It's been about 2 month since the incident at the skatepark, and everyone's been hanging out, Ellie's also getting more comfortable with everyone

We've gone to Phoebes, Tori's, And hung out at mine

Everyone's getting along good, but I've noticed Daniel and Ellie getting closer

Someday it'll happen, I think to myself as I lie in my bed, staring at the celling at the celling. It was late - around midnight - but my insomnia won't let me sleep

Start to hum a random melody and it stuck in my head

I quickly grab my note book and sit at my desk, turning the lamp on. I write down the lyrics and begin to build a structure. Soon I start to label the parts of the song and a vision builds in my mind if the back story

It's set to be someone longing for a felling that use to bring them joy and happiness that has been ripped from them, they haven't been the same since and they feel like somethings missing within then

The start is of the feeling. The comfort and love that radiated from it. Then the music starts to get more desperate, as the feeling is ripped from them

They try to fight to have it back but whatever took it is not merciful. They beg and beg, but out of strength, they give up the fight and accept their gone

The music stays in this quiet way from a while, slowly building up. Until you've regained energy and are determined. Searching for this missing piece

But no matter where you look, it's nowhere

Slowly you melt back into yourself and begin to live alone without the thing that fulfils you, leaving you empty and helpless. This is when the music fades out

I go back to bed, imagining the scenario, eventually sleep takes me over and my body relaxes into the soft comfort of the mattress

In the morning I pick up my guitar in it's case along with my bag and Walk to school. Ellie's sick today so she's not coming

I walk into school and drop my bagging at my locker, walking into the music room with my guitar by my side, I walk into one of the small recording rooms and shut the door

I open up my note book, setting it down at the table as I unbox my guitar
I start to play around and finally get a melody like

After about half an hour fiddling around I hear a knock

"Yes?" I said, not looking up from my work

"Hey, you okay in here you haven't come out" it was Daniel. I like how sweet he was

"I'm okay, just working on a song" I say as I smile at his caring words

"Oh, can I see it?" He asked and I handed him my handful of notes and I started to play the riffs

"Wow what the fuck this is so cool" he said as he stared at the paper in his hands. His eyes lighting up

"Thank you, I thought of it last night " I say grabbing the paper back off him

"Well I'll leave you too it come out if you want" he said as he waved and left

I sighed a sigh of comfort that he liked it

It was the end of the day and I walked back to the music rooms to collect my guitar

"Hello Dallas, here for my guitar" I said as I passed him on my way in

He nodded and I put my guitar in the case and started to walk
