1x1 with Maggy and Hazel #2

Ellie
"What? All at once?" I asked, crossing my legs beneath me.
(xD)

"Pretty much, yeah. But continued. The saga of lies."Zach sighed."Hey, when did you start calling me Zach?"

Ellie
I shrugged "Dunno, I just find it easier to say than Zachariah." I respond, curious about the saga of lies.

"Well, either that or nothing,"Zach scowled at her changing hus position.

Ellie
"Fine. From now on you will be known as Nothing" I said, with a sly grin.

"Whatever,"Zach sighed.

Ellie
I opened the door and heard a tune being played on what sounded like a guitar. I recognised the tune, but I couldn't put my finger on what it was, then it came to me
. "I've been alone
Surrounded by darkness
use seen how heartless the world can be" I sang walking into the living room.

Zach looked up but didn't stop playing. He frowned. "How come you know the song?"

Ellie
I shrugged "Just heard it before" I smiled. "Anyway its a duet. You have to join in"

"Yeah, I don't feel like it."Zach said.

Ellie
"Don't be such a spoil sport" I complain.

"I am not, I just don't sing,"Zach said, but continued the melody on his guitar.

Ellie
"Please?" I say, pouting slightly.

"Okay, okay."Zach sighed, quickly going over the chorus.

Ellie Douglass
I smiled and sat crossed legged next to him. Waiting until we could start.

"Go."Zach said as the second part started.

Ellie Douglass
I smiled and began singing, hoping he will join in
"Now I know it ain't easy
But it ain't hard trying
Every time I see you smiling
And I feel you so close to me
And you tell me"

"Baby you're not alone, cause you're here with me,"Zach started, unsure about the harmonies there.

Ellie
"And nothing's ever gonna bring us down
Cause nothing can keep me from lovin' you" I sang.

"And you know it's true, it don't matter what'll come to be, our love's all we need..."Zach said, and as the music switched the pace he frowned. "How the fuck do you harmonize this?"

Ellie Douglass
I glanced at him and shrugged "You're the musician" I say.

"Shh, here comes the jazz part,"Zach said.
"I'm pretty sure it's an F# here
I still have trouble
nope no it isn't
I trip and stumble
Trying to make sense of things sometimes...

D?
I look for reasons
IT IS A D
But I don't need 'em
All I need is to look in your eyes
Here comes nothing
And I realize..."

Ellie
I smiled at him trying to get the chords right, I glanced up catching his eye, just as he said Al I need is to look in your eyes... I felt my face flush, making me look down for the next part.
"Baby I'm not alone
Cause you're here with me"

Zach smiled lightly as she screwed up the the note."Go down, honey, I am not a soprano,"he said."Let's go again,"he started the chorus again.

Ellie
I stuck my tongue out at him. I lifted my gaze up as I sang
"Baby I'm not alone
Cause you're here with me"
