The date was changed for the talent show which gave us time to practice. It was tonight, my mom must have taken the week shift. "I'll pick you up in 10 minutes." James told me. "Ok, I'll see you soon. " I said. we hang up. I got ready and started to practice my parts. A few moments late I got an anonymous text. 'hi' the text said, I texted back. 'Who is this?' I asked.  'Someone.'  it answered back. 'This isn't funny' I texted. There was no answer for a while. Then James came in. "You ok?" He asked me. "Yes, I'm fine." I told him. I still wanted to know who that was.

"Amy." James Said. "Yes?" I answered him. "Promise me if this man shows up, you'll let me by your side. James said firmly. "I don't know." I told him.  "please I can't lose you." He said placing his hands on my head looking into my eyes. I started getting teary. "I promise.' I told him.  He nodded and took my hand as we went to the car and left to the talent show. 

10-15 minutes later 

We got there Amber was on stage getting ready to sing. We gave her a thumbs up. 

The Only Exception

''When I was younger
I saw my daddy cry
And curse at the wind
He broke his own heart
And I watched
As he tried to reassemble itAnd my momma swore
That she would never let herself forget
And that was the day that I promised
I'd never sing of love
If it does not exist, but darlin'You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception Maybe I know, somewhere
Deep in my soul
That love never lasts
And we've got to find other ways
To make it alone
But keep a straight face And I've always lived like this
Keeping a comfortable, distance
And up until now
I had sworn to myself that I'm content
With Loneliness Because none of it was ever worth the Risk But, you are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception I've got a tight grip on reality
But I can't let go of what's in front of me here
I know your leaving in the morning, when you wake up
Leave me with some kind of proof it's not a dream, Oh You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception
You are, the only exception And I'm on my way to believing
Oh, and I'm on my way to believing.

ohhh oh wooo ohh yeah. ''

Everyone clapped for her we were all excited and proud of Amber. Nick whistled and clapped louder than any of us. "Yeah, that's my girl woo!" Nick shouted. she came backstage we all hugged her and smiled. 

[Verse 1: James]

I found a love for me
Oh darling, just dive right in and follow my lead
Well, I found a girl, beautiful and sweet
Oh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes, you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

[Amy:]
Well I found a man, stronger than anyone I know
He shares my dreams, I hope that someday we'll share a home
I found love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be your girl, you'll be my man
And I see my future in your eyes
