The Player (H.S AU)

The play

LACEYS POV

My stomach was churning with excitement. I was about to go onstage as Sandy. The last week we have been practicing like crazy, and some nights Harry and I would work late at night rehearsing songs and the script over and over. I look across the wing to see Harry there with his hair sleaked back up in a quiff. I must admit he looks rather funny. I then look out into the crowd and see my mom there with my brother next to her. She had a hard look on her face but Cole looked like he was enjoying himself. The last week had been fairly hard for us but we have been getting through it. Then I see Anne, Harrys mum make her way over to sit by my mum with Robin and a girl by their side. They all sit in a row and engage in conversation. I smile to myself as I look over at Harry who paced back and forth.

"Hey." A small voice then said from next to me. I turn to see Rebecca. I look and see her in a pink ladies uniform.The girl who was supposed to play Frenchie is sick, so the drama teacher offered Rebecca the part.

"Hi." I say with a smile.

"Oh my God." Rebecca muttered.

"What's wrong?" I ask her.

"T-thats my dad. He has never been to one of my shows before." Rebecca says as she points to a man with a suit on.

"Oh. Well that's cool he came." I tell her.

"I guess. He is really judgmental." She tells me.

"You'll do fine Rebecca. Trust me." I smile at her.

"Thanks." She says with a smile. Before I knew it, our drama teacher was onstage introducing the play and then it was time, time to sing.

"I got chills, there multiplying, and I'm loosing control, cause that power your supplying, its electrifying!" Harry sang. I then turned around a sang him my part.

"You better shape up cause I need a man and my heart is set on you, you better shape up, you better understand, to my heart I must be true." I sang.

"Nothing left nothing left for me to do." He sang back. We then ran around the set as we were about to sing together.

"Your the one that I want! oo-oo-oo honey! The one that I want! oo-oo-oo honey!The one I want oo-oo-oo the one I need, yes indeed!" We sang together.

"if your filled with affection your to shy to convey, better take my direction , feel your way." I sang to him smiling.

"I better shape up, cause you need a man" He sang.

"Who can keep me satisfied!" I sang.

"I better shape up, if I'm gonna prove." He sang.

"You better prove, that my faith is justified." I sang.

"Are you sure?" He sang.

"Yes I'm sure down deep inside!" We both sang.

" Your the one that I want! oo-oo-oo honey! The one that I want! oo-oo-oo honey!The one I want oo-oo-oo the one I need, yes indeed!" We sang about four more times. We finished as we looked into each others eyes. I smile as everyone claps for us. The whole cast then ran out on stage as we sing we go together.
