Pass This Test And Hope For The Best

Ryan’s POV;

It was day two of the contest. Day one went very well. All of the boys are very attractive, but this Brendon character really caught my eye. I had been flirting with him. It seemed to make him uncomfortable, which made him adorable. Well, more adorable. He had brilliant chocolate brown eyes, short brown hair, pretty plump pink lips, that made for a killer smile.

I already want to pick him but I suppose that it’s too early to pick. I’ll have to wait until the rest of the guys prove something to me. I also really like Mikey, also because he’s adorable and innocent looking.

We were all sitting on the stage, waiting for the show to begin.

The director began the count down.

“Five, Four, Three, Two, and we’re live”

“Hello and welcome to day two of Reinventing Love! Today we are going to give each contestant one minute to dazzle Ryan!” Billie Joe said. Seriously, why the fuck is he here? I mean, not that I don’t love him but why is he here? It’s just random.

“Ready, Ryan?” He asked.

“Yup.” I said, smiling.

“Okay so first up is Gabe!”

Gabe began and they went down the row.

Gabe spoke Spanish. Gerard sang. William sang. Mikey played bass. Frank played guitar. Bob played drums. Spencer told hilarious jokes. Pete played bass. Jon just complimented me.

Now it’s Brendon’s turn.

“So Brendon, how are planning on ‘dazzling’ me?” I said suggestively.

“I’m going to s-sing.” He said quietly.

Ooh, another singer. How sexy.

“Okay, cool.” I said.

He began singing in the most beautiful voice that I’ve ever heard. I clung to every word.

“Come save me from walking off a windowsill
or I'll sleep in the rain.
Don't you remember when I was a bird
and you were a map?
Now he drags down miles in America
briefcase in hand.
The stove is creeping up his spine again,
can't get enough trash.

He took the days for pageant
Became as mad as rabbits
With bushels of bad habits
Who could ask for anymore?
Yeah who could have more.

His arms were the branches of a Christmas tree
preached the devil in the belfry.
He checked in to learn his clothes had been thieved
at the train station.
Rope hung his other branch
and at the end was a dog called Bambi
Who was chewing on his parliaments
when he tried to save the calendar business.
He tried to save the calendar business.

He took the days for pageant
Became as mad as rabbits
With bushels of bad habits
Who could ask for anymore?
Who could have more.

The poor son of a humble chimney sweep
fell to a cheap crowd
So stay asleep and put on that cursive type
you know we live in a toy.
You know that Paul Cates
bought himself a trumpet from the salvation army
But there ain't no sunshine in his song
We must reinvent love.
Reinvent love, reinvent love.

He took the days for pageant
Became as mad as rabbits
With bushels of bad habits
Who could ask for anymore?
Yeah who could have more.

We must reinvent love.
Reinvent love, reinvent love.”

That was beautiful. I am defiantly dazzled.

I smiled at Brendon.

I leaned over to whisper in his ear.

“I am soooo dazzled by you, Brenny.” I said.

“Th-thanks.”

I moved to sit back in my chair and I winked at him.

Brendon sat back in the line of my possible boyfriends.
“So Ryan, who dazzled you most?” Billie Joe asked.

“Defiantly Brendon.”

“Okay that’s our show for tonight! Tune in tomorrow for another exciting episode!”

The camera’s stopped.

Tomorrow would be exciting for sure.
