#7: Begin Again
Somehow we met again in Paris, this was totally unplanned! That’s when I asked her to direct my music video for “Begin Again”; she had said yes of course and was shaking excitedly. Little did she know that this song is about her. Well, I thought it was pretty obvious because the guy I used was pretty similar to her; I’m not even lying about that one. He reminded me of her so much; the film camera, the smile, the jokes, everything. These feelings I have for her, got me twisted into knots, and nobody else has got me feeling like this. Nobody… She honestly makes me believe this could work out…even if the last person she loved needed a damn pr boyfriend. (That crushed her badly; I picked up the broken pieces and sewed them better than ever!) She always makes me laugh; she took the time to memorize me, my fears, my hopes, my dreams. She also doesn’t know that most of the songs on “Red” are about her.
She says hi as always with a kiss to my cheek, and my heart begins to thump.
“Hey Cutie Pie,” She exclaims while hugs me tightly, bringing her arms to rest on my shoulders, using one hand to clean the the lipstick stain she left that I want to keep on forever like a tattoo, and the other playing with the little wisps of my hair that she can reach.
“Hi Lamb.” She holds onto me longer than what's actually acceptable and passing for friends, and buries her head into my neck. I can feel her breathing me in, like all the air she'll ever need is in this little space around us. I squeeze her, as she lets out a breathless giggle, that set my own lungs on fire and my ears turn into a rose blush. She pulls away, equally as flushed but with what I come to know as her game face on.
"So, how are we going about this?”
she looks at me earnestly through her honeydew eyes, even with her "game" face on
"Whatever you think would work best, and honestly? Run wild with it. There are no limits on this set."
"Okay! Let’s get started then!” she smiled at me and took my hand with hers.
The shoot goes smoothly and overall was the best I’ve ever done for a music video. And it doesn't help that she’s a really good director which is all the more reason to love everything about her.
“That was great Tay, amazing job.” she smiles softly at me which gives the butterflies, the beautiful kind. Everything I’ll ever need is right in front of me. I watched love begin again.
