Oceanic Descent (Chapter Nine)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
David sat on the roof of the Pasadena hotel that all of the Idol hopefuls were staying at. He was tucked away out of view of the doorway, doubled up, with his arms wrapped around his knees. He hoped that the solitude and night sky would calm the unfocused nagging urge for… something… but what that something was, he just didn’t know.

I swear, I have exactly the same feelings when I'm writing it. It's almost like reading EXACTLY the book you want to read most, and then lending it to a friend and getting to share the story.
Le sigh...
I LOVE that you saw that as a balcony scene. I didn't make the connection, but now, I can see it really is one! Night sky, serenades, deep looks and all.
But I didn't mean it in any kind of self-consciously cracky way at all. I really really care about these characters, these people. They are amazingly real to me, and surprise me constantly.
This chapter just started because I thought David didn't love his second audition song as much as the first. I thought, he'd like sail away. I just put it on over and over and started to write, and the mood filled the chapter.
Honestly, the whole process is a bit like lucid dreaming...
I didn't know there would be a duet, or the beginnings of a mental/emotional bond, that was all as much of a surprise to me as to you. In fact, this was supposed to be a fairly short set-up scene in a chapter that was supposed to cover more events. But the boys, bless their loving hearts, wanted to sing together, and how could I deny them?<3
I'm falling a little bit in love with Cook myself...
