'Hey, Sel. It's me, Nick. Of course you know who this is.. unless you deleted my number, which I hope you don't. but yeah, umm, i'm at the beach, remember our first date? Good times, right? So, my album comes out today. Did you buy it? I understand if you don't want to. It's okay, I get it. I'm rambling. How are you doing?' the text read. I thought of what to say, and finally wrote,
'Hey Nick. I did buy your album, it's great! Who inspired most of your songs? Last time around is my favorite by far :) And I'm doing great' I replied. I sat there waiting, the nervous feeling coming back. Goodness, how long will my mother take in the house?
'That's awesome. Thank you for buying it. It means lot to me,Sel. Who inspired me? well, that's for me to know and for you to figure them out ;)' He replied. Oh nick, oh nick oh nick. Who inspired him? I'll find out later.
'Ah Nick, maybe I will find out. But not now, I have to go. Working on set today! TTYL!' I replied.
I had been sitting in the car, and didn't notice my mother come in. We were down the street from the studio. Buzzzzzzzzzz, buzz.
'Oh okay. Text me later. See you Sel' He replied. I sighed and put my phone in my purse.
"...Like you did last summer. When the grass was greener and you're hair was longer..." I sang with the song.
As we were getting out of the car, the last words I heard were 'If you become familiar with another in town, don't forget about the fun that we had last time around...'
I replayed those words in my head. As I had thought earlier those words meant something to me. I stopped where I was and tried to process my thoughts.
"No way!" I said to myself, "it just...it can't be." I merely said that to convince myself.
Last summer, I was with Nick. We had fun, no doubt about it. It was MY hair that was longer too. But then things had gone wrong. I turned to Taylor, and we became really close. But I never did forget what we had, I never forget Nick and I. I never have and will forget it.
Last Time Around is about me. Oh, Nick.
'Last Time Around is about me. us. our summer' I sent him a text. I walked ahead, waiting for his reply. Buzz buzz.
'Maybe Sel, maybe ;) ,' he replied.
