I feel as if I'm drowning in words that I can't collect and make a proper sentence with. With all these random thoughts in my head, laughing at me, keeping me from doing my work. It's all hanging above my head, just far enough so I can't reach. What do they call this? Writer's block? Levi would just laugh at me never having dealt with this before. Though in my defense Simon and Bast catch the words for me and help me spin them into an amazing fanfiction! The words just flow out of me and into my computer.
I should probably explain. My fiction professor decided to give me an assignment and this time it's on drumroll please: Decoding Songs! She's trying to get me a little less into the whole "Fanfiction thing" (as she liked to call it). Apparently I have to "find meaning in other things" so I can "write something for someone else to find meaning in". I don't understand her. The song she gave me was Demons by Imagine Dragons. How am I supposed to do this?
Ugh…the nausea is back… Maybe I should take a walk. Yeah that sounds like a good idea. I will go to the bathroom splash some water on my face and come back. Damn…now I have to get changed… Actually maybe I will just put on a bra and some slippers. As I try to open the door I realize there's a person in front of it. Levi…
"Levi? Can you move?" I call to him hoping he can hear me.
"Oh yeah sure, Cath. Sorry I didn't know you were in there…" He said back to me. I could almost her the smile in his voice. Then again he never stops smiling.
I hear him get up and move out of the way, so I open the door.
"I'm just going to the bathroom for a second. You can stay in the room until I get back." I said meeting his gaze and leaving the door open as I step out.
"Nah. I will wait till you come back." He replied giving me a bigger smile than he had on before.
Knowing if I don't leave now I may never get to splash my face, I quickly turn towards the bathroom and walk off.
~5 minutes later~
One more splash then I will go back. Why does he always come at the worst of times? Wait…Maybe he can help me somehow…I walk out of the bathroom and find him leaning beside my dorm room waiting for me. My heart is racing. Damn it why is he so cute? I can't like him… he's my roommates boyfriend… I think. Now we are both standing out my dorm room like idiots. What should I say…?
"Hello again." He said before I could luckily " Can I come in now?"
"Yeah. Yeah." I replied as I opened the door "I'm working on something though so don't bug me."
"Ooh is it a new chapter for your fanfiction?" He said eagerly
"No it's an assignment. I have to decode Demons by Imagine Dragons…" I said making sure to show the disappointment in my voice
"Can I help? I'm pretty good with that." He asked earnestly
"Maybe. What do you think it's about?" I said trying not to seem desperate
He thought for a moment before answering "I think it's about how this guy who wants to hide his loved one from all the darkness in the world but he is also part of that darkness and doesn't know what to do about it. Therefore he has to separate himself from them."
I didn't know what to say. I didn't even notice my jaw hanging open. He started to laugh at my expression. Was it that simple?
"Tell me if you need to help decoding anything else, okay?" He said with a big grin on his face.
