Taylor walked at a slow pace to Robyn and Mia’s pent house flat. He still was undecided what he wanted to say to Robyn. The night before had confused him deeply. She was on stage singing one of her songs and their eyes didn’t break once. When she walked up to him singing in her, contagious siren voice, the devilish grin she had on her face phased Taylor into seeing something in Robyn he never did before. She still loved him and he knew it. A smile crept on his face when he saw her current boyfriend’s reaction to the fact that Robyn was singing to him rather than Ben. He knocked on the large wooden double door only to find it was already open. ‘Robyn and closing doors’ Taylor muttered under his breath.
‘Hello? Any one home?’ Taylor echoed in the large flat. No one answered him and he thought that he should come back later but something caught his eye. He saw Robyn’s laptop sitting on the counter and walked towards it. He knew it was Robyn’s because it had a ridiculous amount of girly stickers covering the front and a shocking pink key board. He cringed at the thought of using the laptop but made himself touch the sparkly mouse. He knew it was wrong to invade Robyn’s privacy but he couldn’t resist and look through her files. There were still old files containing her college work and he smiled at the whacky names she would give presentations. ‘Stinky Black Death’ ...’Mia taking all the credit’...’Taylor Hanson video.’ He stopped at his name and quickly clicked the file. He looked around him to make sure no one was around and sat at the kitchen stool. As he perched himself on the seat and made himself comfortable he played the video and immediately smiled a chubby faced girl with a short girl with glasses next to her. He immediately recognised the two girls as Robyn and Mia. Robyn had not dyed her hair and had her natural mousy blonde colour hanging on her shoulders. Mia had a thick plate in her hair with a hair band to stop her baby hairs getting in her face. He smiled at how adorable they use to look. He guessed they were about 13-14 years old and watched intently as the two introduced themselves to the webcam.
‘Hey guys, thanks for logging onto Mia&Robyn.com and we hope you enjoy this video we have just finished. It’s about a guy who I saw once last year in a concert. Ever since then I haven’t gotten him out of my head’ Robyn said smiling exposing her bottom teeth braces.
‘It’s true! She knows who he is but he doesn’t know who she is. I’m only really helping her out with the video cause I believe that there is something in her voice that everyone should see.’ Mia said bending down to get her face in the camera and quickly turning away back to the mirror where she was attempting to straighten her hair. Robyn rolled her eyes and continued..’Yeah hope you guys like it’ The screen suddenly went black and an unfamiliar tune comes up. Robyn is in a simple bedroom looking at the camera and begins to sing.
From the early days
I saw your face boy
You told me a line
I knew you were shy
This is what we do
You don't have to be ashamed
Cause we're holding hands walking in the hallways
He was shocked that his picture came up big on the screen and the lyrics to the song danced underneath in a fancy pink writing. He read intently.
You give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know where to run, run, run from you
So I gotta say you give me butterflies deep inside
You give me butterflies
I don't know what to do, do, do without you
Boy, you give me butterflies
Robyn’s voice was so young and innocent. He could tell that she had not had much training at that age, but it still sounded sweet and subtle. The pictures of Taylor were of him when he just cut his hair from really long to mid-length. It was the point of his career when people stopped calling him a girl but a very good looking boy.
I get lost sometimes when you act like a fool
You ignore my words and I can't get over you
This is what we do everyday
I'm in my room on the phone with you
All night long.
He smiled when Robyn attempts to sing in a microphone and move along to the music. Her dance moves were not as perfected as they were these days but still found it cute how she tried. The song was simple and clearly written by a love-struck teenage girl. He smiled and sighed looking at Robyn. He wanted her more than ever at that point. He frowned as the song came to an end, showing a picture of him and Robyn and crowds around them. They were both young looking and Robyn was grinning ecstatically as Taylor had his arm around her shoulder looking into the camera. He tried to remember doing this picture but for the life of him couldn’t. He had taken so many with fans he lost count pretty soon and every girl he had his arm around meant nothing to him and ignored them after the picture was taken. He had no idea that he met the girl he would fall in love with years before they actually properly met. He sat there shocked staring at the frozen image.
‘You know, I can do you for breaking and entering’ a familiar voice said from one of the flats bedroom doorways. Taylor snapped his head back in shock and found Mia leaning against the door frame with her arms crossed. Taylor stumbled up from his seat and looked towards Mia. Her eyebrows raised waiting for a good excuse why Taylor was in her house snooping around the girls stuff.
‘I..I..the door was open? I wanted to find Robyn and speak to her about last night’ Taylor sighed feeling defeated and making his way out to the front door. Mia watched him and shook her head. Once he was a bit of a distance away from the laptop she saw what he was watching and frowned.
‘You watched it huh?’ Mia said with a loud tone so Taylor could hear. He turned from his walk and looked at Mia with a nod. ‘Robyn’s not going to be happy about this’ Mia said.
‘Why didn’t she ever tell me that we had met before?’ Taylor asked confused.
‘Because you were a complete dick after this picture was taken. She didn’t want you to remember her.’ Mia said snapping her head back to Taylor.
‘What happened?’ Taylor asked in curiosity and perched himself on the side of the island in the middle of the kitchen. Mia walked towards him and smacked him off the counter as she tried to reach for the juice. ‘Tell me!’ Taylor asked again with a hint of annoyance in his voice.
‘Okay, but she’s not going to like it!’ Mia sat herself down and continued. ‘After this picture was taken Robyn didn’t want you to go so she slipped her mobile number in your hand. You smirked and crunched up the paper in a little ball and threw it at Ike’s face.’ For a 14 year old girl, that is heartbreaking. Obviously she got over it, but since then she promised herself to never meet her hero’s. They are all just disappointments.’ Mia said and then after taking a sip of her juice. Taylor simply nodded and sighed.
‘I didn’t mean to act like that. I was being handed cell numbers all evening and it annoyed me how every girl wanted a piece of me. I think Robyn’s was the last straw. If i’d known who she was, I defiantly would not have acted as i did.’ Mia nodded back and breathed in deeply.
‘She’s still in love with you, Tay.’ Mia waited for Taylors response. He simply lifted his head up to hers and shook his head.
‘Don’t say stuff like that Mia. It hurts’ Taylor was about to walk out the door but Mia jumped in front of him.
‘You don’t spend every evening with her. She cries herself to sleep some nights and if she doesn’t it’s only because she’s ran out of tears the night before! She carries your picture in her purse and I’ve seen her get her credit card out and pausing at your photo. It’s heartbreaking.’ Mia wanted to convince Taylor that she was telling the truth.
‘Then why did she leave me? If she loves me so much?! You guys won’t answer that one simple question’ Taylor said raising his voice. Mia gave him a stern look then reverted her eyes away from him biting her lower lip.
‘Because the answer isn’t as simple as the question Tay’ Mia said walking away back to her room. Before slamming her door shut she said ‘Maybe if you and Zac weren’t so self absolved the answer would be easy to find’ Taylor looked back with a confused look and made his way out the door. ‘What did Mia mean?’ he thought to himself as he drove back to his hotel.
‘Hello? Any one home?’ Taylor echoed in the large flat. No one answered him and he thought that he should come back later but something caught his eye.
