12- sadness & regret

I lay silent on Kyle's bed, memories running through my head. A knock on the front door forces me to jump. I relax as I remember that Will and Woody were coming over.

I slowly walk over to the door to let them in. The two of them walk in taking me into their arms.

"Hey, guys." I mutter.

"Hey, Dan. We know something that could take your mind off of Kyle for a bit. Follow us."

I tell them that I want to cover a song thay Kyle and I really enjoyed and thwy said it was fine. The thres of us settle in the studio and Will and Woody start playing and I start singing.

"For a while we pretended
That we never had to end it
But we knew we'd have to say goodbye
You were crying at the airport
When they finally closed the plane door
I could barely hold it all inside

Torn in two
And I know I shouldn't tell you
But I just can't stop thinking of you
Wherever you are
You
Wherever you are
Every night I almost call you
Just to say it always will be you
Wherever you are

I could fly a thousand oceans
But there's nothing that compares to
What we had, and so I walk alone

I wish I didn't have to be gone
Maybe you've already moved on
But the truth is I don't want to know

You can say we'll be together
Someday
Nothing lasts forever
Nothing stays the same
So why can't I stop feeling this way

At the end of the song I throw the microphone, tears streaming down my face.

"Dan. Dan. Dan. Chill." Woody says, calmly, helping me up off the ground.

"LET ME GO!" I shout, squirming out of his grip.

"Dan...he is gone and there is nothing we can do. So, relax." Will comments.

"RELAX?!" I shout, "I CANNOT RELAX, WILLIAM!" I stomp out of the studio, slamming the door behind me.
