Summer went to Spring and Lily.
I walked over to my mom who was talking with all my aunts and some cousins.
"Hey Tatum" my mom smiled.
"Hi" I said and took some chips off her plate.
She rolled her eyes.
Aunt Jessa said "You should get Gramps to let you play".
I shook my head "No, no, no!"
Lex, Logan, Mark, and Scarlett said "Good idea" then pushing me up to where the band plays.
They started to talk to gramps and the other band-mates.
They then looked at me and smiled.
"Good idea, Tatum come here".
Mark pushed me over.
Todd said "Here you play" and handed me a martin guitar.
My eyes widened "No, no you don't-".
"O come on Tatum, whats that saying you kids say now a days........Yala!" My granfather said.
"Its 'YOlO' and no one says it Gramps, unless your ten".
He shrugged "O well, stand here".
They all pushed me to infront of the microphone on the stand.
They all walked into the crowd and everyone turned to look at me and was dead silent.
"Uhhhh.....I'm Tatum. I'm being force to do this
The crowd laughed.
"Warning: I have not played guitar for 2 years, so this is going to be horrible."
Everyone chuckled and I put the guitar strap over my head.
(A://N I can't really sing that well, so I am just going to picture my friend loverunning19 singing, because she can sing....unlike me....)
Everyone stared at me.
"Well you done done me and you bet I felt it
I tried to be chill, you're so hot I melted
I fell right threw the cracks
Now I'm trying to get back" I sang and strummed the chords on the guitar.
"Before the cool done run out
I'll be giving it my bestest
And nothings gonna stip me except for divine intervention.
I reckons, it's my turn
To win some or learn some." I breathed.
"But I won't hesitate
It cannot wait,
I'm yours" I sang each word pronoucing it, and everyone stared and my eyes met Rivers.
"Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free.
Look into your heart you'll find love love love love
Listen to the music in the moment, people dance and sing, we're just one big family
And its our God forsaken right to be loved loved loved loved loved" My eyes held Rivers gazd threw that whole 'stanza' and I averted my eyes from his.
"So I wont hesitate
No more, no more
It cannot wait,
I'm sure." I strummed then chords and people clapped alog to the beat.
"There's no need to complicate.
Our time is short.
This is our fate,
I'm yours." I held the notes.
"Baby do you believe, I'm yours?
You best believe, you best believe,
I'm yours." People continued to clap along and few people hollered my name.
"Well open up your mind and see like me
Open up your plans and damn you're free.
Look into your heart you'll find love
So please don't, please don't, please don't....."
I heard little kids gasp "Bad word"!
"Cause our time is short.
This oh, this oh, this is our fate.
I'm yours." My fingers played the strings.
"Oh I'm yours
Oh I'm yours
Oh, oh" I held the notes
"Do you want me come on, scooch on over closer, dear
And I will nibble on your ear."
People smiled and some sang along.
"I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try and see you clearer"
"But my breath cogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I'll be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons.
Its what We aim to do.
Our name is our virtue." I slowed down the last part.
"But I won't hesitate
No more, no more
It cannot wait,
I'm yours." I sang and continued to play the guitar.
"I'm yours.
Oh, I'm yours
Oh, I'm yours
Oh, oh"
I sang and my eyes met River's again.
