..listen to the music..(and follow your heart) 05

   It had been two weeks since I had my surgery and I was walking fine(with the help of my cruttches and without my leg on the ground).  School was starting in a week.  Have I mentioned that I'm going to a boarding school?  Well I am.  Ian, Chris, and Ryan are all going to this school too.  At least I'll know some people there.

   "Ian how much do I need to pack exactly?"  Ian and Ryan were sitting on my bed watching me pack all of my things into giant boxes to be shipped to the school tomorrow.

   "Ummmmmmm, just your pillows, blankets, any hair junk and face junk, along with some nice clothes and maybe some clubbing clothes, a beach outfit and any other clothes your going to want.  Oh, you might also want to bring some towels. The ones they have there suck on ice."   He breathed deeply after this and then stared at Ryan who was chucking a whole bunch of things in a box.

   "Hun, do you plan on wearing thins in the next four days?" I shook my head as he held up my Egypt Central shirt.  He chucked that in the box and continued going through my closet.  It didn't take too long for that box to fill up.  That one was only clothes so I can't imagine how many boxes it's going to take to pack all of my things.

   "Ian would you please stop imitating smasing my guitar? It's hurting it's feelings, and you might accidentaly smash it. no offense."  He laughed and then put my guitar back into its case.  He closed the latches and went to put it into one of the closests boxes. 

   "Wait, Keep that out, I'm bringing it with me, the day we go." I grabbed my guitar case and set it down next to the pile of things that I wasn;t shipping.

       THREE LOOOOOONG HOURS LATER.

   "So how much stuff do you own Elle?"  We were currently slouched over on my bed staring at the piles of giant boxes of all my stuff.  I sighed and slumped back onto my pillows.

    "Um well I have alot stuff in the basement buuuut, I don't plan on bringing any of that." I chuckled a little bit and then felt Ryan and Ian layback next to me.

    "Thank god woman.  Honestly you should have a garage sale.  Get rid of all this junk."  Ian poked my side made me twitch.

    "It's not junk, it's memories that I cherish and want to keep." I poked Ian back and watched as he pretty much spazzed.  We all went silent and after a few minuetes i fell asleep.  I think Ian and Ryan were sleeping but I had no idea.   I unconciously curled up against Ian's side and he unconciously wrapped his arms around me. 

                  RYAN'S POV

     I laughed to myself as Ian and Elle curled up together.  I knew they liked each other, it's just getting each other to see that was a bit of a problem.  They completely turned a blind eye and now that Ian was dating Kirsten, I had no idea how to get them together. 

     I slowly got off of her bed and walked down to the basement.  We had all of our 'band' gear down here. Or at least our second sets.  My keyboards and tambourines were down there. I absolutely loved playing the tambourine. It made me feel so free and alive.  However I settled for playing a song that Ian had written(he won't admit that he wrote it for Elle.)

    I stopped playing that song and started playing/writing the song that I have been working on for Chris' and my anniversary.

  Because when you smile,
  my world is whole
   Because when you smile,
   I'll be there at your door
  Because when you smile,
   I fall in love, all over again.

   Your eyes, your voice,
   Your hair, your clothes,
   everything about you,
   keeps knocking me head over heels.
   I can't help, but love you.
   I can't help but believe that this is destiney
   You, are, all, my life and my love.

   I promise to never leave your side,
   through thick'n thin i'll stand by you
   don't ever doubt that i won't love you.
  my darling, my dearest, i won't let down.
  my promises are set in stone,
  and I won't let anybody drill them down.

   Because when you smile,
   my world is whole
   Because when you smile,
   I'll be there at your door
   Because when you smile,
   I fall in love, all over again.

  That was all I had finished so far. I sighed and decided to go see if Ian and Elle were awake yet. I walked up the the stairs to the basement and then grabbed a box of cookies off the kitchen counter.  I walked up the stairs and down the hallway to Elle's door. 

    I pushed oped the door covered in posters and smiled at the sleeping figures of Ian and Elle.  She was using his chest as a pillow and he was resting his head on top of hers.  I decided to take a picture as evidence and quickly grabbed Elle's camera out of her pile of stuff.  I snapped the picture and the saved it to her laptop. 

   Once they saw that I was definetly going to be skinned alive.  It's so worth it though.
