“Ok, I’ll teach you . . . Violin. Come here!” She took a violin out of her bag.
((O yea... where should they meet? Sry, I forgot.))
((Oki, um, beach. Don’t ask. Actually, arts and crafts! Also, can u plz send the link 2 Violet?))
((Oki, thanx. U post 1st.))
Maya walked in. "Woah!" she said, marvelling at the bright interior of the cabin.
"It's way brighter than my cabin," she said. But she didn't feel homey in it. It was showier than Poseidon's cabin. But it was still nice and bold.
He led her to the studio that was set up there,"Which song?" He asked
"Ummm," she said. "I won't do good at any of them, so you pick."
"There must be some song. You just have to know the tune and the lyrics"
((XD))"Sure" he put in the karaoke version,"You know the lyrics right?"
((lol i'm not gonna type out all of the lyrics but...))She sang the lyrics along to the karaoke music. She was surprised. It was actually pretty fun to sing! But Maya still knew she was bad at it. When the music died out, she breathed heavily. She was horrible at singing. It was a fun side hobby to do alone. But not in front of a cute Apollo camper.
He clapped,"That was way better than I expected when you said you were awful. I'm just so.... Surprised. You really downplayed your singing when you were talking about it"
She searched his face for a sign that it was a joke. He seemed serious. Maya laughed in surprise. "Well...okay. That was a pleasant surprise."
"Yeah, it was" he joined her in laughing
Maya smiled. "Thanks," she said softly. "I needed that."Today was her mom's birthday. She was feeling a bit sad, but singing had really cheered her up.
"You're Welcome" He replied,smiling. "Wanna try one more?"
She smiled. "I think I want to hear you sing."
"You decide," she said with a smile.
He suddenly got a thoughtful look on his face. He searched for the song and put the karaoke version on, then walked to the mic."Ayy, ayy, ayy, ayy (ooh)
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh (ooh)
Ayy, ayy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Needless to say, I keep her in check
She was a bad-bad, nevertheless (yeah)
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck (wreck)
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck (wreck)
Needless to say, I'm keeping her in check
She was all bad-bad, nevertheless
Callin' it quits now, baby, I'm a wreck
Crash at my place, baby, you're a wreck"
Maya smiled. Sunflower, by Post Malone. She waited until he finished. Unlike her, he was an amazing singer—he deserved the spotlight.
"...I know you're scared of the unknown ('known)You don't wanna be alone (alone)
I know I always come and go (and go)
But it's out of my control
And you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
I think your love would be too much
Or you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stuck by ya
You're the sunflower
You're the sunflower (yeah)"
He slowly opened his eyes as the song ended. When had he closed them? He had no idea. He was just so lost in the song. He smiled at her,"How was that?"
She opened her mouth and then closed it. She opened it again. "That was ... amazing. Like—"
Maya grinned and looked at his brilliant blue eyes. "Yeah..." she said. She whipped herself out of the trance. He's a boy she told herself. Not an exhibit to stare at.
She looks beautiful when she smiles, nope not going there. She is just a friends that you are helping out. Nothing more., he kept a smile on his face, not letting her of his conflicted feelings for her in any way.
Maya giggled nervously. "Umm..." she decided to be bold. "Are you going to the Valentine's Dance?"
"The thought never really crossed my mind" he said, rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
"Oh..." Maya said, darting her eyes downwards. "Um, never mind then."
"It's not like I have anybody to go with. Almost everyone already has dates to the dance already" he she shrugged
"Everyone except you and me," Maya joked.
"Yeah, everyone except us" he said, smiling nervously
Maya smiled and looked at the guitar in the corner. This was too awkward. She was too hesitant to ask him....
He followed her gaze,"That's James's guitar."
She tore her gaze from it. "Oh, no I wasn't looking at it because—"Maya wanted to smack herself. Why did she sound like a stammering imbecile?
"Um, anyways, what I mean to say is, will you go t—to the Valentines dance with me?"
