Flashbacks


I looked out into the crowded bar and saw the group I was looking for. My brother's arm is wrapped around Sarah, same with Pogue and Kate. Tyler and Reid were sitting in their usual spot. Reid smiled at me and I felt my face get hot. I sat on the stool and adjusted the mic and began to strum.

I don't think that passenger seat
Has ever looked this good to me
He tells me about his night
And I count the colors in his eyes

I slid into his father's Mercedes, it was almost 12. "Tonight was amazing." He looked at me. "She was amazing." I smiled half halfheartedly. "Good for you." His eyes were perfect.

He'll never fall in love he swears
As he runs his fingers through his hair
I'm laughing 'cause I hope he's wrong
And I don't think it ever crossed his mind
He tells a joke I fake a smile
That I know all his favorite songs and

"Never?" I looked at him. "Never. Love is overrated." He ran his fingers through his blond locks before putting his beanie on. I gave a small laugh, wishing he would see the way I look at him. He shrugged. "How's the Golden Boy? Still serious?" He tried to impersonate the Joker. I faked a smile. "You are so stupid." He laughed. "What ever, Trinity." I turned up the radio and Fall Out Boy's "Thnks fr th Mmrs" came on. "This is my favorite song." He said and started singing. "I know." I said queitly before joining in.

I could tell you his favorite colors green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His mother's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him, I'd lie

I sat on the living room floor, the Boys surrounding me. "Reid, your mother and I are going out." Joseph Garwin stepping in with Rose Garwin beside him. It wasn't the first time meeting them since I had known them since I was 11 ,but Ms. Garwin was very pretty and I noticed Reid had the same baby blue eyes his father had. "Don't break anything." She said before they walked out the front door.

He looks around the room
Innocently overlooks the truth
Shouldn't a light go on?
Doesn't he know I've had him memorized for so long?

He sees everything black and white
Never let nobody see him cry
I don't let nobody see me wishing he was mine

"Reid, you ok?" I walked into his room, because I heard muffled sobs. "Get out, Trinity." His father had just passed away and he was upset. "It's ok to cry." I told him as I sat beside him. "Garwin's don't cry." He looked up at me. His eyes red and puffy. "Can you go?" I nodded and left the room.

I could tell you his favorite colors green
He loves to argue, born on the seventeenth
His sister's beautiful, he has his father's eyes
And if you ask me if I love him, I'd lie

"Do you love him?" Kate asked me, as I watched Reid walk over to Baby Boy. I looked back at her. "No." The voice in my head said, "Liar!". Kate and Sarah looked at me skeptically. I shook it off.

He stands there then walks away
My God, if I could only say
I'm holding every breathe for you

I looked at the group and saw Sarah and Kate smiling at each other, knowing I had felt this way for a long time. Reid was looking down and I frowned.

He'd never tell you but he can play guitar
I think he can see through everything but my heart
First thought when I wake up is, "My god, he's beautiful"
So I put on my make up and pray for a miracle

"Trinity, I wanna show you something." I walk in his dorm to see him with a guitar. "You play the guitar?" He smiled and nodded. "Do the guys know?" He shook his head. I smiled. "Play something.." I sat next to him as he played a song.

Yes, I could tell you his favorite colors green
He loves to argue oh and it kills me
His mothers beautiful he has his father's eyes
And if you asked me if I love him
If you ask me if I love him, I'd lie

I stood up as the cheers irrupted from the crowd. I fought the overwhelming urge to cry, knowing he didn't feel the same way. I put my guitar away, building up the courage to walk towards them. Caleb smiled at me and I finally walked over there. "That was great, Trin." He hugged me. "Thanks." I looked at Reid and he gave me a small smile. "Can I talk to you really quick?" Reid took my hand and led me to a secluded part of the bar. "How long have you liked me?" He asked me. I looked down. "Since I was 13." He lifted my chin up and kissed me.
