Pistol and Glitter (MS-III)
Song is Glitter in the air by P!nk
~~~~~
The next month and a half were absolutely boring. Wake up, eat breakfast, sort shit, talk to Louis, eat dinner then sleep. The highlight of my day was seeing Louis smile. It was quite rare at this day and age to see someone smile so widely like he got a pony for his birthday.
One day I got bored from sorting when Louis didn't show up so I decided to take a break and look around the school. I soon heard a muffled noise. I pulled out my pistol and assumed there was a walker in the school. I walked up the stairs with yield to my foot and made it to the noise. It was still muffled but louder. I thought it was muffled shouts but soon I got to the door and realized it was singing. I lowered my gun and peered into the room.
Louis was sitting at a piano and playing as he sung. I put my gun away and watched quietly. He was good. Actually that was an understatement. He was amazing. His voice was smooth like butter. I couldn't help but lean in a little closer. I pushed on the door with my finger tips to not disturb the beauty but the door creaked a little too loud. Louis stopped playing and looked over to see me.
"Stalking me are you?" He asked.
"I- uh... no. I was on my way to see ruby. It's my check up today."
"Yeah, the check up that's on the other side of the school?"
"I-"
"It's okay. I don't mind that you watched."
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be creepy." I blushed.
"You're fine. Wanna come play?"
"I really should get to my check up."
"You have all day for that! Come on! Tickle the old ivories for me."
"I don't really play but I can try."
"You can't be that bad."
"I wouldn't put it past me if I were you."
He laughed and I sat at the piano. I looked at it tried to figure out what I wanted to sing. When I had made my mind I put my hands on the keys and started to play
"Have you ever fed a lover with just your hand?
Close your eyes and trusted, just trusted.
Have you ever thrown a fist full of glitter in the air?
Have you ever looked fear in the face and said I just don't care?
It's only half past the point of no return
The tip of the ice burg
The sun before the burn
The thunder before the lightning
And the breath before the brace
Have you ever felt this way?
Have you ever hated yourself for staring at the phone?
Your whole life waiting on the ring to prove you're not alone
Have you ever been touched so gently you had to cry?
Have you ever invited a stranger to come inside?
It's only half past the point of oblivion
The hour glass on the table
The walk before the run
The breath before the kiss
And the fear before the brace
Have you ever felt this way?
La la la la la la la
There you are sitting the garden
Clutching my coffee
Calling me sugar
You called me sugar
Have you ever wished for an endless night?
Lassoed the moon and the stars and pulled that rope tight
Have you ever held your breath and asked yourself will it ever get better than tonight?
Tonight."
I stopped pushing on the keys and looked at Louis was in shock.
"W-wow you are really good."
"I try." I shrugged.
"No, that was really good."
I felt a blush creep onto my face and I stood from the bench.
"Well I should get to my check up like I was supposed to."
"Alright. Come back anytime. I'd love to hear you sing more."
"I will." I nodded and walked out.
"Well you look like you're all better. Fast healing."
"I've always been that way."
"Well that's good! Now you can help with heavier jobs. Obviously we aren't going to make you lift a thousand pounds but you won't have to sort junk anymore." I smiled and nodded as I walked out. I walked on my leg and it felt fine. I cheered and made my way back to Louis's piano room but I was disappointed when he wasn't there.
Maybe tomorrow.
