Serene Feeling;; open

[Will Beckett]

Will got in his slightly beat up car, and backed out of the driveway. The sun was heading west, meaning it was later in the day. Will checked his watched; it was 4 o'clock. He rolled down the window and let the warm air hit his face as he rushed down the Los Angeles boulevard. It was a Friday night, and Will had nothing else to do, so he continued to drive. He drove wherever his car decided to take him, the movements of his hands on the wheel were subconcious as he just stared out the winshield. When his foot finally found the breaks, Will realized he was at the beach.

Of course his car would lead him here. It was his favorite place to go when he felt lonely, sad, or just plain bored. He left his shoes in the car as he got out. Will opened the back door and pulled out his acoustic guitar. He slung the strap over his shoulder and started to walk along the shore line, letting the sand squish between his toes. After strolling along for a bit, he found a nice spot with a little bit of grass. He sat down and started to strum his guitar. After he played the intro, he started to sing softly:

When I see your smile
Tears run down my face I can't replace
And now that I'm strong I have figured out
How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul
And I know I'll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It's okay. It's okay. It's okay.
Seasons are changing
And waves are crashing
And stars are falling all for us
Days grow longer and nights grow shorter
I can show you I'll be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all (through it all)
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you're my, you're my, my, my true love, my whole heart
Please don't throw that away
Cuz I'm here for you
Please don't walk away and
Please tell me you'll stay, stay

Use me as you will
Pull my strings just for a thrill
And I know I'll be okay
Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall
I'll stand up with you forever
I'll be there for you through it all
Even if saving you sends me to heaven

[Brooklyn Gellar]

4 O'clock; Friday night; What better to do than spend your afternoon at the beach? Well, perhaps partying...but that was beyond the point. Brooklyn Gellar walked down the beach shores carrying her sandy flip flops in her right hand; her swimsuit matching them, of course. Today had been fun, lot's of her friends had joined her as they'd hung out on the beach...not to mention she'd definitely gotten a nice tan and she'd scored the winning point in her game of volleyball.
But now, all of that was over. There was a game tonight; football. And she, being a cheerleader, was required to go. It was going to be fun, but that meant that all of her friends (especially those boys that would be playing in the actual game) had to leave early, as well as her. So, one by one, they all bailed on her, and she was the last one standing. Now she made the long trek back to her convertible mini cooper....But she was okay with being alone, and she walked down the beach with a smile on her face.
And then she heard it...

"I will never let you fall,
I'll stand up with you forever.
I'll be there for you through it all,
even if saving you sends me to heaven."

That was one of her favorite songs.

A lot of her friends found it boring or cliche' but Brooklyn disagreed. She loved the melody and the message behind it. And sometimes she wished that the people she hung out with could understand things like that...then theyd really understand her...
But she ignore the dissatisfaction and continued to walk, the music getting louder and louder.

After the song had ended, Will continued to play it again, this time without the lyrics. He closed his eyes and let his fingers find the frets on their own. After a while, he opened his eyes again and saw nothing but red. Will realized that it was the colored fringe in his hair, and that it had fallen in front of his face. He flipped his head, moving his hair out of the way. His feet were completely buried in sand, another result of his subconcious habits when playing the guitar. He lifted them out of the sand, still playing the chorus of Your Gaurdian Angel. The tide was coming in and soaked Will's bare feet. He was fortunate enough to have rolled up his jeans before sitting down. If he hadn't opened his eyes, Will probably would have drowned. He could easily get lost in the music, and even play for hours.

When he strummed the last notes of the song for the fifth time, Will pulled the guitar over his head and set it on the sandy beach next to him. The water hit the base of the instrument, so he pulled it far behind him. Will sighed and lay down on the soft sand, listening to the birds calling far above, and the waves crashing on the shore. He closed his hazel eyes, and was close to falling asleep. But, he felt that someone was close and opened his eyes. A brown haired girl was watching him nearby. Will was a bit startled and sat up in the sand. She looked familiar; maybe she went to the same school as Will...
