Nick and I walked back to the room and set up. My guitar was already there and so was Nick's keyboard. Mike showed up in a couple of minutes and so did Beverly. We got started pretty quickly after Bev and Mike saw the songs.
After a few hours, we sounded even better than what we did the previous night.
"I think that's good, guys." Nick said, after I stopped singing the last note.
"Me too, Nick!" Bev exclaimed, batting her eyelashes. I whipped my head around and gave her a look. Then, I remembered what Nick said about me.
This time his words were more like knives than a soft cloud comforting me. You need to have more confidence in me. Or did he mean to say "You need to have more confidence in yourself?
"C'mon Lei, party in an hour! Its almost 5 o'clock!" Nick said, knocking me out of my thoughts.
I looked around and blushed to see that everyone had already packed up and I was left standing in the middle of the room.
"You ok?" Mike asked.
I nodded and followed them out of the room.
