Amethyst POV


After the riot with the assholes, we became more determined to let those idiot eat crap and lose in the competition. We have been practicing for two days, sleeping a tleast 2 hours only and  proceeding with the rehearsals. It is hard but we believe the sacrifice would be worthy if we'll see those BEFORE YOU EXIT CRAPPERS cry blood til they die, losers, idiots, suckers, ugggghhhh! I hate them!

"One more round" shouted Athena.

"Hit it!" shouted Adreanna

"1,2,3 go!" Cami

I took a chance and thought I'd have a fair shot at it
If this is life well then it's worth the pain of living it
I'd do it again, do it again
I'm not the same well now I've changed
I'm ready for this
You think I can't? Well you thought wrong
I'm born for this
I'm breathing it out, breathing it in
Not giving up, not giving in

Here now, right now, I'll give the best I give

When the stars align
We are one tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Whoa, whoa, whoa
We're crossing the headlines
And we are one tonight
Whoa, whoa, whoa


I played the piano like there's no tomorrow. I did some head bang.  We're cool and we will win! I'm sure of that!

Oh don't you take for granted! Don't you know that
you're blessed with-
Opportunity, comes once in a lifetime
You've waited long enough, it's patience, patience and
you'll have your time
You left giving more than taking, learned more than you
taught
Well thank you, thank you! I'm renewed and now it's all
I got
Breathing it out, breathing it in
Learning to fight, learning to win


You went away, a thousand miles away
I know you're doing fine
All I want is for you to be mine
Tonight


All I want is for him to be mine.. I remember the man in the park.. The doggy man.. I mean the man who have the same interest as mine, pets. I cant remove him from my head.. He caught my interest. He's different from the other guys I've met. Though I bet, I will never see him again. Because of the rehearsals, of course. After the attacks of the Crappers, we had been rehearsing even more. Tonight, in our first battle, I am a bit nervous but excited to wreck the heart of that crappers.


"Amethyst!" someone shouted.

I look at the place where the voice came from but what I saw are stars. I was hit by a flying drumstick.

"Damn it, Cami!" I complained, holding my forehead. I think I had a bump!

"Sorry dude, you weren't listening!" she shouted back and shrugged.

"What's bothering you?" asked Zoe.

"Are you nervous for tonight?" Athena asked.

"Actually, no" I answered.

"What's the problem then?" Cami asked.

"You" I hissed.

"Seriously?!" Cami shouted at me.

"Are you thinking about a boy that you meet from here?" asked Zoe.

"How d'ya know!" I shouted, panicking. Did she know about it?

"Why are you shouting!" Adreanna said.

"Guilty" all of them shouted at me.

"Im not!" I replied.

"Denial queen" Athena grinned.

"Acutally, yes.." I said, showing a poker face.

"Caught you!" shouted Zoe, giggling.

"Really, how did you know?" I replied.

"Cause, i met someone too." Zoe replied, trying to whisper it but we heard it clearly.

"Oh, you did too!" Adreanna laughed. 

"As if you didn't" Cami replied to her.

Adreanna just looked at Cami sternly.

"Oh snap it! Don't worry I did too." admitted Athena. 

We all smiled. At least we're normal, if Athena did it, we're cool.

"How about you Cami, haven't met someone that caught your weird taste?" Adreanna asked.

"I slept with him" Cami shrugged.

Our eyes went wide looking at her.

"What?! I just SLEEP!" Cami shouted at us.

"You always sleep" we replied in unison.

We all burst out laughing.


Connor's POV

Two days have passed since the Before you enter shitters pranked us. I can't forget that day. And  the competition for tonight will be our revenge. I can't take this, we're the coolest band in town, no one can beat us. I believe that!



Sometimes she can be unpredictable,
like an earthquake suddenly out of control.
A sweet disaster dancing in the parking lot.
I know she's special, but inside she thinks she's not.

Maybe someday,
some way she'll see.

She's the best thing,
best thing that has ever happened to me-eh.
I know we'll make it through if we belie-ieve.
She'll see I always want her to be,
right here next to me.

When she smiles I don't know what is left from right.
Plaid shirt, mini skirt, that's what makes her fine.
She breathes out, I breathe in. It's a perfect fit.
She blows my mind and she doesn't even know it.

Maybe someday,
some way she'll see.

She's the best thing,
best thing that has ever happened to me-eh.
I know we'll make it through if we belie-ieve.
She'll see I always want her to be,
right here next to me.

I know she's a gamble,
and I'm falling all in.
Call me crazy in love,
but she's worth taking the risk.

On my way to believing it all and all.

She's the best thing,
best thing that has ever happened to me-eh.
She's the best thing,
best thing that has ever happened to me-eh.
I know we'll make it through if we belie-ieve.
She'll see I always want her to be,

She's the best thing. The girl in the park, the one who almost killed Tank but still turned me on. Her face, her eyes.. Oh sweet! She's perfect in her jeans and sneakers. I always daydream about her. I'll find her, I'll search everywhere just to see that lovely face again and..

"What the hell!" I shouted as a drumstick hit my head, I rubbed it, trying to ease the pain.

"What were you thinking? You're like a 13 year old guy daydreaming about his history teacher ripping off her clothes in front of him" said Thomas.

"Gross you are," Riley said to Thomas and throw one empty can of soda to him.

"Dude, were on the ending and you're playing the first stanza, what's with you?" Braiden asked me.

"Nothing man, sorry... I was just .. hmm never mind" I replied.

"Are you thinking about a specific lady? because if you do. I feel you man" Toby said out of nowhere.

"So this is about some hot chicks?" Thomas grinned. 

"This is different.. She's different" me, Riley, Toby and Braiden replied in unison and looked at each other shocked.

"Are we in love with a single lady here?" I asked.

"Never dude, I always doubt your taste" Riley replied.

"How about Thomas taste?" we all look to Thomas and believe it or not, he's lying on the floor, snoring..

We all laughed and wrestled him..
