CHAPTER 5

VIVIANA KNIGHT

"Shall we begin?" He asked.

I nodded nervously.

He started playing the guitar, at first he was adjusting the tune then he began with the tune.

I cleared my throat. After yesterday he takes one step towards me I swear I'll get a heart attack.

I started.

"The day we met
Frozen I held my breath
Right from the start
I knew that I'd found a-"

I stopped.

Fuck! I forgot.

Suddenly all of it just blanked out.

He too stopped playing "It's fine, we can do it once more."

Again I nodded.

Good God! I can't sing casually in front of him. It's too much.

Again he started playing the guitar and asked me to start singing.

"The day we met-"

After that what happened? What happened after we met?

I forgot again.

I closed my eyes, cursing myself, while he stopped playing.

"Should I go first? Then you can join me."

I gave him a 'you are my saviour' look and nodded.

He began...

"Time stands still
Beauty in all she is
I will be brave
I will not let anything take away
What's standing in front of me
Every breath, every hour has come to this"

I stared at him, mesmerised by his voice, mesmerised by the way he played the guitar and sang with it.

While playing he said "Come on, this is the part we sing together."

Oh I forgot.

I started with him.

"One step closer...
I have died everyday waiting for you
Darling, don't be afraid, I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more"

My eyes automatically went to him while I continued singing

"And all along I believed I would find you
Time has brought your heart to me
I have loved you for a thousand years
I'll love you for a thousand more"

He stopped playing and smiled "That was awesome."

His head turned to me who was busy staring at him.

When I didn't reply or when I didn't take my eyes off him he cleared his throat and said "Shall we continue?"

Still I was lost in my thoughts.

Thoughts which craved his presence in my life.

Thoughts that desperately wanted him to be a part of my life.

Thoughts which wonders 'Can he really not be mine?'

"Viviana?" He called making me come back to the real world.

"Yes?"

"Shall we continue?"

I nodded "Y-Yeah."

We continued our practice and I didn't realise that it was past 2.
