Violet's POV

I lay awake staring at the dark ceiling. That's it I've given up on trying to sleep. I turn on my bedside light, and sit up. I look down into the living room. Lights from the street seep into the apartment through the window. I scan the apartment for something to do. My eyes catch a piano. How could I not see that before?! I get out of bed and make my way down the stairs towards the piano.

I sit down on the piano bench and start to play around. Nights like these make me miss my dad. He worked at a theater when I was younger. I found my self playing The way you look tonight by Frank Sinatra on the Piano.

"Some day, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
Yes, you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word your tenderness grows
Tearin' my fear apart
And that laugh, wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heartSome day, when I'm awfully low
When the world is cold
I will feel a glow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight
Yes, you're lovely, with your smile so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me but to love you
And the way you look tonight
With each word your tenderness grows
Tearin' my fear apart
And that laugh, wrinkles your nose
Touches my foolish heart
Lovely, never, never change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
A-just the way you look tonight
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
It touches my foolish heart
Lovely, don't you ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won't you please arrange it?
'Cause I love you
A-just the way you look tonight
Mm, mm, mm, mm,
Just the way you look tonight" I sing.

Once I finish the song there's a knock at the door. "Violet??" A familiar voice says on the other side. I get up and open the door. Brendon is standing there. He looks so tired. "Was that you singing?" He says immediately. "Um yeah... what are you doing here?" I said.

"Can I come in?" He asks with a sigh. I step aside and let him in. "I've been trying to find someone with as much passion in their voice to sing at my club for so long now." He says sitting down on the piano bench. "Okay??" I say sitting next to him.

"Would you play me something?" He asks in a desperate voice. "Um sure." I say I began to play a song my friend played for me once called lost in Japan.

"All it'd take is one flight
We'd be in the same time zone
Looking through your timeline
Seeing all the rainbows, I
I got an idea
And I know that it sounds crazy
I just wanna see ya
Oh, I gotta ask
Do you got plans tonight?
I'm a couple hundred miles from Japan, and I
I was thinking I could fly to your hotel tonight
'Cause I-I-I can't get you off my mind
Can't get you off my mind
Can't get you off my mind (oh)
I could feel the tension
We could cut it with a knife
I know it's more than just a friendship
I can hear you thinking 'bout it, yeah
Do I gotta convince you?
That you shouldn't fall asleep?
It'll only be a couple hours
And I'm about to leave" I sing. Brendon watches me in amazement.

I was hoping I could get lost in your paradise
The only thing I'm thinking 'bout is you and I
'Cause I-I-I can't get you off my mind
Can't get you off my mind
I can't seem to get you off my mind
Let's get lost tonight
Let's get lost tonight
Baby, you and

I can't seem to get you off my mind" I finish singing. And look at Brendon.

"Where did you learn to play and sing like that?!" He said. "Well my dad worked on Broadway." I laughed giving him the short answer. "You have to sing at my club! I'm not taking no for an answer!" He said standing up. "Okay how much we talking?" I asked.

"We'll negotiate after opening. I'll be back later to discuss." He said heading to the door. "Okay I said following him to the door. "Night doll." He said winking at me before heading down the stairs.

I went back to bed and this time I was tired. My eyes grew heavy as I slowly drifted to sleep listening to the sounds the streets.

Brendon's POV

    As I left her apartment I knew I was in love. Her voice roped me in, and now there's nothing I won't do until she's mine. I mean how could she refuse me! I locked up the club, and took one final look up at her apartment. The light in her window turned off. I turned on my toes and left the building with high hopes in finding true love.
