The next morning Ana woke up around 5:00 am.
Waking-up to Jack's arm wrapped around her, she smiled looking at his face. Amazed at how peaceful and content he looked, she carefully sat up, put a pillow under his arm, and got out of bed, grabbing her I-pod, cell phone, and briefcase she went downstairs.
She placed her cell phone and briefcase on the kitchen table and started the coffee, turning on her I-pod; she started her daily dance routine. She decided to dance a couple more songs, when she finally realized how sweaty she got, she turned her I-pod off and placed it next to her cell phone, grabbing a cup of coffee she sat down to start on her paperwork.
A few hours into her paperwork, she got up to get another cup of coffee,
"You're not dancing" Jack said grabbing her waist from behind,
"I did earlier, I'm doing paperwork now," she smiled turning around to face him,
"I see that, you took up the whole kitchen table," Jack laughed,
"Sorry, here I'll clear up a spot so you can have breakfast here"
Jack got him a cup of coffee and his cigarettes and sat down at the table, watching her stress out with her paperwork, "I had no idea you wore glasses" Jack said smiling.
"Yeah, yeah laugh it off Jackie-poo! Their reading glasses." She said looking up at him,
"I'm not laughing, I think it's cute!"
"So, you decided to copy my breakfast routine huh, coffee and cigarettes?"
"I'm just not in the mood to eat,"
Ana's cell phone started ringing,
"Hello?" Ana said putting her papers down,
"Amy, what's wrong? You need to calm down I can't understand you"
"What? Is there anyone else?" Ana said leaning back into her chair,
"Dimmit, For once in my life I thought I could actually get a break!"
Jack looked at her with concern,
"Fine," Ana said sighing,
"I'll do it,"
"Yeah, I'll call her later to tell her, call tiffany for me, tell her we're changing colors, green is my favorite and yellow does not look good on me,"
"Ok, I'll talk to you later, Amy. Thank you. Bye"
Ana shut her phone closed and threw it on the floor,
"Agggr! Why can't I ever get a break!" burying her face in her hands,
"Is everything ok?" Jack said taking her right hand and kissing it gently,
"Yeah, it's just… one of the backup dancers for the concert, is sick and there's no one else but me who could take her place, because we're two weeks away from the concert. And no one is going to memorize all the dance routines in that amount of time. To top it all off, she has songs she is going to sing. I'm the only one who already knows all that shit because I fucking choreographed all of it! And I'm the only one who has experience in singing and dancing in front of a fucking crowd!" Ana said, in an aggravated tone,
Jack moved his chair closer and took both her hands into his,
"I love singing Jack, I love performing! Nevertheless, that was my old life. The past nine concert's I managed were the same, I had to go backstage and sing because the singer has laryngitis, or someone has stage fright and cant dance, or some other bull shit!"
"Ana, if you love singing so much, why give it up?"
"My life now can't be connected with singing. Singing and managing events and shit are two different worlds."
"Jack, I'm ecstatic and furious right now. I want to perform, but for once in my life I'd really like to just sit and watch, so I can see it for myself if I really did do a good job."
"I can understand that," Jack said lighting a cigarette,
"Thank you Jack, for listening to me and my messed up life." Ana smiled,
"You're not messed up; your life is perfect compared to mine,"
"Yeah right! So you have band practice later right? You're going to practice at D'3?"
"Why do you want to know? You're going out today right?"
"No reason, and yes I have to enroll BJ at daycare I have to get my internet connection done and I'll probably be at the mall with BJ the rest of the day."
"I should probably go and change now," Ana said putting her paperwork back into her briefcase; she smiled at Jack before getting up and heading upstairs.
After she enrolled BJ and got her internet connected, BJ went out with Bobby for the day, looking at her watch it was only 4:00 pm, she decided to change into her tight dance pants and tank top and headed to D'3.
Walking in she saw Jack and the boys on stage rehearsing, she smiled at Jack and headed to the bar to Jenny.
"Hey Jen! I need to use the music room upstairs for a while," she said holding up a CD,
"Wait, I thought this time you weren't performing,"
"That's what I thought, until they called this morning. I must rehears now and prepare for glory!" Ana said rolling her eyes, Jenny laughed at her while Jack watched as she disappear upstairs.
Ana came down two hours later sweaty as hell; the boys were taking five for a minute she walked up to Tyler,
"Hi, your Tyler right?" she asked,
"Yeah, you're Ana the owner."
"Yes and no, right now I'm just a singer, would you do me a huge favor and play this for me?" Ana said handing him a piece of paper.
"Sure, you were going to sing along to it?" Ana nodded and they got on stage and he started playing, Jack stood there staring at her.
"You think you can sing the guy part?" Ana said showing him the duet,
"I'll try but Jack's the singer you know,"
"Jack, would you help me with my duet?" talking in the mic, she smiled as he went on stage and stood next to her,
"You think you can handle a little love song fairy" Ana teased Jack pressing her body against his,
"Your on," Jack said as the music began, Jenny stood at the bar watching.
Jack begun singing, reading the lyrics on the paper Ana gave him,
(Jack) I had to take a little time, Even when I can't be there for you,
Lately I've been thinking,
About the things that we've been through,
And I don't know if I'd be here,
If not for you,
To try to work things out,
And you should know that,
I have never meant,
To let you down.
Cause I, I
Wannna tell you that I'm sorry,
And I, I,
Even when I'm not giving enough,
And I'm taking too much,
You're still there for me,
Even when I got nothing at all,
And I'm ready to fall,
You're still there for me,
There for me,
There for me.
You're always there for me.
Ana took the mic off the stand and started walking towards Jack,
To lose my selfish pride.
(Ana)
Sometimes I know I can be,
So hard to understand (It's ok),
Even when I'm lost,
You show me who I really am,
Life with me hasn't always been an easy ride,
But because of you I've learned,
Jack wrapped his arm around her waist to pull her closer, staring deep into her eyes while he was singing to her, made on for Ana's fantasy's come true.
(Both)
Cause I, I
Wannna tell you that I'm sorry
And I, I
Even when I'm not giving enough
And I'm taking too much
You're still there for me
Even when I got nothing at all
And I'm ready to fall
You're still there for me
There for me
There for me
Even when I can't be there for you
Oh you're always there for me yeah
Ana placed her free hand on his cheek, caressing it gently, looking up into his blue eyes.
Oh no it's love
Ooooouuhhh (Oooohhh)
It must be love
Ooohhh
It's gotta be real love (It's gotta be real love)
Even when I'm not giving enough
And I'm taking too much
You're still there for me
Even when I got nothing at all
And I'm ready to fall
You're still there for me
There for me
There for me
Even when I can't be there for you (When I can't be there)
Even when I can't be there for you
You're always there for me
They smiled at each other, Jack's forehead leaning against hers.
That night back at the house, Ana was getting ready to go to D'3.
She thought that maybe tonight would not be a bad night to wear jeans and a sweatshirt. She put on her green sweatshirt and ass-tight jeans. She walked downstairs and said goodnight to BJ and Bobby, before she left.
When she got to D'3, Jack and the boys already started playing on stage.
An hour later, Jenny came out from the office in the back,
"Ana, phone call!" she yelled over the music,
"Thanks!" she yelled back,
"Hello?"
"Ana dear? It's Marilyn, How are you?"
"Oh my God Marilyn, I'm good and you?"
"I'm just fine; I have a problem though, about the concert,?"
"What's wrong?" Ana said biting down on her nails,
"The rock band we got, quit! They signed a recorded deal this morning,"
"What? Ok, I'll find a band to replace them, I'll be on the phone first thing tomorrow morning, and I'll call you when I find someone"
"I knew I could count on you, Ana! Talk to you soon! Bye."
Ana put the phone down and sighed, she walked back into the bar and searched her brain for an answer, she was tired, not really in the mood, and… she now knows who could replace the band.
"Jack! Over here!" Ana waved at him, when he finished their last sing for the first set,
"Wow, look at you, jeans and a sweatshirt, I never thought I'd see the day."
"Very funny, come on, go call the boys and follow me into the office,"
When they got there, Ana was pacing back and forth biting her nails,
"Hi, guys. Take a seat," she said sitting down,
"What's up Ana?" Tyler asked,
"Ok, you guys have probably heard about the, Fundraising Concert in two weeks right?"
They nodded and she continued,
"Well here's the thing, the rock band we had quit on us and I need an immediate replacement, I thought maybe you guys would be interested?"
When they didn't answer, she smiled and added,
"We're will to pay you 1,500 dollars, each. You only have to perform two songs."
"What?" Jack asked looking at her, confused.
"Look, I know this is not your thing. But there is going to be a lot of talent managers and a lot of known people out there looking for new talent, that night."
"What if we do it, what do you get out of it?" Jack asked,
"You guys will relive me of another headache of having to find someone,"
"Ok, what do you guys think?" Jack asked the guys,
"We'll do it," Jack said, smiling at Ana,
"Really? Oh, God thank you guys!" Ana said,
"No thank you." Tyler said standing up as the guys made their way out leaving Jack and Ana alone.
"Thanks Jack," she said giving him a hug,
"We should be thanking you," he smiled and kissed the top of her head.
