After a few groups, it was finally our turn! We stood at the front of the class. I gave J the CD and told her the track number. She skipped ahead to that song and the music started playing. I looked over at Jack, he gave me a reassuring smile and I started singing.

[ * =Elsa + =Jack ¤ =Both]

* We'll do it all

Everything

On our own

+ We don't need

Anything

Or anyone

¤ If I lay here

If I just lay here

Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

* I don't quite know

How to say

How I feel

+ Those three words

Are said too much

They're not enough

¤ If I lay here

If I just lay here

Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

¤ Forget what we're told

Before we get too old

+ Show me a garden that's bursting into life

¤ Let's waste time

Chasing cars

Around our heads

+ I need your grace

To remind me

To find my own

¤ If I lay here

If I just lay here

Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

¤ Forget what we're told

Before we get too old

+ Show me a garden that's bursting into life

+ All that I am

* All that I ever was

+ Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

¤ I don't know where

Confused about how as well

* Just know that these things will never change for us at all

* If I lay here

+ If I just lay here

¤ Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

When we finished singing, we were both breathing hard. The class stood up and applauded us loudly. J smiled brightly at us.

"That was just lovely! A+'s to both of you!" She said happily and we returned to our seats. When we sat down, we noticed some girls giggling and looking at us. I ignored them and listened to the rest of the groups songs.

When class was over, J asked me and Jack to stay. We exchanged nervous glances and walked to her desk.

"Yes?" I asked. She smiled sweetly at us and handed us each a paper.

"Every year we do a big end of the year musical. This year, we're doing Grease 2!![love that movie!] I expect both of you to be at auditions on Thursday after school! Don't worry, Mr.Frost, it's after hockey practice!" She said as Jack opened his mouth in protest.
