Aces & Kings (Short Story)

Part 5

After a couple of songs, they looked backstage and Alex signed them to sing one more song to end the night so they nodded at him.

"Next song will be our last song for tonight," Rain said.

"Hope you'll like it and you'll get the message," Shoyo added while looking at their friends then shifting it to their former team who was still irritated and wanted him to get off stage.

(F**in' Perfect by Pink)

Sho: 🎵Made a wrong turn once or twice
Dug my way out, blood and fire

Rin: 🎵Bad decisions, that's alright
Welcome to my silly life

Rain: 🎵Mistreated, misplaced, misunderstood
Miss No-Way-It's-All-Good
It didn't slow me down

Shin:  🎵Mistaken, always second guessing
Underestimated, look, I'm still around

As the crowd listened to their last song, it made them think if something happened to them and if their former team are related to them and that the last song meant something. While their friends immediately understood the message and thought that they'll finally let go.

Meanwhile the group looked at each other before they sing the chorus.

Aces and Kings:  🎵Pretty, pretty, please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than f***** perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing, You're f***** perfect to me

They smiled at each other then Eita looked at Rain while he sing his line.

Eita: 🎵You're so mean (you're so mean)
When you talk (when you talk)
About yourself, you were wrong

"That's true. Ever since that b**** started the rumors back then, she talks mean about herself" Rin thought.

Then Shin also looked at SunaHina while singing his line.

Shin: 🎵Change the voices (change the voices)
In your head (in your head)
Make them like you, instead

"They do overthink after what they did to us especially our haters" Rain said in her mind.

Rin: 🎵So complicated
Look how we all made it
Filled with so much hatred
Such a tired game

Their friends then looked at the others wondering if they went too far or what else did they do.

Sho&Rain: 🎵It's enough, I've done all I can think of
Chased down all my demons
I've seen you do the same
Oh, oh

As the crowd listened more, they started to tear up while thinking what the group had went through to reach where they are now.

Aces and Kings: 🎵Pretty, pretty, please, don't you ever, ever feel
Like you're less than f**** perfect
Pretty, pretty, please, if you ever, ever feel
Like you're nothing, you're f***** perfect to me

Rain: 🎵The whole world's scared, so I swallow the fear
The only thing I should be drinking is an ice-cold beer
So cool in lying and we try, try, try but we try too hard
And it's a waste of my time
