They had bound and gagged the partners. They had driven them to an old abandoned building. The people of the town called it "Little Fifteen".
They had left them there alone. He would help her forget where they were by telling her stories from his childhood. He made her forget what used to be too. He wasn't a part of her world. Not yet. If he could get away, he would take her to a happier place. To the better days that existed only in his mind. She loses herself in his smile. And through that smile, she escaped "Little Fifteen", just for a while.
Little fifteen.
You help her forget.
The world outside.
You're not a part of it yet.
And if you could drive.
You could drive her away.
To a happier place.
To a happier day.
That exists in your mind.
And in your smile.
She could escape there.
Just for a while.
Little fifteen.
Why should they think about the bad times that they were having in "Little Fifteen"? Their kidnappers were providing them with food and everything they needed to live. They were trying to drive them crazy by keeping them locked up until they gave away information. But why think about the bad things? They had each other. That was more than most people on the outside world had.
When things were okay on the outside world, he could barely keep his hands off her. She knew that his mind wasn't like others. He still believed in love. More strongly than anybody else, his faith in love would never fade.
She noticed that he liked the unusual things about her. Her father had asked once if he understood her. Her father had know that he did, but he was surprised that sometimes he was clueless. How she couldn't believe in love, he didn't understand. He did his best to show her. He didn't understand her scientific mumbo jumbo. He imagined someday he'd understand her mind more, once he'd know loss and seen innocent victims more. He would understand, once they were out of "Little Fifteen".
Little fifteen.
Why take the smooth with the rough?
When things run smooth,
It's already more than enough.
She knows your mind
Is not getting bleak
With the rest of the world.
And its little intrigues
Do you understand?
Do you know what she means?
As time goes by
And when you've seen what she's seen.
You will
Little fifteen
Why did she have to be so defensive about her heart? Why did she hide how she felt? Why did she pretend she didn't love him? She hasn't ever had a good life. Everything in her life had been near misses. Her perfect life until her family left. Her and Sully working out until he decided to leave on a ship. Maybe if she had three wishes her life would be better. She wanted to see through his eyes, to be able to love. She wanted his charm smile which would make anybody convinced of anything she wanted to do. She sometimes wanted him to surprise her by kissing her randomly, without reason. Every now and then, she wanted to be him.
Little fifteen.
Why does she have to defend?
Her feelings inside?
Why pretend?
She's not had a life.
A life of near misses.
Now all that she wants.
Is three little wishes.
She wants to see with your eyes.
She wants to smile with your smile.
She wants a nice surprise.
Every once in a while.
She wants to see with your eyes.
She wants to smile with your smile.
She wants a nice surprise.
Every once in a while.
But at the time, they were stuck in an old abandoned building.
Little fifteen.
My stupidest fic ever!
