Singing (open)

[Sky]

The girl's dormitory was quiet except for the sound of Sky tuning her guitar. She gently plucked the strings of the black acoustic while turning the small knobs at the end of the neck. She cleared her throat, then went into a slow, but pretty song she had heard. After a few bars of music she started to sing since nobody was around. Or so she assumed.


"It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing

The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes sayin' you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me if ever I fall
You say it best when you say nothing at all"

She messed up on a note and stopped playing. "Ughhh." Sky mumbled, laying her head against the side of her bed.

"Sky, thats really good."  Jackie said, appearing from outside Sky's door frame.  "I love the lyrics. Did you write them yourself?"  She asked again.  "They're absoloutly wonderful..."  She trailed off and began to sing a few...

"It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word you can light up the dark"

Her voice seemed to lift as it usually did when she sang.  Jackie was a one talent person,  considering she was a Siren she was amazing at singing,  but she couldn't draw for crap.  Jackie hummed for a bit longer.  "Would you play the rest?"  She finally asked.

[Sky]

Sky flung her hand to her forehead. She closed her eyes as her face flushed a bright red. "Oh my gosh. I thought I was alone." She said, embarrassed a little. She took a small breath and looked at Jackie. "Oh no. It's from a muggle singer. But thank you for your compliment. You sing well too." She plucked a string and turned a knob just a tad more and then started playing the tune, with an intro.

"1...2...3...4...1...2..ready..go." Sky said, counting off.

Jackie sat down on the bed across from Sky and listened patiently.  Music was the one thing in life Jackie understood, pretty much.  People were so confusing,  but music had a set tune and certain notes.

[Sky]

Sky leaned against her bed to support her back and focused on the guitar. She watched where her fingers were until she got used to the tune, then looked up out of the window. She couldn't help but to smile. The music seemed to fit in perfectly with her life. She had a boyfriend, that she loved ever so much, and she was happy. Truly happy.

Leah sat up in her bed.  She had been writing, her story seeming to wander and end up terribly like all of them did.  She stood up and walked over to where Jackie and Sky were.  She listened for a while, sitting down by them.

Jackie listened to the guitar notes and was soon singing along with her eyes closed.  She was gently swaying and when she opened her eyes they were glistening and more white than blue.  Jackie's singing along with the Sky's guitar playing sounded amazing to Jackie.  She smiled and kept going as her mouth formed words and sang them, even if she barely knew what she was singing.

Leah watched as Jackie got into some sort of trance.  It was strange and somewhat creepy how her eyes were almost completely white .

[Sky]

((I totally forgot I had this topic....Whoops.))

She song ended rather soon. Sky didn't look at anybody though she knew Leah was there. She yawned.

[dobby888]

Leah smiled as the song ended. A song played in her mind, there almost always was one.

[Sky]

Sky removed the guitar from her lap and carefully put it under her bed.

[dobby888]

*That was pretty... how did you learn to play like that Sky?* Leah inquired, genuinley interested.  She had recently aquired a guitar of her own and wanted to learn how to play it, but wasn't sure where to start.

[Lola_La_Fringe7]

"Yeah, it really is beautiful."  Jackie said, her eyes were their normal bright blue again and stood out against her somewhat pale face.

[nate]

  Nate heard the last part of the song. He thought it was a beautiful song but he didnt recognize what it was called. He walked into the room and smiled," Hey what are you girls doing," he asked.

Apart from almost shrieking in surprise, Leah was sure that her face looked terrified.
