This is when they're in high school, so they're using their real names. If you don't know their real names, you should consider Googling it. Also, the song is 'Crazy Dreams'

A tangled shock of curly, red hair dashed about the sparkling morning grass in the light of the full moon. Pale, bare feet padded over the fallen leaves and carried the owner of the crimson hair over to a wooden picnic table that was donated by some charity or another. Emerald eyes flicked from left to right, scanning the area in the unlikely case that anyone else was at the park at four in the morning. There was, of course, no one. A happy grin lit up freckled features and smiling lips parted to give forth a lilting, Irish voice. "I had a dream last night that I held you And you still seemed as handsome to me But when I awoke I found you missin' It's just another crazy dream for me"-" A rustle in the distance breaks concentration and a figure silhouette sends a flash of red and green across the dew-soaked field.

"Fanny? What is so important that you had to call me before five in the morning?" Rachel grumbled into her phone as she sat up in bed and rubbed the sleep out of her eyes.

"I'm sorry, Rachel, I didn't know who else to call." Fanny, though apologetic, was notably relieved to hear Rachel's voice.

She rolled her eyes even though Fanny couldn't see her. "Fanny, mine is the only number you have, who else did you think you were going to call?"

There was a pause before she answered. "I just had a total meltdown. I think someone was watching me sing in the park." If anyone besides Rachel knew how much she enjoyed singing, then the entire school could end up knowing. She was blushing at the thought of a single person knowing.

Rachel sighed on the other end. "Okay, where are you?" It wasn't uncommon for Fanny to wake up super early and practice singing in the park before going to school. It was one of the stranger habits that she harbored.

"I'm sitting outside the gym at school." The thing about Fanny is that the more she feels, the more Irish she sounds.

Her accent was more pronounced than normal and that's what tipped Rachel off. "I'll be over in ten minutes."

It was the end of fifth block by the time Fanny was reminded of her early morning panic attack. She was just leaving her drama class when Mr. Shields asked her to hang back and speak with him. "Ms. Fulbright, are you aware that you are failing my class?"

She lowered her eyes to the ground. "Yes, sir."

"Well," he continued. "I always hate to fail a student, so I've decided to give you one last chance to bring up your grade." She looked hopeful when he said this but said nothing. "Now, it has come to my attention that you have quite the singing voice."

Her entire face flushed red. "What?"

"In order to bring your grade back up," he continued obliviously, "I am making it mandatory for you to sing in this year's Culture Shock assembly." Culture shock was a yearly assembly where the principal tried to do a kind of culture equality type thing and have someone of each race perform a traditional song.

Now she was white as a sheet. "But-"

"No 'buts' Ms. Fulbright. You can pick your own song, but you simply must sing in the assembly if you want to pass this class."

A light shade of green crept over her features but she managed to keep her composure. "Please excuse me for a moment." She didn't wait for him to say another word. As quick as her legs could carry her, she pelted out of the building and made a beeline for Rachel's car. Rachel stood there talking to Abby while she waited for Fanny to arrive so that she could drive her home. Fanny overshot her target, slipped on a rock, skidded on the pavement, and ripped her left pant leg all the way down. It was not her best moment, but she was freaking out too much to care.

Blood poured out of her knee as Rachel helped her up and tried to make her calm down. "What's gotten into you? Sit still and let me see your knee."

"I don't care about my bleeding knee!" It was the ironic phrasing and the thick accent that got her attention. "I'm completely freaking out!"

She sighed. "I can see that. What do you want to do?"

"Call the others, I think we need to have a slumber party." Fanny only had slumber parties when there was an extreme crisis. Something really upsetting had to have happened for her to ask other people to come over to her house. This was serious.
