Lila's POV:
"it's beautiful here." i breath out as i see the sunrise come up over the city. "like you." he whispers in my ear. i giggle and lay my head in his chest. "i wish we could stay like this forever." i say as my draw fake shapes on his chest. "Me too. i would do anything just to stay like this with you. But you belong to someone. I cant have you." He slowly gets up. "please don't leave me charlie please." i feel the tears from my eyes threatening to come out. "i won't leave you Lila." he wipes the tears from my eyes. "You need to choose. I hate to say that because i want you to be happy." He whispers. Everything starts to fade always as i come back to my reality.

"alright class thank you for the submission of your pomes. I have a new assignment for you guys which is very excite to see." Mr Harp announce. I pay attention to see what he writes on the whiteboard. I feel eyes staring at me from the side. i turn to my left and see Charlie staring at me. I smile and give him a little wave. His face got a little red due to me catching him staring. i look down at my hands and laugh a little. "we are gonna start duets." Mr Harp claps. Maybe this could be my chance to talk to him. "The two of you will write a song together and preform it in front of the class." I hear some groans and huffs from students when he said we'll perform it. "alright now up up and go look for a partner." He turns around and sits back at his desk. i grab my bag and start to head over to Charlie. "hey." i smile. "hi." "do you have a partner?" i ask. "umm no uh nope not at all no." he rambled. i laugh at his nervousness. I wonder why he's nervous. if anything i should be nervous. "you wanna work together?" i ask softly. He nods his head and i take the seat next to him. i see him blush and smile to himself. "i have a song that's not finished. it's meant to be a duet, we can finish it if you want to." i dig in my bag to try and find my notebook. "Here you can read through and if you don't like it we can come up with another song." i hand him my notebook and flip through the page where it says 'Perfect Harmony'. 
                          
Charlie's POV:
I read over the few verses she had and it was good. She's very talented. I can tell she was nervous about my opinion on her song. "you wrote this yourself?" i ask as i looked up at her. She nods her head lightly and bites he nails. "it's good Lila. Like really good." i smile as i hand her back her notebook. She lets out a small shaky breath and smiles. Her smile could light up this whole room. Her shyness and her nervousness was cute to witness. Although i never talked to her i knew she was a very shy girl. "Are you going to Xander's party tonight?" she asked. "oh yea umm my band is playing there." i nod. "cool i finally get to you play." she says. i smirk and chuck at her. "i mean uh your band." she corrects herself as she lets out a nervous laugh. The bell rings and she walks out fast mumbling a few words. Crap! i forgot to ask her when we should finish the song. I quickly run out as i try to find her through the sea of people. I finally spot her with her two friends at her locker. "Lila!" i call out. she looks around to try and find me and i jog over to her. "hey sorry i forgot to ask when you want to work on the song?" i said kinda of our breath. "oh umm maybe Saturday. Here's my number text me if anything comes up and we can reschedule." she said as she took out a marker and write down her number. I smile at her friends as they laugh and giggle and whisper to each other. Girls am i right. "Here you go. i'll see you tonight." she hands me the piece of paper and smile. "hey baby." i see her 6'1 boyfriend pull her close to him. "hi Even. this is Charlie we're working on a song together." she introduces me. i gave him a nod. "sup bro your in that band right, that's playing at Xander's party?" he asked. "yea." i answer. "cool i'm anyways we have to get going. see you around bro." he says turning him and Lila around. She looks back and gives me a wave. God she's too good for him.
