Damen woke up early in the morning. He quickly changed into his track pants and out the Vans on. Then he went into the bathroom. Looking in the mirror he could see his now shorter, spikier hair lying flat. All the blue parts were now pointing to his forehead. A scar from the last fight he was in was on his chest. Right underneath the scar was a tattoo of a dragon. The tips of the wings that were tattooed on his back were on his shoulders. His muscular arms were tattoo free.....For now. He looked at his abs. the six-pack he had during school was now hidden by a little fat. He turned away and headed outside. This whole summer he had forgotten to do his morning run. Now he was going to start again.

            About an hour later Damen was back at the house finished with his run. He went inside and back p to his room. Besides him there was no other noise in the house which meant Nick was still asleep. When Damen got to his room he checked the time, 7:30 am. He threw off his shoes and track pants and put on his swim trunks. Then he grabbed his guitar and went down to the pool in the backyard. He sat by the pool's edge and started playing.

I never thought I would, did it - Never thought I could - I did it like that - Did it like this - Did it like everybody knows - That we got something real, Shorty - I know what I feel - Shout it like that - Shout it like this - Listen up everybody knows - But you - So here it goes

I guess I never really noticed - Took a while for me to see - Playing back the moments - Now I'm starting to believe - That you could be at the show and know everyone - But it's you who makes me sing - And I know where we are and I know who I am - Baby, I'm your biggest fan

            Damen suddenly stopped. He realized he didn't remember the rest of the song. He tried hard to remember but he couldn't think of it. So he started playing a different song.

How it happens - I don't care - If it's rainin' - Or what I wear - I know today is taking me - Where I'm meant to be - Doesn't matter where I go - With my bowling shoes - And my rock star phone - I'm waiting for a friend to call - Or the rain to fall

Life goes by - Who knows why

I can't wait for the world to spin - I can't wait to be happening - Ooh, what's it gonna take? - I can't wait for the time to come - When I'll be shining like the sun - I can't wait (I can't wait)

Bum - Bum bum bum - Bum bum bum - Bum bum bum - Yeah

Everybody has their day - Where things just seem to go their way - An angel's gonna - Smile on me - When it's meant to be - ‘Cause anything is possible - No matter how incredible - You never know who I might meet - On this crowded street

Life goes on - Like a song

I can't wait for the world to spin - I can't wait to be happening - Ooh, what's it gonna take? - I can't wait for the time to come - When I'll be shining like the sun - I can't wait

I haven't got forever - And I haven't got all day - Oooh I don't want my world to stay the same - So where's the magic moment - To carry me away

I can't wait for the world to spin - I can't wait to be happening - Ooh, what's it gonna take? - I can't wait for the time to come - When I'll be shining like the sun - I can't wait

I can't wait for the world to spin - I can't wait to be happening - I can't wait

I can't wait

            Damen put the guitar down away from the water. Then he slid into the pool letting the water cover him. It was cool and felt good against the morning heat. He started swimming laps and after he did 50 he got out and dried off.
