After dinner, Jake leaves. I go upstairs and turn on the water and jump in the shower. As I stand there with the water running over my body, I think about that thought that I had at dinner. There is no way that I could like Jake as anything more than a friend, right?
"No way." I say out loud to myself. I brush that thought out of my mind and start to sing.
"If you can see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time how could you not know
Baby, you belong with me
You belong with me
Oh, I remember you drivin' to my house in the middle of the night
I'm the one who makes you laugh
When you know you're about to cry
And I know your favorite songs
And you tell me about your dreams
I think I know where you belong
I think I know it's with me
Can't you see that I'm the one who understands you
Been here all along so why can't you see
You belong with me
Standing by and waiting at your back door
All this time
How could you not know
Baby you belong with me
You belong with me
You belong with me
Have you ever thought just maybe
You belong with me
You belong with me"
I stop singing and turn the water off. I jump in bed and fall asleep immediately.
