I Know The Shame In Your Defeat [Cerys]

i will catch you if you fall

Jacob was bored. There simply wasn't any other way to phrase or word his feelings. He didn't really fancy the scary things that were on offer right now, seeing as he would prefer to do it in the night. He would get more of a thrill from it, plus he was technically a child of the night to begin with. Everything was better when the sun was setting, in his opinion. He dodged lumps of snow that were being thrown everywhere, holding his matted-black guilt in one hand and a steaming hot cup of coffee in the other. That, at least, meant that his bare hands were frozen off from the cold although had turned quite pink in shade. He was trying to be warm and comfortable more than fashionable today. He wore a beanie on his head so only the front of his flattened brown hair was exposed, a Nike hoodie and pair of sweats for pants. He was just that he was warm.

The children if Apollo sure where talented, and great in Jake's mind. He sat of the side of the small stage, not wanting to rush it or anything. If he got on stage, then he got on. It was just a laugh, right? Something to do during this celebratory period at camp. There was quite to crowd around the front of the stage, most clutching hot drinks of their own. Jake was just glad that it had stopped snowing, even though he was Canadian and pretty used to it.

"Dude, you're up." Grinned the Apollo boy as he got off the side of the stage, clapping Jacob on the shoulder and moving passed him. Jake took another quick sip of his drink, trying to to scold his lips or tongue before making his way into the view of the audience. Two microphones sat in front of him; one for his vocals and one for his acoustic guitar. He could see, from here, the amplifiers nestled beneath trees and bushes and covered In the smallest layers of snow, as if recently removed. Letting his fingers strum at the strings to make sure it was tuned and the amps were working, Jake finally cleared his growth and raised his eyes to make contact with the crowd. "Uh...hey. I'm Jake and...well, do you all know who Ed Sheeran Is?" He asked nervously, hearing a few affirmative shouts from the people but nothing big. Sheeran was only just started to explode In America, after all, and most he knew were only just discovering him. "Well, uh, this Is his song 'lego house'. I hope you enjoy it." Nodding his head once, Jake started to play the first notes of the song, eventually adding both his vocals and enthusiasm.
