Peridot leaves the chat log already annoyed. Suddenly, they both jump at the doorbell ringing. The both go downstairs to check who it was. They open the door to find Kyan, DP, Barren, and Dan waiting outside.
"Wassup Peri-D!" DP says high-fiving Peridot. Lapis seems unsatisfied as Peridot and the guys giggle.
"Come in guys! I just installed a dance room a couple of months ago, hoping to use it today..." Peridot says welcoming the guys in. She can dance? Since when?! Lapis thinks.
"Lapis, you can come if you want, we're just going to rehearse." Peridot says while leading the guys and herself to the dance room. Lapis nods.
Peridot opens the doors to the dance room which is a pristine dance room.
"Damn Peridot!" Dan says looking around.
"Damn indeed." Kyan says.
"Dance or what?" Peridot says. Lapis walks upstairs into Peridot's room just playing on the console.
"Come on guys, we got lots to rehearse." Barren says. They all nod.
"Any ideas for dancing?" DP asks. The guys start thinking including Peridot.
"Got a couple..." Peridot says smirking while the guys start to get confused.
"Well for the talent show I was thinking, Daft Punk. And for the prom I thought of party songs or songs somehow that gives an audience adrenaline. Not rock music." Peridot says.
"Daft Punk is great! I also heard that the theme for prom was like Halloween." Barren says.
"Then, Michael Jackson and party music after?" Kyan asks.
"Sounds great!" Dan says.
"What about you Peridot?" DP asks as everyone turns their attention towards Peridot.
"Great! Let's get to work. Talent show first since it's the closest due date we got." Peridot says who claps her hands meaning get to work.
6:00 PM
A knock goes on Peridot's door and a handful of doorbells. While Peridot continues to rehearse with the guys, Lapis gets up from the beanbag, runs downstairs, and answers the door. Lapis finds Amethyst, a tall girl with a square afro who goes by Garnet and a smaller girl with the same thing but is named Ruby, Pearl with Yellow Pearl and Blue Pearl, a girl with long bangs hanging over her eyes who is Sapphire, Connie, and a boy with curly hair which is Steven.
"Wassup guys! Come on in!" Lapis says greeting the guests in. The guests start coming in excited and all took a seat in the living room.
"Nice house, Lapis!" Steven says smiling.
"Oh, this is Peridot's house. Not mine." Lapis says.
"Damn! Nerdy Pterodactyl is filthy rich." Amethyst says leaning back in her chair.
"Language Amethyst." Pearl says seriously.
"Calm down sis, let ourselves run wild for once without you being a bird mom!" YP says.
"SQUAWK!" Pearl squawks at YP which makes everyone burst into laughter.
"Oh, geez Pearl... Wait, where's Peridot?" Ruby says wiping her tear from laughter. Everyone looks at each other and shrugs then all attention turns towards Lapis' direction.
"I dunno! Why ya'll looking at me?!" Lapis says in defense.
"You're her girlfriend! You should know!" Amethyst says.
"WHAT THE HELL?! NO!" Lapis says nodding no and turning red from being flustered. YP, and BP sigh in relief.
They talk for a little until they hear music playing in the background with some man-made beats upstairs in Peridot's room. They all sneak with Garnet being behind the silent ninja crowd so she could run away first. They peak in through the door crack seeing Peridot sitting on the biggest beanbag, and the guys on the other beanbags with Kyan sitting on the ground.
Ooooooh~
The sneaky ninjas become more interested as Peridot harmonizes and hums. Then the guys start stomping on the floor which made some beats with two of the guys doing the instrumental with their vocals.
When she was just a girl she expected the world
But it flew away from her reach
So she ran away in her sleep and dreamed of
Para-para-paradise, para-para-paradise, para-para-paradise
Every time she closed her eyesPeridot sings as the guys continue the acapella instrumental then move on to the piano room where it holds a bunch of instruments. The crowd follows behind without being noticed. Peridot quickly grabs the microphone and electric guitar as Dan takes the drums, DP takes the piano, Barren does the violin, and Kyan helps with the background voicing in the cover of the song. Peridot starts dancing.
When she was just a girl she expected the world
But it flew away from her reach and the bullets catch in her teeth
Life goes on, it gets so heavy
The wheel breaks the butterfly every tear a waterfall
In the night the stormy night she'll close her eyes
In the night the stormy night away she'd flyThe crowd gets more interested and invested into the amazing singing and cover of "Paradise." They still go unnoticed but continue listening. YP and BP fangirl silently.
And dream of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradisePeridot and Kyan started dancing while singing as the guys smile. Lapis warmly smiles at Peridot.
She'd dream of para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradiseOooohh!
La-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
And so lying underneath those stormy skies
She'd say, "Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
I know the sun must set to rise"Peridot slides on her knees.
This could be para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradiseThis could be para-para-paradise
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohPeridot does a solo on the electric guitar which impresses everyone. Then the guys started singing along.
This could be para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradiseThis could be para-para-paradise
Oh oh oh oh oh oh, oh, ohThis could be para-para-paradise
Para-para-paradiseThis could be para-para-paradise
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ohThe guys including Peridot breathes heavily then makes joyful noises, proud of the cover.
"Good job guys! I'm ver-" Peridot gets cut off by a standing ovation only given by Amethyst and Steven which startles the four guys and Peridot.

A/N:
Hey guys! 10th part, with more than 60+ views. I'm liking it so far... Also, since Peri-D and the four guys are assembling a dance group, I was hoping to take any suggestions from you guys on the group name. Any would be a great help. Have fun, and...
Bai.
