For A Reason

I awoke to find that Wesley was gone. “Where’s Wes and Nick?” I asked Joe, who was eating his breakfast. “I think they’re out in the bus,” he replied.

So, I went down to the bus, where Wes and NIck were playing a song I had never heard before.

“Emily!” Nick said, “I’m so glad you’re here! We wrote a song, but it’s not totally finished. Can you help?”

“Sure!” I was so surprised, and happy. I changed some of the lyrics and helped them add more to the song.

“Wait. I have an idea,” I told them. I ran to the back of the bus and grabbed Kevin’s guitar. I played a tune and then looked at Nick and Wes, who were just staring at me.

“I made that up a while back, and I’ve had it stuck in my head ever since. You think it would go with the song? Is it good?”

“It’s perfect!” Nick exclaimed, “It’s just what we needed.”

Wes excitedly smiled and nodded.

“Okay, let’s try it out,” proposed Nick, “The new and improved version of For A Reason.”
