The had to steal a school…again. Although this time it was harder. Not only was it a public school that was a cover for an underground operation, it was a high school. Yes, teenagers. And with homecoming just around the corner, the team had to work fast. The school had already planned everything, and their mark was going to act during the dance. It was a small window of opprotnity, but one they had to seize. The dance required one of the members to sing, because it would have a live band for the first half hour, then a DJ the rest. Hardison would be the Dj, that much they knew, but the singer's position was still up for grabs. Eliot would act as a "bouncer," making sure no one got in without a ticket, then he'd be free to wander around and look out for anything suspicious. Nate would be outside watching it from security cameras, so that left Parker or Sophie. Parker made up some excuse about having to make sure the kids didn't steal anything, leaving an eager Sophie with the singing role. The team glanced around before making it official.

It was the night of, and Sophie was nowhere to be found. "Parker, you have a free moment, go find her! We need her!" Parker nodded to show that she got the message and went off, finally finding her in the bathroom.

"Sophie, we need you out there! Why'd you take your comm out?" Sophie looked up, eyes slightly red from the tears that had formed earlier.

"I… my throat…" Sophie rasped. Her voice sounded horrible, and tears sprung up again as she tried to explain. Parker just shushed her.

"No, don't make it hurt worse. Guys, we have a problem. Sophie's lost her voice, and her throat hurts…" There was a pause as Nate tried to think of what to do.

"Parker, you take over."

"WHAT?" No one needed the comms to hear that one. Somehow they got her to agree, though, because soon the blonde thief found herself up on stage introducing herself.

"Hello Knights! Are you ready to have fun?" She yelled, trying to get the crowd worked up. Glancing at her list of songs, she picked one at random. "Ok, we're starting out with a band favorite."

The band's time was almost over, and there weren't many songs left to play. Sophie was up in front, unable to help out much due to the fact that she couldn't talk. Parker looked down at the grifter and an evil smile played on her lips. "Now for a special song. This one's a personal favorite of mine." Parker stepped back and waited for the drummer to click her in. She was starting to get into the role, and was acting like a true musician. She wasn't a bad singer, and her energy added to the atmosphere.

"Is it still me that makes you sweat? Am I who you think about in bed?

When the lights are dim and your hands are shaking as you're sliding off your dress?

Then think of what you did and how I hope to God he was worth it." Parker had been jumping around the stage earlier, but was now focused on where the mic stand was, focusing on the crowd. Sophie backed up a little, eyes widening and hand finding it's way up to her mouth. She put her fingers lightly on her lips, not quite sure why this song was so special, but she had an inkling.

"When the lights are dim and your heart is racing as your fingers touch his skin.

I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck than any boy you'll ever meet, sweetie you had me. Girl I was it, look past the sweat, a better love deserving of exchanging body heat in the passenger seat?

No, no, no, you know it will always just be me." Sophie heard Hardison make a joke over the comms, but she wasn't listening. She was focused on the song, mesmerized by Parkers now wild movements.

"Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?

"So I guess we're back to us, oh cameraman, swing the focus

In case I lost my train of thought, where was it that we last left off?

(Let's pick up, pick up). Oh now I do recall, we were just getting to the part

Where the shock sets in, and the stomach acid finds a new way to make you get sick. I hope you didn't expect that you'd get all of the attention. Now let's not get selfish

Did you really think I'd let you kill this chorus?" Sophie watched as Parker got up close to the front of the stage and bend down, giving high fives to random girls in the front. She then got back up, but not before giving Sophie a wink. At least, that's what Sophie thought happened. She could hardly think straight, let alone decipher Parker's intentions.

"Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?

Dance to this beat

Dance to this beat

Dance to this beat

Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster

Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster"

"I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck

Than any boy you'll ever meet, sweetie you had me

Girl I was it, look past the sweat, a better love deserving of

Exchanging body heat in the passenger seat?

No, no, no, you know it will always just be me." There was a slight pause in the music, which Parker used to her advantage. She looked right at Sophie, and as electric blue eyes met chocolate brown ones, Parker sang the next lines. Sophie couldn't deny it anymore. Parker was singing this song for a reason.

"Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

Will you dance to this beat, and hold a lover close?

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls,

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls

Dance to this beat

So testosterone boys and harlequin girls

Dance to this beat

And hold a lover close

Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster, faster

Let's get these teen hearts beating. Faster." As the last note faded away, Parker caught Sophie's eyes again, then smirked.

"Ok, that's all for tonight!" The crowd let out a small groan. The girls in the crowed liked having the band on stage, while the guys just wanted to watch Parker some more. "Haha, no worries! The DJ has some good stuff lined up for y'all tonight!" As Hardison pumped the music up, Parker hopped off stage. Sophie stood where she was, letting the thief come to her. Parker laughed and looked at Sophie.

"No wonder you like being on stage! That was more fun then I thought it would be! We have to switch places again some time if it means I can jump around more!" Sophie smiled and shook her head, and wrote a note down on some paper.

"You sounded great Parker!" Parker just laughed again, and a smirk played on her lips for a split second.

"You think so? So it wasn't bad?" Now it was Sophie's turn to smirk.

"Not at all. In fact, I loved it." The look on Parker's face was priceless. Sophie laughed as she grabbed Parker's hand and led her off the dance floor. The team didn't see the two girls until the next day. When they asked where they had been, Sophie and Parker just gave a knowing glance as Parker answered for the both of them.

"Us? We were just… singing."
