I wake up, and for the first time, I have a smile.

I'm all cozy in blankets and a big hoodie. Scott comes upstairs with a white cup with stream coming from it.

It smelt good.

It was coffee.

My favorite.

He handed it to me, and I thanked him.

He smiled and walked out of the room.

I got up and got dressed.

I put a tight black shirt on with tight skinny jeans.

I slipped my white high tops on and walked downstairs with my coffee.

"Good Morning, Mitch." He said, not looking at me right away.

I smiled, still not talking much.

He looked up and glanced at me.

"Woah, Mitch!! You look great!!" He said. My eyes grew wide and my mouth formed a smile again.

"Thanks, Scott." I smiled.

"Come sit." He gestured his hand to the seat next to him.

I sat down and sipped on my coffee.

He started talking to me about the future and he made sure that I knew it was okay here.

No one would hurt me.

Everyone was on my side.

Everyone liked me.

And he even told me that I could live here forever of I'd like.

I don't understand why he likes me enough to do this.

I'm not that special.

"Hey, you wanna sing with me today?" He asks.

That was random.

"Um... sure." I say.

He smiles.

Scott says to meet him in the spare room. He said it's his studio.

I did as he said.

It was a big room, filled with 5 microphones, a Piano, a recording booth, speakers and a computer.

He pressed a button, that turned on a light, and then turned two microphones on.

"So, how high can you go?" Scott asks.

"Well... I haven't sung in almost a year... so... I might not be good..." I say.

"Hey, I'm sure you're amazing." He said.

I smiled.

"Here, pick any song." Scott said, pointing to his computer screen.

I clicked on a song. It was by Beyoncé.

It was called Crazy in love.

I kind of thought it matched our friendship, since I had a little crush... okay... ammmm maybe a big crush on Scott.

Maybe he would notice.

I think... maybe, it would help if we were a thing... maybe?...

I don't know.

He smiled at my song choice.

"You like Queen Bee?" He asked.

"Yeah, she's amazing." I said.

He smiled. You could tell he loved her. Posters were everywhere.

He turned the song on.

"You okay with singing?" He asked.

I nodded, shyly.

He smiled. "I won't judge. I promise."

I smiled.

I knew he wouldn't.

The song began, and he started singing.

His. Voice. Was. a m a z i n g.

All I could do was to stare and smile.

Wow.

I smiled and started singing as well.

He stopped singing, and then started again.

He was in awe.

I mean, could you blame him?

IM KIDDING, or was I?

We sang and sang, and we sang this song over and over tighter.

This is where I felt something. Something special.

This song had meaning.

To me, at least.

I'm not ready to tell Scott I like him...

I just need to drop hints.

Maybe?

I smile at him and blow a kiss, like Beyoncé did in one of her videos.

I hoped he took it in a 'Mitchy loves you' way.
