"WAIT A MINUTE!" Zoom cried.
The team turned to Zoom, who had been unusually quiet for a part of the song. He wasn't fighting for spots in the song like the rest of the team, but now he was outspeaking the others by a mile.
Zoom looked over his shoulder to Lex. He smirked and rubbed his hands together, slowly forming a devious plan.
"Give me a chance to crack this guy," Zoom said, "I have an idea I'd like to try…"
Vert looked curiously at Zoom, wondering what sort of plan he had in store. "Well, if you think you can settle this once and for all, then the floor is yours!"
Zoom put on his most confident face and walked up to Lex, who was now sitting in a corner, humming to himself again. He put a hand on Lex's shoulder, which made him jump in surprise.
"Zoom? What do ye want?" He asked.
Zoom smirked and started questioning Lex. "So, this… crush you've had on Sapphire. How long has it lasted?"
"5 months," Lex replied happily. "That is, until I finally asked her out."
The other members of the BF5 were slowly warming up to the scene now, craning their heads to take a closer look.
Zoom walked in a circle around Lex, looking confident and cunning at the same time. He threw more questions at Lex-
"And your first name again is?"
"Lex. Why d'you ask?"
And your boyfriend's name is?"
"Tezz. Why' d'you-"Realizing his mistake, Lex immediately closed his mouth and turned a shade of red.
"GASP!"
The BF5's much audible gasps echoed around them. There was a brief moment of shocked silence until Vert broke it by jumping up and down in joy.
"AHA! See? I TOLD you, Stanford! I TOLD YOU!" He began pumping his fists in the air in celebration.
"What?" said a half-traumatized Lex, who was on the verge of blanking out. "I-I'm sorry, I misunderstood you, I-I thought you say best friend, my BEST friend is Tezz!"
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a copper-red Sentient vehicle drove in and parked recklessly, crashing into a stack of garbage cans; But the driver didn't seem to care.
Tezz stomped out of the Sentient vehicle-the Splitwire- and gave Lex a death glare while pointing The Accusing Finger at him. He looked like he had stepped out of a lava pool.
"You BASTARD!" Tezz cried. "You lying BASTARD!"
More gasps were heard from the BF5- They had never seen Tezz act the ferocious bear before, so this was new and somewhat terrifying to them.
"I was hoping…" The Russian sputtered. " I was hoping that you would one day confess, that you wouldn't be ashamed of who you really are… But NO MORE! I cover for you NO MORE!"
Tezz hopped on top of his vehicle and cleared his throat dramatically.
"PEOPLES! I have a big announcement to make!"
TEZZ- This man is gay AND European!
"WOAH!" The team gasped (once again), with Vert being the loudest of them all.
TEZZ- And neither is disgrace!
You've got to stop your being a completely closet case!
It's me, not her you're seeing,
No matter what he say!
I swear he never, ever, ever swing the other way!
Tezz got off the Splitwire and made his way to Lex, whose mouth was opened in shock. He grabbed Lex by the ear and started singing again-
TEZZ- You are so gay,
You big parfait,
You flaming boy in Cabaret!
"I'm straight!" Lex protested.
Tezz gave him one of his horrifyingly happy grins. "You were not yesterday, mon Lapushka. "
Lex's mouth dropped open for what could have possibily been the thousandth time.
TEZZ- So if I may,
I'm proud to say,
He's GAY!
OTHERS- And European!
TEZZ- He's GAY!
OTHERS- And European!
TEZZ- He's GAY!
OTHERS- And European and-
ALL- GAY!
Lex whimpered in protest, but finally gave in. "Oh fine, I'm gay!"
"HORRAY!" Everyone sang as they danced around in circles, even Sapphire.
When everyone finally stopped dancing, they all turned to Zoom.
"Nice job, kid!" exclaimed Spinner.
"Awesome detective work there, Zoom!" Agura said.
Zoom beamed in pride. "Well, it was nothing, really…" He started.
"WAIT!" Vert shouted.
Stanford gave the loudest groan of frustration on Earth. "WHAT? WHAT IS IT NOW, VERT?"
The leader chuckled. "Oh, nothing, Stan. I was just wondering if we could open up our own musical or something , since this one apparently went out so well."
Stanford looked at Vert exasperatedly, raised both hands in surrender and dropped to the floor. "NO! Definitely NO MORE of that! If you want to open up a musical, sign me OUT!" And with that, he got up and stomped to the Reverb.
Vert raised one of his eyebrows. "Really?" He said as he walked with his teammates back to the diner. "Because I was thinking of something with a whole lot of BAM!, and some romance in it, Like Zombie Killer Prom 2, we could definitely turn THAT into a musical…"
The team heard pages turning and the scribble of pencils in the background, with some muttering added to it. Curious, they turned to the source of the noise.
There they saw WitchesAndDemons, Writing away furiously on a notebook with a frown on her face. When She noticed the BF5 staring at her, she frowned even more.
She looked up at them and scowled. "Well?" She cried. "Say something! Don't just STAND there! I have a deadline you know, and I can't get this story done if you don't say anything!"
"Sorry…" The BF5 replied in unison, with their heads bowed down in shame.
"Uh… let's see…" Vert thought. "Whats a good song we can sing?..."
"I'VE GOT IT!" Spinner yelled enthusiastically.
Spinner- Do you like waffles?
Others- YEAH WE LIKE WAFFLES!
Spinner- Do you like pancakes?
Others- YEAH WE LIKE PANCAKES!
Spinner- Do you like French toast?
Others- YEAH WE LIKE FRENCH TOAST!
Do, do, do, do, do,
Do, do, do, do…
WAFFLES!
TheMagicianLord shook her head in disgust. "I'm getting a new job." She said as she abandoned her notebook and pencils and headed to the bus stop.
