Okay so today is May 16 aka the talent show and I am really nervous because me and Toby have been practicing for a while and we can't get the part where I slide under him right.

"Ugh Come on Ave, we have been doing this all day and we haven't gotten it right once" Toby complains

"I know it's just hard. Maybe on stage it'll be different because the wood is easier to slide on" I say and he nods

"I hope so-" he is cut off by Marley the stage director. "You two are on in five" she says and we nod.

Five minutes later...
"Okay students and faculty. We are gonna kick off today's talent show with two of our best dancers. Give it up for Toby and Avery!" Tori says. Tori is the president of the student council so she announces things and all that.

Me and Toby walk on sage and get into our beginning poses. We nail every move and it's time for the slide. I run and do a side- Ariel and then successfully slide under him. The crowd claps and roars for us and we bow and walk off stage.

"That was awesome!" I say while hugging him and he returns it and then kisses me. It lasts for a while until Adam clears his throat.

"Eh- hem there are other people here ya know? You guys did great" he says while hugging both of us.

"And now we will have Adam Daniels singing hello by Adele!" Tori says and me and Toby are shocked. Adam walks on stage and sits down by the piano. He starts playing beautifully and then he starts singing ( watch the video above to see what he sounds like):

Hello, it's me
I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet
To go over everything
They say that time's supposed to heal ya, but I ain't done much healing

Hello, can you hear me?
I'm in California dreaming about who we used to be
When we were younger and free
I've forgotten how it felt before the world fell at our feet

There's such a difference between us
And a million miles

Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart
Anymore

Hello, how are you?
It's so typical of me to talk about myself, I'm sorry
I hope that you're well
Did you ever make it out of that town where nothing ever happened?

It's no secret that the both of us
Are running out of time

So hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart
Anymore, ooooohh
Anymore, ooooohh
Anymore, ooooohh
Anymore, anymore

Hello from the other side
I must've called a thousand times
To tell you I'm sorry for everything that I've done
But when I call you never seem to be home

Hello from the outside
At least I can say that I've tried
To tell you I'm sorry for breaking your heart
But it don't matter, it clearly doesn't tear you apart
Anymore
