“Okay, so what is the song called again?”
“Its called ‘Smile’, me and Ike were thinking of your big smile when we wrote it, thats why we want you to be the first one to hear it” said Taylor holding my hand leading my into their at-home studio. Its was really cute because with every word he said his face turned redder and redder.
“Thanks” I said softly as I took a seat on the over-stuffed couch that was in the studio.
“Okay, you guys ready?” said Zac slapping his drumsticks together. “1..2..3..4”
Alright so im not going to write out the whole song, but made a couple lines, like the chours.
“ Smile give me all your heart, never be apart, never leave you alone girl just smile tell me that you care, and i’ll always be there, never leave you hurt”
“So, Haley what did you think?” asked Taylor, I could feel the nervousness in his voice, I would have loved to have known what was going through his mind at that very moment, but I didn’t.
“It was amazing Tay” I said jumping up off the couch and giving him a giant hug. He just smiled and his huge dimple came out. Sometimes its really hard not to just love the guy!
“And what about me?” asked Isaac with a kinda hurt kinda playful look on his face, “I helped”
“Im sorry” I said hugging Isaac, but not as intensely as I did Taylor. As I hugged him I became overwhelmed with the smell of his strong musky cologne and quickly let go.
The room became very quiet and all four of us just stood there and stared at one another. “Well, guys we should probably practice some more” said Isaac finally breaking the silence in the room, and grabbing his guitar.
“Yeah your right” said Taylor and Zac in unison.
“I have some homework” I said running up the staris like there was no tomorrow. That was just to weird for me to handle. It was like Isaac and Taylor expected something form me and I am not sure what that is. Oh, well I have to go work on my French homework anyways.
The next day in school I got a really big shocker. I was walking to my 5th period class and my boyfriend, Chad, grabbed my arm and pulled me into an empty room.
“Haley, I have to tell you something” It really scared me when he said this because he started to sweat, it was almost like he was nervous.
“What is it, you can tell me anything” I said putting my hand on his shoulder.
“I met a college girl, and..”
“And???” I cut in
“Im sorry, but I can’t see you anymore.” said Chad staring at the floor.
“What?” I asked in disbelief, “arther everthing you are dumping me for a college whore?”
“Yeah” said Chad still looking at the floor.
Something had to be done to him, he ws just not going to end it like this. So I pulled back my hand and slapped him as hard as I could, actually I just pretended that he was Isaac. He just held his now bright red check and looked at me. I didn’t know what else to do so I grabbed my books for the floor and stormed off to my next class.
When I got home that night I slammed the door, ran to my room, locked the door and put ‘I Will Come to You” on repeat. I kept on hearing Taylor asking what was wrong, but I couldn’t talk to him, I could let him see me crying like that.
