Hello ppl! Hi I'm so sorry this took a lot longer than expected I'm working this summer and just lost track of this story but ski lodge has brought back a lot of my Joshaya feels I'm still Lucaya as well. Idk I'm a little confused So w/o further ado...

Conscience: She doesn't own it

(Rolls eyes)

P.s. I'm making a polyvore account to show you characters outfits I saw it and thought people might enjoy it so… now back to the art of trouble….

I rubbed my tired eyes as I got home to my apartment that night I checked the clock and it was close to 9:00, so I heated up some leftover takeout for dinner, and sat down to watch some TVafter seeing nothing that there was nothing worth watching I grabbed my guitar from seventh grade and began to pluck at the strings.

Minutes later I was full out singing and well into my own world, when suddenly I heard a knock at my door.

I opened it only to see Riley and Isadora Smackle standing there with clear looks of impatience.

"What?" I asked after a moment of silence.

"We waited for you for two hours at Dana's and you never showed up! That's what" Riley exclaimed in fury. I put a hand over my mouth in shock. I had completely forgotten about tonight! It was girls night! We had planned this for two weeks and I forgot! I frowned and hoped my facial express?ion could convey all my sorry for how things worked out.

"Let me run and change." I said motioning to my non-fancy clothes. They nodded and rushed with me to my room to help me pick out what to wear. Riley and I rummaged though the closet till I found a teal and maroon ruffle dress that felt perfect for girls night I finished it off with fake pearl earrings and heels. I put my hair in a top knot and we all headed out to Dana's hoping to get a table at ten thirty at night.

After we ate we ran to a karaoke club that Riley and I found accidentally last year. I practically shoved Riley on the stage to sing a song of my choosing though it wasn't really my choice, it was Riley's favorite to sing. I smiled, my eyes closed as the tune of one of Riley's all time favorite songs filled the room.

When I look into your eyes

Its like watching the night sky

Or a beautiful sunrise

Well, there's so much they hold

And just like them old stars

I see that you've come so far

To be right where you are

How old is your soul?

Well, I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

And when you're needing your space

To do some navigating

I'll be here patiently waiting

To see what you find

'Cause even the stars they burn

Some even fall to the earth

We've got a lot to learn

God knows we're worth it

No, I won't give up

I don't wanna be someone who walks away so easily

I'm here to stay and make the difference that I can make

Our differences they do a lot to teach us how to use

The tools and gifts we got, yeah, we got a lot at stake

And in the end, you're still my friend at least we did intend

For us to work we didn't break, we didn't burn

We had to learn how to bend without the world caving in

I had to learn what I've got, and what I'm not, and who I am

I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up, I'm still looking up.

Well, I won't give up on us

God knows I'm tough enough

We've got a lot to learn

God knows we're worth it

I won't give up on us

Even if the skies get rough

I'm giving you all my love

I'm still looking up

As the song came to a close Riley was beaming and came down the stage to Isadora and me.

"How was it peaches?" She asked a little breathless.

"Perfect, amazing, a 10!" I dramatically announced. Riley and Smackle chuckled at me and we continued to enjoy the night.

At this point of the night I had sung several duets and group songs, but not a solo. I was trying to think of a song to thing so I decided in the end to leave it up to chance and I pulled out my phone and checked the song that was up to play when I saw it I smiled and out of all nights this was the perfect song to sing, I wondered why I hadn't thought of it and realized that the song was a little old, the oldest song on that playlist was about fifteen years old.

I went to the Karaoke machine checking to see if they had the song, I smiled when they did. I then grabbed the mic. and closed my eyes waiting for the song to play

Wait 'til you're announced

We've not yet lost all our graces

The hounds will stay in chains

Look upon Your Greatness and she'll send the call out

(Send the call out)x15

Call all the ladies out

They're in their finery

A hundred jewels on throats

A hundred jewels between teeth

Now bring my boys in

Their skin in craters like the moon

The moon we love like a brother, while he glows through the room

Dancin' around the lies we tell

Dancin' around big eyes as well

Even the comatose they don't dance and tell

We live in cities you'll never see on screen

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams

And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air, so there

So all the cups got broke shards beneath our feet but it wasn't my fault

And everyone's competing for a love they won't receive

'Cause what this palace wants is release

We live in cities you'll never see on screen

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams

And you know, we're on each other's team

I'm kind of over getting told to throw my hands up in the air

So there

I'm kinda older than I was when I revelled without a care

So there

We live in cities you'll never see on screen

Not very pretty, but we sure know how to run things

Living in ruins of a palace within my dreams

And you know, we're on each other's team

We're on each other's team

And you know, we're on each other's team

We're on each other's team

And you know, and you know, and you know

I then opened my eyes not expected a standing ovation I had to say it took me by suprise, but then I looked around and what surprised me even more was a pair of blue eyes…

*gasp!* cliffhanger again so sorry for the lack of updates and I know this chapter was short and it was mostly music but I needed a way to introduce Josh while showing off some of Sabrina's talent b/c it drives me crazy that she doesn't sing in GMW and she should so… yeah! also I thought I would liven up the the story a bit it's not a great chapter but it's a chapter non the less. It's kinda here to show you I'm still here and the story still gonna be updated so until later bye!
