Effy's POV
A few weeks went by since me and Ryder had sex and things couldn't be better, especially when I walked into the choir room on Monday to the best surprise ever. Sam was sat at the piano. I screamed and ran to him. He lifted me up and span me around.
"Oh my god where have you been? I haven't seen you since August" I enquired, burying my face into the crook of his neck.
"I got lost in the thrills of college. I'm here now though" Sam replied. This was the best surprise ever.
"Why are you here?" I enquired, he set me down. He went up to the board and wrote Theatricality on the board.
"Since Finn and Mr Shue are at the show choir retreat/ planning sesh I'm taking over for the week" Sam laughed. I screamed and hugged him again. The club started filling in.
"Alright guys and gals for those of you who don't know I'm Sam Evans...two times national winner...country singer...and your coach for the week. This week is all about theatricality, your stage presence is everything" Sam explained.
"So...we've got to do what this week?" Nellie enquired.
"Do a number that is so theatrical it is literally mind blowing" Sam laughed. The bell rang...
"Everyone I want a theatrical number from everyone and me, Effy and Ryder will be doing a demo number this afternoon" Sam announced. The rest of the club piled out and me, Ryder and Sam remained behind.
"So what song are we performing Mr Evans" I laughed. It felt weird calling Sam Mr Evans but not entirely undeserved.
"I was thinking of recreating the Applause video by Lady Gaga" Sam explained.
"We'll get working on the lyrics then" Ryder laughed. He took my hand and we walked to lit.

Ryder's POV
I was in a cage, a freaking cage. With makeup smeared all over my face and a white body suit on. I loved the song Applause but I hated the video. Effy was in a green leotard with her hair crimped. Sam was in black lycra pants and sleeves, with wire wings attached to his back with suspenders and his bare chest showing. And Marley had been inducted somehow. She was wearing what gaga wore in Bad Romance. The curtain rose.
"Sam:
I stand here waiting for you to bang the gong
To crash the critic saying, "Is it right or is it wrong?"
If only fame had an I.V., baby could I bear
Being away from you, I found the vein, put it in here
I live for the applause, applause, applause
I live for the applause-plause
Live for the applause-plause
Ryder:
Live for the way that you cheer and scream for me
The applause, applause, applause
Sam(Effy):
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
Give me that thing that I love (I'll turn the lights on)
Put your hands up, make 'em touch, touch (make it real loud)
