Tommy had just about done it! After about thirty minutes, he completed his daughter's hair, it was teased and had dyed pieces of red in her dark brown hair, her makeup was perfect, her outfit was godly and she looked like a rocker.
He smirked proudly and high-fived her, "You ready to get up there and sing dude?" He asked, she just whined a little and head-butt his chest, "Daddy, no reminding me, that was our deal!" She pouted, "Oh - right, forgot about that," He chuckled, taking her down to his car and giving her hand a gentle squeeze.
By the time they got to the town hall, she saw her friends getting ready, hair all done up and all looking very very very 80's, a few of her friends looked like Cyndi Lauper or Olivia Newton-John.
"Where's that bloody boyfriend of yours?" Tommy asked, looking around, "Here!" Kelly - her boyfriend called, running over, "Hey man! Dude, you ready to belt that shit?" He asked - moving out the way when he saw Mick and Nikki walk in.
"Yeah dude! This is gonna be awesome!" Kelly cheered - arms up in the air, he saw the other two and ran over to them.
"I got you dudes, come on, follow me," Kelly took their hands and lead them to their seats, than he grabbed Tommy and lead him off too.
Now it was just her friend and Kelly with her in that room.
"I'm sweatin' bullets," She said as she sat with them in the backstage area, "Me too," The Olivia-look-a-like said, sighing a little.
"You girls got this! Belt that shit!" Kelly said, fist-pumping them, "And babe - you got this just as much dude, you may be a guitar goddess, but tonight you're a singer," Kelly said, holding her hand, "Same shit, just with your voice," Kelly smiled, taking her to the stage behind the curtain.
The director all looked at them and adjusted their positions quickly and gave them all the thumbs up before running off.
The following video goes with this story -
Each singer up on stage had their time to sing a piece of the song, Tommy was sitting with Nikki and Mick, smiling the whole time and nodding his head in time, it went down the line and straight after Kelly's incredible high-notes, was Myla's heart-warming angelic voice, she was shy so the whole thing was smooth and buttery, not too much excess pipes, her voice was so sweet it rung out of the microphone, Tommy smiled widely and nodded his head in time to the song.
As it got to the chorus, everyone was singing on stage together, including the audience when prompted by the director who made sure everyone had a lyric sheet in their chairs, they all sang along, the whole town hall was bousting with music and symphony.
"It's true, we make a better day, just you and me," Myla ended up giving some extra flavor now that she had had time to get over the fears of singing on stage, she was holding Kelly's hand as they swayed together while singing duet as the others were singing chorus in the background.
As the song rung out, everyone clapped and cheered as the students bowed and all got off stage, meanwhile Myla sighed loudly as she got back to her family, "My legs, are jelly," She said making them chuckle as Tommy gave her a big hug, "What the hell? I didn't know you could sing!" Brittany huffed, "Me neither, that's as good as it's gonna get," She giggled and watched as Kelly was humming the melody and checking his phone.
They sat outside together - Mick, Brittany, Tommy, Nikki, Kelly and Myla all sat together as Kelly was singing multiple songs that night, checking his phone as he sang, not even paying attention to them as they watched him sing.
"God you're good," Nikki smiled, "Thanks man," Kelly said and smiled as he saw his mother come out of the town hall holding his baby sister, "We are the ones!" she was singing sweetly, giggling as she sang the song, "Aww, pumpkin," Kelly smiled and held her in his arms as they sang together.
"So cute," Tommy chuckled, Myla joined in and they were harmonizing together.
