Song: Drag Me Down - One Direction

Mike stood onstage at the talent show.

He was really nervous.

Nothing this, Ike grabs his hand, squeezing it softly as the music starts playing.

Ike was singing first.

Ike: I've got fire for a heart,

Mike noticed Hotshot's jaw drop, gaping at Ike.

Ike: I'm not scared of the dark

Mike nudges his twin, smirking.

Ike: You've never seen it look so easy

Ike smirks, shooting Hotshot a wink.

Hotshot blushes.

Ike: I got a river for a soul, and baby, you're a boat
Baby, you're my only reason

Ike: If I didn't have you there would be nothing left

Ike looks to his twin, who smiles.

Ike: The shell of a man who could never be his best
If I didn't have you, I'd never see the sun

Ike puts his arm around Mike's shoulder, making a motion as to look at the sun with his hand.

Mike smiles.

Ike: You taught me how to be someone, yeah

Mike takes a deep breath.

Mike: All my life, you stood by me

Ike squeezes his hand again.

Mike: When no one else was ever behind me

Mike saw multiple people, including Newsies, students he didn't know, and teachers, gawking at him.

Mike: All these lights, they can't blind me

Ike smiles when he notices. His brother had a really good voice.

Mike: With your love, nobody can drag me down

He made eye contact with JoJo.

Ike joins his twin.

The Guzman twins: All my life, you stood by me

Ike was starting to get more pumped up, causing him to start bouncing on his toes.

Mike, Ike: When no one else was ever behind me

Mike had to hold back his chuckles.

All these lights, they can't blind me

The twins did take note of the fact that the lights shining in their eyes were very bright.
