Chapter 5
Dru's POV
(After School)
"Wow, your house is huge!" Marcus exclaims mesmerized by the large house. "Yeah, well our dad IS Donald davenport. " chase replies. "So, lets start practice." Adam encourages the two boys. "Wait, before you guys start, can I sing for you and see what you think? "Dru, you sing?" Leo asks. "Yeah. I'm not that good though." I answer quietly. "I'm sure you are. Just give it a try." Marcus says to me. "O-ok. " I set up the microphone stand and plug the cord into the amp. I close my eyes. Taking a deep breath, I start to sing.
I'd like to say we gave it a try
I'd like to blame it all on life
Maybe we just weren't right, but that's a lie, that's a lie
And we can deny it as much as we want
But in time our feelings will show
'Cause sooner or later
We'll wonder why we gave up
The truth is everyone knows
Almost, almost is never enough
So close to being in love
If I would have known that you wanted me
The way I wanted you
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each other's arms
And we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough
If I could change the world overnight
There'd be no such thing as goodbye
You'd be standing right where you were
And we'd get the chance we deserve
Try to deny it as much as you want
But in time our feelings will show
'Cause sooner or later
We'll wonder why we gave up
The truth is everyone knows
Almost, almost is never enough (is never enough, babe)
We were so close to being in love (so close)
If I would have known that you wanted me the way I wanted you, babe
Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
But right here in each other's arms
And we almost, we almost knew what love was
But almost is never enough
(Song over)
I look over at the boys, seeing their starstruck faces makes me blush. " yeah, I'm not that good." I say with my head down. " YOUR IN!" They all say at the same time. "Okay, thanks" I say with a smile.
