Day 6
Kagome stuffed items into her large yellow rucksack, shuddering. Excitement coursed through her veins as she zipped up her bag and set down another one with a tent inside.
"Finally. Tomorrow night, I'm finally gonna see it." Kagome hummed, pulling out her phone. She stared before glancing at her tent. "Hmm. It can fit five more people. Why not?" Smiling, Kagome quickly dialled for the first person that came to her mind, which happened to be Rhydian.
"Yeah?"
"Hey, Rhydian." Kagome softly blushed, rocking back and forth on her heels to her toes. "I was just wondering, since I have room for five more people in my tent, if you wanted to come along tomorrow night! I'll be inviting Tom, Shannon and Maddy, too!"
"Well, no need to call them. They're with me right now. Hang on a second." Rhydian replied, making Kagome nervously fiddle with the edge of her green shirt. "Well, sure! We'd all love to go!"
"Great!" Kagome's eyes shone brightly. "Thank you so much! I'm so excited that you're coming! Bye!" Hanging up, Kagome's blush worsened and she squealed quietly. Then, Kagome realised how she was acting and blinked. "Why am I acting so weird? Is it... that I like Rhydian?" Kagome thought for a bit, touching her warm cheeks. "Oh, crap, I do, don't I?" Kagome's eyes widened and she hurried downstairs to find her mother.
"Kagome!" Kun-loon smiled, walking over to her daughter, who fiddled with her fingers.
"Mum, how can you tell... if you like someone?" She asked shyly, her cheeks tinting pink. Kun-loon blinked before laughing softly.
"Is this about that Rhydian boy?" She asked, making Kagome blush brighter before nodding. "Well, follow your heart. It will tell you what you want. What is it saying?"
"My heart's saying that..." Kagome thought of Rhydian and her chest tightened, her heart beating quickly. "Even if I just think about him, it's going crazy. I think... It's saying I deeply care for him." She said honestly, making Kun-loon smile wider.
"You do like him." Kun-loon patted Kagome on the shoulder. She hummed, glancing behind her.
"I'm just going to go out for a bit." Kagome grabbed a bag and strapped it to her back. "I'm going to play." She headed out of her house and into the forest to find a nice little place to sit. Settling on a log, Kagome unzipped the bag and pulled out a blue guitar. Smiling, she set it in position and tuned it up. Strumming some chords, Kagome nodded in satisfaction before singing and playing her guitar.
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, oh
Make me your radio
Turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
If I was just another dusty record on the shelf
Would you blow me off and play me like everybody else?
If I asked you to scratch my back, could you manage that?
Like it read well, check it Liz, I can handle that
Furthermore, I apologize for any skipping tracks
It's just the last guy that played me left a couple cracks
I used to, used to, used to, used to, now I'm over that
Cause holding grudges over love is ancient artifacts
If I could only find a note to make you understand
I'd sing it softly in your ear and grab you by the hand
Just keep it stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune
And know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh, oh
Make me your radio
Turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh to sing along to my stereo
If I was an old-school fifty pound boombox
Would you hold me on your shoulder, wherever you walk
Would you turn my volume up in front of the cops
And crank it higher everytime they told you to stop
And all I ask is that you don't get mad at me
When you have to purchase mad D batteries
Appreciate every mixtape your friends make
You never know we come and go like on the interstate
I think I finally found a note to make you understand
If you can hit it, sing along and take me by the hand
Just keep me stuck inside your head, like your favorite tune
You know my heart's a stereo that only plays for you
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh oh
Make me your radio
Turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh to sing along to my stereo
I only pray you'll never leave me behind
Because good music can be so hard to find
I take your hand and pull it closer to mine
Thought love was dead, but now you're changing my mind
My heart's a stereo
It beats for you, so listen close
Hear my thoughts in every note
Oh oh
Make me your radio
Turn me up when you feel low
This melody was meant for you
Just sing along to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh, oh oh oh oh to my stereo
Oh oh oh oh to sing along to my stereo
Kagome stopped when she suddenly heard light clapping. Quickly, she looked up and blushed at Rhydian, Maddy, Tom and Shannon.
"H-how long were you guys there?" She asked, staring at them.
"A bit. We saw you heading this way and we followed you." Maddy smiled a bit. "You're really good."
"Oh, thanks. I have been practicing since I was... 5 so 1, 2... 11 years." Kagome smiled back, putting away her guitar. She zipped it up, slowly standing up. Rhydian slowly walked over, watching her with a small grin. Kagome looked back at him, her cheeks dusted pink. They stared for a while before Tom cleared his throat, causing the two to shyly look away and Shannon and Maddy to laugh. Kagome laughed awkwardly, holding her guitar close.
"Umm, hey, we were headed the Kafe. Wanna come along?" Rhydian asked. Kagome hummed in thought before nodding.
"Sounds like fun! Let's go!" She smiled quickly grabbing ahold of Rhydian's right arm which she interlocked with her left before grabbing Maddy. Tom and Shannon laughed at how happy Kagome was. Kagome looked at her cousin, smiling before the other two joined in, Tom linking up with Rhydian and Shannon linking with Maddy and they headed off.

Me: I am so sorry for the really really really REALLY long wait! I don't know what to say except from I'm sorry!
