Chapter 6
"You want me to ride with you or am I takin my own car?" I asked Miley.
"It might be easier for ya to follow me, we're going back down to the lake." She smiles at me.
"Alright." I smile back. She gets in her car and I hear the bass start bumping as I get in my own car. I wonder what's going to happen. What if she tries kissing me? Wait, she's not even gay, and neither am I! I started following her and in no time we were back at the lake. She gets out of her truck and grabs two guitars out of her truck.
"I brought an extra one so you wouldn't have to keep switching back and forth with me." She says smiling at me.
"Oh, alright thanks." I said. Damn she won't be able to get close to me or wrap her arms around me to help.
"Ok, well I'm gonna teach ya how to play Slide by the Goo Goo Dolls, you ever heard it?"
"Yeah, it's actually one of my favorites."
"Good. So you're gonna put your fingers on string 5 fret 3, string 4 fret 2, and then last string 2 fret 3. Like this." And she did it herself. "Then you're going to pick strings 4, 3, 2 in that order." And she played it.
"Um… We could have problems." I laugh trying to position my fingers on the strings. "Ouch, this hurts!"
"Well did ya think it wasn't? You're pushing down on metal strings!" She laughs.
"Alright I got it."
"Now play the strings I told you to." I did as she said.
Doink, doink, doink.
"Umm,, that sounded like crap." I said looking at Miley who looks like she's about to explode.
"Hahahahahahaha, you're telling me. You're not pushing down hard enough on the strings."
"I think if I press any harder my fingers will bleed!"
"Oh quit complaining and do it!" Miley says laughing. So I try again and still failed.
"Ugh this sucks, will you just play it for me. Please?"
"Um, can I play you a different song that I made up?"
"Yes, please do." She starts strumming.
If you're going out, with someone new
I'm going out, with someone too
I won't feel sorry for me
I'm getting drunk but I'd much rather be
Somewhere with you
Laughing out loud on a carnival ride yeah
Drivin around, Saturday night
You made fun of me, for singing my song
Got a hotel room just to turn you on
Said pick me up at 3 AM
You're fighting with your mom again
That I'd go, I'd go
Somewhere with you yeah yeah
I won't sit
Outside your house
Wait for the lights to go out
Call up an ex
To rescue me
Climb in their bed
When I'd much rather sleep
Somewhere with you
Like we did on the beach last summer
When the rain came down and we took cover
Down in your car, out by the pier
You laid me down, whispered in my ear
I hate my life, hold on to me
If you ever decide to leave
Then I'll go, I'll go, I'll go
Somewhere with you
I can go out every night of the week
Can go home with anybody I meet
But it's just a temporary high
Cause when I close my eyes
I'm somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
If you see me
Out on the town
And it looks like
I'm burning it down
You won't ask
And I won't say
But in my heart, I'm always
Somewhere with you
Laughing out loud on a carnival ride
Driving around Saturday night
You made fun of me for singing my song
Got a hotel room just to turn you on
Said pick me up at 3 AM
Your fighting with your mom again
And I'd go, I'd go, I'd go
Somewhere with you
I can go out every night of the week
Go home with anybody I meet
But it's just a temporary high
Cause when I close my eyes
I'm somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
I'm somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
Somewhere with you
"Wow, that was deep." I said.
"Ha, um yeah I just came up with it one night at 3 in the morning, hence why it's in the song."
"Does it have some type of story behind why you wrote it?"
"Yeah, it does." She looks down. "I'll tell you some other time though, I promise."
"Oh, ok." I say. "Well, how bout I try again on Slide?"
"Yeah give it a try!" She says smiling at me. I tried playing again, and it still sounded like crap.
"Well I guess it's not gonna magically get better if I just pray for it to." I laugh.
"Well you can have that guitar and practice if you want."
"Really?"
"Yeah, we have like 20 at the house so it's no big deal."
"Wow, that's awesome! Thank you so much!"
"No problem. So Lily what're you doing on Friday night?"
"Um, nothing that I know of why?"
"Well you see, it's the first football game of the season, and football is really huge here in Texas, and I was wondering if you'd like to come with me." She says smiling.
"Yeah, that'll be fun, I've never been to a football game actually."
"Really? Wow, Cali must suck then. But after I'm planning to go to a club in Austin and meeting up with some friends there, you wanna come with me there also?"
"I would love to, but I'm only 17."
"Don't worry about it, I can get us in as 21."
"Um ok, yeah that sounds great. What would I need to wear?"
"We'll pick something out for you to wear out of my closent, and just tell your mom you're staying over at my house."
"Ok, cool." I say smiling.
"Well, I've gotta go home and take an ice bath, I'm sooooo sore, and tomorrow is gonna be just as bad, especially since we're going to the weight room in basketball. You might want to do the same thing."
"Yeah I probably will. But thanks for trying to teach me how to play, and thank you again for the guitar."
"No problem." She says getting up and offering me a hand up. The moment our hand touched I felt that same weird spark and jumped a little. We walked back to our cars and I put my guitar in the back seat.
"Well drive safe back home." I say to her.
"You too, I'll probably text you later if that's ok."
"Yeah that's fine, I've got stats homework so I'll be up for a little while."
"Ok, well drive safe Lil." She said as she got into her truck.
I got into my car and started driving home. I wonder what that song was about, or who it was about. She seemed so depressed. I wonder how much that song explains her. Poor thing, she must have been really hurt. What asshole would do that to her. She's so beautiful and amazing! I know I wouldn't do that to her! Lily, stop it! You can't think of her like that! No I'm just saying.. Stop now! Urrrgggggg! I turned on the radio to get my mind off of Miley and her song but her lyrics just kept going through my head.
I got home and made myself some ramen noodles and hopped in the shower. Like we did on the beach last summer when the rain came down and we took cover out in your car down by the pier laid me down whispered in my ear I hate my life hold onto me, if you ever decide to leave, I'll go, I'll go, I'll go, somewhere with you. What is that about? While I was in the shower all I could think about was the song . I got out and dried my hair so I wouldn't have to do anything in the morning but put clothes on and go. I grabbed my backpack and started working on my homework. Buzzzzz! I look at my phone.
"Hey you." It was from Miley.
"Hey, what're you doing?"
"Nothing, just laying in bed listening to my iPod… You?"
"Doing homework.. Blahhh.. What're you listening to?"
"Thompson Square- Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not… It's a great song! :)"
"Never heard it lol"
"I figured, it's country, I'm gonna have to make you start listening to it."
"Oh no, I'm gonna be country-ified!"
"Dang straight you are! Well hey I'm fixin to pass out so I'll see you tomorrow. Night Lily, sweet dreams! Don't stay up to late working on your homework."
"I won't, sleep tight Miley. Goodnight!" I put my phone on the charger and looked at the time. 10:03.. I'll go to bed at 10:15. Knock knock!
"Hey Lils, how was school today?" My mom asks coming into my room.
"It was good, I hung out with Miley after school today and she gave me her old guitar."
"That's great sweetheart, I'm glad you've made a friend. See I told you it wouldn't be that bad."
"Yeah, you're right. Oh hey is it ok if I spend the night at Miley's on Friday?"
"Yeah that's fine, just be home at a decent hour Saturday."
"Ok, well I'm going to go to bed. I love you mom."
"I love you too, night babygirl."
I got into bed and turned out my light. I wonder what my dreams will be tonight.
Song is Somewhere With You- Kenny Chesney…. Great song… Explains my life.. Once again sorry it sucks..
