My Musical Love

Chapter 37

- Jacob's POV -

I feel dark. I feel dead. Ever since Jasmine left, all the light in my life vanished. She wouldn't let me explain. Why? Why, couldn't she let me explain? If she wouldn't understand after I explained then I would understand but she didn't allow me to explain my actions. I used to think of Jasmine everyday when I woke up. Her eyes, her beautiful hair, her pink lips but now every morning when I wake up I think of how much hurt I probably caused her and how much pain she must've been going through.

If I didn't like Suzy before, you don't want to know what I thought of her now. I was so mad at her. At myself. How could I have been so naive?! My thoughts were cut short because the principle had tapped the microphone to gain everyone's attention.

"Ladies and Gentleman,the show is commencing" he said and gave the mike to a woman. Probably a teacher. What was her name? Ms. Pepe? Whatever, I dont care.

"Alrighty! Our first performance is Jessica playing the flute!" she said over cheerfully stepping away from the mike. The girl, Jessica went up to the front with her flute and place it near the microphone so it could make the sound loud enough so that we can hear. Soon a soft melody danced through the air and it made my sad and sour mood a bit lighter. It was very...soothing.

"Next up is Matthew singing Thinking out Loud" the teacher announced and I think my eyes were close to falling out of their sockets. Matt?! I've heard him sing, and he is not good what so ever. What the hell is he doing?

"This is dedicated to my girlfriend Dill. Sorry, I can't sing for my life so just bear with me" he said into the mike and I chuckled, nodding my head.

(AN: I don't own the lyrics Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran)

"When your legs don't work like they used to before

And I can't sweep you off of your feet

Will your mouth still remember the taste of my love?

Will your eyes still smile from your cheeks?

And, darling, I will be loving you 'til we're 70

And, baby, my heart could still fall as hard at 23

And I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways

Maybe just the touch of a hand

Well, me-I fall in love with you every single day

And I just wanna tell you I am

So honey now

Take me into your loving arms

Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars

Place your head on my beating heart

I'm thinking out loud

That maybe we found love right where we are

When my hair's all but gone and my memory fades

And the crowds don't remember my name

When my hands don't play the strings the same way

I know you will still love me the same

'Cause honey your soul could never grow old, it's evergreen

And, baby, your smile's forever in my mind and memory

I'm thinking 'bout how people fall in love in mysterious ways

Maybe it's all part of a plan

Well, I'll just keep on making the same mistakes

Hoping that you'll understand
