Chapter 3
Pinky put on her best collar. It was really all she could think to wear besides her fedora to the dance tonight. It was only forty-five minutes away. Pinky, knowing Tara would want some help setting up, decided to leave right then. When she got there, she saw there were already some other agents helping. Perry was among them, making Pinky count her blessings that the other platypus had said she wasn't going to come. Pinky walked up to Perry, and said, "Hey" Perry looked at her, and smiled. "I guess, even if the new girl turned me down, you and me could dance, right?" he said. Pinky's heart skipped a beat. "Yeah, that'd be cool" she said nonchalantly. Perry smiled again. Tara stepped up to the microphone. It was time to start the party. "Hello, everyone. To kick off this night, I would like to sing a song that Pinky wrote, for Perry" shye said through the mic. Pinky was confused before she realized that she was going to sing the LOVE song she had wrote, for Perry. Before she could stop Tara, though, she heard a piano. Eventually, there was a violin. Pinky gulped as Tara began to sing.
She can't see the way your eyes,
Light up when you smile.
She'll never notice how you stop and stare,
Whenever she walks by.
And you can't see me wanting you the way you want her,
But you are everything to me.
And I just wanna show you,
She don't even know you,
She's never gonna love you like I want to.
And you just see right through me,
But if you only knew me,
We could be a beautiful,
Miracle,
Unbelievable,
Instead I'm just invisible.
There's a fire inside of you,
That can't help but shine through.
But she's never gonna see the light.
Not matter what you do.
And all I think about is how to make you think of me,
And everything that we could be.
And I just wanna show you,
She don't even know you.
She's never gonna love you like I want to.
And you just see right through me,
But if you only knew me,
We could be a beautiful,
Miracle,
Unbelievable,
Instead I'm just invisible.
Like shadows in a faded light,
Oh,
We're invisible.
I just wanna open your eyes and make you realise.
I just wanna show you,
She don't even know you,
Baby let me love you,
Let me want you.
You just see right through me,
But if you only knew me,
We could be a beautiful,
Miracle,
Unbelievable,
Instead I'm just invisible.
Oh yeah.
She can't see the way your eyes,
Light up when you smile.
By the time the song ended, Perry's eyes were wide. He couldn't believe Pinky really felt this way about him. Did he feel the same way? He looked towards her. 'She is beautiful, smart, funny... Woah. I... I love her' he thought. He grabbed Pinky by the shoulder, and spun her towards him. He leaned in, until their lips were touching. Pinky nearly had a heart attack, she was so surprised. When Perry pulled away, he looked at her as though she were the most amazing girl in the world. She was, in his opinion. "I love you" Perry uttered the three words Pinky had wanted to hear since she met him.
