Killing Jar

The next day, I found Brendon and Ryan working in one of the rooms of the studio. They didn't see me standing in the doorway, so I just stood there smiling at them. It wasn't creepy of me or anything. Finally Brendon looked towards the door and saw me. He smiled at me.

"Hey," he said. Ryan stopped talking and looked my way.

"Hey," I said.

"What's up?" Brendon asked.

"I'm finished," I said. Ryan's face lit up.

"You finished the song?" Ryan asked.

"Yeah," I said. "You guys want to hear it?"

"Uh, yeah," Ryan said.

"Of course," Brendon said.

"Well you'll have to come with me," I said. "I need a piano."

Both of them stood up and followed to me to the room I had been working in, which, of course, had a piano. I sat on the piano bench and Brendon and Ryan stood nearby to watch and listen.

"Ready?" I asked. I was a bit nervous for once. They both nodded their heads.

My fingers hovered over the piano keys for a moment before I finally started playing.

"Na na, na na na, na na
I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget you, oh it's so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it clearly

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooooh

Na na na na na na na

I didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I could see you again
I know that I can't

Oooooh
I hope you can hear me cause I remember it clearly

The day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
Ooooh

I had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened, you passed by

Now you're gone, now you're gone
There you go, there you go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you're gone, now you're gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere you're not coming back

The day you slipped away
Was the day i found it won't be the same noo..
The day you slipped away
Was the day that i found it won't be the same oooh...

Na na, na na na, na na
I miss you"

I didn't realize until I was done that I had been crying. But when I finished, Brendon was next to me immediately wiping the tears from my face and hugging me.

"It's a beautiful song," Brendon said, stroking my hair. "I loved it."

"Thank you," I mumbled into his chest. I sniffled and sat up straight so I could see Ryan. He was standing awkwardly behind Brendon. "What'd you think?"

"It was great," he said smiling at me kindly.

"Thank you," I said again, giving him a small smile. I looked at Brendon. "Now that I've finished this song, my band can start recording."

"That's great," Brendon said. Brendon grinned suddenly and started bouncing up and down. "We should go celebrate!"

I laughed at him. He was so adorable.

"That would be fun," I said. "What did you have in mind for celebrating?"

Brendon glanced back at Ryan for a second before looking at me. He raised his eyebrows and smiled at me suggestively. I slapped him in the head playfully.

"We're not going to celebrate like that," I said. "How about we go out somewhere?"

"But-" Brendon started, but I cut him off.

"We're not celebrateing like that because Ryan couldn't be involved," I said.

"Yes he could," Brendon said.

"No!" I exclaimed.

"How do you know that he doesn't want to?" Brendon said.

"That doesn't matter," I said. "I don't want to."

"Fine," Brendon said.

"Am I missing something?" Ryan asked. Brendon turned to look at Ryan.

"Well, I wanted to celebrate by having sex with Ava, but she didn't want you to be left out, so I suggested a threesome, but she said no," Brendon said quickly.

"I agree with Ava," Ryan said immediately. Brendon sighed.

"You two are no fun," Brendon said.

"There's other things that are fun that don't involve sex," I said.

"Like what?" Brendon asked.

"Urrgh," I said. "I can't believe I'm actually having this conversation. How about no celebrating? You're making this more difficult than it needs to be Brendon."

"How am I making this more difficult?" Brendon asked.

"Just shut up Brendon!" I yelled. Ryan started laughing. "You too Ryan!"

They both started to laugh. I couldn't believe this.

"What am I going to do with you two," I said.
