Chapter 13

"Give it up for y/n l/n!"

~

The boys cheer loudly for the girl.

Y/n smiles to herself.

The lights go off.

She straightens her dress and walks onstage.

The spotlight shines on her.

The boys are mesmerized by her beauty.

The music starts.

(^ Song above ^)

She begins singing.

"I don't know why but I'm feeling so sad
I long to try something I never had
Never had no kissin'
Oh, what I've been missin'
Lover man, oh, where can you be?"

The boys' jaws drop.

"The night is cold and I'm so alone
I'd give my soul just to call you my own
Got a moon above me
But no one to love me
Lover man, oh, where can you be?"

Skittery takes off his hat, never taking his eyes off the gorgeous girl. His mouth hanging open.

"I've heard it said
That the thrill of romance
Can be like a heavenly dream
I go to bed with a prayer
That you'll make love to me"

"Hot damn" Spot breaths out.

They all stare at the girl as she walks down the stages steps, singing with the voice of an angel.

"Strange as it seems
Someday we'll meet"

She walks over to Davey, smiles at him, and then straightens his tie a bit.

"And you'll dry all my tears"

She walks over to Crutchie, flashing him a smile.

"Then whisper sweet
Little things in my ear"

She walks over to Race, brushing her fingers under his chin, closing his mouth, that hung open in awe.

"Hugging and a-kissing
Oh, what I've been missing
Lover man, oh, where can you be?"

She finishes standing on the stage.

The room is quiet.

They all just stare at her wide eyed, jaws on the ground.

The boys suddenly explode in loud cheering and applause.

She giggles.

"Thank you all so much!" She says smiling, and waving. She walks off and goes backstage to get some water.

As she pours a cup, she feels hands on her waist. She tenses.

"Meet me at the bridge at midnight, gorgeous."

She feels tingles as his hot breath hits her ear.

"O-okay." She stutters as he walks away.

She walks out to go sit with the boys. As she walks out they all start cheering again.
