Chapter Four: Hearing Her Sing

Troy's POV (for now)

We walked into the recording studio to find couches and a door leading to the actual place where you sing. "Ok everyone. Vanessa is first to sing. Here is the song" He handed her a paper which was actually the song. "Umm…"

"It's ok Vanessa. Go first." Ashley said encouraging her friend.

I looked over her shoulder and the song was titled, 'When There Was Me and You.' "But - But I-" Vanessa stammered. "Whenever you are" The recorder said and at down at his seat. Kenny handed her the special recording earphones. She sighed. "Fine" She said and looked at me and smiled. She walked into the room and put the paper (song) on the podium thing. I sat down on the couch next to Corbin and watched her. I saw she took another sigh and put the earphones on. She took a deep breath and started to sing.

It's funny when you find yourself
Looking from the outside

I sat there in amazement, she had the most amazing voice in the world.


I'm standing here but all I want
Is to be over there
Why did I let myself believe
Miracles could happen
Cause now I have to pretend
That I don't really care


I looked at Corbin, who was looking at me, in amazement as well. "Wow" Corbin said. "I know" I said looking at Vanessa.


I thought you were my fairytale
A dream when I'm not sleeping
A wish upon a star
That's coming true
But everybody else could tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
When there was me and you

I swore I knew the melody
That I heard you singing
And when you smiled
You made me feel
Like I could sing along
But then you went and changed the words
Now my heart is empty
I'm only left with used-to-be's
Once upon a song

At that moment she looked at me and smiled. I smiled back.


Now I know your not a fairytale
And dreams were meant for sleeping
And wishes on a star
Just don't come true
Cause now even I can tell
That I confused my feelings with the truth
Cause I liked the view
When there was me and you

I can't believe that
I could be so blind
It's like you were floating
While I was falling
And I didn't mind

Cause I liked the view
Thought you felt it too
When there was me and you

She took off her "earphones" and walked out of the room. Everyone was in shock. Everyone was speechless. "Wow" Corbin managed to get out. "Wow is right!" Ashley blurted out. "What?" Vanessa asked smiling confusingly. "You have an amazing voice!" Lucas said. "Really? Thanks." She said smiling and walked over to me.

"Hi" She said sitting next to me. Wow. She does have a amazing voice. And I mean amazing. "Zac?"

"Yeah? Oh hey." I said coming back from my little thought bubble. "Are you ok?" She said giggling. "Yeah. Fine. Why?" I asked. "No reason." She said giggling. Wow. She laughs so cute. And well she is cute too. "Well, you have an amazing voice" I said looking her in her brown eyes. "Thanks." She said smiling. "Even Kenny is still I shock." I said pointing to Kenny, who looked speechless. She laughed. "Yeah, well, I didn't think I was that good." She said laughing. "Well you are." I said smiling at her. She blushed and smiled.
