But thank you to jacnaylor1998 and SilentPatronus for dropping me in some jokes haha xxx They'll come in use for other chapters though so you haven't wasted your time (:. Also when it gets to the bit about Phantom of The Opera have Overtue on the ready to play please as it's hard to describe the music haha.
Backstage everyone was talking, apart from Serena and Edward who were outside. They hadn't heard any yelling or screaming so they guessed he was safe, "I think we're pulling it off pretty well," Sacha said shrugging, "I have an idea," he said whispering and he moved his index finger inwards signalling for them to come in a huddle, "Who agrees Sedward need their heads banging together?" Sacha asked grinning.
"Well duh," Michael said, "I thought that was fairly obvious," he then tilted his eyebrow, "Why what's your plan?"
"Shh," he placed his finger to his lips, "We lock them out," Sacha winked.
"Are you crazy?!" Mo asked, "It's freezing out there oh wait," Mo put her hand up, "Sorry it's cold out there," she looked to Jonny and his sister's, "Must remember it's colder in other places," that comment made the others laugh, "Serena will kill you."
"I think you'll find you did that," Sacha reminded Mo and Mo blushed, "Anyway if you guys won't do it…I will," Sacha was determined to get them to get them to kiss and make up, "Well?"
"I'm in," Imogen said grinning, "I'll lock the other doors hurry though."
"Oh might as well," Jonny stood up and grinned at Jac, "Come on Jac…you want those two to make up as much as we do."
"I'm not moving," Jac was sat on the floor her back against the wall rubbing her swollen abdomen, "You want to swap places?" Jac asked Jonny angrily but then the image of Jonny pregnant made her laugh, "Oh I really wanna get you one of those fake bumps…I'd pay to see a pregnant Jonny Maconie," Jac laughed and the others cracked up, "Well if you wanna lock them out hurry up," she said as she knew they wouldn't stay out there much longer.
"Come on Jonny," Imogen grabbed him by the arm and they walked onto the stage, down the steps and locked all the doors, "Shh," she placed her finger to her lips, "We've got a plan."
"Do we want to know?" Mrs Maconie asked raising an eyebrow. The two siblings smiled innocently at their parent and stood together, "Judging by those grins I say not."
"Oh this'll be entertainment don't you worry," Jonny said, "Right Immie?" he put his arm around her neck and grinned.
"Now I'm worried," Mr Maconie said, "I know that look in your eyes."
Outside Serena and Edward weren't talking they were just standing awkwardly, "I'm going back in," Serena finally spoke the cold air showed as she spoke, coming out of her mouth.
"Same it's cold," Edward went to open the door but it was stuck, "Oh don't tell me the cold has iced the doors shut."
"Oh stand aside," Serena pushed him out the way and tried to open the door, "No you bloody imbecile the twonks have locked us out."
"You have got to be kidding me," Edward said angrily and he folded his arms, "Alright very funny open up!" Edward shouted.
"Shut up if you shout they won't let us in," Serena shouted, "Honestly didn't you learn anything at Harvard?" she asked him.
"I seem to remember being a tad bit busy," Edward winked and Serena huffed, "Come on we spent most our time-"
"Yes I remember," Serena butted in not wanting to be reminded of the love they shared, "Oh this is ridiculous," Serena folded her arms.
"I'll try the other door," Edward went to walk but Serena stopped him.
"They've locked every door you plank," Serena said like it was the most obvious thing in the world, "When I find out who done this is going to get their arse kicked."
"On your monthly?" Edward asked winding her up; he knew she hated him mocking her when she was on. It was a thing he couldn't leave alone, "I always know when you're on."
"Oh really?" Serena asked raising her eyebrow, "How then?"
"Well one you've been way more snappier at me especially on stage, two your eyes are all glassy which indicates pain," Edward looked down to her abdomen then back up again, "And three when you dug your nails into the top of my shoulders I heard you make a whining noise."
"Vigilant as always," Serena stated.
"Got that off James," Edward smiled lightly, "He was always vigilant."
"I bet you it's those Maconie siblings…" Serena guessed.
"How do you know?" Edward asked.
"It's obvious no one else would dare do this, Jonny couldn't come up with this on his own. Only person I know who would be stupid enough to do this, is Michael and even he knows he'd get into trouble if he does this," Serena took a breath as she ran out, "Well I say we play them at their own game."
"Hate to break it to you how can we?" Edward asked.
"Clearly all that time with a child bride has shrunk your brain cells," Serena crouched down so she couldn't be seen, "Come on."
"What?" Edward asked.
"Just shut up and follow," Serena and Edward crawled along the icy cold ground, Serena sensed snow was coming, "Bet we'll get the tail end from Scotland."
"How thick is the snow there?" Edward asked and they turned the corner as there were no windows they stood upwards and back into the wall, shuffling along. Both their hands were red from the cold.
"Probably very," Serena answered, "I would check but we've been locked out," Serena then crouched again as the windows reappeared, "I feel like James Bond," saying that Edward accidently hummed Pink Panther, "That's Pink Panther."
Edward then done a forward roll and held his thumbs and index finger's together like a gun, "That better?"
"Another reason why I divorced you…you act like a child," Serena shook her head and then stood upwards again, "A ha," Serena found a door she ran to it, "It's not locked…obviously they weren't vigilant enough," Serena opened it and it entered to where the props, mops and buckets went during the night, "I say we have some fun."
"What's got into you?" Edward asked shocked at her childish behaviour.
"You're a bad influence," Serena answered and she hit her back against the wall and done a James Bond impression, "Hey look," Serena saw a dim light, "Get down," she and Edward dropped to the ground, "We can hide behind the curtains playing music, turn the lights on and off and then freak them out," Serena smiled cheekily.
"There's kids here remember?" Edward reminded his who then looked like she was having second thoughts, "Plus you don't want to put Jac into early labour."
They then heard voices, "Just going to take Daniel to your mother's then I'll come back," Serena heard Chrissie say, "The play's going to get darker and it's late….can someone unlock the door for me?"
"Fin's got his iPad with earphones in he's all good," Gemma's mum said so with that Serena and Edward both grinned at each other.
"Get down," Serena then pulled a sheet over then, "OK that was a fail."
"Hey look," Edward pulled a cd out which had, Phantom Of The Opera written on it, "Phantom Of The Opera."
"You put it in, I'll get the lights and then we hide," Serena had no idea what was going through her head, she guessed it was from all the acting.
"Alright," Edward plugged the massive CD Stereo Player in and then paused the first song: Overtue, "This is why you don't mess with us."
"I bite back hard," Serena whispered," OK," she had her hands on the light switch, "On my count, one, two, three," and with that Serena turned the lights off and Edward burst out Overtue.
Everyone jumped as the hall went black and the room filled with Overtue, "Jonny if this is one of your tricks," Mo yelled, "Then stop."
"It's not me," Jonny said through darkness, "Anyone got a phone? Jac are you OK?"
Jac found her way to a seat and sat down, "Alright Gina or Imogen if this one of your-"
"It's not us!" The two sisters shouted, "I swear," Imogen added she grabbed onto Jonny's arm, "Please tell me it's you Harry."
"Not me," Harry said through the darkness, "Anyone got a torch?" Harry asked.
"Finn give us your iPad," Gemma said and she snatched it off him and found the torch app, "Right…is everyone OK?" she looked around seeing confused faces, and a frightened face off Imogen.
"Whoever is doing this stop," Jonny demanded, "It's not funny."
Serena and Edward covered their mouths to stop each other from laughing out loud, she then switched on the spotlights.
"Can I have the iPad back now mum?" Finn asked not dazed by this or anything.
"What if it's a ghost?" Rachel asked.
"Don't be stupid ghosts don't exist," Becka said to Rachel.
"Maybe Serena and Edward found their way in and are playing a trick on us?" Sacha asked hopefully.
"Please mum would never do anything has childish as this," Eleanor said but then she remembered they were outside, "Someone go check if their outside."
"I'm not going," Gabby said biting her nails.
"I'll go," Jonny said bravely.
"No," Imogen kept her grip on his muscular arm, "No way."
"Then come with me you big scardey cat," Jonny pulled her along and into the dark changing room, now him himself was slightly freaked out, "You ready?" Jonny asked.
"No but yes," Imogen and Jonny stepped outside into the cold where they saw no signs of life, "It's them I know it is."
"Please Ms Campbell can't play a trick like this…she's too old and boring," As Jonny said that Serena walked up behind him pushed the siblings out and shut the door shut then fled, obviously she had heard them talking and wanted revenge.
"Ahhh!" Imogen screamed leaping into Jonny's arms, "What was that?"
"Ah get off me!" Jonny put her down and Imogen kept her grip on him, "Come on…I'm sure there's a door here somewhere," Jonny and Imogen walked around the large building, "Well there should be," Jonny said.
"Keep looking," Imogen demanded and they carried on around the building, hearing a replay of Overtue. "Jonny I don't like this."
"Quit your greeting," Jonny demanded but then he softened, "Sorry…look it's fine OK," he knew Imogen hated ghosts and when he found out who done this, they were going to get a right yelling, "We'll be OK just keep hold of my hand."
"OK," Imogen said and they turned the building, "Hey there's a door," Imogen ran in front of Jonny.
"Immie wait up!" Jonny shouted and he hadn't realised how icy the ground had got and he slipped he fell onto his bottom hard and convinced he had had just gone and hurt his Coccyx, "Shit," he stood up slowly feeling pain shooting from the bottom of his spine, "Oh no," he groaned.
"Come on," Imogen took his and guided him slowly, "You OK?" she asked concerned.
"Not really," Jonny leant forward, "I've hurt my Coccyx."
"Ouch," Imogen said making a pain face, "When I find out who's done this."
"They'll be getting a bollocking off me," Jonny butted in, "As soon as I can move," he slowly very slowly lifted himself away from the wall, "OK let's go," he and Imogen walked into the same place Serena and Edward ended up.
Serena and Edward jumped as they heard the familiar Scottish accents, "Oh dear," Edward turned the music off and Serena turned the lights on, "Run," he said but they were stopped.
"Hey!" Imogen ran up to Edward and pushed him he landed into the wall and everyone heard a crack.
"Oh my god," Imogen stepped back cupping her hands to her mouth in shock, "That wasn't supposed to happen," she back into Jonny who a bit weaker than normal fell over, Jonny grabbed onto her for support but Imogen fell back onto him landing on his stomach, "Sorry," she said as she heard Jonny trying not to cry in pain.
Serena had to see to Jonny first he had taken a worse fall, "Jonny are you OK?" Serena knelt down.
"No course he's not OK," Imogen shouted, "He slipped because the ground has turned icy and hurt his Coccy thing and now I've made him fall over again…so no he's not OK," Imogen said right into Serena's face, "Thanks to you and Edward what processed you! Jac's pregnant what if Chrissie hadn't taken Daniel out?" Imogen yelled and Serena stepped back.
"So it was you who locked us out?" Serena asked angrily, "What the hell!"
"Urmm a little help here," Jonny groaned.
"Could use a little assistance myself," Edward said as his head was leant back and he pressed the soft part of his nose.
"Oh god," Serena and Imogen said at the same time, "Urmm right nurse Maconie how bad is the pain?" Serena asked.
"I can stand up but it hurts," Jonny answered, "Help me up then…you put me in this position," Jonny demanded off Serena and he sat up slowly.
"Take my hand then," Serena ordered and he grabbed and yelped in pain, "Right stand still do not move," she ordered just like she had done with Eleanor last year when she turned up drunk with Gabby at the hospital, "And you," she said to Edward, "Keep your head tilted back…if the bleeding doesn't stop after half an hour something is wrong."
"What processed you?" Jonny asked angrily; he was worried for Jac and worried for Imogen who had been freaked out by the whole ordeal, "Like Immie said what if Daniel had been there?!"
"We weren't going to do it if he was there," Serena said and she leant against the wall, "Anyway who's brilliant idea was it to lock us out?" Not wanting to stitch up Sacha, Jonny and Imogen looked at each other and held their hands up, "Serves you both right then."
"Thanks Ms Campbell," Jonny said trying to avoid the pain.
"Look let's get you sat down and you need wash your face before you enter," Serena demanded off Edward, she guided Jonny around the small hallway and up onto the stage.
"Jonny Mac?!" Mo ran over, "What happened?" she asked worried.
"Slipped on ice outside," Jonny answered and he brushed Mo's hand away, "I'm fine…I just need to sit down for a second," he sat down next to Jac, "Are you OK?!" Jonny asked Jac concerned for her and their baby.
"Jonny I'm fine," Jac answered in fact she found the whole ordeal quite entertaining, "Are you?" She asked concerned.
"Think I've hurt my Coccyx," Jonny answered and Jac stood up, "Jac I'm fine," Jonny said but interlocked hands with Jac, "Just in a wee bit of pain."
"Anyone got any ibuprofen?" Mary-Claire asked her nursing duties kicking in, "Or any other NSAID?"
"I've got Ibuprofen," Chantelle dug into her small bag and pulled out two smooth and shiny tablets, "Here."
"Thanks," Jonny took them and swallowed them whole without any water, "I've had a Pneumophorax I can survive this," Jonny said to Jac who looked worried he was sure, she wasn't meaning to show it.
"Curse those neighbour kids," Jac said to Jonny, "How did you survive it?"
"I'm made of tough stuff," Jonny answered, "Takes a lot to push me down."
"Do you still hate them?" Jac asked.
"Well last time I saw them was two years ago…we urr had a wee chat and they shook my hand, took the piss out of me for being a nurse, but otherwise I think the days of fights have ended," Jonny looked around to find everyone apart from his parents, sisters and Mo looking shocked, "Why you looking at me funny?"
"Fights?" Harry asked.
"Oh aye we used to have disagreements all the time," Jonny answered, "Got me suspended from school they did."
"Jonny Maconie you naughty boy," Jac said but as Jonny looked at her funny she smiled, "Hate to think what you did."
"Tackled Carl to the ground and Ellis ran and got the teacher the sleekit!" Gina spat their names and glared like they were there, "I ended up pulling Jonny off and then he got suspended…I spent ages trying to get them suspended."
"Wow," Jac said sounding impressed, "Don't see you as the fighting type…you seem more the talk it out."
"Yeah well Carl and Ellis were beyond talking," Jonny mumbled, "They enjoyed winding all of us up," Jac rested her head on his arm.
"Awww," Michael and Sacha said together, "How cute," Michael said folding his arms and grinning,
"So are you two ever going to get back together?" Sacha asked.
"Yeah it's fairly obvious you clearly love each other," Edward added, "Oh come on you think you can feel chemistry off me and Serena…it's those two who's got chemistry."
"Where did you two go?" Eleanor asked.
"Playing kiss-assey?" Michael asked cheekily and he got an infamous glare shot at him.
"No Maconie and Maconie locked us out," Serena looked to Jonny and Imogen who did nothing, "Nice try," she said to them and sat down next to her mother.
"Actually Serena…" Sacha said looking guilty, "It was me…I suggested it."
"What?" Serena asked Sacha angrily.
"Only for a laugh," He held both hands up, "If I knew it was that cold…I wouldn't have done it."
"So it was you two?!" Ric exclaimed, "Who turned the lights down and put on Phantom Of The Opera," he looked at them with disapproval.
"What the hell Rena?!" Michael yelled it was the first time Adrienne heard someone else use the pet name.
"Serves you right for locking us out," Serena crossed one leg over her other leg, "Should think before you act."
"You scared Immie!" Gina and Jonny said together, "She was really scared," Jonny added.
"Grow a backbone," Serena said to Imogen, "You should just think before you act…besides you're all fine."
"What if Daniel had been there?!" Sacha asked sounding angry and protective.
"If he had we wouldn't have done it," Edward jumped in before it went any further, "We swear."
"Anyway," Gemma said smiling, "Jac and Jonny…you two gonna get together?"
"Is that a squeal off an F2 I hear?" Jac asked and everyone laughed.
"Don't forget Naylor…we witnessed you cry on Gemma…be careful," Harry grinned and Jac glared at him, "Anyway got question so are you?"
"We….urrrr…we," Jac didn't know what to say she knew she could trust Jonny, but she didn't want it to mess up again.
Your mouth is a revolver firing bullets in the sky.
Your love is like a soldier, loyal till you die.
And I've been looking at the stars for a long, long time.
I've been putting out fires all my life.
Everybody wants a flame, but they don't want to get burnt.
And today is our turn.
Eleanor started playing the song thinking that it suited the situation, "Well?" Mo pressed for an answer.
"I urr," Jonny was lost for words he wanted Jac to talk first, but they were both lost for words.
"I'm in if you are," Jac blurted out.
"Oh how romantic," Jonny said laughing and Jac smiled, "Well I'm in if you are?"
"Come here then you big soft Celt," Jac and Jonny kissed which made everyone smile and clap, "Best move your stuff in then," she pulled away.
"I will," Jonny said grinning finally he was with Jac again.
"I've been meaning to ask," Jac said and she interlocked her hand with Jonny's other hand.
"What's that?" Jonny asked curiously.
"What's that weird knot thing I asked you about a while ago? You never answered," Jac asked and Jonny pulled her onto his lap.
"Do you mean a Celtic Knot?" Jonny asked.
"Well it's a weird knot," Jac shrug.
"It's a Celtic Knot Jac," Jonny answered, "Gina and Immie have necklaces with them on."
Gina unclipped the necklace from her neck and gave it to Jac to look at, "Here be careful though," Gina said. Gina's was the Eternity Celtic knot that symbolizes never-ending eternal circle of life. Chorus:
Days like these lead to, nights like this leads to love like ours,
You light the spark in my bonfire heart.
People like us, we don't need that much.
Just someone that starts, starts the spark in our bonfire hearts.
The song carried on playing and Jac rested her head on Jonny's shoulder again, "Here," she handed it back to Gina.
Eleanor turned it off and watched the moment, "That's so pretty," Chantelle said observing it before Gina put it back on.
"Never take it off," Gina said and she tucked it back inside her shirt, "Finally they've gotten together…now all we need to do is-"
"Don't you dare!" Serena yelled, "I know what you're doing."
"OK afterwards we'll get you drunk," Gina said grinning, "That'll be interesting."
"Serena drunk is interesting," Edward admitted, "Had some random moments."
"I'm just relieved Janny is back on," Mo said grinning, "Finally they can stop pining over one another."
"We did not pine," Jonny said angrily to Mo, "OK maybe I did but Jac didn't."
"Ah ha yeah that's what you think," Mo sat down next to Sacha, "We've noticed it…if you two didn't have your heads banged together we were going to lock you in a cupboard."
"Yeah well we're together now," Jonny slipped his hands around her waist and Jac didn't slap him away she smiled lightly, "And it's going to stay that way."
"Hopefully," Jac said and she kissed Jonny again, "Oh talking about this what are you lot going to do for Christmas?" Jac asked Gina and Imogen, "Because obviously you're blocked off."
"Oh yeah," Gina said and she looked at her parents, "What are we going to do?"
"No idea," Mr Maconie said.
"We can talk about that later…let's get this play on again," Jonny said and Jac got off his lap, "Where were we?"
"Act four," Jac answered.
A/N: I GOT JANNY TOGETHER! I had to I love them and I want them together! Pleeeease review, pretty please! xxxxxxx
