That's Just How
Things Work
Chapter
9
Tess' POV
I
probably looked like an idiot to Cole right now. I mean, I
was singing into my hairbrush as if it was a microphone and
just let go. I didn't really care if he thought I was weird
or not. If we were gonna be friends, he might as well see how
I really am.
"I said I'd never let you go, and I never did! I said I'd
never let you fall and I always meant it! If you didn't have
a chance then I never did... You'll always find me right
there again." I danced, and laughed, and smiled. All Cole did
was nothing more than just watch me and smile. The song came
to an end and Iris by The GooGoo Dolls came on. I put the
hairbrush down.
"And I suppose this is yet another amazing song by one of
your favorite bands?" He leaned against the wall and crossed
his arms over his chest just looking at me with a smile on
his face.
"As a matter of fact, yes it is. Although I can't dance to it
without a partner." I grinned.
"Oh no." He laughed then started shaking his head.
"Oh yes." I skipped over to him and grabbed his hands
intertwining them with mine and we swayed back and forth like
two retards. All he did was just laugh and smile, I did the
same.
Cole's
POV
She took my hands and locked them to hers. We swayed
back and forth and just laughed. I let go of her hands and
placed mine on her waist. She got on her tippy toes and
wrapped hers around my neck. All I wanted to do at that very
moment was just kiss her, or just stop time and stay like
that for well... a while. The song ended and another came on.
Another slow song. I knew it. I sang it in my head for a
while as we swayed back and forth. I then started singing
lowly, almost in a whisper.
"If I could be your superman, I'd fly you to the stars
and back again. Cause every time you touch my hand you feel
my powers runnin' through your veins. And I can only write
this song-" Tess began to smile.
"And tell you that I'm not that strong... Cause I'm no
superman."
"I hope you like me as I am." I grinned.
