Chapter three =] it's a half a week late but I assume that's better then a month like I did last time. I'm sorry for that too like I said finals were killing me and now I'm being all super late and just now doing my college applications I am just a litttttttle bit over loaded. This chapter is going to come at you super short because 1. I'm in school and I only have like barley an hour to write this and 2. yeappp….same excuse =] I am a little sad I only got 2 reviews for the last chapter after I got like 11 for the first so I am a little disappointed. Think anyone can help out with that with some more reviews? Lol anyway so enough rambling on with the next chapter.

Chapter three: 1000 words

Celina

I closed my eyes and took a deep breath pulling my hair over my left shoulder as I exhaled. My usually untamable curly hair was straightened into a high ponytail and fell almost to my mid back. Its easy to forget how long your hair is when its always sprung into such tight curls. Soon the music started and I smiled. This song…I don't know how I came up with it but it always just felt right to sing. I guess in my imagination I always felt like there was someone out there who needed to hear it? I don't know, I just really really love this song. I opened my eyes.

I know that you're hiding things
Using gentle words to shelter me
Your words were like a dream
But dreams could never fool me
Not that easily

It just came to me one night I felt like I was longing for something and the words ended up spilling out onto my laptop. It didn't take much effort to come up with a harmony to match it since the melody of the song itself seemed to be almost enough.

I acted so distant then
Didn't say goodbye before you left
But I was listening
You'll fight your battles far from me
Far too easily

"Save your tears 'cause I'll come back"
I could hear that you whispered as you walked through that door
But still I swore to hide the pain when I turn back the pages
Shouting might have been the answer
What if I'd cried my eyes out and begged you not to depart?
But now I'm not afraid to say what's in my heart

Why was it that I felt like there was something in my heart that needed to be said? My heart swelled like it did every time I sang this song and it almost hurt. What is it my hearts been longing for so bad? Why cant I figure it out?

Though a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
Crossing over the time and distance holding you
Suspended on silver wings

And a thousand words
One thousand confessions
Will cradle you
Making all of the pain you feel seem far away
They'll hold you forever

I finally opened my eyes and I was a little surprised to see my vision was slightly blurry. This feeling…it was so much stronger today. Why? What could possibly have me feeling this way? I blinked away the blur and tried looking out into my audience. It always seemed like this song captivated them all every single time it was sung.

The dream isn't over yet
Though I often say I can forget
I still relive that day
You've been there with me all the way
I still hear you say

"Wait for me, I'll write you letters"
I could see how you stammered with your eyes to the floor
But still I swore to hide the doubt when I turn back the pages
Anger might have been the answer
What if I'd hung my head and said that I couldn't wait?
But now I'm strong enough to know it's not too late

I smiled when my vision cleared and I could see the awe on everyone's face. I loved being able to in trace them all with my voice and let them all float on their own little world even if it's just for a few short minutes. Suddenly as I was looking out into the crowd I saw a single tear and my body seemed to react on its own. I stepped closer to this audience member who was so close to the stage.

'Cause a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll fly to you
Even though I can't see, I know they're reaching you
Suspended on silver wings

Oh, a thousand words
One thousand embraces
Will cradle you
Making all of your weary days seem far away
They'll hold you forever

His strong brown eyes held mines in a trance and knelt by the stranger never forgetting a note as I reached out to him. I was singing to him almost no my heart was. I gently wiped the lone tear that fell from his beautiful eyes and smiled at him. I needed him to be okay.

Oh, a thousand words
Have never been spoken
They'll fly to you
They'll carry you home and back into my arms
Suspended on silver wings ohhhh

And a thousand words
Call out through the ages
They'll cradle you
Turning all of the lonely years to only days
They'll hold you forever
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
A Thousand Words

All of a sudden he grabbed my off the stage and my trace was broken.

"What the hell?" I yelled, "Get off me!" I screamed suddenly panicked. What had just happened? Why is everything so fuzzy and why did this man instance me so much? I stared pushing myself away as I looked around waiting for security to hurry and get here. I noticed two girls staring at me and two taller and bigger guys doing the same. What's their deal? Don't they see I need help?

"Vincent!" I screamed feeling so cornered. Why wasn't anyone helping me! Suddenly I was yanked away and pulled into a much familiar pair of arms.

"if you don't want a death wish I suggest you get the hell out of here" Vincent hissed holding me close to him. I couldn't help but cling to his body. I already knew he was back stage so he had run right across the stage and into the crowd to get me and my security guards were just getting here. Vincent was really my knight in shinning armor. I looked back to the stranger and he seemed angry, hurt, and very much confused but the two big guys around him took his arms and started leading him away.

"c'mon Seth lets go" one said and the two pretty girls followed them out but he kept looking back at me…those eyes.

Yes yes very super short and it was a little impulsive but I wanted them to have some sort of contact. I didn't want it to be like the hunted where it took foreverrrrr for Seth and Lina to kick it lol im not saying their falling in love by chapter four not at allll I'm just introducing them to eachother =]
