NATHAN CARTER ON THE LOOSE!!!!!!
Please be aware that he is capable of stripping in front of you.
Written In The Lyrics
Lily sat Indian style on the red couch in the underground. She peeled back the fabric from a small rip in the cloth as she brainstormed ideas for her song in progress. She couldn't understand why she had developed such a strong passion for Travis Strong. The page in front of her was blank and it felt like she would never find an inspiration. Her guitar teachers' voice rang in her ears,
"Don't stare at a blank page. EVER. Write about what's around you; write anything! It might not be great at first, but you'll get going and soon you'll be writing what you really want to say. But don't let yourself stare at nothing. Nothing produces nothing."
Lily sighed. Writing was a way of expressing herself. Now she wanted to get everything out of her system, especially what she felt towards Travis. But she was too confused and distracted to write.
Twenty minutes later and her notebook page had filled with chaos and illegible scribbles. She took a deep breath and slowly started singing the first line of her song.
I wish I could say what I wanted to...
Lily heard footsteps coming down the stairs. She could see through the little window that it was the figure of Travis. She slumped against the back of the couch and tucked her writing notebook securely into her backpack.
"Lily?" After Travis spoke, the Underground was filled with uncomfortable silence once again.
Lily stood up reluctantly, unsure of what to do next. Her eyes followed Travis as he walked over to his station and sat down in his chair. He leaned forward on his elbows, watching Lily intently. They stared each other down until Lily finally looked away and blushed. She walked around the table and took her seat as well. There was a solid fifteen minutes before they show started, but five minutes passed as they sat in their usual Radio Free Roscoe positions.
Ray came down the steps bouncing a basketball. Robbie followed, but not as jumpily or excited as his friend. The show passed quickly and soon the last song of the day finished. Lily thought she had lost her chance to suggest Travis take her to help with the CPR class after school the next day.
"Travis, buddy, I know you would want me to go to the CPR class with you, but I just don't feel the same way."
Lily pushed Ray and he stumbled forward. He walked up the steps and out the door.
Both Lily and Travis were silent for a moment. It wasn't awkward silence like before. Lily smiled.
"I'll see you there after school tomorrow."
Travis simply nodded, and watched as Lily slowly trod up the stairs and out the door. Travis cautiously followed her, but stayed outside and waited for her to round the corner, out of sight to him. As she left, he heard her singing softly:
I wish I could say what I wanted to
Instead of shying away from you
I wanna be your girl
You make my thoughts swirl
I wanna have some real thrills
Won't you give me endless refills
Of your love
I want you to be my only sight
I want to be with you every night
I need you
And your love
Your love
