As I pulled Carm to the theatre I knew exactly what I wanted to show her first. Before I acted though, I just turned to look into her eyes. She gave me a questioning glance, but instead of saying anything I simply laughed and shook my head. I didn't want to give away anything instantly, even if she gave me a look that made me reveal everything. It's weird that she's the only one that has ever made me feel like this. I get scared every time I'm with her because it shocks me on how she actually likes me. She's someone that I've never experienced before, and that's what scares me. That alone makes me want to do everything in my power to make sure I learn every little detail I can about her. Which is why I took her hear, to study where she would go. The only thing I knew that she didn't was that all the way in the back of the theatre was a huge library filled everywhere with ancient books. So I decided that I was going to leave the best surprise for last.
"Cupcake, why are we here? I mean this is a very gorgeous theatre and all, but I don't see exactly why they need a talent show in it. Or the fact why I'm here. I could be showing you all the great places here, and instead you're showing me to a place I have no interest in." I didn't want to show the hurt expression on my face, so I turned away quickly and walked to where the talent show was taking place. She, of course, followed in pursuit trying to turn me around. Too bad I got to the stage before she could even get to me. Jokes on her now, I guess. I just thought that bringing her hear would let me get to know her, instead she was acting tough again. Typical Carmilla. Well, at least now I can show her my singing talent. But I'm not going to be singing an original.
"Welcome again Laura! I thought you wouldn't be showing up again. It's a pleasure to see you again, but may I ask what brings you here?"
"Oh, Gregg. I'm here to sing once more, but this really is the final time that you will see me."
"Well, then make it your best please."
I searched for Carmilla amongst the crowd and was disappointed when I couldn't see her. Well, then I guess I'm just singing for me. Alone. Once again.
A drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven
I don't wanna waste the weekend
If you don't love me pretend
A few more hours then it's time to go
As my train rolls down the east coast I wonder how you keep warm
It's too late to cry
Too broken to move on
And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven
Misplaced trust in old friends
Never counting regrets
By the grace of God I do not rest at all
And New England as the leaves change
The last excuse that I'll claim
I was a boy who loved a woman like a little girl
And still I can't let you be
Most nights I hardly sleep
Don't take what you don't need from me
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my...
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Heaven doesn't seem far away anymore
No, no
Heaven doesn't seem far away
Oh, oh
It's just a drop in the ocean
A change in the weather
I was praying that you and me might end up together
It's like wishing for rain as I stand in the desert
But I'm holding you closer than most 'cause you are my heaven
You are my heaven
As the last note ended, I looked up out of breath and there stood Carmilla. She was the only person too shocked to even clap after I stopped singing. I took a note of that for later. When did she show up though? After my singing? She walked up on stage after she was over her shock and just stopped in front of me. Every just stopped clapping and was silent. I tried to look Carm in the eyes, but w as too afraid of what might be in them. She of course didn't like my decision and lifted up my chin.
"You are absolutely everything that I need in my life, Cupcake. No matter what anything thinks of us. I don't even care about those idiotic humans behind me gawking. My eyes are only for you. I apologize for my rudeness earlier, I should've given you more credit. Like you have done me. I may be older than you by hundreds, but I've never heard a livelier voice. I'm proud to be your girlfriend."
I tried to say something idiotic, but she kissed me with such passion that I had no idea how to respond. So I just gripped her sides tightly and pulled her closer to me. I was out of breath in mere seconds and looked into her eyes for the hundredth time it seems. Her eyes were closed, but opened seconds later.
"You are everything to me as well, and that's why I brought you here. I want to know everything about you. So let the next surprise begin."
