Keely's fans cheered as her band walked on stage, the crowd was huge making Keely's butterflies rise in her stomach. This was what she had imagined her whole life; she knew this moment would come. She stood in the middle of the stage, waved at her fans in every direction. She could hear her music playing, the one she made. She tapped her toes, her hands, and her head and sang…
You want to know how I, Keely Teslow, became this way. How my life changed forever over one measly mistake that happened a long time ago. Well, here was the story.
I was in college with Phil, Tia and Seth. I never knew we could stay together this long, first we were in high school then we graduated, and then we all got scholarships to many colleges. I thought we would separate by then, but we ended up in the same college, it was like fate and luck were on my side that time. We weren't all that different.
Tia was still a shopaholic, with her normal black-brown hair and great clothes. Seth had changed a lot though; he became a hottie after Tia's makeover, his hair was shorter, his chest was wider and he wore different clothes. Phil was slightly different; he grew 5 inches taller, and had broader shoulders. As for me, I was just a normal me, just a bit different.
Then one day, Phil and I were in this big auditorium where we took a class. We were going to sit in our usual place when we saw some people sitting in it; obviously these guys were new, because everyone had their seat. They even write their names on it.
I walk up to them and say, "Um… you two better get out of our seats, because this is our spot."
The 1st guy looked like a strong, buff man. He wore a tight shirt that showed off his 6-pack and bulging muscles, he stood up, "What'cha going to do about it sweet cheeks?" I could see Phil flinch at what he called me, I knew he liked me. I just didn't want to shove it in his face that I knew, I didn't know what to do when I knew Phil liked me, but I just tried to keep my cool. Now back to the guys, I tried to keep from having a fight but I couldn't so I said, "I'm going to break a nail!" I shouted, and everyone turned around.
"Huh?" The guy was a bit confused, and I slapped him in the face. Unfortunately the professor came in at that exact time.
"Ms. Teslow, Mr. Diffy!" I spun around and saw him, "You know better than to punch a new colleague student, and Mr. Diffy, you know better than to encourage this!"
I stepped up, "But sir, Phil didn't do anything!" I looked at the whole class, they were staring at me.
"Ms. Teslow you shall be scrubbing the floors of this classroom after class, with Mr. Diffy accompanying you!"
"But sir…"
"Not one word out of you! Be here after class!" I sighed and slumped into my seat, I couldn't believe Phil didn't say anything to back me up, but I was really happy he would be helping me with the scrubbing, he must have the wizard thingamabobber with him.
After class, I rolled up my sleeves, got out the mop and bucket from the janitor's closet, and I was about to start but… "Sorry I didn't back you up Keel," I turned around and saw Phil staring at the floor, then at me, then at his shoes. Phil was different once he started liking me; he wasn't so spontaneous and enthusiastic anymore.
I smiled, "That's fine… hey do you have the wizard thingamabob to clean this place or something else?"
"Sorry Keel," he turned his pockets inside out, "I'm all dust! Since we need to get this whole floor scrubbed," He turned around and stretched out his arms, "let's get to work." I knelt down rolled up my sleeves a second time and pushed a sponge into the soapy water, I wished I had a mop, but this was all I could get out of the janitor's closet. I started scrubbing the floor, unsure if I was doing it right. A few minutes later, my back started to ache, I wished I had my guitar so I could take break, but I didn't, it was like Phil could read my mind, because he just sang something from a band…
Phil:
Hey
Is there something I can do?
You broke your heart in to
Many pieces
Now you gotta put it back again
Now when you're trying to make it through
And you're feeling kinda blue
I'll be there to tell you
That things will change
And I just sang the second verse…
Me:
When you turn around
All the tears will dry
Whatever was lost
Will be found
In the blink of an eye
Phil:
When you're losing ground
Hold your head up high
Whatever was lost
Will be found
In a blink of an eye
Me:
Hey I know I should be sinking deep
I know I ought to weep
Like a baby
But it's really not that bad
Phil:
Cause when my heart was achin'
When my world was shakin'
You were there to tell me
That things will change
Me:
I thought my heart was on the mend
Now I'm falling for a friend
Someone who was there for me
When things were changing
In the blink of an eye
Everything changes
In the blink of an eye
What's lost will be found
When you turn around
All the tears will dry
Whatever was lost will be found
And what happened accidentally, which I thought was planned, was that we kissed before that last line. We must have scrubbed forward into each other and kissed, but I didn't care, it beat all the guys I've kissed in the years. I picked my soapy hand from the scrubber and put it on Phil's cheek. When we separated, I just sang the last line softly without even knowing it.
In a blink of an eye…
Then we heard someone clapping in a beat just by the door, "Wonderful, just wonderful!" It was a guy in a brown tuxedo.
We both stood up embarrassed, Phil dropped his scrubber and wiped the foamy soap from his cheek.
"This is the kind of talent we need at the studio!"
I lit up, "Studio?"
"Yeah," he came to us with his hands jammed in his pockets, and he took out his hand to shake mine, and I took it, "The name is Arnold, and I work for a studio. My job is to find future singers and bands and actors and actresses for movies and such. And I have an idea for the two of you."
A/N: Just rereading this makes me feel like a cheese pizza! lol.
I DON'T OWN THE SONG OR PHIL OF THE FUTURE! OTHERWISE I WOULDN'T BE HERE MAKING FANFICTION, I WOULD BE AT A STUDIO WRITING SCRIPTS OR SOMETHING LOL.
