Thank You Boys

- the bands back together - 

I go home with julie, I promised dad id talk to him tomorrow, but I needed one more goodbye. goodbye to the boys who changed my life, and the boy who was my first real love.  

we get out of Julies car, us her dad and Carlos singing as we walk up to there house. 

Whatever happens
Even if I'm the last standing
I'ma stand tall

we reach the front door and laugh. "You two and your Phantoms were unbelievable tonight. You know, I'd like to thank them for bringing music back into your life." ray says smiling  "I already did. But I didn't thank you, Papi." julie says hugging her dad, he opens his arms and I join there hug again "thank you fro everything mr Molina" he smiles "call me ray"  

"Hey, Julie, uh, can I talk to you for a second?" Carlos says, "Yeah. Yeah, um, just give me a minute." julie responds "Okay, I'll wait up. Don't ghost me." he says winking at us, we look at each other shocked and he walks into there house completely unbothered.

"just a minute" julie turns to her Dad "Okay. Love you." he says  "Love you too." 

julie takes my hand and we walk to the studio door, neither of us want to open the door "this feels like deja vu" I chuckle slightly. eventually julie opens the double doors and we stare into the darkness. "I know we already said it but thank you guys" she says. "and I love you luke" I smile. 

"your welcome" we hear a strained voice reply. 

"Dude!" I hear lukes voice and rush to tuen on the lights, by the feet of the piano I see the three boys, they look weak, broken. I rush to lukes side. "Why... Why are you here? I... I thought... " I say looking at them, julie is knelt by reggie and Alex as they are git with another jolt and they all groan in pain. "No... no! I thought you crossed over. Why didn't you cross over?" I say holding lukes hand. 

"I guess playing the Orpheum wasn't our unfinished business." he says  "Point Caleb." reggie says sitting up.  "We wanted you to think that we crossed over, so we pretended to." Alex says.  "We just... We had nowhere else to go." I start sobbing  "We thought you'd go straight to bed." reggie says looking at us. "Yeah, well, I knew she was gonna come out here, but nobody ever listens to me." Alex strains making me and julie chuckle slightly, "touchy subject Alex" reggie says. 

"You have to save yourselves right now. Go join Caleb's club." julie says starting to cry.

 "Please. It's better than not existing at all. Please just go. Go! Poof out! Do something! Please. Do it for me." I say looking at Luke 

"please" julie adds helping reggie up. 

I grab Luke and help him up, "we aren't going back there" 

"No music is worth making, guys, if we're not making it with you. No regrets."

julie throws her arms around Luke and I join them, but this Time, julie can touch Luke, she doesn't go straight through "how can I feel you?" julie asks. "I... I... I don't know." Luke says, he turns to me "I...  I feel stronger." julie signals for Alex and reggie "Alex, Reggie, come." they join the group hug and we all pull together, the boys start glowing and laughing "Whoa... I... I... I don't feel as weak anymore." I wipe my tears away and so does julie "Yeah, me neither. Not that, you know, I was ever that weak." Alex says making everyone laugh. suddenly the boys arms start to glow and their stamps, float away. 

"what do you think that means?" julie asks

"I think the band's back." reggie says and we all laugh jumping together into another group hug. then Luke lifts me up and pulls me into a deep kiss. 

"I love you too camilla Wilson" 

I smile and look to the others 

"WE PLAYED THE ORPHEUM BABY!!!" I scream and together we all jump around yelling and celebrating, the boys aren't gone, the band is back, ad we are all happy. 

- the next day - 

(no point of view)

nick walks up to the front door with a bouquet of flowers. 

"How sweet. The lovesick teenager baring gifts for his girl." Caleb appears behind nick

"Do I know you?" he asks looking at Caleb 

"You will." he says. 

Caleb grabs his face and a cloud of purple smoke floats into nick, he's been possessed  

"I have a fight too" Caleb says through nick" 

then julie answered the door. 

"NICK" she says throwing her arms around his neck and kissing him. 

"these are gorgeous" she takes the flowers from him. 

"did you want to come in?"...
