My Guardian Angel
Bouncing back.
I woke up to the sound of the doorbell. I rolled over to face the door and saw Harry answering it. Why is he opening my door to the public shirtless? Such bad publicity. . .
"Hey! Is Lily here?" I hear Selena say.
"Yeah she's here but she is still sleeping." I hear Harry say. "But come on in." I watch as not just Selena, but Demi and Justin walk in.
"Well good morning girlie!" Demi says as I sit up.
"There is no such thing." I say at the thought of a 'good' morning.
"Haha. Well go get dressed! It's Tuesday! You remember what we do every Tuesday right?" Asks Justin.
"I remember. But I'm not going unless Harry comes too." I say.
"He can come. It's just karaoke at Dumas." Says Selena.
"Go where?" Harry asks confused.
"Every Tuesday, we go to a little bar/ restaurant and spend the day there singing karaoke. It's just something we have been doing since we first started hanging out." I explain.
"Ok. I think that sounds like lots of fun. I wanna go." He says.
"Well put a shirt on then and get ready." I hear Demi say.
"You too. We can't have you walking around in public looking like that." Justin says. I make an upset face. "I was just kidding LJ!"
"Whatever. Go jump in a well. And break a leg on the fall. And get severe head trauma." I say a I get up and walk to the stairs leading to my room.
"I forgot she isn't a morning person." Justin says to Selena.
"That's a fatal mistake mister. She slapped me one time for waking her up." Demi says.
"It's a reflex!" I yell from the top of the stairs. I go into my room. I put on my usual karaoke outfit.
"Lets go!" I hear Justin yell. I'm finishing my makeup.
"Calm down Justine!" I yell back.
"Don't call me that!" he yells back.
"I'll call you whatever the hell I want to!" I reply as I walk down the stairs. I see everyone sitting on the couch except Harry. Harry is leaning by the door tossing the keys up and catching them. "I'm ready now! Ok?" I say angrily.
"Ok! Now let's go!" Says Justin impatiently.
"I swear if girls knew how you really are you wouldn't be as attractive to them." I say as we walk out to our cars.
Demi, Selena, and Justin go to Justin's car and Harry and I go to mine. I get in and as we pull out of my drive way Harry asks me something.
"You sing?"
"Not a lot. I do occasionally but not often." I say.
"Are you good?" He asks.
"No. I suck terribly. That's why I model. Because I can't sing well." I confess.
"I bet you're just exaggerating." He says.
"Just watch." Is all I say. From that point it was silent for the rest of the drive. After ten minutes we finally arrive. I hop out and lock my car. I walk over to the little outside tables.
"Hey baby!" I hear a voice I haven't heard in forever.
"Ron! It's been way to long!" I say as I approach the old man. He was like a grandfather to me.
"So you're going to sing? All by yourself?" He asks.
"Maybe. You know I never sang alone when I was little." I say as I smack his arm lightly.
"So I heard about you and your little boyfriend. Shall I put on the one you had me save into your Karaoke Folder?" He says.
"No. I want to do Growing Up by Auburn." I say innocently.
"Alrighty then. What about you four?" He asks Harry, Justin, Selena, and Demi.
"They will write it down Ron it's ok." I say. He nods and we follow him into the restaurant. I grab my favorite white Mic and he plays my song. I start singing and tears fall. The song was really emotional and it just touched my heart. I belt out every note with my soul.
Once I was done I looked out at the audience and everyone claps. Selena and Demi come up and hug me. I laugh a little and Demi comforts me.
"It's ok baby girl. I know the feeling." She says. Next was Harry.
"I had no idea that it was that bad. That song was just so emotional. But your voice is phenomenal! I loved every second of it. You were just so into the song. It was amazing!" He says. I laugh and watch as everyone else takes a turn.
"I can show you the world,
Shining, shimmering, splendid,
Tell me, princess, now when did you last
Let your heart decide.
I can open your eyes,
Take you wonder by wonder,
Ober, sideways, and under
On this magic carpet ride
A whole new world,
A new fantastic point of view,
No one to tell us no, or where to go,
Or say we're only dreaming." He sang beautifully. I'm handed a Mic and pushed on stage. I look at him and he smiles.
"A whole new world,
A dazzling place I never knew,
But when I'm way up here,
Its crystal clear,
That now I'm in a whole new world with you." I sing.
"Now I'm in a whole new world with you." He echoes.
"Unbelievable sights,
Indescribable feeling,
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling,
Through anendless diamond sky,
A whole new world" I sing.
"Don't you dare close your eyes." He says.
"A hundred thousand things to see." I sing to him.
"Hold your breath- It gets better." He sings to me.
"I'm like a shooting star,
I've come so far,
I can't go back to where I used to be.
A whole new world." I sing passionately.
"Every turn a surprise."
"With new horizons to pursue." I sing.
"Every turn a red-letter." He sings.
"I'll chase them anywhere,
There's time to spare,
Let me share this whole new world with you." I sing back.
"A whole new world." He says.
"That's where we'll be." I reply.
"A thrilling chase." He sings as he gets closer to me.
"A wondrous place." I sing back.
"For you and me." We sing in perfect harmony. We just look at each other for a minute.
"Don't just stand there. Kiss the girl!" I hear Ron say into the microphone. The crowd starts chanting 'Kiss! Kiss! Kiss!' I think he was asking permission by the way he was looking into my eyes. I hesitate for a second but then I just close my eyes and grin. I wrap my arms around his neck and he kisses me. The crowd cheers.
"That's my girl!" I hear Ron say. I smile against his lips and he starts laughing. We let go and bow.
"Awh! I love your little friend with benefit relationship! It's so cute!" Demi confesses. Ron walks up to us.
"See. My little girl can get her heartbroken a million times and she bounces back the next morning." He says. I do a sarcastic laugh and he smiles.
"What the hell was that?!" I turn around and see the last person I want to be around. "Who do you think you are?! Kissing my girlfriend!!"
"Oh shit." Is all Justin said before slowly backing up.
Not now. Please.
"Hey! Is Lily here?" I hear Selena say.
"Yeah she's here but she is still sleeping." I hear Harry say. "But come on in." I watch as not just Selena, but Demi and Justin walk in.
"Well good morning girlie!" Demi says as I sit up.

Demi sings Give Your Heart A Break. Justin sang As Long As You Love Me and Selena sang A Year Without Rain. Next up was Harry. He grabs a Mic and whispers something to Ron. He whispers something to Selena, Demi, and Justin too. They all smile and he walks out to the stage. I look at the monitor with the words and am surprised by what I see.
"I can show you the world,
Shining, shimmering, splendid,
Tell me, princess, now when did you last
Let your heart decide.
I can open your eyes,
Take you wonder by wonder,
