Talent show performance with your best friend 🤞🏻😚 you guys wrote a song for your exes

"You ready?" I asked Josie nervously.

"We got this! Stop worrying!" Josie reassured.

"You got this." I corrected her. "I've never preformed before." I reminded her.

"And you will be great. The song is great plus Hope and Penelope are gonna be in the crowd." Josie reminded me.

"I know." I rolled my eyes. I really didn't have to be reminded where my ex would be. I knew. "I really don't want to mess up." I was finally cutting ties with Hope. I couldn't keep doing it anymore.

"You won't. We've practiced this at least a hundred times and it's been perfect each time." Josie pulled me out of my chair. "Now it's our turn." She gave me a hug and pushed me towards the stage. "Just lose yourself in the music. You're good at that."

I nodded. "Okay. I'll see you out there."

I nervously gulped walking onto the stage. Center stage I scanned the crowd and see the Penelope and Hope were indeed there. Only thing different was they were holding hands. What the hell? I knew those two would be together a lot but I didn't know they were together together.

Oh Josie is gonna love that... I rolled my eyes at them. I bet if it would have been one of them catching me and Josie holding hands they'd be livid. They always were upset that Josie and I were more than friends even when we aren't.

"Stallions!!!" I smiled and the crowd cheered. "Tonight I'll be singing my first ever original song with the help of someone special." I turned to wink at Josie waiting for her que. "I hope you like it." I turned back to the crowd smiling.

The music began to play and I took a deep breathe.

Y/n:
Why do all the monsters come out at night?
Why do we sleep where we want to hide?
Why do I run back to you
Like I don't mind if you fuck up my life?

I look over at Hope and she made eye contact with me letting go of Penelope's hand. Shame Josie wasn't gonna see that but, why she letting go? Not like it's gonna change a thing.

Another day, 'nother headache in this hangover hotel
Gettin' used to the rhythm, yeah, I know this beat too well
Tunnel vision's got me feeling like you're the only one I see
But I know what's missing when I'm swimmin'
In my lonely luxury

I smirked at Hope when I saw her face flash with pain. Whatever she's realizing it's far too late. This was my good bye to her. Cause even if Im asking why I always run back to her I know this is me breaking that cycle.

I'm wondering why do all the monsters come out at night?
Why do we sleep where we want to hide?
Why do I run back to you
Like I don't mind if you fuck up my life?
Why am I a sucker for all your lies?
Strung out like laundry on every line
Why do I come back to you
Like I don't mind if you fuck up my life?

I got lost in the music just feeling free.

I'm addicted to the way you hurt, the way you contradict me
I swear everything look worse at night, I think I'm overthinking

Josie walked out and our class went crazy knowing how well she did last year. Whatever she's singing now is gonna be even better.

I don't care who I might hurt along the way, I'm fuckin' sinking
Into every word, I don't care if you're lyin' when I'm drinking
