Chapter Two
Feeling Weightless
As the cheers from the crowd died down, Jaden grinned at Aster, who nodded to him.
Jaden looked down at the front and saw that Alexis looked shocked, presumably by their musical skills, and that even Zane looked surprised.
Jim was grinning at Hasselberry encouragingly - they had become great friends during Jim's time at Duel Academy. Axel, like Zane, was showing very little reaction to the music, but Jaden could tell that he was impressed. Syrus was smiling, so was everyone. They actually liked the music!
Even Jaden didn't know Jaden could sing! Everyone was loving it.
Not that the brunette cared very much about anyone's opinion of his voice except for that one person.
His friends support meant a lot to him, but Jesse's support was vital.
And all that mattered to Jaden was that Jesse was smiling encouragingly at him.
Both Aster and Chazz, either side of the brunette, nodded to Jaden. That was all the signal Jaden needed for beginning to sing the lyrics of the next song.
As the brief instrumentals before the lyrics began, the brunette took a deep breath, and then started to sing the next song.
Manage me, I'm a mess
Turn a page, I'm a book
Half unread
I wanna be laughed at
Laughed with, just because
I wanna feel weightless
And that should be enough
But I'm stuck in this fucking rut
Waiting on a second hand pick me up
And I'm over, getting older
If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old
Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here
Make believe that I impress
That every word
By design
Turns a head
I wanna feel reckless
I wanna live it up, just because
I wanna feel weightless
Cause that would be enough
If I could just find the time
Then I would never let another day go by
I'm over, getting old
Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here
This could be all that I've waited for
(I've waited, I've waited for)
And this could be everything
I don't wanna dream anymore
Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year
And I've been going crazy
I'm stuck in here
Maybe it's not my weekend
But it's gonna be my year (it's gonna be my year)
And I'm so sick of watching while the minutes pass as I go nowhere (go nowhere)
And this is my reaction
To everything I fear (everything I fear)
Cause I've been going crazy I don't want to waste another minute here
Jaden took another deep breath, vaguely winded, as the other three band members finished off the last instrumental notes.
Once again, everyone erupted into applause, more enthusiastically this time. Some people, including some of his friends, were on their feet and cheering.
Jaden grinned at everyone, but especially at Jesse.
He was finally getting into the idea of music.
Jesse gave him the thumbs up when he noticed the brunette was staring straight at him. Jaden gulped and then decided to make a bit of a bold move. Who was going to know who it was aimed at anyway, except for who it was intended for?
He blew a kiss to the bluenette.
Jesse looked mildly shocked for a moment, and then smiled softly and nodded.
The song is "Weightless" by All Time Low
