Callie's POV
After Brandon left I couldn't help but think "He called it our song?!" My head was down but I could see a pair of feet coming towards me and they stop and the person sits down next to me. I look up to see Lou sitting next to me.
I had a feeling she had been watching us. This was confirmed when she said in a small voice "I'm sorry".
I couldn't believe it, first Lou was being nice then she apologized. She was different then what she makes people think of her.
Instead of yelling at her for eavesdropping, I softly cried into my hands. She rubbed my knee and when I had stopped she asked "Do you want to talk about it?" In that moment I started talking a mile a minute.
Lou's POV
Callie told me everything about her and Brandon. I had no idea they had dated never mind liked each other! She told me about living independently and about when they broke up. She smiled sadly whenever she came up on their best moments wistfully.
I heard the back door open and watched Callie as she hurriedly grabbed ten tissues and padded her eyes with them.
She let out a sigh of relief when her brother came out. Sorry, I don't know his name. He looked over, seeming concerned. I took that as my time to go find the band. I gave Callie my regards and left awkwardly.
Jesus' POV
As I walked into the house I noticed Callie hurrying to wipe her eyes. She looked up and when she saw me she sighed in relief probably thinking I was someone else, but who? And was she crying because of them?
I didn't notice Lou until she left. I took her place on the couch looked at Callie expectantly, waited for her to explain her sadness. But when that didn't come I simply asked her. "Hey, what's wrong?"
Her head slumped and after brainstorming possible ideas I figured out the most probable answer. "Did you and Jude get into a fight?"
She shook her head. Then I didn't get it. If she wasn't in a fight with Jude then I had no idea what it could be. Maybe it was problems with group? Or had a fight with Mariana or moms?
I didn't have time to ask these though since she got up and headed up the stairs. She mumbled something about having to do homework. Which I knew was an excuse, since it was the weekend but I didn't push it.
Her voice seemed cracked and that's when I knew why she had been crying.
I quietly walked up the stairs and noticed her sitting next to his door. Fresh tears glistened her eyes as her eyes darted between the door and the adjacent wall as if trying to decide whether she should go in or not. Instead of talking, to her I went to go clean up the party. I glanced between Callie and the door, she didn't even see me, and thought sadly to myself "Somethings never change."
Brandon's POV
I sat in my room and glanced at the blank music sheet in front of me. I had so many things to say that I couldn't even imagine putting them into one song. On the corner of the paper I drew a heart and wrote C Q A-F. Angry, I pressed the eraser of the short pencil firmly against the paper and scrubbed as hard as I could. Instead I wrote C Q J. Satisfied I decided to try again at writing her another song.
She was a girl who could never catch a break
Who would stay strong for everyone else's sake
I was a guy with no troubles at all
With straight A's
And a future already planned out
The first verse sounded good so I continued, trying to keep myself from crying as I thought about our memories.
I came up with more and before I knew it I had finished it. I sang it over and over for it to sink in.
Callie's POV
After the, very productive conversation I had with Jesus, I told him I was doing homework, and walked upstairs deciding to go to bed early. But when I walked past Brandon's room, I stopped, hearing his soft and simple voice. It sounded like he wrote a new song. It was probably about Lou. He was over me while I was sitting here next to his bedroom door. He paused a moment then continued like he was starting over from the beginning so I listened intently.
She was a girl who could never catch a break
Who would stay strong for everyone else's sake
I was a guy with no troubles at all
With straight A's
And a future already planned out
Everyday I think about the day we first met
And how much we have changed since then
This same broken girl has my heart
Even though I tell everyone she doesn't
The girl who has hopes
The girl who has dreams
The girl who has
Me
Her smile kills me every time
Even though I know it shouldn't
Her beauty takes my breath away
If we were normal it wouldn't
If I imagine us together again
I know we couldn't, couldn't, couldn't
This same broken girl has my heart
Even though I tell everyone she doesn't
The girl who has hopes
The girl who has dreams
The girl who has
Me
Everyday I think about the day we first met
And how much we have changed since then
This same broken girl will always have my heart
Even though I tell everyone she won't
The girl who has hopes
The girl who has dreams
The girl who has hopes
The girl who has dreams
The girl who has
Me (AN: I wrote this song so if you review, would you mind putting what you though of the song and what you thought of the chapter separately so that in the future I know if writing a song for this is a good or bad idea. Thanks! I appreciate it!)
I cried, wishing he would never stop singing this song, which was another one that was ours.
