It had been a week since I met Karlie Kloss, and my world had turned upside down. The lanky girl was currently sitting on my couch, begging me to play a song for her.
"C'mon Tay. Please?"
I sighed, knowing I wouldn't be able to outwit her. "Okay, fine, one song." I agreed as she handed me the guitar. "But, only one."
She grinned and I melted inside. That grin drove me crazy, it was like Christmas, my birthday, Thanksgiving and Halloween rolled into one. I picked at the strings of the guitar, debating on what to play. Mentally, I ran through all the songs I had written, and finally settled on one that I'd written the night I'd met Karlie at the bar.
There I was again tonight forcing laughter, faking smiles
Same old tired, lonely place
Walls of insincerity
Shifting eyes and vacancy vanished when I saw your face
All I can say is it was enchanting to meet you
Your eyes whispered "have we met?"
Across the room your silhouette starts to make it's way to me
The playful conversation starts
Counter all your quick remarks, like passing notes in secrecy
And it was enchanting to meet you
All I can say is I was enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
The lingering question kept me up
Two a.m., who do you love?
I wonder till I'm wide awake
Now I'm pacing back and forth, wishing you were at my door
I'd open up and you would say, hey
It was enchanting to meet you
All I know is I was, enchanted to meet you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
This is me praying that this was the very first page
Not where the story line ends
My thoughts will echo your name, until I see you again
These are the words I held back, as I was leaving too soon
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
This night is sparkling, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, blushing all the way home
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
This night is flawless, don't you let it go
I'm wonder struck, dancing around all alone
I'll spend forever wondering if you knew
I was enchanted to meet you
Please don't be in love with someone else
Please don't have somebody waiting on you
"Did you write that?" she asked in awe when I'd leaned the instrument against the edge of the couch.
"Yeah.. I wrote it after I came home from the bar we met at." I said sheepishly, a little embarrassed.
There was that grin again... I smiled back at her and got up to go to the kitchen, the cats scampering after me. Coming back into the living room, I handed her a mug before sitting down next to her. We sat in silence as we watched Nurse Jackie on Netflix. I spaced off as we sat there, deep in my own thoughts.
I still didn't understand how the world started off in black and white, and suddenly turned colorful when you met the supposed love of your life. I mean, there were theories about it, but none had been proven, and frankly, it was a lot to wrap my head around.
"so then, she jumped me in an alley and-"
"Wait, what?" I asked.
"I'm kidding," she smiled. "I knew you weren't paying attention."
"Sorry, I spaced off there..." I apologized.
"That's okay." she said, leaning her head on my shoulder.
I sat my mug on the coffee table and wrapped an arm around her, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. I surprised myself, I normally wasn't the affectionate type, but I was finding out with Kar, she brought out the best in me.
A/N: Sorry it's so short, I'm working on the next chapter that I really like so far, so here's just a short filler. And I'm going to start doing a short snippet of the next chapter/teaser.
"and besides, we're going to get there, and you're going to charm the pants off of everyone. They'll love you." I promised.
"But you're the only one I need to charm the pants off of." she grinned, her whole mood shifting.
