Louis POV

It started getting dark so we grabbed the flashlights. "What do you guys wanna do?"

"Karaoke!" Harry and Niall yelled. "We can use our laptops." Niall added. We all agreed.

"I think Addi or Selena should go first." I said.

"Selena can sing!" Addi yelled.

"I'm a terrible singer!"

"No you're awesome. Now sing."

"Fine." She glared at Addi. "But you might want to get some earplugs." She mumbled.

She took my laptop and got on YouTube. She thought for a second. She started typing. The music started. Ed Sheeran A-Team. I didn't expect her to be good after what she said. I was wrong.

"White lips. Pale face.

Breathing in the snowflakes.

Burnt lungs. Sour taste.

Light's gone, day's end

Struggling to pay rent

Long nights, strange men"

She is amazing. She has the voice of an angel. She looked so pretty while she was singing.

"They say, she's in the class A-Team.

Stuck on her daydream.

Been this was since eighteen.

But lately her face seems

Slowly sinking, wasting

Crumbling like pastries

And they scream

The worst things in life come free to us

Cause we're just under the upper hand

And go mad for a couple grams

And she don't want to go outside tonight

And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland

Or sells love to another man

It's too cold outside

For angels to fly

Angels to fly."

Her voice really is amazing. Why didn't she tell us she could sing?

"Ripped gloves, raincoat

Tried to swim and stay afloat

Dry house, wet clothes

Loose change, bank notes

Weary-eyed, dry throat

Call girl, no phone

"And they say

She's in the Class A Team

Stuck in her daydream

Been this way since eighteen

But lately her face seems

Slowly sinking, wasting

Crumbling like pastries

And they scream

The worst things in life come free to us

Cause we're just under the upper hand

And go mad for a couple grams

And she don't want to go outside tonight

And in a pipe she flies to the Motherland

Or sells love to another man

It's too cold outside

For angels to fly

An angel will die

Covered in white

Closed eye

And hoping for a better life

This time, we'll fade out tonight

Straight down the line

"And they say

She's in the Class A Team

Stuck in her daydream

Been this way since eighteen

But lately her face seems

Slowly sinking, wasting

Crumbling like pastries

They scream

The worst things in life come free to us

And we're all under the upper hand

Go mad for a couple grams

And we don't want to go outside tonight

And in a pipe we fly to the Motherland

Or sell love to another man

It's too cold outside

For angels to fly

Angels to fly

To fly, fly

For angels to fly, to fly, to fly

Or angels to die"

She finished singing and the music faded out. All of us boys were shocked. We couldn't speak. We just stared at her with our mouths open. Addi was smiling.

"Was I that bad?" She asked.

"That was....you are..... I didn't..... I can't talk." I said throwing my hands up.

"That was amazing." Liam said.

"What he said." I agreed.

"Uh huh." The other boys said.

"Awe thanks. Now Addi. Get your butt up and sing."

*~*~*~

We just finished karaoke. We couldn't see anything now so it was time for the flashlights. I'm getting really tired of not having any power. I miss watching TV and ordering pizza. Can't the lights come on. "Who wants to play hide and seek again?" Harry asked.

"Lets do it." I said. I picked up Selena and ran off. I ran to my room. We got under my bed. Lets see if they find us here. Selena was on her back laying next to me. I still think she is the prettiest girl I've ever seen.
