White Horse

I sighed. School today was going to be horrible! I had my fight and Breakup with Jake on Friday and now Today was Monday.
Another week! A new day! I kept telling my self that. Thats what kept me through the day.
But then right before school started I saw Jake in my last class (He was in my last class), with his Big brown eye's, Cute little Freckles, and Amazingly good looking brown hair for a boy! It made my heart melt. I just felt like Crying!

RING! The school bell went off. I got all my stuff together and got out of my seat. I glanced at Jake while I put on my backpack. He was writing something down for the teacher. He looked so cute. He must have sinced me looking at him cause he looked up from what he was doing. He noticed me and gave me a shy smile. I gave him a weak smile.
I could feel the tears burning in my eye's to come out. I turned my heads and walked out the door before Jake could notice. I didnt want him to know that I wanted to get back together with him and missed him. I didnt want him to also know that I thought it was a mistake that we broke up. I wanted him to think I was strong and didnt care!

I went to my Locker and saw Casey and Prudence waiting by it.
I tried to give them a smile as I walked up to my locker.
"Hey" I said acting like nothing was wrong.
Prudence looked at me with her Big Brown eye's and then she gave me a BIG bear hug. Soon after Casey joined.
"How are you?" Prudence asked.
"Fine I guess." I told her.
"I'm soo sorry! If you want Callie, Casey and I can go over to Jake and give him a pice of our minds!" Prudence said getting ready to walk down the hall to go find her sister.
"No! It's fine! Trust me. I dont want to make a big deal out of this" I told her.
"But this is a BIG deal! He basically cheated on you!" Casey said shaking my arms.
"I know. But then again he wasnt actually...." I said wondering off.
Casey looked at my face and then at Prudence. They seemed to be thinking the same thing!
"You are going to Forgive him are you?" Casey asked me with a serious face. Prudence had a serious face on to.
"Well not entirally! But Maybe. Now that I think of it I did kinda over react about the whole thing." I said as I looked at my shoes.
"No you didnt! He cheated on you! You didnt react enough!" Prudence said.
But I miss him, I wanted to say. But instead I just shrugged.
"Hey I'll catch up to you later!" I told them as I turned towards the hall to go to the girls bathroom.
They waved to me and then walked away.
I walked a little bit more until I saw Jake! He was wlaking down the hall! He was coming towards me!
I didnt want to get into another fight with him! Actually I didnt even want to see his face! Cause if I did I would Most likely start crying. And I did not want him to see me CRYING!
I was finally at the girls bathroom door. I looked back at Jake on more time. He got a sad face. I wonder why He gave me a sad face?
I had relized that it was because I was crying! I didnt even relize it! He saw me CRYING!
I quickly went into the Girls bathroom and looked to see if anyone was in there. Nobody was!
I looked in the mirror. I fixed my Mascara cause it was running from me crying. I couldnt do this evrytime I saw him!
The only thing that was going to help me was

CHORUS

I fast walked down the hall to The Auditorium. I opened the door and walked in. Everyone looked at me. Apparently they had heard that I had broke up with Jake.
EVERYONE HAS!
I smiled at them, to show them that I was okay and strong.
Casey waved at me. She had saved me a seat by Prudence, Molly, Callie, and Her.
I walked over there and sat down.

"Hello little singers!" Mrs. Hodge walked into the auditorium and sat down her bag.
"Hey mrs. Hodge" everyone said.
"Before we get started I was wondering if any of you would like to sing a song?" Mrs. Hodge asked us.
My hand went up. Without stopping myself it had went up!
Before I could put it back down Mrs. Hodge said "Oh Elizabeth! Good! You may go up on stage and sing"
I looked at Prudence and Casey. They gave me a smile.
"What do I sing?" I was clueless.
"Sing a song about what your feeling right now" Casey told me and Prudence agreed.
I got up and walked up on stage.
Everyone looked at me, including Jake!
I tried to think about what song I should sing. I GOT IT!
I went over and whispered to the music guy what song I wanted.
I went to center stage and grabbed the Microphone.
The Music to White Horse by Taylor Swift (BTW awesome song!) started to play.

"Say your sorry, that face of an angel
Comes out just when you need it to" I singed into the Microphone. The Chorus group looked at Jake and then back at me. Jake looked kinda mad. Probally cause I was singing this song about him!

"As I pace back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you" I sang. I looked at Casye and Prudence. They high fived eachother and gave me a big smile and thumbs up. I smiled back at them.

"Holding on
The days drag on
Stupid girl,
I should have known, I should have known" I singed.

"I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell" I sang. I finally looked at Jake. He looked really mad. GOOD!

"This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you
And your white horse, to come around" I singed and wlaked around the stage.

"Baby I was naive,
Got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance" I sang. This song was just the wya I was feeling right now! I DID get lost in his eye's!

"My mistake, I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams
About you and me
Happy endings
Now I know" I sang.

"I'm not a princess, this ain't a fairy tale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet,
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood, this is a small town,
I was a dreamer before you went and let me down
Now it's too late for you
And your white horse, to come around" I looked into the audience. I smiled.

"And there you are on your knees,
Begging for forgiveness, begging for me
Just like I always wanted but I'm so sorry" I sang to Jake. I didnt care who noticed! I just had to tell (or sing) him this!

"Cause I'm not your princess, this ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday who might actually treat me well
This is a big world, that was a small town
There in my rearview mirror disappearing now" I sang right to him!

"And its too late for you and your white horse
Now its too late for you and your white horse, to catch me now" I sang.

The music got a little slower.
"Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late
To catch me now" I sang.
The MUsic got slower and slower and then stopped. Everyone cheered for me. Mrs. Hodge smiled and cheered. Prudence and Casey gave me a HUGE smile and I gave it right back to him.
I looked at Jake. He was clapping. HE WAS CLAPPING! What! He wasnt suppost to BE CLAPPING!
Whats up with that!
I got off the stage and as I wlaked by Jake I gave him a smirk. He smirked back. It looked like he was going to do something, like grab my arm and pull me towards him. But he hesitated and desided not to do it.

I went over to Prudence, Callie, Molly, and Casey. We all hugged!
I felt good! I didnt feel like crying! It felt like nothing ever happened! Maybe I just needed to sing that song to get all the crying a sarrow out of my system.
