《Normal is boring》28
Advertisement
I'm kind of nervous. Jax and I are sitting on the bed, the one that nobody did sleep on. The team is standing in front of us, they are talking for a bit, waiting until we are ready. The camera is standing in front of them, to make sure the girls aren't on the camera. We said to them we are recording this for our Youtube channel and that we will upload it later tonight, without the parts where you hear them talking or where they aren't standing behind the camera.
"Well. Hey people." I say. The talking volume goes down a bit, the interest is going to us.
Mom and mama are looking very proud to us, I mean, we didn't even start.
"Hey, we are Jax and Alex. We are going to play nine, sis, nine?" Jax asks me, dumbass, we can't count that well, "No bro, we are going to play ten songs for you tonight, he's a dumbass, I know. Well, we is my brother. " I laugh, the others chuckle too. Jax is looking a little bit mad.
"After that it's time to go to your rooms, I think." I say. Jill nods, confirming that's time to go to bed after that. It's like 8.30 PM now.
"Well, let's begin. This is St. Patrick by PVRIS (pronounced as Paris, like the capital of France)."
Jax plays the guitar in this one, in the middle I do some filling, otherwise the song sounds way too empty, that's what we thought.
The moments that he begins to sing, I see some surprised faces. Jax has a kind of high voice, while I have a deep voice. Jax sings this lyrics alone, I do some back vocals, but nothing more. If we do that, we make the song to big for a acoustic version with only our guitars. When we have a piano or drums, we can do more with the vocals.

When we end the song are the girls excited for me, that's what we hear. I hear some people day 'DAMN', or 'your kids are good tho' or 'that are my cousins'.
"How sounded that girls?" I ask. They answer with a mix of shouting/yelling, laughing and applause.
"I guess it sounded well, time for some Dutch music, English lyrics. The World can Wait by Waylon, performed by Alex and Jax." Says Jax, looking at the camera. Giving them some attention, otherwise it's kind of boring. I laugh thinking of it.
I start the guitar in and begin singing. This time the girls do the same, their jaws dropped.
( italicize is Alex, bold is Jax and normal is both )
I've been chasing dreams
Burning time
Both hands of the candle are flying by
Finally it's just you and me
Away from everyone telling us what to be
Outside they scream
Those crowded streets
And I love the silence when you're next to me
And baby the world can wait
Just hold on tight
Don't forgot to breathe
And leave it all behind
Make it all worth while
Spend the day wrapped up in this moment
Don't let it slip away
Baby the world can wait
Baby the world can wait
And baby the world can wait
Let's hold on tight
Don't forgot to breathe
And leave it all behind
Make it all worth while
Spend the day wrapped up in this moment
Don't let it slip away
Baby the world can wait
Baby the world can wait
Just swear to me baby
When life get's too crazy
We'll stop
And baby the world can wait
Just hold on tight
Don't forgot to breathe
And leave it all behind
Make it all worth while

"When you have your jaws picked up from the floor.....", says Jax, "I want to tell a little story about the song we played a few seconds ago." The girls are after a few seconds completely silent.
"Well... The World can Wait is one of the songs we never played for a audience. Today we felt we just had to play it. We never played it, because normally it's one of the songs I played for my sister, Alex, when she had anxiety. After our mother died, she had some really bad days, anxiety and she suffered from depression. I would play songs for her to calm her down, to make her feel home and loved. But one of the things that helped the most, were listening to Ashlyn, when she talked. She had, and has, a impact on Alex, Ashlyn, mama, I can never thank you enough for that. After Ash and Ali became our family, she is herself. She is happy, she can be happy and we are lucky to have you two, Krieger and Harris, as our mothers. We love you, please don't forget that." Jax says. I see some tears rolling in the girls eyes.
"Don't cry please. We didn't even play our most emotional song." I joke.
"You are just too good in making people cry tho." I hear Allie say.
"I second that Harry." Says Tobs. I laugh, did me make THE Tobin Heath cry?
Yep.
We did.

Do you wish you could wake up inside the mind of your favorite anime character? Well, our hero certainly did. From the moment he first laid eyes on (God's Favored Arcanist); An Isekai story centered around the adventures of sixteen-year-old Masato Yamajita as he traveled throughout the world of Echeron. And Masato had it all; He was a once in a millenium genius known as the (SSS-class Arcanist), capable of wielding every element- and using them to their fullest potential- seemingly without effort.
