The other bands congratulated them for their spectacular performance. "Thanks," James said, grinning at each of them. They were shuffled to backstage as the Window Girls were getting ready to perform.
"Good luck," Bert said to them.
"Thanks!" Oakley said.
The boys nodded, smiling at them. "Great job, boys! You had a great performance that starts off the show," Toby said, walking over to them after announcing the Window Girls.
"We are the Window Girls," they heard Braelynn say.
"And we are singing Dynamite by Taio Cruz," Anika said.
"Where is that coming from?" Chad asked in wonder.
"A TV," Alexander said. "Duh. It's right there."
Alexander pointed to the TV in the room they are in. "It's there so we could watch the others perform," Bert said logically.
"Rudenesses," Chad said, grinning. They sat down at a couch to watch the girls.
"I came to dance-dance-dance-dance (Yeah)

They started clapping even though the girls couldn't hear them. "That was pretty good," James said.
"It was," Bert agreed.
"They certainly are major competition," Alexander said and they all nod.
Soon, the Window Girls come back to backstage. "You guys did great!" Aaron told them.
"Thanks," they all said, smiling. "You guys were great as well!"
The boys nodded. They watched the other performers, who weren't as good as them or the Window Girls. "Alrighty," Toby said after everyone came back to backstage. "Let's go back home."
They get in the buses, Bert looking out the window.
They quickly made it back to the mansion. Everyone walked inside to see the rest of the bands waiting for them. "You wanna grab the first movie for Harry Potter, some food, and head back to our room?" Alexander asked all of them.
"Of course!" Bert exclaimed.
"Harry Potter doesn't look good," Jane's complained as they walked to the library.
"Harry Potter hater!" Alexander and Bert yelled at the same time. They made it to the library and Alex and Bert practically run to the section with Harry Potter in it. They grabbed the first disc and heard an agonizing wail. They ran over to where they heard it and saw Chad on the ground.
"WHY?" he yelled. "WHY ISN'T THERE THE TWILIGHT MOVIES?!"
"Woah dude," Aaron said. "I didn't even know you like Twilight."
"I LOVE IT! I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DON'T HAVE IT!" he yelled.
"Okay calm down," James said. "I'll buy it off of Amazon for you."
"You will?" Chad asked with hope in his voice.
"Yeah."
"My life is complete," Chad said, standing up.
"Hey Chad and Aaron," Alexander said, "wanna go get the food while James, Bert, and I go set up the DVD player?"
"Sure," Aaron said as Chad yelled, "FOOD!"
Chad ran off with Aaron following behind, laughing. "So, do you know where the indoor cinema is?" James asked.
"Do they?" Alexander asked, implying about their food loving friends.
"Probably not," Bert said.
"So let's stay here until they come back," James said. They waited and waited until finally Aaron and Chad came back.
"Uh guys?" Bert said. "Where's the food?"
Aaron and Chad looked at the tray and only saw a few crumbs. "It's invisible," Chad informed them.
"Totally invisible," Aaron said, nodding.
"You ate it, didn't you?" James asked smiling. "Wow, you two are such hogs."
"That's a compliment!" Aaron said while Chad nodded.
"Bert and I will just go get more," Alexander said. "You want us to meet you in the theater?"
"Sure," James said, already walking away from Alex and Bert.
Alexander and Bert walked to the kitchen with the tray Chad had. They grabbed a bowl of potato chips and popcorn. "I wonder where the indoor theater is," Alexander said.
"Let's try to find it." And they set off. They searched the entire house until they finally made it to the theater. They walked in and found their friends watching the opening credits of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.
"Guys!" Bert said. "You started without us?"
"No," James said. "Its the opening credits. You haven't missed anything."
"Whew." Bert wiped fake sweat off his forehead as him and Alexander sat next to the other boys.
They passed out the food and got comfy. The movie started playing and Bert and Alexander high fived. "This is one of my favorite movies, guys," Alexander said. "Its right below God's Not Dead and God's Not Dead 2."
"Same!" Bert said.
Soon, the movie was nearly over when Bert was the first to fall asleep. Next, it was Alexander. Then Chad. Then Aaron. It was only James awake for the beginning of the third movie. He looked at his friends and grinned. "Night," he whispered to them before falling into a dreamless sleep.
