"Go! Hurry!' Kenna shooed me as I went backstage to warm up. I couldn't stop crying. For what reason, I think you know. But I looked behind the curtain to see the crowd pack, but looking for one certain person, when I found him he was looking down at his hands. This was the last concert of the year. I had to go out with a bang. Of course I would be back next year. But still, it wouldn't be like the first year.
'Harmony.' someone whispered from behind me. I turned around and Brady was standing there. 'ready?'
'Yeah,' I breathed and smiled. I ran up to him and gave him a big hug. 'thanks.'
'No problem, sis.' He smiled back.
'You guys better get on stage!' a man told us. We walked out and I took my place at the piano and started to play Miley Cyrus's 'When I look at you'.
Everybody needs inspiration,
Everybody needs a song
A beautiful melody
When the nights so long
Cause there is no guarantee
That this life is easy...
Yea when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I...
I look at you
When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you
When I look At You I see forgiveness
I see the truth
You love me for who I am
Like the stars Hold the moon
Right there where they belong
And I Know I'm Not Alone.
Yea when my world is falling apart
When there's no light to break up the dark
That's when I, I...
I look at you
When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you
You appear just like a dream to me
Just like Kaleidoscope colors that
Cover Me, All I need every
Breath that I breathe don't you know
You're beautiful...
Yea Yea Yea
When the waves
Are flooding the shore and I can't
Find my way home anymore
That's when I, I...
I look at you
I look at you
Yea Yea Oh OH OH
And you appear Just like a dream
To me.
I turned my head to look at Thomas and he was looking at me in a strange way. The way Demitri looks at Kenna. Like he knew for the first real time in his life that he was in love. And I just smiled and looked down at the keys. After the crowd went wild they closed the curtains I went back stage to see Thomas with 12 roses. I just smiled and approached him.
'Hi.' I smile.
'Ello.' he says in his accent. I just looked down.
'So... those flowers?' I asked.
'Oh! Yeah, they are for you.' he smiled giving them to me.
'Thank you.' I say smelling the beautiful roses.
'You were beautiful tonight.' He tells me. 'and I'm sorry. With all my heart, I am sorry. I shouldn't have pushed you.'
'I shouldn't have been really bitchy about it.' I said.
'I love you.' he softly tells me.
'I love you too.' I smile. He took my hand. 'You want ice cream?'
'I would Love ice cream.' I laugh. So we walked out hand in hand.
***********Month later*********
'Thank you Liz.' The teacher smiles stepping back on stage. The whole student body was in the auditorium for the assembly of the year. Liz Moore just gave a speech and now this was the final word.
'I would like to draw your attention to the last piece of business of the year. The winner of this years Recording Contract is...' she opened the letter. There was confusion that crossed her face. 'Seems like two people got it.'
'It's so you.' Thomas whispered to me.
'Shut up.' I mutter laughing a bit waiting on the edge of my seat.
'Harmony Ronalds and Demitri Janarulio. Congratulations!' she smiled. Demitri (who was sitting two seats down) and I got up and ran on stage to get our certificates. Everyone was clapping for us. Demitri gave me a big hug before we went back to our seats. 'And with the final goodbye, I can not wait to see you next year.' the principle smiled. We all cheered as we ran out of the auditorium. Once we were out Thomas grabbed me spinning me around kissing me.
'I'm going to miss you.' he said when he put me down.
'I'll come back to Chicago.' I smile.
'I'll come to Iowa.' he returned the smile. As he bent to down to kiss me one more time he was stopped,
'THOMAS!' we heard. I turned around as we both saw Thomas's dad coming. 'How dare you still be associated with this... this...Whore!' I looked back at Thomas who had pure hatred in his eyes. I never thought any one would take a swing at their old man but Thomas did. Than, quickly realizing what he had done, grabbed my hand and we ran. Once we were by the fountain he stopped.
'I'm sorry-' he started.
'No, it's okay.' I laughed. 'do you really think I care what he thinks?'
"This is why I love you.' Thomas smiled leaning down to kiss me but was stopped.
"Thomas?' I asked.
'Yes?' he asked pulling his face away a bit.
'Remember the first time we met, that dance early October?' I asked
'OH, yes, how could I forget.' he chuckled.
'Why did you kiss me?' I asked.
'You were the most beautiful thing I laid my eyes on. I didn't think you would like a guy like me so I took my chance and just kissed you.' He said
'I'm glad you did.' I smiled leaning to him kissing him. I smiled until I heard,
'HARMONY!' I recognized that voice. I turned around.
'EMMA!' I ran to meet my sister.
'HARMONY I MISSED YOU SO MUCH!' she laughed as I ran into a huge hug.
"I missed you too!'
"What about us?!' my two brothers reminded me. I ran wrap my arms around them too.
'Ken! Jack!' I laughed.
'Who is this?' Ken asked. I looked back remembering I left Thomas all alone. He walked up and smiled
'Everyone, this is Thomas, my boyfriend.' I laughed.
'Why didn't you mention him in your e-mails? he's a cutie.' My sister whispered to me.
'Ello.' Thomas greeted all of them. I just knew it was going to be okay. Everything. When we all walked back to my dorm Kenna was crying on the couch.
'Kenna! What's wrong?' I asked sitting down next to her.
"I'm going to miss you so much!' she wrapped her arms around me.
'You will see me next year!' I laughed. 'I promise to visit this summer.'
'Pinky promise?' she asked.
'Pinky promised.' I assured her. With my final goodbyes to everyone promising Demitri we would meet up in the next couple weeks to run through some songs I came back to Thomas.
'I guess it's goodbye.' I say.
'For now.' he tells me with a faint smile. We stood there until he grabbed me kissing me just like he did the very first time we kissed. I remember it like it was yesterday. Nice and sweet. But he released.
'I love you.' He grinned.
'I love you too.' I smile.
'Bye.' he tells me.
'Bye.' I breathe. I turn away to get in my car with my siblings. I watch them out the back window as we drove away knowing that it would be okay. No matter how hard it was to say goodbye, I knew there was going to be another hello. I just have to listen to the beat, meanwhile.
