[Camren's POV]
I'm getting ready to go to the talent show tonight. It was really sweet of Ellie to invite me but I wonder why she's performing? I didn't even know she could sing, she's not really one to show off.
As my mind drifts to Ellie, I think back to seeing her stand up to Nate. I was so proud of her for finally standing up for herself. And I must say she looked ridiculously hot while doing it. Ever since I realized my true feelings for Eleanor, I've let myself admit that she is hot.
Extremely hot.
From her toned arms and stomach to her beautiful brown eyes. The way she bites her lip when nervous and her eyebrow furrows when she concentrates. She's perfect and I wish I could be with her.
I shake my thoughts off and continue getting ready for the talent show. I put on black ripped jeans, a grey cropped sweater. I place on my chain and rings before applying a light, natural makeup look. I complete the outfit with a dark shade of red lipstick before I look at myself in the mirror once more.
[Talent Show]
I find a seat in the front row, just like I promised Ellie I would be. To my surprise, a few moments later, Ellie's parents and Lucas walk up, "Hey CJ, what are you doing here?" Lucas asks as he sits down next to me
"Hey Luke, Ellie invited me" I tell him
I see Mr. And Mrs. Bishop exchange a glance, "Oh she did?" Lucas asks
"That was nice of her" Mrs. Bishop says
I nod my head before Principal Marshall walks out, "Welcome students and families to the annual Middleton High Talent Show!" She speaks
We all clap as the performances start. I shake my leg nervously as I wait for Ellie to come out. I want to know what she's performing, I have a feeling it's important. Why else would she invite me?
I would soon find out as Principal Marshall walks back out onto the stage, "And up next, singing an original song...Eleanor Bishop" Principal Marshall says
We start cheering, "Woohoo!"
She walks out on stage as we are all clapping. She stands behind the microphone, "Hello, this song is about someone special in my life. Hopefully you all like it" She says
Someone special?
She takes a breath before she start strumming, "Hmm...Hmm...Hmm" She hums
You know I'd fall apart without you
I don't know how you do what you do
Cause everything that don't make sense about me
Makes sense when I'm with you
Like everything that's green, girl I need you
But it's more than one and one makes two
Put aside the math and the logic of it
You gotta know you're wanted too
She looks up and makes eye contact with me as she continues singing.
Cause I wanna wrap you up
Wanna kiss your lips
I—I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold your hand forever
And never let you forget it
Yeah, I—I wanna make you feel wanted
Well, anyone can tell you you're pretty
And you get that all the time, I know you do
But your beauty's deeper than the makeup
And I wanna show you what I see tonight
She holds eye contact with me, as she smiles slightly.
When I wrap you up
When I kiss your lips
I—I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold your hand forever
And never let you forget it
Cause baby I—I wanna make you feel wanted
I smile back at her as she continues singing, maintaining eye contact.
As good as you make me feel
I wanna make you feel better
Better than your fairy tales
Better than your best dreams
You're more than everything I need
You're all I ever wanted
All I ever wanted
And I just wanna wrap you up
Wanna kiss your lips
I—I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold your hand forever
And never let you forget it
Yeah I—I wanna make you feel wanted
Baby I—I wanna make you feel
Wanted
She finishes strumming the last cord before the crowd erupts in cheers, "That's my twin!" Lucas yells as he claps
"That's my daughter!" Mom yells
"That's my girl!" Dad yells
She smiles as she holds eye contact with me as I clap, a wide smile on my face, "Go El!" I cheer
She smiles, "Thank you" She says into the microphone
"What an amazing performance by Eleanor Bishop..." Principal Marshall says as she walks off
As Principal Marshall introduces the next act, Lucas leans over to me, "Do you know who she wrote that about?" He whispers
I shake my head, "No clue" I lie
Eleanor Bishop wrote a song about me and just sung it in front of the entire school.
She likes me!
