MizFortune's take on...the iPod Shuffle Challenge!
I know this is only five, but, as of this moment, I have no more time to spare.
I promise to update this as soon as humanely possible.
I also don't own any of the songs featured in this challenge.
Angels by Vanessa Hudgens
Sky/Syd
She was waiting there, in the all-white room, complete with all-white furniture. She seemed out of place there, in her pink outfit.
Why she was there? Well, her angel, the love of her life, was talking to his mother. They're engaged now, you see- he proposed to her only a week ago, against the wishes of his mother, apparently.
The sound of their bickering echoed all across the room, and into her brain. She didn't let them get into her, however.
She wasn't even supposed to fall in love with him. She was supposed to be fighting evil, but, here she was, defying all the rules, loving an angel.
She knew her blue angel would come through for her.
I'm With You by Avril Lavigne
Bridge/Z
The rain was cold, and she didn't have an umbrella. Where is he?
She's been waiting there for an hour, and it was getting old. She thought she heard footsteps, but they didn't belong to anyone. She shivered as the wind intensified, and rubbed her hands against her bare arms.
Suddenly, the rain stopped- around her, at least. She looked up and saw an umbrella over her head. He was here.
She accepted his outstretched arms and allowed him to lead her somewhere new. When they did arrive, all he said was, "Welcome home."
Hot N Cold by Katy Perry
Sky/Syd
"Ugggh!!! I hate him so much!" she exclaimed, her head in her hands. "Why does he keep changing his mind?" she asked, pacing around. "I mean, one day, it looks like he likes me, then the next day, he doesn't!" She plopped down on a nearby couch and asked, "What do you think, Peanuts?"
She hasn't always been like this. She used to be composed, graceful, and practically perfect in every way.
Until he showed up. She doesn't exactly have an explanation, but the man with the sky blue eyes did something to her that day, the first time they met.
Since then, all she could do was obsess, erm, think intensively, about him.
He could do and say no wrong, and, despite all their fights, she loves him more than anything.
Drive by Vanessa Hudgens
Mack/Rose
She knows she doesn't know everything. She doesn't know how to live forever. She doesn't know how she ended up here, back at the London Institution, as a teacher. She doesn't know why all she could do was think of him.
So, here she was, on her silver Volvo, driving aimlessly around town.
She knew what she was looking for wasn't in town, in the country, in this continent, even. He was at his mansion in San Angeles, California.
She tried to keep her eyes on the road as she felt her stomach flutter like it did every time she thought of him- his curly chestnut-colored locks, that beautiful smile, and those deep, golden brown eyes.
A light was red. She stopped.
It turned green a minute and thirty seconds later, but she didn't go. Horns beeped and drivers looked out the window to shout, but all she heard was a voice, one that she's longed to hear for what seemed like an eternity, call out and ask, "Rose?"
Teardrops on my Guitar by Taylor Swift
Sky/Syd
"There's this girl, she's kind, caring, beautiful, funny, and smart- she's the one, Syd. I know she is," Sky Tate admitted.
Sydney faked a smile. She didn't want to ruin Sky's moment by crying her heart out at this very moment. He didn't need to know that she was dying inside, hearing him describe his dream girl.
"I'm sure you guys would be great together," she said, smile still on her face. It was starting to really hurt. She had to get out of there before the tears come. She excused herself and walked away casually, until she was out of Sky's view, then ran, ran, ran, all the way to her room, and cried.
As she wallowed in self pity, she spied her guitar through her tears and picked it up. She started strumming without a beat. She let her heart do the strumming, and, minutes late, the singing.
She put every ounce of feeling she could in to that song. The way she felt when Sky said he found the perfect girl, when she would hear a love song and sing along, thinking of him, the way everything else becomes part of the background when she looks at him.
She would wish upon stars ever night, hoping that her wish would come true.
That girl must be very pretty, she thought. She had better take care of Sky, love him with all of her heart. Like I do.
She sadly put down the guitar and, unintentionally, looked at the picture of Sky. He was smiling, a rare time.
Maybe, someday, she would get over this, and, in time, she would be able to pick up the pieces of her broken heart.
There you are, a look at what a demented author listens to.
Please, please, review. They bring color to my otherwise black and white world.
The next five will be coming along soon.
