Dream POV

'Sometimes, all I think about is you

Late nights in the middle of June

Heat waves been faking me out

Can't make you happier now'

I'm singing the song me, Sap, and George planed with Leo but of course, he ditched us. I'm not really surprised at this point, he has been complaining about practically everything, from times of practice, to lyrics, just anything you can think of, he's been complaining about it. He was always hanging out with some chick, he'd always invite them to practice just so he could hook up with them afterward. He was an ass anyway so I'm kind of happy he left.

Usually, I put

Something on TV

So we never think

About you and me

I look at George when I sing 'you and me' and wink at him. He always gets all flustered when I do this, so I love doing it in front of a crowd to make him all red. My plan works and he turns as red as a tomato making it visible to anyone in the room. We never publicly said anything about our relationship yet but it's there and the fans do ship us. I don't have anything against coming out to our fans, George already told his family, they were mostly supportive, but I haven't told anyone in mine. I didn't want my sister to blab to our parents and tell the rest of the family, so we just did everything at his place. I never liked being secret but I just couldn't tell my parents, they seem like nice people when it comes to that sorta topic, but I don't know if they would accept me and George's relationship.

You can't fight it

You can't breathe

You say something so loving but

Now I've got to let you go

You'll be better off in someone new

I don't wanna be alone

You know it hurts me too

The lights on the stage change colors with the mood of the song. Every drop in the mood it would turn blue, every upbeat part it would turn any bright color they had, making the stage flash in bright colors, making me feel more upbeat and move around the stage, messing with both George and Sapnap, but not enough to make them uncomfortable or mess up but just to get them hyped. I love being on stage, it feels like a second home, like I can be who I am without being judged. I've missed it here.

Sometimes, all I think about is you

Late nights in the middle of June

Heat waves been faking me out

Can't make you happier now

As I'm dancing around the stage I see Karl watching us from the side of the stage. I hate him, I hate him so much. Not because he's our biggest competitor but because he hurt Sap. He left Sap to shit and left him nothing! He never said goodbye to him; he just started ignoring him and replaced him with Quackity. He doesn't deserve Sap, He doesn't deserve anything. I swear if he hurts anyone else I don't know what I'll do but it won't be good.

Road shimmer

Wiggling the vision

Heat heat waves

I'm swimming in a mirror

We end the song. I hear the crowd go crazy over it, and I have a good feeling we're going to win. I say thank you and walk off stage, running into Karl.

"You were really good I guess" he breathed out.

"You weren't" I roll my eyes and walk away, Sapnap stays for maybe 3 seconds longer until he walks away also, George mumbles "you too" and rushes over to us. "Let's get something to drink."

Quackity POV

"You ok," I ask Karl, he just shrugs and goes back to where Skeppy, Bad, and I were at, leaving me behind looking at the stage. The people playing were good but it wasn't my style of music so I started to head back until I heard laughing in a hallway.

I'm nosey I won't lie, so when I heard it I got intrigued on who it could be and what they were laughing about. I turn the corner and see Dream, Sapnap, and George talking in the hallway.

I've always had a bad feeling about Dream, he never sat right with me. That's why when Sapnap started hanging out with Dream more I tried hanging out with Karl. I didn't want him to get hurt by Dream but I never stopped it. Every chance Dream got he hurt Karl. Now it's payback.

Sapnap and George left to get something, leaving Dream alone in the hallway. This was my time to get payback. He hurt me, Karl, everyone! They're just too blind to see it. I'm tired of this I just-

"Quackity c'mon they're going to announce the winners!" Karl says and drags me to the stage, Bad and Skeppy hugged, then Skeppy went with us to the stage and Bad went back into the crowd.

'I'll get him next time.'
