"A ballad? I mean, sure, we could try a ballad?" Those were usually love songs though, and other than what he felt for his mom, Luke wasn't really sure what love was. He moved over to where she stood with the book and peered down to read the lyrics over.
We say we're friends, we play pretend...I feel your rhythm in my heart, you are my brightest burning star.
As he read the lyrics over he felt an unfamiliar feeling settling in his chest and it hadn't been there before. He turned to look at Julie who appeared to be a little nervous and then he realized what she had just said. "These lyrics, they are...really amazing, Julie. You have such a way with words, it's beautiful." It was all true, she was full of so much talent and he was going to do anything and everything to make sure that the rest of the world knew it too.
