"We're going to L.A.," I whispered. The others just nodded. I felt so happy that I began to cry. I was finally able to see Alex again. It had been so long since I've seen my best friend, my safe harbor. I would get to see him again at last.
"Let's get going," Alice stated, "We've got a long way to go."
"I'm coming," I said. We all loaded onto the plane then. I sat right next to Alice and Jasper. I didn't care which seat that I took; I just didn't want the window seat. I don't think that I could go with looking out the window. That would mean that I definitely got sick.
I decided to take out my mp3 player and listen to music. There was a ton of songs that I could listen to, but I just wanted to listen to one: Memories by Within Temptation.
In this world you tried,
Not leaving me alone behind.
There's no other way,
I pray to the gods let him stay.
The memories ease the pain inside,
And now I know why.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments,
Imagine you being here.
All of my memories keep you near,
In silent whispers, silent tears
Made me promise I'd try,
To find my way back in this life.
Hope there is a way,
To give me a sign you're okay.
Reminds me again it's worth it all,
So I can go home.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent moments,
Imagine you being here.
All of my memories keep you near.
In silent whispers, silent tears.
Together in all these memories,
I see your smile.
All of the memories I hold dear.
Darling you know I'll love you,
Til the end of time.
All of my memories keep you near
In silent moments,
Imagine you being here.
All of my memories keep you near,
In silent whispers, silent tears.
All of my memories...
"That's a beautiful song," Jasper said after I was done listening to it.
"Within Temptation has wonderful songs to listen to," I stated.
"What was that one," he questioned.
"Memories."
"Is it your favorite?"
"One of them. I like a lot of them though. I could never pick favorites," I answered.
"What's another song that you like from Within Temptation," Alice questioned.
"I like all of them on the Silent Force CD really, but one of them would have to be Angels," I explained.
"What is that one about," Jasper questioned.
Sparkling angel I believe
You were my savior in my time of need.
Blinded by faith I couldn't hear
All the whispers, the warnings so clear.
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door.
There's no escape now,
No mercy no more.
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Sparkling angel, I couldn't see
Your dark intentions, your feelings for me.
Fallen angel, tell me why?
What is the reason, the thorn in your eye?
I see the angels,
I'll lead them to your door
There's no escape now
No mercy no more
No remorse cause I still remember
The smile when you tore me apart
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
This world may have failed you,
It doesn't give you reason why.
You could have chosen a different path in life.
The smile when you tore me apart.
You took my heart,
Deceived me right from the start.
You showed me dreams,
I wished they'd turn into real.
You broke a promise and made me realize.
It was all just a lie.
Could have been forever.
Now we have reached the end.
For the rest of the trip, Jasper and I talked about songs that I liked on my mp3 player. It was fun that he liked the songs that I liked, especially Within Temptation. Not any of my old friends liked it, but I did. It annoyed me sometimes that they would call me lame because of the music I liked and preferred. It's my chose, and they shouldn't have made fun of me for that.
We finally reached L.A., and I was excited and nervous at the same time. Alex and I both went through a lot of problems apart, and I didn't know how that was going to affect the relationship we had. I could make it grow stronger, but it also could tear us apart. That's what scared me the most.
We soon arrived at a beautiful house, and I was surprised by the size of it. It looked even bigger than Alex's old house. I didn't know how they knew where the house was, but I was glad that I was going to see Alex again, even if I was nervous.
I got out and the others followed suit. I didn't like to knock a lot because of I thought I'd get the wrong house or something, but I trusted Alice, and I knew that she wouldn't do that kind of thing to me. I already considered her as a friend, even though we only knew each other for a day.
We arrived at the front door. I took in a deep breath and knocked. I was nervous, and I could tell that Jasper knew it too. He sent me calming waves, and I smiled at him thanking him. I didn't know if I could handle this without it.
Soon, the front door opened to show the person that I wanted to see.
Author's Note: I do not own these lyrics. If you people do not know, there is an actual band called Within Temptation, and Memories and Angels are real songs. Silent Force is an awesome album, and I think that anyone who would like to read it would love it. I certainly do, but you don't need to buy it unless you don't want to. And I don't own Twilight either! I only own the characters: Kimberly, Alex, and--unfortunately--Tyler (yes, he is a player and a jackass). Thanks for all who are reading my story. I love the reviews that I'm getting also. I hope you enjoy more when it's updated. I'll try and update soon.
