A few hours later, Danielle was standing on the right side of backstage, facing Steven, who was on the other side of the stage, waiting for Paige to present the deb's and escorts in order for her to walk to the flower arch and smile at her family, seated at their table.
The tables were placed around the dance floor, and each of the debutants were ment to give their bouquet of flowers to their parents and stand in front of the table alongside their escort.
Danielle mentally hyped herself for not just the walk, but the dance and the performance with her friends.
On the other side of her, Steven caught her attention by waving at the girl. He then pointed to himself and drew an air heart and pointed to Danille. "I love you." He then mouthed.
She repeated the same gesture before mouthing back, "I love you, too."
"Danielle Fisher is a young woman with many talents. She spends her free time singing and dancing with her school group, one day dreaming of making a carreer out of it. Winning the fundraising volleyball tournament and supporting a number of other charity foundations, she has raisen almost $10,000 in donations." Paige spoke into the mic.
Danielle began making her way to the middle of the stage where the flwer arch stood, Steven imitating her actions on the other side. The two men under the arch, facing forward as someone took a photo of them before apporaching the family table.
She handed her mother the flowers she had before hugging her, Susannah leaving a kiss on the girl's temple. "You look beautiful, my dear."
She smiled back to her mother and to her brother and her friends who also sat at the table before going to stand next to Steven. Once she was, he took her hand in his and squeezed it before he walked to the middle of the floor. He and Jeremiah said that all theescorts prepared a dance number. Danielle knew it would be the most iconic moment of the night when 'I Like That' by Bazzi began to play. Everyone proceeded to stand and cheer the escorts.
Before they started dancing, Danielle saw Laurel leave the ballroom with her ex husband following behind.
Throughout all the sexy moves and smirks towards the crowd, Steven's eyes were only on Danielle. To him, she was the most beautiful girl in the room.
By the end of it, everyone was clapping and cheering for them. They all did amazing and Danielle almost forgot she and her group needed to perform. Steven quickly kissed the girl before her and her friends walked on stage, standing behind their respected mics.
"Before we start, we just want to thank the Country Club team for giving us this opportunity tonight to play for you all. We really hope that our music and the ball itself can make us all forget about any other worry in the world and just enjoy the night as it is." Danielle spoke into the mic first before sending reassuring smiles to the girls.
The background music began to play, Danielle focusing on the back track to concentrate. 'Stuck In The Middle' ment everything to the girls as it was their first song they've ever written together.

Oh Woah
All this time we've been together
Oh
And I still don't know how you feel
Woah
Sometimes I wish you'd just talk to me
Maybe it's make believe Maybe it can be true
I try to tell myself I'm not in love with you
I thought that I know everything (Thing)
I guess I don't know anything, yeah.
I get emotional (Yeah) And hypothetical
Wondering if there are all kinds of things
I'm not suppored to know I try my best to let it go (Leggo)
Baby then you bring me back Bring me back
You lift my feet off of the ground
Keep me spinning around and around
I don't ever wanna come down From your arms
You tell me that you need me Then you walk away
Keep promising forever With the words you say
It's true (True, true)
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
I'm stuck in the middle with you you you
With you you
Oh boy you got me really confused
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
I'm stuck in the middle with you
You were the spark Light in the dark
Gave you my everything (Ha)
Pulling me in Pushing me out
Pulling me back again (Ha)
Don't know if your mind is made up
But I know that nobody wanna be stuck (Ha)
You are the one that I want
All I can promise you now is my love
You say you want me (Want me)
You say you care (Care)
When we're together (Together)
Are you even there
And you Gave me the keys to your heart
Yeah you Made me believe from the start
Now all that I know is I got this love I won't take back
My love My love My love My love
You lift my feet off of the ground
Keep me spinning around and around
I don't ever wanna come down From your arms
You tell me you need me Then you walk away
Keep promising forever With the words you say
It's true (True, true)
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
I'm stuck in the middle with you you you
With you you
Oh boy you got me really confused
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
I'm stuck in the middle with you
I've tried and I've tried to be good to myself
Good for my health
Is it selfish If I'm constantly turning to you To you
If you knew what I'm feeling right now
You'd comfort my heart
You tell me~ Yeah~
You tell me that you need me Then you walk away
Keep promising forever With the words you say
It's true~
It' true (True, true)
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
Oh
I'm stuck in the middle with you you you
With you
With you you
You
Oh boy you got me really confused
Don't know what I'm supposed to do
I'm stuck in the middle with you.
When the girls finished, they recived a standing ovation from the crowd. However, Danielle's eyes followed Jeremiah walking out fo the ballroom. She looked over to the table, Belly and Steven looking as confused as she was, Conrad wasn't very focused on his brother at the moment. He looked over at Danielle with his eyes filled with... guilt?
A door then slammed. "You knew it! You fucking knew it!" Danielle excused herself from her friands and ran off the stage, Hanni following behind her. Jeremiah, crying, rushed over to Conrad and began punching him. Hanni pulled Danielle back so she wouldn't get swung on. The two were fighting in front of everyone.
Steven finally seperated the brothers as Danielle made her way to them. "What's wrong with you guys?" She whispered loud enough for her brothers to hear her, knowing they were getting stares from everyone in the room.
"Did you know? Be honest, Danielle." Jeremiah turned o his little sister, devastated. His hair was messed up and his face was covered in tears
"What are you talking about?" Susannah asked, still a little scared about what the answer was going to be.
"Mom, we know."
