Sing: The Era of Music

Chapter 38: A Trip Down Memory Lane

The next morning everyone was in seperate rooms. The Moon Troupe were in the living room and Malcolm, Jimmy and Claudia were with Luna. Chris and Porsha were in their room as she was putting on fresh bandages on his wounds. "Feeling okay?" asked Porsha. "Yeah. It kind of still hurts when I breathe but...I'll live." said Chris. Porsha then finishes up as she sits on Chris's lap. "How are you feeling? I noticed you were standing earlier." said Chris. She then places her arms around his neck. "I feel okay. But Chris, you really had me scared, when DiMarco drove off the edge into the water. You could've died." said Porsha as Chris slightly frowned. "I'm really sorry. Sam, the mother and her kid would've been dead if I hadn't done something. I had to do something." said Chris. "And you saved their lives. But promise me you'll won't do something like that again." said Porsha. "I promise." said Chris. Porsha chuckled. "You know, babe? I was thinking, maybe when this is over, we could...have another kid." she said. "You wanna have another one?" asked Chris as she nodded. They both kissed. "Come on, let's have breakfast. I haven't ate since I woke up from the hospital." said Porsha as they walked to the kitchen, where they met the others. Later, everyone was actually having a good time. Everyone was relaxing, having fun with the kids and doing fun activities. Later in the night, they were laughing. "I still couldn't believe we snuck into Crystal Tower!" said Rosita as everyone laughed. "Yeah and we all hid behind the cart while Meena was driving it. You guys were on my back and I felt like it was ready to give." said Chris as everyone chuckled. "I almost forgot how silly Meena looked as she disguised herself as Ricky." said Ash as Meena blushed. "It was only temporary, Ash." said Meena. "So that was how you guys got to Redshore in the first place, huh?" said Porsha. "Yup and because of Buster saying he 'knows' Clay Calloway." said Chris. "Hey, I wanted to get us to the next level. And it all worked out pretty well, didn't it?" said Buster. "But honestly, Chris. What you did yesterday, saving Sue's nephew, a mother and her kid, that was brave of you." said Ash. Not wanting to take credit, Chris attempts to protest. "But I'm not a hero, my dad and his friends-" "They helped. But when your dad tried to get you out, you told him to save the mother and her kid. Even when your life is at risk, you think about someone other than yourself. You have a good heart, Chris." said Ash, cutting him off. "Wouldn't be the first time. Chris, do you remember when the Theater flooded and I got stuck in the ticket booth?" asked Meena. "Yeah. Johnny and I managed to move the debris and free you guys." said Chris as he was slowly shaking, remembering the traumatizing memory. Then, Meena's eyes were misty. "You saved me, Chris. You saved all of us. If it hadn't been for you, we would've drowned." said Meena. "You're my best friend, Meena. I was so scared when you guys were nearly drowning. You guys are my family." said Chris as everyone smiled. Porsha smiled as she leaned into his chest. "You're a hero, Chris. Own it." said Porsha wearily. Chris smiled as he noticed Porsha was getting sleepy. "Uh oh. Better carry her then, dude." said Nooshy sarcastically. Chris, giving her an annoyed and deadpan look, carries Porsha. "We might as well head for bed, everyone." said Buster as everyone nodded. "G'night everyone." said Chris as he entered their room. Chris took his shirt off, where he sees the bruises and bandages on hid midsection. He laid in bed, thinking about what everyone said of him being a hero. "They're right. I've thought about other people's lives. Even when mine's at risk." said Chris in his thoughts. He then felt Porsha's arms wrap around his chest. He turns to her and sees her sleeping peacefully. Chris smiled as he hugs her tightly and closed his eyes.
