A familiar voice came from the shadows.
The red-headed girl thought for a moment to who that voice belonged to...
Oh no.
Hayley began to shake with subconscious fear.
She had known this voice ever since she was thirteen, but, if she knew this voice so well, why was she afraid?
----------------
I am finding out
That maybe I was wrong
----------------
Maybe she was afraid because she hasn't seen--him...
in over 3 years...
Maybe because she felt responsible for the band's breakup due to her own stupid, pitiful feelings...
Maybe because the last time she saw him, she smacked him in the face and called him a "lying, cheating dick."
Maybe because he broke her heart...
Or she broke his...
--------------------
That I've fallen down
and I can't do this alone
---------------------
A rough finger slightly tapped on her shoulder, making her jump and almost piping out a scream.
As she slowly turned around, she saw a tall, dark figure.. much আরো grown up remembered.
It was Josh.
Josh mirrored her expression, but seemed আরো relieved than nervous, when he managed to whisper,
"...Hayley..."
-----------
Stay with me
This is what I need, please?
------------
"You look... different. uh- more..matured..", Josh ব্যক্ত as he thought of his words carefully.
"Ya, আপনি too.", Hayley barely was able to say with a growing grin.
Hayley shivered a bit as she could feel the midnight frost on her translucent skin. Afterall, it was in the middle of the night, and they were outside দ্বারা the বৃক্ষ where Hayley and Josh shared their first...
The ginger girl shook the thought from her head, thinking this is like one of those crappy teen চলচ্চিত্র where she jumps back into her love's arms and they marry and live a happily ever after. But no, in reality, life isn't like that. অথবা at least Hayley believed so.
"Your cold?", Josh's প্রশ্ন broke into Hayley's thoughts like a new, expensive mirror.
"W-wha?", she mumbled
"Your shivering...here", Josh slid off his brown
Levi জ্যাকেট and gestured it towards her shoulders.
"Um--thanks", she blushed as she put his জ্যাকেট over her shoulders. Ahh..his জ্যাকেট is just how she remembered it. It doesn't look like a warm jacket, but since it was Josh's, that made the জ্যাকেট all the warmer.
-------------
Sing us a song
and we'll sing it back to you
--------------
Hayley glanced behind Josh's shoulder at the Farro house he grew up in.
"Don't আপনি miss Franklin, Josh?", Hayley ব্যক্ত আরো as a statement than a প্রশ্ন as she leaned on the railing of the small fence behind the tree.
"You know the answer to that!", Josh laughed as he followed her movements and leaned on the railing--just an inch away from her.
"What about that fiancee of yours..", Hayley tried to make it sound like a comment, but failed.
"She and I are.. things didn't work out..", Josh replied in a sincere tone. Suddenly, it got quiet.
Not the kind of quiet like an awkward silence, but a calm quiet.
"What about your boyfriend--i think its, Chad?",
Josh asked trying to break the silence.
Hayley nodded her head and added,
"You mean ex-boyfriend."
"...should i ask?"
Without turning to him, she closed her eyes and replied, "Nah..you shouldn't."
They both sighed in the perfect night.
------------------------
...We could sing our own...
------------------------
Hayley opened one eye, and glanced at the window in Zac's room...when she saw Zac, Jeremy, and Taylor all staring wide eyed at the reunion of the ex-couple. Hayley glared at their nosiness, but this was to be expected. She let out another sigh.
"I..I have to go...", The words that came out of her mouth sounded a lot আরো hurt than she wanted.
She took of Josh's জ্যাকেট and shoved it in his chest; trying not to look at his face. She would have began crying if she did.
As she began to walk away, she felt a hand tug onto her tiny wrist, and a voice that followed:
"Hayley, wait!"
--------------------------------
...But what would it be without you?
---------------------------------
Hayley shook, trying to get out of Josh's grasp, but he was much stronger than she remembered.
"Please...just stay with me for a little
longer...", Josh begged over a whisper.
---------------
I am nothing now
and It's been so long
Since I've heard a sound
the sound of my only hope..
----------------
Hayley finally yanked away from his hand, but didn't run away...although she wanted to.
She took a deep breath, and asked,
"What do আপনি want?", Man, her words were really deceiving her today; it came out much harsher than she meant it to.
"I just want to talk", he pleaded.
"Oh reallly?!", she mimicked, not believing him.
"Yes reallly!!", Josh began to get pissed from the way Hayley was responding.
"Well, when we dated before, আপনি never wanted to talk."
"But I'm different now!"
-------------
This time..
I will be listening.
-------------
"Oh reallly?!"
"Yes!!! reallly!"
"Ugggh!", Hayley turned back around, moaning in frustration. "It's so hard to deal with আপনি sometimes!", she exclaimed.
"OH?! and your just nicest person I have to deal with!", he yelled, flipping her back around.
"You were frustrating even before we started dating!!", he yelled, face turning red.
"Whatever!! আপনি always had such a big ego, that's why I dumped you!", she yelled back, stepping a little closer to his face.
"You..dumped me?!", Josh laughed in anger.
"What's so funny?!?!"
"And আপনি say I have a big ego?!", he exclaimed, getting even closer to Hayley.
"Jerk!", she stepped closer to him.
"Tease!", he was only a few inches away from her.
"Ass!"
"Bitch!"
"Dick!"
"Moron!"
"Idiot!"
"YOU--",
Josh and Hayley stopped when they noticed their noses were barely touching. They both stared into each others ember eyes... their angry glares turned into soft gazes.
-----------------------
Sing us a song
And we'll sing it back to you
We could sing our own
but what would it be with you?
-----------------------
"I'm a...what..", Hayley barely asked over a whisper, but gave up on asking দ্বারা the last word.
"Your a..."
--------
This heart
it beats
beats for only...
--------
Hayley was still waiting for an answer, but Josh was হারিয়ে গেছে in her gaze.
"Your..", Josh tried to say...
"Your.."
---------
This heart
it beats
beats for only...
----------
"Your...crazy!", He exclaimed, but before Hayley could shoot back, she found his lips desperately on hers, his hands cupping her face.
------
...you!
------
Hayley's eyes were wider than ever, but she slowly closed them...as she fell into his trance...not even daring to think that Zac, Jeremy and Taylor might be watching.
----------
This heart
it beats
beats for only you!
-----------
The girl slowly wrapped her arms around the only one she ever loved, and knew this was just like a crappy teen movie... and she didn't seem to care.
-----------
My হৃদয় is yours!
-----------
The boy wrapped his arms around her waist, and would never let go...
-------
This heart
it beats
beats for only you!
my heart...
-------
She pulled away from the passionate kiss, and smiled like she meant it.. for the first time in three years...
--------------
My হৃদয় is yours!
(Please don't go now
please don't fade away)
--------------
Josh smiled back, and he knew he fell in প্রণয় with this same girl three years ago...
---------
My হৃদয় is..
yours!
(Please don't go now
please don't fade away)
---------
Hayley could have sworn she heard the lyrics in her head...
'My হৃদয় is yours...'
as she stood in front of the বৃক্ষ where she shared her first kiss... and her last.
-------
My হৃদয় is...
-------
