Happy Little Pill

A loud laugh floated through the house and into the kitchen as I poured myself a glass of grape juice. Then Lauren's voice came through. She was saying it was time to go. I put the juice jug back into the fridge and walked into the living room. Lauren was pulling her coat over her arms and Charlie was pouting on the chair. I sat down next to Andy and smiled at Charlie.

"Do we really have to go? I'm having fun," Charlie complained and I looked at him.

"Aren't you supposed to be sixteen?" I asked. He gave me a death glare and I chuckled.

"Charlie, come on, your dad wants to take us all to dinner," she said and Charlie huffed and puffed before getting off of the chair and walking out with Lauren. Once the door was closed I laid my head on Andy's shoulder and sipped my juice.

"Your nephew is kind of awesome," he said and I nodded.

"I know, but he's not really my nephew," I said.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, Charlie is Gustav's son from another relationship," I said.

"Ah, I was gonna say, your sister isn't old enough to have a sixteen year old child," Andy chuckled and then kissed the top of my head.

"We should probably write some songs, so Dan doesn't beat our asses," I said and he nodded.

"I have this song that I wrote a couple days ago and I want to know your opinion," he said and got off of the couch, disappearing upstairs. I sat on the couch, drinking my juice and staring outside. A couple cars went by but nothing really important happened. That is what I love about living on this street, it's never busy. Andy's footsteps sounded from the stairs and then he appeared in the room with a piece of paper. He sat down on the table in front of me and looked at me.

"Are you gonna sing it?" I asked.

"Maybe," he smiled and I rolled my eyes.

"As I look at the pictures on my wall,
I can see the pain and the sorrow.
I can see the hurt that I caused.
As I listen to the old phone calls,
I can hear her crying,
I can hear her trying,
To keep my down on the ground." He sang and I swallowed.

"Who is it about?" I asked.

"Just wait.
She left me in the middle of the road,
With tears falling down my face,
She was gone and I was broken.
The alcohol kept me alive.
My music kept me going,
Something must have brought you to me.
Something must have seen how I was,
And put you in my life.

My self destruction will come in between,
My self destruction will ruin us,
But you keep telling me,
Shut your mouth and follow me.

My fingers run through your hair,
Your laugh just makes me smile,
Everything about you,
Is what I want.
Nothing makes me feel,
The way you do.
Nothing makes me want,
The way you do.
I know now, this is where I belong." He paused and looked up at me. I had a smile on my face and was hiding behind the clear glass.

"When I was a child,
My father told me,
When you’re looking for a girl,
Keep one thing in mind.
She’s gotta make you happy,
She’s gotta make you smile.
She’s gotta make you mad,
She’s gotta make you cry.
A girl is a keeper,
When she can make you,
Rethink your entire life!

My self destruction will come in between,
My self destruction will ruin us,
But you keep telling me,
Shut your mouth and follow me.

My fingers run through your hair,
Your laugh just makes me smile,
Everything about you,
Is what I want.
Nothing makes me feel,
The way you do.
Nothing makes me want,
The way you do.
I know now, this is where I belong.

Somewhere inside of me,
My heart sings for you!
Somewhere inside of me,
My soul screams for you!
Somewhere inside of me,
My mind is you.
Somewhere inside of me,
You bring out the best in me.

My fingers run through your hair,
Your laugh just makes me smile,
Everything about you,
Is what I want.
Nothing makes me feel,
The way you do.
Nothing makes me want,
The way you do.
I know now, this is where I belong.(X2)

After everything we have been through,
After all the shit we have seen,
I look at you and see my home.
You are where I belong.

Where I belong.(X3)" He finished the song and I was smiling like an idiot. It was amazing and had just enough rock feel to it, that Dan is going to love it.

"I like it," I said.

"I was hoping you weren't giving me a poker face," he smirked.

"It's amazing, but, we need to write a new song, one that is hard core and dirty," I tried to say it without laughing, but when I saw Andy's face, I burst out laughing.

"Hard core and dirty?" He asked.

"I tried, I really did," I was still laughing and he chuckled.

"What are we really writing about?" He asked.

"Um, I don't know. You're happy right now, aren't you?" I asked. He nodded with a smile and I smirked.

"Me too, so. We could write a song about how awesome we are without saying who the song is about," I said.

"I'm hungry though," he said and I laughed.

"Of course you are. What should we eat?" I asked.

"I'm thinking pizza," he said.

"Cheese pizza!" I yelled and ran off the couch to go grab the frozen pizza from the freezer. Andy came into the kitchen and leaned against the door frame. I went to pulled the plastic off the pizza when Andy laughed.

"I meant we could order pizza," he chuckled more and I gave him a glare.

"But these frozen pizzas have been in here forever," I said and he walked over by me and grabbed the pizza from my hand.

"And they will be in there one more night. I am craving Pizza Hut," he smiled and pulled his phone out. I huffed and sat down at the island while Andy ordered. When he got off the phone he wrapped his arms around me and rested his chin on my shoulder.

"Your chin is boney," I said.

"I realize that," he said and I rolled my eyes.

"How many songs have we written?" I asked.

"Like six of them, why?" He asked.

"And you need how many?" I asked.

"I think a total of eleven," he said.

"That's five more songs," I whined and he chuckled.

"It is five more songs, but we got this, don't worry," he said and let me go. I got off the chair and went into the living room to watch some TV. Andy came in soon after and sat down next to me. I was watching Orange Is The New Black and I was very into it. Andy kissed my cheek and I smirked before turning my head quickly and kissing him. I am more happy than I have been in a very long time. But I know something is going to happen to fuck it all up.

Notes

Well, this is a very relaxed chapter. A new song that I wrote and am very proud of has been revealed. And I might have done a bit of foreshadowing....... Hope you liked it!
