Delusions and Desires
Just Wanna"Food's here." Henry patted my back before he turned around to answer the doorbell.
I went back to writing.
Hey now baby girl
Don't you know?
I'm ready for you
Now girl, what are you going to do?
My heart was pounding while I was writing.
This was getting embarrassing.
What if he'd be able to see the message behind my lyrics?
What do I do?
I mentally slapped myself.
I'll add more lyrics. Maybe I won't look so suspicious then.
Cut to the chase we don't have to play no games
The beating of my heart just tell me if you feel the same
....
Yeah... That didn't worsen the situation. At all.
I could ditch this writing from the heart concept lol
wait. no.
The ideas come faster this way.
BUT MY LYRICS! THEY'RE TOO TRANSPARENT!
Shut up! Eric needs this song a few days from now!
But Henry!
But Eric!
"Bon Appetit!"
"HOLY NOODLES!"
Henry caught me by surprise while I was having a dilemma mentally. I immediately crumpled the piece of paper and flicked it aside.
"Whoa, sorry for startling you... Anyway, food..." He handed over a bowl of ddeokbbokki
"Thanks..."
He smiled.
And I had all the reason to blush because I have finally admitted to myself that I had a crush on this kind, talented, handsome-- on Henry.
ahem
"A-anyway... I'll have to get going after I finish this."
I told him before eating a spoonful of ddeokbbokki
"Already?" His face, a look of concern visible.
"I-I mean yeah sure. And I hope you get on better terms with...."
"Eric."
"Eric... yeah..." He rubbed by back as if to comfort me.
"I hope so too... I hope he's not mad. I'll make it up to him tomorrow."
"So you won't come tomorrow?" Henry asked.
"Maybe not." I want to lol "Why'd you ask?"
"Well..." He rubbed the nape of his neck
"I dunno... Uhhh so I could order food in advance?"
"Oh... hahahaha" why can you not tell me you want to see me too?
shut up brain you're getting your hopes---
"I'd miss you yelling and tantrums tomorrow then." He casually said as he played with his food
"ha...ha... yeah... maybe..."
---
I finished my food and felt like I should do more coverage since I might not come tomorrow.
I told Henry I'd linger a bit more for coverage and so he'd be able to arrange the lyrics and compose the music while I won't be around. He said he'd be fine with it.
---
"That should do it. Aaaand we're done!" I raised my hands and stretched earning a few cracking sounds here and there.
"mmmph?" Henry also stretched from his sofa, gradually waking up.
"Congrats... What time is it?" His voice was still sleepy and se---
what the hell
"10pm" I checked my phone for the time
"wait, what??"
I had to check again to see if it really was that late at night
Not to mention it was raining cats and dogs outside.
Please no.
"Can I stay a bit longer until the rain... slows down?" My voice faded, feeling at least a bit embarrassed at my request.
"Why not? Hey, smile!"
Before I could react, snapped a photo using his polaroid camera he always kept in his drawer beside the sofa.
How did I know where he kept it? Well, er, I did snoop around from time to time... so yeah...
"Heeeey..."
Henry smiled as he fanned himself using the photo.
"Here ya go." He handed me the photo with me in a semi-startled look in it.
"In remembrance of when you completed your song. It's our tradition. When we get to finish a song, we take a memorabilia."
"T-thanks... You guys sound like you have a lot of fun when you're together..."
"Yeah, they're a rowdy bunch." He smiled.

(Henry's P.O.V.)
10:30 pm and Amber was still in my house.
She was so mentally drained that she fell asleep on my sofa.
It was still raining hard outside, I doubt Amber would still be able to go home.
I looked over to where her sleeping figure was.
Amber was curled up into a ball and it seems she was getting cold despite the air conditioner turned off.
Looking at her like this... She actually has very feminine features.
What am I thinking...Well... She really did catch my attention since that fateful day we met.
She was especially cute whenever the sun hits her eyes and she has to wince every now and then. The way her breath turns to fog every morning and her smile whenever she talks to me. She has been nothing but sunshine and positivity since I met her. It's like I took a time off away from the troubles of a mental block from composing to listen to great music that would inspire me enough to write a million songs.
Don't you know?
I'm ready for you
Now girl, what are you going to do?
What if he'd be able to see the message behind my lyrics?

'To write from the heart'
I walked over to her work area to clean up the mug she used.
It was a crumpled piece of paper on the very edge of the table at the verge of toppling down.
Don't you know?
I'm ready for you
Now girl, what are you going to do?
The beating of my heart just tell me if you feel the same
The squeaky wheels on the drawer made her stir a bit.
I took the opportunity to snap a photo of her sleeping figure and hid the photo in my jacket along with the folded piece of crumpled paper.
This is going to be her song.
Eric's the one to sing this.
But this song is all about her.
a/n: augh. look at how cheesy Henry is. I had to cringe once in a while while writing this on my way to school HAHAHA anyway YAY! just finished an exam so yeaaah... update. this story's almost ending tho lol please bear with me and my laaaziness
