Jayk's POV

"It's us," I said to Devin as he got offstage. "You were to remember who went on next."

"Guys, just forget it," said Alexis holding a bedazzeled mic stand with a bedazzeled mic on it. "Our performance is about to be on. Why did Selena have to have this all bedazzeled?"

"We're borrowing it," said Jonnie. "Not enough mics."

The lights went out. "That's our cue," said Alexis. She walked out and stood center stage with her mic stand. I stood on the stage at the stairs. A spotlight was cued on her as the music started. "Right from the start, you were a theif. You stole my heart." The audience screamed. "And I your willing victim. I let you see the parts of me that weren't all that pretty. And with every touch you fixed them." She smiled. "Now, you've been talking in your sleep. Oh, oh. Things you never say to me. Oh, oh. Tell me that you've had enough of our love. Our love." She took the mic off the stand. "Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough. Just a second, we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again. It's in the stars. It's been written in the scars on our hearts. We're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again."

"I'm sorry I don't understand where all of this is coming from," I sang as a spotlight shown on me. "I thought that we were fine."

"Oh, we had everything," sang Alexis.

"Your head is running wild again," I sang walking up to Alexis. "My dear, we still have everything and it's all in your mind."

"Yeah, but this is happening," sang Alexis.

"You've been having real bad dreams. Oh, oh. You used to lie so close to me. Oh, oh," I sang. "There's nothing more than empty sheets between our love, our love."

"Oh, our love," sang Alexis as I held her hand, "our love."

"Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough," we sang. "Just a second, we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again."

"I never stopped. You're still written in the cars on my heart," I sang. "You're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again."

"Oh, tear ducts and rust," sang Alexis.

"I'll fix it for us."

"We're collecting dust but our love's enough."

I held Alexis' hand. "You're holding it in."

"You're pouring a drink," sang Alexis.

"No, nothing is as bad as it seems," I smiled.

"We'll come clean!" sang Alexis.

"Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough. Just a second, we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again. It's in the stars. It's been written in the scars on our hearts. We're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again," we sang as I put my arm around her. "Just give me a reason, just a little bit's enough. Just a second, we're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again. It's in the stars. It's been written in the scars on our hearts. We're not broken just bent and we can learn to love again."

"We can learn to love again," sang Alexis.

"We can learn..." I looked at Alexis. "...to love again..." The spot light went out and we walked backstage. "We did it."

"Sure did," said Alexis. "Who's next?"

"Uhm, I forgot," I said. "Jonnie?"

Blake's POV

"That's me," I said. "And Madison."

"We're singing Me and You," sang Madison holding a mic. "I'm ready. Blake?"

"Always will be performing with you," I said. "Come on." Madison and I got onstage with our micstand and stood there. A spotlight got on each of us as the music started. "Ooohhhh..."

"Never known somebody like you before. Someone who can make me smile when falling on the floor," sang Madison. "'Cause it's okay to be me next to you. It's okay to be one of the two, just like glue. Me and you, me and you." We smiled at each other. "'Cause everything's a little bit better when you and I stick together. Stuck on you ooh. Me and you ooh."

"If you need a shoulder, you got mine. If you're ever in a pinch, you'd know I'd give my very last dime," I sang as I took my mic of the stand and Madison did the same. "Two peas in a pod, me and you. In perfect harmony, we're bobbing our heads to the goove."

"It's okay to be me next to you," we sang. "It feels good to be one of the two, just like glue. Me and you ooh." I held Madison's hand. "So glad I got someone like you. Me and you ooh. Always got each other's back, we do."

"'Cause everything's a little bit better when you and I stick together," sang Madison.

"Stuck on you ooh," I sang.

"Me and you ooh," we harmonized.

The spotlight dimmed and went completely out. We shared a kiss and walked off stage. "TC and Britt," said Madison. We handed them our mics. "Are you ready?"

"You guys got this," I said. "They'll do perfect."
