me away
But they don't know the truth

Crane: My heart's crippled by the vein
That I keep on closing
You cut me open and I

Both: I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
You cut me open

Crane: And it's draining all of me

Po: Though they find it hard to believe

Both: I'll be wearing these scars for everyone to see

Po: Cause I don't care what they say

I'm in love with you

They try to pull me away

But they don't know the truth

Crane: My heart's crippled by the vein

That I keep on closing

Oh, you cut me open and I

Both: I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
Oh you cut me open and I

I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
I keep, keep bleeding love
I keep bleeding
Keep, keep bleeding love

"Awesome voice." said Crane.

"Yeah, you too, buddy." said Po.

Po and Crane sat down and kept watching the sunset going down, and talking about Tigress and Viper and what will their reaction be if they express their feelings for them.


That's cute! BTW, the song is "Bleeding Love" from Jesse McCartney. I know what you guys are thinking; why would Jesse McCartney record the song when Leona Lewis sung it? He wrote it, recorded it before he passed it to Leona Lewis. Unfortnately, it didn't make the cut on 'Depature', but he put the song on the international versions of his album, so If any of you guys have iTunes, it'll be much easier to find. Did you know it was Jesse's first song to be nominated for a Grammy for 'Record of the Year'? Big shock! I have to say Jesse McCartney's version of "Bleeding Love" is awesomer than Leona Lewis' version. Simply, I like Jesse's version than Leona's. What do you guys think? You can feel free to tell me which version you like while reviewing my story.
