Hey guys! :D Okay this story is for Selenaisawesome101! :D Gotta love her yo. But anyways! :D This is my first Spectacular story! So please be nice!(: haha. Okay so the kiss between Courtney and Nikko never happened!
Enjoy!
Why don't you break my heart
Yeah, break it
Stare me down, intimidate me
Oh baby please you'll never break me
Bring it on, cause I can take it
You're so cool, the way you play it
Oh, you can do whatever you like
It's alright with me
Carter Wilson rolled her eyes at her friend Janet, not only was she friend with most annoying girl ever, but every time she and Janet had to be together, Courtney was there. It drove her insane. Her dark brown hair fell over her shoulders; she played with that blonde streak in her as she tuned Janet out. She was pretty sure she was talking about show choir or some shit like that. Carter didn't seem to honestly care for that stuff.
She sang for herself, not for awards or to be the best.
She didn't seem to be interested in Janet's conversation with Courtney about choir. Carter sighed. Not only was she completely annoyed with the two, but Courtney drove her insane. All she spoke about was how much liked this guy or show choir! Carter swore that she wouldn't hit her, but she felt like it.
"Cart!"
"What!" Carter snapping her out of her thoughts, she sighed and rubbed her forehead. Her hazel eyes flashed toward her friend.
"Yes?"
"This is Nikko and this Caspian,"
"Like from Narnia?" Carter asked sarcastically examining her nails not bothering to look at who Janet was talking about.
Poor Caspian blushed in embarrassment, Nikko stifled a laugh.
"Carter!" Janet nudging her in the ribs.
"What? It's true."
Carter looked up and her hazel eyes met green eyes. She cocked her head to the side and took in his appearance as he did with her.
He had brown spikey hair, tan skin and green eyes. Damn, he was sexy. Carter looked at him with disdain. She didn't like the smirk on his face that he had when he saw her.
Nikko Alexander gave this girl a once over, she had long straight dark brown hair, tan skin and hazel eyes. She was pretty. But hell, the glare on her face seemed to kill her look.
He sat across from her and Carter went back to talking to Janet, ignoring Caspian and Nikko.
"For the last time I'm not joining show choir." She snapped out
"Whoa wait this girl is joining Spectacular?" Nikko asked with annoyance in his voice.
Carter gave him a sharp look "No! And this girl has a name; it's Carter. "
"Why? Can't sing? Can't dance?" Nikko smirked again.
Carter felt the sudden urge to slap him across the face. "Oh I can sing,"
"Nikko, she can sing." Courtney said trying her best to defend Carter, which surprised Carter, because they hated each other.
"Yeah, Nikko…"
Carter rolled her eyes at his ignorance and she got up from the seat. She stared down at Nikko and walked toward the man that controlled the songs at the karaoke club/blowing alley. Carter requested a song that broke her heart, but she knew she could pull it off.
"What's your name?" the DJ asked putting his hand over the microphone.
"Carter," she answered
"Alright ladies and gents, Carter will be singing For the Love of a Daughter by Demi Lovato."
Carter walked up onto the stage, and grabbed the microphone, she noticed Nikko turning to look at her. She heard him say "she really isn't going to do this. Is she?"
Carter licked her dry lips and cleared her throat. She looked down "This is for my dad."
Four years old with my back to the door
All I could hear was the family you wore
Your selfish hands, always expecting more
Am I your child or just a charity ward?
PRE-CHORUS
You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest.
I try so hard to fight it
But it's hopeless, hopeless
You're hopeless.
CHORUS
Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
It's been five years, since we've spoken last
And you can't take back what we never had
I can be manipulated only so many times
Before even, "I love you" starts to sound like a lie
PRE-CHORUS
You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it
But it's hopeless, hopeless
You're hopeless
CHORUS
Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't let you go.
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter.
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you push me out of your world?
Lied to your flesh and your blood
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved
Oh father, please father
I'd love to leave you alone, but I can't let you go
Oh father, please father
Oh father, please father
Put the bottle down for the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter
Carter swatted a tear from her cheek before anyone noticed, but Nikko had. He was shocked by three things.
Her voice
The fact her father is a abusive drunk
She was a damn good singer
Cater hopped off the stage, walking back to the booth that they were sitting in. Everyone was quiet when she sat down. Nikko was staring at her as if she were a some mysterious thing. Carter noticed this and her eyes narrowed. What could possibly be his problem?
"What?" she hissed at him.
"You're still not a better singer than me."
She groaned "Nikko, I am too!"
"Doubt it, do you have a record deal?"
"No, but I don't care for it."
"What!" they all exclaimed
"I sing for me, not for other people to judge me."
Cater hated explaining why she didn't care about her talent. Her mother told her she was never good at singing, so she figured it was true. But did that stop her from singing? No! She figured her mother was jealous of her talent.
Nikko stared at Carter with curiosity. This girl looked like someone he would date; she looked like a bad ass if anything. She was extremely pretty also. But she thought she was better than him, that wasn't going to work. He was defiant. He wasn't going to let some stranger show him up.
No that was not Nikko Alexander at all.
He got up from the table and walked toward the DJ and told him the exact song he wanted it. He turned around to see Carter looking at him with curiosity. He smirked at her and walked up on the stage grabbing the microphone.
"Alright People, Nikko Alexander, singing I don't Wanna Be in Love by Good Charlotte!"
Nikko gave his signature smirk and started singing.
She's going out to forget they were together
All that time he was taking her for granted
She wants to see if there's more
Than he gave she's looking for
He calls her up
He's trippin' on the phone now
He doesn't want her out there
And alone now
He knows she's movin' it
Knows she's using it
Now he's losing it, she don't care
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you've got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You've got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
He was always giving her attention
Looking hard to find the things she mentioned
He was dedicated but most suckers hate it
That girl was fine but she didn't appreciate him
She calls him up
She's trippin' on the phone now
He had to get up
And he ain't comin' home now
He's tryin' to forget her
That's how we come with him
When he first met her
When they first got together
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
(I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
To the beat, to the beat, to the beat
You got nothing to lose
Don't be afraid to get down
We break up, it's something that we do now
Everyone has got to do it sometime
It's okay, let it go
Get out there and find someone
It's too late to be trippin' on the phone here
Get off the wire, know everything is good here
Stop what you're doin', you don't wanna ruin
The chance that you got to find a new one
Everybody put up your hands
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feel the beat now
If you got nothing left
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Back it up now
You got a reason to live
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
Feelin' good now
Don't be afraid to get down
Say I don't wanna be in love
I don't wanna be in love
No, no
Now you know what to do
So come on, get up, girl
He jumped off stage and walked toward the table to see Carter grabbing her messenger bag and pulling on her leather jacket on. Her side bangs hid her left eye as she reached down to grab her phone.
"You guys leaving?" he asked
"Well, I am. I have to get home, I have to get up early."
Nikko seemed to notice that she was playing with her hair as she spoke. Most people did that when they were lying or nervous.
"I'll walk you."
She raised an eyebrow "What?"
"I said I'll walk you home."
"Yeah, I know what you said. Why would you walk me home?"
He shrugged "I want to leave to."
Carter nodded "Okay fine."
He realized this girl was only up to his shoulder, he gave her a half of a smile "Let's go." He said as he put on his jacket.
"Fine by me,"
Nikko stuffed his hands in his pocket as he and Carter walked down the sidewalk. Not only was it awkward, but it frustrated the both of them.
"So you don't want a deal?"
She shook her head "It's not my style."
"Not your style?" he glanced at her
"What can I say I'm substance over style?"
He nodded thoughtfully "A dieing breed."
"Not to late to join,"
"No, I already drank that kool–Aid."
She raised her eyebrows and nodded. She stopped walking and stared up at a building. Carter sighed.
"This is my stop." Carter looked at Nikko "Thanks for walking me."
He nodded, honestly the teenager didn't know to respond. That was the nicest thing she had said the whole time they were together. Nikko gave her another half a smile.
"I guess I'll see you around?"
"Probably."
"Well bye,"
"Bye,"
Nikko started walking down the sidewalk
As Carter searched her bag for her keys, Nikko turned walking backwards.
"It was good to meet you!"
Carter smiled at him and opened the door, disappearing inside.
