Uma-"well... Ahh"

Mr.Jason-"haha I got you. (he said laughing then pointing) you were actually going to pick one(he calmed down and cough to bring him back to a professional state) sorry, sorry. Well you can just let Me know by Friday if you'll do it okay. "

Uma-"Thanks mr.Jason. I appreciate it"

Mr.Jason-"yeah off course, just promise me you'll really think about it. I would really like you to sing."

Uma-"okay Will do mr.Jason."( she smiled and went to Joy)

Joy-"What was that about?"

Uma-"Mr.Jason wants me to sing at the dance."

Joy-"and?"

Uma-"and what?"

Joy-"what did you say?"

Uma-" didn't answer I started getting all panicky and then he said I had till Friday to give him an answer."

Joy-"Well you have to do it."

Uma-"What! No I don't."

Joy-"Come on you have an amazing voice Uma. And you would really make my night perfect."

Uma-"I don't know Joy."

Joy-"Hey it's okay to be afraid. Just don't be afraid forever or your voice will never be heard. And your voice is to special not to be heard."

Uma-"thanks Joy, but I really have to think About this one. I mean I barley wanted to go, and if I agree to sing I have to go."

Joy-"Well then I won't bother you about it anymore, now come help with the rest of the decorations. "

Uma-"okay."(she chuckled and they went back to there seat)

Raven-"Harry did you see that? Why did Uma get pulled behind the current?"

Harry-"I don't know, can we please just focus on the task."

Raven-"No!" (she hits him behind the head)

Harry-"Ouch. That hurt"

Raven- "well I'm sorry I just really want to know now"

Harry-"Then go ask her"

Raven-"Harry, I don't like her, and she does not like me. But you get along with the both of them." (she began to make puppy eyes)

Harry-"Fine! I'll ask." (he starts walking towards Uma and Joy when he was interrupted by a fellow classmate named Amber. She's not the brightest but she sure knows her fashion)

Amber- "Harry!"

Harry-"Oh uh hi Amber"(he tried to get around but she moved the same way he did so he didn't escape)

Amber-"I need your help"

Harry-(he sounds anxiously scared, distracted and looking at Uma) Uhhh, with what Amber?"

Amber- "I can't figure out why the light's won't go on."

Harry-"did you plug them in?"

Amber- "of course I did Harry, I'm blond not stupid."

Harry-(he finally looks her in the eyes) "Did you try changing the light bolts?"

Amber-"For all these lights?! (she held up the whole pack of lights) Honestly Harry sometimes I wonder if I'm the stupid one." (she began to walk away)

Harry-"what? (he said confused then got back to his mission and walked toward Uma) Hey Uma (He looked in the eye, then looked at Joy) Hey Joy"

Joy and Uma-"Hey" (there both into there work)

Harry-(he looked back at raven and after seeing her already looking at him with a serious stare he began to speak) "Hey are you okay,(Uma looked up) I saw that you were called on to the stage."

Uma-"Oh yeah everything's fine" (she smiled and kind of laughed)

Harry-"Then why did Mr.Jason call you?"

Uma-"Uhhhh.... He said something along the lines of asking me if I could sing at the dance." (she said concentrating more on the task)

Harry-"What did you say?"

Uma-"Joy run this to the Mr.Jason, this are some more supplies' that we need" (she handed her a note )

Joy-"Okay, see you around Harry(she walked away)

Uma-"I'm sorry Harry (she took a break from her work) what was it that you asked?"

Harry-"Oh no that's simply fine, I asked what was it that you said?"

Uma-"What was it that I said about what?"

Harry-(realizing she wasn't paying very close attention to the conversation) "About the singing thing. Are you going to do it?"

Uma- "oh right, I told him I'm not sure. That I had to think about and I have till Friday to give him an answer."

Harry-"Oh okay, well bye"

Uma-"wow, wow, wow, wait! That was it? You stopped me just to see what happened behind a current and if I said an answer to the singing thing"

Harry-"Yeah that was kind of it,unless you wanted to talk about something else"

Uma-"no, I mean, I just wasn't expecting that."

Harry-"Oh, okay well I have to go my partner (he said pointing to Raven) is flagging me down l, telling me to go over there.

Uma-(she looked back at Raven then turned back to Harry) "oh so your Majesty awaits"(she chuckled)

Harry-"yeah, kind of like that I guess" (he struck his hair back with his hand)

Uma-"Well hey, I'm not going to stop you, have fun."

Harry-"Thanks, bye Uma" (he waved bye)

Uma-"Bye Harry." (she felt sorry for him, but she couldn't do much about it so she got back to work waiting for Joy to come back)

*Joy went looking for Mr.Jason to give him the note but on her way she heard something coming from the band room. It sounded like a guitar. She walked toward the door and opened it slightly so she could see who it was. She didn't see anybody, she only heard a guitar that followed a voice singing.*

??????- (ignore the introduction by Shawn Mendes. That's not part of the story) "All I am is a man
I want the world in my hands
I hate the beach
But I stand
In California with my toes in the sand
Use the sleeves of my sweater
Let's have an adventure
Head in the clouds but my gravity's centered
Touch my neck and I'll touch yours
You in those little high-waisted shorts, oh

She knows what I think about
And what I think about
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about, no

'Cause it's too cold
For you here and now
So let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater

And if I may just take your breath away
I don't mind if there's not much to say
Sometimes the silence guides our minds
So move to a place so far away
The goose bumps start to raise
The minute that my left hand meets your waist
And then I watch your face
Put my finger on your tongue
'Cause you love to taste, yeah

These hearts adore
Everyone the other beats hardest for
Inside this place is warm
Outside it starts to pour

Coming down
One love, two mouths
One love, one house
No shirt, no blouse
Just us, you find out
Nothing that I wouldn't wanna tell you about, no, no, no

[2x]
'Cause it's too cold
For you here and now
So let me hold
Both your hands in the holes of my sweater..."
