"I'll stay for a while." Nico said, his voice really small. It was adorable. Stop it Will!

"Great!" Well done at sounding like a serial killer, Will!

Nico stood up, finally and I smiled. The height difference was actually hilarious, in my opinion.

"So" Nico said, scratching the back of his neck awkwardly. "What now?"

I bit my lip. Then I thought. "I wanna show you something." I turned on my heels and lead him upstairs to my room.

Will wants to show me something. I'm not going to lie, I was nervous about it. Judging by the direction we were going, I guessed he was taking me up to his bedroom.

When we got upstairs, Will stopped me outside a door. He turned round before opening it and smiled encouragingly at me.

He swung the door open and I looked around at Will's room. He had a double bed pushed up against one corner of the room, the sheets we messy so he mustn't've made his bed that morning. He had a bookshelf in another corner piled with manga and a selection of novels like Harry Potter and The Hunger Games. There was a desk next to the bookshelf that was covered in random stuff like homework.

The rest of the room was full of sheet music and various guitars. I stared in awe of the beautiful guitars hung on his wall, and propped up on stands.

"Wow..." I said under my breath.

I looked back at Will and he had a guitar in his hands. He looked pretty nervous and he was blushing. "I wanted to play you something." He said, scratching the back of his neck nervously. It was pretty cute.

I smile slightly. "Go on then."

He sat down on his desk chair and quickly checked the guitar was in tune. It was. He then began to play, and sing!

I instantly knew what it was. "Twin Skeletons" I said. He smiled as he sang.

Will didn't have the most amazing voice in the world, but I was good. His playing was brilliant! After a while, I joined in singing. Quietly, but Will noticed and nodded at me to sing louder. I blushed but did as he asked.

"There's a room in a hotel in New York City
That shares our fate and deserves our pity
I don't want to remember it all
The promises I made if you just hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

And I just need enough of you to dull the pain
Just to get me through the night 'til we're twins again
'Till we're stripped down to our skeletons again
'Till we're saints just swimming in our sins again

And there's a jet black crow droning on and on and on
Up above our heads droning on and on and on
Keep making trouble 'till you find what you love
I need a new partner in crime and you shrug

There's a room in a hotel in New York City
That shares our fate and deserves our pity
I don't want to remember it all
The promises I made if you just hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on

A birth and a death on the same day
And honey I only appeared so I can fade away
I wanna throw my hands in the air and scream
And I could just die laughing on your spiral of shame

And there's a jet black crow droning on and on and on
Up above our heads droning on and on and on
Hit it never quit it I have been through the wreck
But I can string enough to show my face in the light again

There's a room in a hotel in New York City
That shares our fate and deserves our pity
I don't want to remember it all
The promises I made if you just hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on
Hold on, hold on, hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on)
Hold on, hold on, hold on
(Hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on)" Will and I sang as he played.

We sounded pretty good together.

Wow Nico's voice was beautiful! It was gorgeous. I wanted to listen to his voice on repeat forever. Can someone make that happen please?

I spent a good ten minuets staring at Nico after we stopped singing. I could tell that he was getting pretty creeped out by the end of it.

"Why are you staring at me?" He asked.

"You're voice... It's amazing, gorgeous, beautiful. Like you-" I realised what I said just a little too late. Nico's face...
