"Riley! Get out here now!" Danny yelled, laughing. I shook my head, staying in place. He glared at me playfully.

"Cameron, grab her!" He shouted, an evil grin taking place of the smirk he'd previously worn. I felt hands pick me up and toss me over a shoulder, bouncing around under Cameron's loose grip.

"What are you doing?" I squealed, laughing. He let go of me, standing me in front of a grinning Danny. I rolled my eyes, looking into his.

"Hello." He smiled.

"Hey." He brushed his hand against mine, lacing our fingers together. He sat me down on the stage, pulling me into him. I sighed heavily, resting against him. Danny wiggled from underneath me.

"I'll be right back love!" He called, jogging to the side of the stage.

"Hurry up!" I yelled, laying my back against the cold wooden floor. He came back out a few moments later, a familiar song playing overhead on the speakers. The song filled the air of the empty venue. I smirked as I recognized the song. He suddenly yanked me into a sitting position, sitting criss-cross across from me. He lay our hands between the two of us. His beautiful eyes melted mine. I held his gaze, not noticing his hand brushing a strand of hair behind my ear until I felt his fingertips graze my skin. His smooth, lovely voice began to sing to me.

"Bury me in the bedroom where I,

I can sing you to sleep all night.

Put me next to the open window,

promise me a second time.

'Cause I don't want to leave without you buried by my side.

I'd rather kill the one responsible for falling stars at night,

'cause they fall all around me.

The night can be deadly.

And they'll never take us alive.

(Can you chase away the darkness?)

To live in love and die.

Last night she recited every reason she's fine.

So if we're heading there together at the same time,

you sing while I drive.

Move like a fugitive tonight.

Dance on the ambulance,

'cause I would rather spend my life

vacations in bed with you like drunken summer kites.

And this is only a test,

sober and scaring me to death.

They'll never take us alive.

(Can you chase away the darkness?)

To live in love and die.

And I don't care if you're sick,

I don't care if you're contagious.

I would kiss you even if you were dead.

Would somebody make me go blind for the rest of my life?

'Cause I'd do anything to hold your hand.

And I don't care if you're sick,

I don't care if you're contagious.

Oh, no.

Would somebody make me go blind for the rest of my life?

'Cause I'd do anything, anything, anything.

They'll never take us alive,

'cause I'll chase away the darkness.

I'll live in love and die.

I joined the party for the recently blind.

So if we're heading there together you can sing all night.

I'm gonna tear out the thread one by one from your skin

'till your bones feel embarrassed by all the attention.

Kiss me while I drive." He finished with a little dance. I couldn't stop smiling the entire time. The way he sang the song was something I'd never heard. It seemed like he only sang that way for someone he really loved.

That person just happened to be me.

"Babe?" He said, waving his hand in front of my face. I shook my head, looking back at him.

"Yeah?" I asked. He chuckled, leaning across the small space and wrapping his arms around me. I giggled, knowing what he was going to do. He rolled back, crushing his lips to mine in the most romantic way. We pulled apart after a moment, Danny's arms still around me.

"I love you Riley." He whispered in my ear. I blushed, biting my lip.

"I love you too Danny."

The song is I Don't Care If You're Contagious by Pierce The Veil.
