David called an emergency Warbler meeting Thursday afternoon. We found David with a nervous looking Daniel in the Library.
David and Thad had been the 'behind the scenes' leaders. Since their probation, I was entitled as the leader only by title. Behind the scenes, I meet with David and Thad in the dorm rooms to discuss Warbler situations and problems. Only I am the one who announces the final decision. Thad and David might've told everyone of the situation they were in hence why they were silent as David and Thad resumed their leader role.
"We have a problem." David said. "We have been rehearsing for weeks, but it has come to our attention that Daniel has been a bit nervous of the whole thing. I cleared it up with Daniel. And he has chosen to give up his role as the lead."
"What?" Thad exclaimed. "But Regional's is this weekend."
"I know." David said. "And I think since he might choose to leave us, Sebastian should take the lead."
"What?"
"You'd be great." Thad said "Since this might be the last time your performing with us. It's only best if you sing lead."
"And I know what song we should sing." David said with a smile. He looked to Nick and Jeff.
Come on, stand, up again
Stand, you're gonna run again
Jeff pulled me to my feet.
Don't give up,
You're gonna see tomorrow.
The other Warblers joined in. I had the strange feeling of being circled around.
That you'll be on your feet again.
Thad wrapped his arm around my shoulders. Singing and swaying me side to side
Sometimes the world's gonna knock you over
But you will see who are your friends
Thad dragged me into formation with the other Warblers and I couldn't keep the smile off my face.
Come on, stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
Nick sang the next verse happily dancing and the other warblers broke formation dancing randomly.
Your faith and patience will be your soldiers
To guide you through your troubled times
Just put one foot in front of the other
The battles are inside your mind
Then Trent looked at me in the eye with a happy and serious look. He was directing the next lines at me.
You have the power to face your demons
No matter how they go at times
And rid yourself of your fear and weakness
So you can start to live your life
I had this feeling that I was being manipulated. But I didn't care I joined in as we sang the chorus.
Come on, stand, up again
Come on, stand,
Stand, you're gonna run again
"Come on"
