Hey guys! This is my new story with songs by the Beatles. Sometimes, it'll be recognized that the song used is by the Beatles but other times they'll be "written by the characters". Do I make sense? I hope so...
1, 2, 3, 4!
I walked into "The Cave" with my best friend, Trish, by my side. I really wanted to go home, read or write something. "The Cave" is a restaurant where you can sing, which is awesome, but I really didn't feel like singing today. A blonde boy was in the stage, singing an awesome song and dancing incredibly well.
Well, she was just 17
You know what I mean
And the way she looked was way beyond compare
So how could I dance with another
When I saw her standing there
The song was pretty catchy. I found myself tapping my foot along with the beat thinking how do people come up with this lyrics?
Well she looked at me, and I, I could see
That before too long I'd fall in love with her
She wouldn't dance with another
When I saw her standing there
Trish and I found an empty table and we sat there, waiting for someone to take our orders.
"So, are you enjoying this?" She asked me, practically screamed at me.
"Yes, It's really fun!" I yell back. The music was so loud that it was barely possible for me to listen to whatever Trish said next. I only nodded and looked back towards the stage. The blonde guy took the microphone with him and left the stage, but he still was singing.
Well, my heart went "boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine...
He walked up to a redhead girl and started dancing with her.
Woah, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long I fell in love with her
Now I'll never dance with another
Since I saw her standing there
He left the girl and picked up another one, but this time, she was blonde. Wow this guy has talent.
Well, my heart went "boom"
When I crossed that room
And I held her hand in mine...
He left the girl and returned to the stage.
Woah, we danced through the night
And we held each other tight
And before too long I fell in love with her
Now I'll never dance with another
Since I saw her standing there
Since I saw her standing there
Since I saw her standing there (1)
The song finished and we all clapped loudly.
"Thank you!" The boy says through the mic and left the stage.
I turned to Trish and I noticed her eyes were wide open. "Wow that guy knows how to sing!"
"And dance." I corrected her she nodded and we went on with dinner. I man came and asked for our orders. I ordered a simple pasta while Trish chose something more sophisticated.
"So, this dinner is for?" I ask once the man left.
"This dinner is for you coming here and enjoying a little night with your best friend." She picked up her glass of water and clinked it with mine.
"You're being dramatic. I see you everyday at school and after school." I said giggling. She just shrugged in response. "Hey, I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be right back." She nodded and I stood up.
After getting to the bathroom, I knocked the door to see if there was someone, but apparently not. So I went inside and did my necessities and then walked out. Just as I stepped put I walk into someone.
"I'm sorry I wasn't looking where I was going." The person said. I looked up only to see the blonde boy who sang.
"Oh! No, I'm the one who should be sorry." I say. The boy smiled and started to walk past me. "Hey." I say turning to him. I turned around and looked at me. "You sing really well. And dance." I smile at him and he returned it.
"Thank you. I guess it's some sort of gift." He says and I chuckle a little.
"Then you should appreciate that 'gift'" I answered. He smiled and I smile back. "Well bye. I have to go and I guess you have to go to the restroom, so..."
"It was nice talking to you." He says. I thank him and go back to Trish.
"What took you so long?" She asked me once I got to our table, which had our ordered food placed in it.
"I walked into the singing boy and told him how well he sang and everything." I say simply. I couldn't wait to devour the food in front of me.
We ate in silence, enjoying every song that the people sang. They were all catchy and entertaining, but non of them were as fun as the one that the blonde guy sang. It was something different, something with a little more soul. I've never heard that song before, maybe he wrote it. He sang it with so much soul that I don't know what to say.
After we finished our meal, I insisted on paying but Trish kept on saying that she was the one who invited me so she had to pay. At the end, she ended up paying put I promised that the next time we went out to dinner, I was the one paying.
She took me home, I thanked her and we said our goodbyes. As I walked inside, I couldn't help but keep thinking about the blonde guy. I sat in my computer and typed "my heart went boom when I crossed that room." Nothing related to a song appeared. So, he wrote it. That's why he sang with so much passion.
I looked out of the window only to see another window. The house nest to mine was abandoned and it was kind of freaky sleeping next to the window that showed another window from that house, but I didn't really care. Who would want to live there? Next to a weird family who's father owned a music store, mother lived in Africa and daughter, me, wrote songs and worked with my dad for living.
