Chapter 18: I Knew You Were Trouble.


Naru watching me play was to close for comfort, sure he had seen me sing at the ball but I had a mask on and he knew it wasn't me, and there were other people so it wasn't as bad, but just Naru, him, on his own, I couldn't help but feel scared. Scared, I didn't know why but I was. Ever since the incident he has been keeping an extra eye on me cause I can feel it and it was annoying me. It seems like he wants to listen to me.

I glance at his back as he leant over the monitors, so, next time he catches me in the act, shall I sing...I got it. I smiled as I leant back into the sofa with a smile. This was going to be easy, but, we might want to do something with the case first. I glanced at Naru, he was looking at me, and I smirked and looked away.

Nope, Naru first...


Two hours later, twos songs written and me wandering round with my newly made charms and I was off for a wander. Ayako and the others were of researching to try and finish this case and I was only meant to wander round, sense things. With these charms, I couldn't sense anything so I was bored while they researched today but I knew that Naru was poking about. If I was quick enough I could sing my new song without him and then 'his song' and then leave. As I head down the hallway towards the piano room I stopped behind one of the cameras, I didn't want Naru knowing I was heading there so I smiled and stuck a picture of the area over the camera so it looked like there was just an empty hallway. I thought of it early, I thought it was pretty smart and after Naru notices it, I would have finished my first song, so it's a win-win situation. I grinned and skipped along.

I sat down at the piano with a small smile on my face and two songs in my hand. I set them on top of the piano while lifting the key case and seeing all the keys shining up at me. I smiled softly and tested a few keys loving the sound of the keys under my fingers. I looked all around the room before I looked up at the folders; I smiled and picked up the top one taking out the paper that held my feelings.

I put them on the stand, flexed my fingers before laying them gently on the keys. I began to play.

She read me the note, he left on her bed,

Snuck in her room, right after she left,

And put petals on the ground,

Her head on his shoulder, they walk down the hall

I'm left to wonder will I ever fall in love,

And where is he now,

She's with him, I'm in the back seat,

Know it's not right, but it hurts when they're laughing,

And I've never been where they are,

I wanna, be blown away,

I wanna, be swept off my feet,

I wanna, meet the one who makes it hard for me to breathe,

I wanna, be lost in love,

I wanna, be your dream come true,

I wanna, be scared of how strong I feel for you,

Just call me beautiful, Call me beautiful,

Call me beautiful, Call me b-e-a-utiful,

Friday night, she wore his jersey to the game,

In the front row screaming out his name,

As he turns to her and smiles,

Everywhere I look people holding hands,

When am I gonna get my chance at love,

My chance at love,

Cause she's with him, I'm still hurting,

Try to pretend but it's not working,

I just wanna be where they are,

I wanna, be blown away,

I wanna, be swept off my feet,

I wanna, meet the one who makes it hard for me to breathe,

I wanna, be lost in love,

I wanna, be your dream come true,

I wanna, be scared of how strong I feel for you,

Just call me beautiful, Call me beautiful,

Call me beautiful, Call me b-e-a-utiful,

My heart is waiting for your love,

My hand is waiting for your touch,

My lips just wanna be kissed by you,

I wanna, be blown away,

I wanna, be swept off my feet,

I wanna, meet the one who makes it hard for me to breathe,

I wanna, be lost in love,

I wanna, be your dream come true,

I wanna, be scared of how strong I feel for you,

Just call me beautiful, Call me beautiful

Call me beautiful, Call me b-e-a-utiful

Beautiful, Call me beautiful,

Call me beautiful, Call me b-e-a-utiful,

It was nice to let that out, I mean, it was just the song I wanted to sing and I knew it would go on the album, definitely. I smiled and ran my hands over the keys ready for the next song. This was for Naru. Now was time for his song and hopefully he was here to hear it.

Once upon a time, a few mistakes ago,

I was in your sights, you got me alone,

You found me, you found me, you found me,

I guess you didn't care, and I guess I liked that,

And when I fell hard, you took a step back,

Without me, without me, without me,

And he's long gone, when he's next to me,

And I realize, the blame is on me,

'Cause I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

'Til you put me down, oh,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

,

No apologies, he'll never see you cry,

Pretend he doesn't know, that he's the reason why,

You're drowning, you're drowning, you're drowning,

Now I heard you moved on, from whispers on the street,

A new notch in your belt, is all I'll ever be,

And now I see; now I see; now I see,

He was long gone when he met me,

And I realize the joke is on me, hey!

I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

'Til you put me down, oh,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

And the saddest fear, comes creeping in,

That you never loved me or her, or anyone, or anything, yeah,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

'Til you put me down, oh,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in,

So shame on me now,

Flew me to places I'd never been,

Now I'm lying on the cold hard ground,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

Oh, oh, trouble, trouble, trouble,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

Trouble, trouble, trouble,

I knew you were trouble when you walked in

Trouble, trouble, trouble,

I smiled to myself as I relaxed. It felt nice to let that out. It felt better to finally let this out. I ran my eyes over the lyrics and this seemed like the perfect song to sing, perfect song to go on my album. I loved it. I just loved this song. Filled with so much emotion I- "Wow,"

I spun round in my seat to see two people, a man and a woman stood there clapping, then I realized it was the hotel manager and his assistant. I stood up and bowed, "I'm really sorry for using the piano without your permission," I straightened with a blush. The hotel manager smiled and walked over to me, "No, it's completely fine, we know who you are Miss Mai Takigawa," he replied in English, "But when we heard someone singing and we came to find out, we saw you, oh, how we would love for you to sing at the gathering next week. We have a lot of business people coming to stay this week and for the opening show we would like to ask you to sing please?" I stared at the man when he bowed. I found out from Ayako that he can be a very strict man. His name was Joseph Samuels, and assistant Amelia Steele. (Okay, so I have read fifty shades of grey...don't shoot me.) She was a very tall woman and she didn't beat around the bush. When Ayako told me all of this, I wondered what they did on their rounds. Pictures of them being ninjas around the hotel made me giggle and smile. Then I remembered where I was and straightened. "I would be honoured, but I would have to check with my boss first,"

"There is no need, I agree," a voice said from behind me. I looked over my shoulder to see Naru stood by the stage, a door to his left open. My eyes widened, Did he hear my first song?

I looked back at Mr Samuels. "Well, it looks like I can, when does it start?" I asked with a huge grin. They began to tell me the details when I began to feel faint. As they explain I tried to concentrate on them but I couldn't my eyes began to go fuzzy, blurring at the edges slightly first. I blinked but the blurriness continued to seep through. I closed my eyes with a nod trying to gain control; I then heard a high-pitch scream resonate through my ear. I clutched both in an attempt to block out the scream that continued. My knees buckled as my control slipped and I fell to my knees with a sickening thud. I heard faint calling but my mind was elsewhere. I clutched my ears tighter.

The dreadful scream seemed endless; the same pitched, filled with pain. I chocked a sob as I felt myself fall into someone. I shook my head, trying to get the screaming to leave, the horrid sound. I felt someone remove the charms and I cried out in pain as the scream became worse. I felt warmth spill onto my hands, it seeming like liquid seeping through the cracks between my fingers and dripping and sliding down my forearms.

Another necklace was placed around my neck and as soon as it did, the screaming was cut out. But I was still not in control. My ears hurt; my head was pounding in beat with my heart as I tried to calm myself down from the fright. People called out to me, pleading, asking, I heard faint crying as well. I had to be strong from the so I began to open my eyes slowly, as I opened them, I saw a face.

I wanted to puke, I probably did. I had no control so yeah, I probably puked. The face was peeling, not like peeling from sunburn, no skin. It was mouldy, rotting and all gunky and green. One eye socket sunken and dark black, cuts all around it. The other was worse; there was no eye ball, just blood, seeping down. I probably puked again and gagged. Over the rest of the face were cuts, bruises, mould, you name it, and it was gross.

It smiled with its teeth. I puked again. I knew it. His teeth, well, what teeth, there was four maybe, five? They were all black, chipped, mouldy, and where there was none it was also black, and red, red. I screamed when I noticed it being bloody and I began to panic, thrashing about.

The face let out a hoarse chuckle and I looked at it. It whispered, "Always a screamer, Elisha, always," and the face fade. I promptly fainted. The face of what seemed a man, marked and scared into my mind, memory for ever.
