chapter 5 teaser.

don't think this is gonna be up by thursday, but as always, i'll try.

"It does [suit you]," he says softly. "Chopin's kind of... sad, sometimes. Romantic without meaning to be... it's gentle, soft. Sometimes people don't realize how much there is to it because it's quiet, because it sounds nice, fades easily into the background. But there's a lot going on under the surface that you don't really see or feel until you play it."

He doesn't know where the words are coming from; maybe it's just music, a language on its own, separate from English, separate from the part of his brain filled with empty, human words, all the things he wants to say to Ryan and can't.

Maybe... maybe this says more.

"Music is everything to you, isn't it?" Ryan says without looking up.

Brendon blinks back a sudden prick behind his eyelids. "Not everything."

You're telling me. This is the sorest I've ever been! And the worst thing is that, while I was in the class, I was totally thinking, "Omigod. This is the absolute easiest 'workout' I've ever done!" And then I woke up this morning. *groans*

Ugh.

Oh, and then, when my friends were like, "Um. Yoga?", I couldn't even explain why I wanted to go!! (I'm not sure that half of them are aware of my... err... reading preferences.)

Also, I've somehow convinced myself that I'm actually enjoying this yoga shit and I'm going again tonight. *headdesk*
