One Last Dance

One Last Dance (Chapter 39)

LAURA's POV:

Ross was sitting on a stool on a stage with a guitar in his lap.

Rydel was in the background standing in front of a microphone.

"Hello everybody," Ross greeted us. "As a lot of you may know, I asked Mr. Hammer if I could take up a few minutes of your spare time and he wisely agreed."

What was he doing? Did this have to do with his little plan Rydel and Vanessa were telling me about?

"I wrote this song about a special girl six years ago after I made a horrible mistake."

I rolled my eyes. Oh boy.

"I tried to catch her at the airport with this song before she left for college, but I was too late."

He looked me in the eye. I gulped. What was he trying to prove now?

He continued. "Now, she's standing before us right now and I think it's time I shared this song with her before it became too late again... This song is called One Last Dance."

He started strumming his guitar.

🎶"Tear drops stain your hazel eyes

I can't believe I made you cry

It feels so long since we went wrong

But you're still on my mind

Never meant to break your heart

Sometimes things just fall apart

So heres one night to make it right

Before we say goodbye

So wait up, wait up

Give me one more chance

To make up, make up

I just need one last dance

Freshman year I saw your face

Now its graduation day

Said we'd be friends, till the end

Can we start again?

So wait up, wait up

Give me one more chance

To make up, make up

I just need one last dance

Na na na na oh-oh

Na na na na oh-oh

I heard you're heading east

So lets just make our peace

So when you think of me

You'll smile, and I'll smile

So wait up, wait up

Give me one more chance

To make up, make up

I just need one last dance

So wait up, wait up

Give me one more chance

Just one song, then I'll move on

Give me one last dance

I just need one last dance... with you"🎶

A tear escaped from my eyes. He wrote that about me after our prom?

Ross walked off the stage and up to me. "I almost forgot to tell you. Mr. Hammer wants you back next year for an English teacher! And I got a call from HollyWood Records a few weeks ago. Remember when you performed 'Me and You' at the mall?" I nodded. "Well, they came to watch and they called me to tell me that they want you as their newest artist!"
