Sorry about the lateness of the chapter, I have been so busy lately and my laptop played up, excuse, excuses anyways here it is!

Watching Red Dwarf at the mo and they just made a joke about Glenn Miller - "We don't want him, go away! You took him, you can keep the smegger!" :') Aha, I love this show. Onwards with the story!

James. P.O.V

I had excused myself from the group huddle we seemed to have submerged into when this kid Adam and Katie were having a huge argument. Katie had almost ran from the place leaving behind a shameful boy behind which he frankly in my opinion deserved greatly. I didn't know it had been a budding friendship and maybe on their way to something more but still after all she's been through including lately the kid should never have lied in the first place. Like everyone though, I suppose he should have a second chance.

A day before Regionals and all of a sudden all this drama seems to appear, something she said she wouldn't get involved in and yet here she was with some of her own. Mind you she seems to be acting a little different lately anyway like she can carry the world on her shoulders still but now knows how to, maybe it's because she's made some friends apart from a few and she did seem to be enjoying the course. I still needed to find her though.

As I searched for her, my mind went back to the last point thinking about how she had changed a little. For starters she was a lot more out-going here and she did like to sing and dance which she had never done before and she had never said so to us. To be honest I had never thought her to be having more than Kyle as a crush either so what should I know?

Maybe I should have words with this kid, maybe he was different now like he said he was to her earlier. But first I need to find Katie or otherwise Kendall would kill me, speaking of Kendall, what was he doing now? Most likely getting Adam to confess and tell him off much like Mama Knight would. Now that I can see happen.

I had gone around the hotel twice, checked the rooms twice and now on my back towards the stage until I had the best idea pop into my head. I knew exactly where she would be, ever since she was young she loved the moon and the stars and loved to look at them, she used them as a metaphor for us being stars and her mother the moon to guide them when they got lost. I remember asking her who she was but she chose not to answer shrugging it off. She would be outside somewhere.

I found her sitting underneath the tree on her back watching the night sky, sort of picturesque, I always got scared when she looked like that mainly because I knew she was older now and would get older still. If this was how I was feeling, I couldn't imagine how Kendall was or Mama Knight for that fact. I didn't want to disturb her but again knew I really should, I had to fix this after all I had been ordered to by everyone, had my fair share of this sort of thing and maybe because I had once said to that Kyle boy, Katie had become like a sister to me.

"Hey Katie"

"James, I thought it was you"

"I can't be that obvious"

"Please, I smelled Cuda man spray from half a mile away which I thought you gave up by the way!?"

"Right, I should have known you'd say that, I'll try to get off the man spray for you"

"Thank you. Now why don't you tell me why you're really here?"

"Ah, well that's…Katie; I think you should give the boy a second chance"

"I never thought you'd say that. You hated his guts as far as I remember and actually stated that if he ever came within five inches of me the next time you saw him personally you'd show him pain. You four all warned me about him and now you say I should give the oaf a second chance?"

"Yes"

"And the others have come to the same conclusion?"

"Yes"

"Why should I give the idiot a second chance because what if he does the same things again? Why should I? Tell me that"

"Wouldn't you want the same? We're only human"

I could tell she was thinking it over much like everything she does when she feels uncertain or threatened about her position in power, just ask Kendall. She finally looked at me nodding slowly as I helped her up and linked arms with her as we walked back in.

I watched as Adam came up to her and started to apologise profusely about what he did in the past and just now. Kendall, Carlos, Logan and Mrs Knight came up to pat me on the shoulder as we watched our sister blossom out more and finally understand how to give out second chances even when you think people didn't sometimes deserve them. All about equality really and I like to think I played a massive role in this, but there's one thing I need to sort out and that's Adam home clothes. Yeesh.
