Love at First Sight: The Switch (kitkat39 & NKL)

[AnimeFan101]

(What was the first song again? )

I looked around the room, feeling a little nervous. I closed my eyes, taking a couple of deep breathes.

[Queen Elsa]

(Whatever you want. I don't think we ever had a specific one.)

I swam up to Melody and whispered in her ear, "If you can't handle looking at them, then just look at me. Pretend it's just the two of us in the cave again."

[AnimeFan101]

(Okay then!)

I looked at him and smiled at him, then I took a deep breath and started to sing,

"We were both young when I first saw you
I close my eyes and the flashback starts
I'm standing there on a balcony in summer air

See the lights, see the party, the ball gowns
See you make your way through the crowd
And say hello

Little did I know
That you were Romeo, you were throwing pebbles
And my daddy said, "Stay away from Juliet"
And I was crying on the staircase
Begging you, please, don't go

And I said,
"Romeo, take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all that's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story, baby just say yes

So I sneak out to the garden to see you
We keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew
So close your eyes, escape this town for a little while
'Cause you were Romeo, I was a scarlet letter
And my daddy said "Stay away from Juliet"
But you were everything to me, I was begging you, please, don't go

And I said Romeo take me somewhere we can be alone
I'll be waiting, all there's left to do is run
You'll be the prince and I'll be the princess
It's a love story baby just say yes

Romeo save me, they're trying to tell me how to feel
This love is difficult, but it's real
Don't be afraid, we'll make it out of this mess
It's a love story, baby just say "Yes"

Oh, oh

I got tired of waiting
Wondering if you were ever coming around
My faith in you was fading
When I met you on the outskirts of town

And I said
"Romeo save me, I've been feeling so alone
I keep waiting for you but you never come
Is this in my head? I don't know what to think"

He knelt to the ground and pulled out a ring and said
"Marry me, Juliet, you'll never have to be alone
I love you and that's all I really know
I talked to your dad, go pick out a white dress
It's a love story, baby just say yes"

Oh, oh,
Oh, oh

'Cause we were both young when I first saw you."

[Queen Elsa]

I strummed the guitar as she sang. I remembered that song. It had been the song I heard her singing when I had lost all memories of her. The crowd cheered at the end of the song. "I told you they would love it. Keep going," I whispered in her ear.

[AnimeFan101]

I nodded then sang another song,

"She was driving last Friday on her way to Cincinnati
On a snow white Christmas Eve
Going home to see her Mama and her Daddy
With the baby in the backseat

Fifty miles to go and she was running low
On faith and gasoline
It'd been a long hard year

She had a lot on her mind and she didn't pay attention
She was going way too fast
Before she knew it she was spinning
On a thin black sheet of glass

She saw both their lives flash before her eyes
She didn't even have time to cry
She was so scared
She threw her hands up in the air

Jesus, take the wheel
Take it from my hands
â€~Cause I can't do this on my own

I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on
Jesus, take the wheel

It was still getting colder when she made it to the shoulder
And the car came to a stop
She cried when she saw that baby in the backseat
Sleeping like a rock

And for the first time in a long time
She bowed her head to pray
She said I'm sorry for the way
I've been living my life

I know I've got to change
So from now on tonight

Jesus, take the wheel
Take it from my hands
â€~Cause I can't do this on my own

I'm letting go
So give me one more chance
To save me from this road I'm on

Oh Jesus, take the wheel
Oh, I'm letting go

So give me one more chance
Save me from this road I'm on
From this road I'm on
Jesus, take the wheel
Oh, take it, take it from me
Oh, why, ooh"

[Queen Elsa]

(Let me know when you want to do "Remind Me".)

I continued strumming along, with the crowd cheering after each song. I had no idea why Melody was so worried. Singing and music are in her blood.

[AnimeFan101]

( How about we do it now? )

I looked at Derek, smiling widely at him. It felt good to be up here with him.

[Queen Elsa]

I swam up to Melody, smiling at her, and started to sing.

"We didn't care if people stared
We'd make out in a crowd somewhere
Somebody'd tell us to get a room
It's hard to believe that was me and you
Now we keep saying that we're OK
But I don't want to settle for good not great
I miss the way that it felt back then I wanna feel that way again

Been so long that you'd forget the way I used to kiss your neck," I began.

[AnimeFan101]

I smiled at him then sang too,

"Remind me, remind me"

[Queen Elsa]

"So on fire so in love. Way back when we couldn't get enough," I continued.
