Get In, Fit In

Hey guys! Only twenty one days of school left, three weeks. Well only two for me cause I'm gonna be out of town for a week. Right and about that, I'll update the night before I leave and continue to write chapters in my notebooks cause I don't have a laptop and I can't update during the trip. But when I get back you guys will get a whole bunch of chapters. I promise lol.

I haven't got a clue what's going to happen in this chapter, but I know it'll be interesting. I try to make my chapters as interesting as they can be without going over board lol. Um, hopefully I'll be able to squeeze a Blake and Chase talk in here somewhere. Most likely somewhere at the end or the middle, I'm not too sure just yet.

A/N-This one is named after Ciara's "Get In, Fit In" cause it's a good song.

Disclaimer-Don't own Step Up 2 or anything that has to do with Once On This Island, if I owned Step Up 2 Rob Hoffman would be mine Oh and I don't own Crash Here Tonight by Toby Keith but I did change a few of the words to fit with the story.

Later that night around one in the morning Andie's phone starting buzzing in her ear. She frowned in her sleep and felt around for it, when she finally found it she answered it without opening her eyes and pressed it to her ear.

"You okay?" She muttered.

"No," Came Chase's quiet reply.

"You miss him already?" She asked her eyes still closed.

"Yea, I've been waiting for him to run to my room cause our parents are arguing again and it just hit me that he doesn't live here anymore." Chase said softly.

"It'll be okay Chase." Andie said gently blinking her eyes open. "I'm here and I know Blake's there for you too."

Chase was quiet.

"Go to sleep Chase," Andie said softly. "I'm right here, I won't hang up until I know you're asleep."

"You promise?" Chase sounded like a lost child and Andie nodded even though he couldn't see her.

"I promise."

Chase let out a long sigh and Andie began to hum slightly, she'd do this for Chase and Chase only so he'd better not ever tell anyone. Taking a deep breath, Andie closed her eyes and opened her mouth.

I almost said I love you
Could I really be that kind of girl
See one candle burning in your eye
And watch my heart fill up with butterflies
I almost said I need you
Boy I shouldn't go there anymore
Act like I never been in love before
You probably think it's my first time
Is this what love's all about
Am I getting in too deep
Wouldn't want to freak you out
Make a promise I can't keep

So close your eyes and hum along
And I'll sing you one more love song
If everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

Close your eyes and hum along
And I'll sing you one more love song
If everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

Boy if everything is still alright
Why don't you just crash here tonight

Andie slowly backed out of the last note and ended it with a humming sound. She listened for a moment or two and smiled when she heard Chase snoring slightly.

"Sleep well Chase." Andie whispered. "I love you."

Andie quietly hung up the phone before snuggling into her pillow and falling back asleep.

The next morning Chase picked her up like normal. When she got into the car he smiled at her and leaned over in his seat. He cupped her cheek and kissed her gently, Andie kissed him back and they didn't pull apart until both of them were close to passing out from lack of air.

"Thank you," He told her quietly. "For singing to sleep last night."

"No problem." Andie replied smiling. "Just know I'm not about to be doing that every night, that was a one time deal mister."

Chase pouted slightly and Andie laughed,

"That's not fair." He said taking her hand in his, they pulled away from the curb and headed toward MSA. Andie squeezed his hand and looked at him carefully, he looked slightly upset but more sad than anything.

"Why are you watching me?" Chase asked quietly.

"Make sure you're alright." Andie replied simply.

"Could you stop?" Chase asked weakly. "It's making me nervous."

Andie laughing and nodded before turning to look out her window. They talked about little things on the way to school and when they arrived Shane and Moose were waiting for them in the parking lot.

"Hey guys." Andie said climbing out of the car. "What's up?"

"Nothing waiting for you two." Shane said. "How're you doing Chase?"

Chase shrugged,

"Okay,"

Shane gave him a small smile and patted his arm. He and Moose knocked fists and Andie did the handshake with her best friend.

"So, you have rehearsal tonight huh?" Moose asked slinging his arm over her shoulder.

"Yep, til five." Andie sighed.

"Don't worry." Shane said smiling. "Before you know it we'll be taking our final bow."

Andie snorted.

"Hey Andie!"

They all turned to see Tony running toward them,

"What's up Tony?" Andie asked.

"I…I don't…know….who…who did it….but you gotta….you gotta come see." He panted. "Come on."

He grabbed her hand and began to run toward the school. Chase and the others followed, Andie noticed that Tony was pulling her toward her locker. And when they got there a huge crowd was gathered around it.

"Out of the way!" Tony said pushing people so Andie could get through to see.

Andie eyes widened when she finally got through the crowd. Across her locker, spray painted in bright green were the words 'drama slut'. But not only that, someone had dented her locker up so that it looked like it'd be impossible to open.

"What the hell." Andie muttered.

She walked closer to it and looked the locker over, she didn't really have to guess at who'd done it but without any evidence what so ever they couldn't prove it.

"What's going on here?"

Andie turned to see Blake push his way through the crowd, he looked at the locker for a moment and Andie was the only one who saw the anger flash in his dark brown eyes.

"Who did this?" Blake asked the crowd of people. "Does anyone know who is responsible for this?"

No one said anything and Blake let out a sigh,

"Blake it's really not that hard to figure out." Chase said.

Andie looked at him and saw the anger in his eyes too and she frowned, then she looked at Moose and Shane they too looked pissed, was she the only one not really upset by this?

"Chase you can't just go accusing people." Blake said softly.

Chase huffed slightly and crossed his arms over his chest.

"Andie, come with me to my office." Blake said.

Andie nodded and after thanking Tony for bringing her to her locker she followed Blake with Chase, Moose, and Shane on her heels. The odd thing about the trip to the office was that they didn't see Taylor or any of her friends once.

"Taylor did it," Chase said the moment Blake had closed the office door behind him.

"Yes Chase we all know Taylor did it," Blake said sitting at his desk. "But how are we going to prove that?"

Chase opened his mouth and then closed it.

"You know what's funny to me?" Shane asked. "Is that the two of you are all upset about this and the one who got called the drama slut hasn't said a word."

They all looked at Andie who raised both her eyebrows.

"I ain't got nothing to say," She said shrugging. "I'm through with Taylor, I was done with her after I beat her ass."

"Yea but Andie." Moose said walking over to her. "You can't let her just call you all kinds of names."

"I don't care what she calls me." Andie said. "She's just jealous because I go out with Chase, and nothing she says is going to change that."

They were all silent as they looked at her.

"But what does piss me off is that my story for Mr. Valentine is in my locker and it's bent all to hell." Andie said.

"I'm sure he'll understand." Blake said.

"Naw, that was one the best I've done in a long freaking time." Andie said. "Two me two days to finish that stupid thing."

"Andie we could go try to open your locker." Chase said shrugging. "If it's cool with Blake."

Andie turned to look at Blake,

"Please Blake, that's my best story." She gave him her best puppy dog eyes.

"Go on, I'll excuse you all from first period to get it open." Blake said waving his hand.

Andie grabbed Chase's hand and began to pull him from the office, he grabbed Shane's and she grabbed Moose's. When they got back to her locker they all stared at it for a moment,

"See but the thing is," Andie said quietly. "I moved into Chase's locker a while ago and only keep important things in here."

"That's why they did it to this one." Shane said. "Taylor knows you keep important things in here."

"Well let's see if we can pry it open." Chase said.

They all moved toward the locker and each one took hold of a poking out edge.

"On three." Shane said.

"One," Chase said planting his feet on the ground.

"Two." Moose flexed his fingers.

"Three!" Andie tightened her grip at the last moment.

They all pulled together and the locker door might have moved two inches.

"Again," Andie said.

They pulled at the locker door for about ten minutes and when they finally did stop to take a brake you could barely see inside of it. Andie tried looking in it but it was too dark to see anything.

"How did they do this?" Moose wondered out loud.

"Hammer." Andie replied simply. "You hit it as close to the middle as you can and then you hit the edges to make it get stuck in place."

"You know so much about it." Shane teased and Andie stuck her tongue out at her.

"If I had a freaking screwdriver I could get it open." Andie muttered.

"Someone has got to have a screwdriver around here." Chase said.

"We ain't got time to go look though." Moose said.

"It's almost open anyway," Shane said. "Come on like ten more minutes of pulling and it'll be open."

They all nodded and took hold of the door where they were holding it before. This time Chase gave the signal and they set to work. Pretty soon though they could rock the door back and forth.

"I've got an idea!" Shane said suddenly.

"If it helps us get this open quicker, please share." Chase said flexing his hands.

"Lift Andie up and let her kick the door off." Shane said smiling.

Andie raised both eyebrows while both Chase and Moose smiled.

"That could work," Moose said nodding.

"But why can't you lift Shane?" Andie asked.

"Cause, you're legs are way stronger than mine." Shane said grinning.

"Okay, Andie this is how we could do it." Chase said. "I'll pick you up and you can run along the way and kick it off on the way, deal?"

Andie looked at Chase for a moment before sighing and nodding. Chase walked over to him and she wrapped an arm around his neck,

"Just don't drop me." Andie told him quietly.

"I won't." Chase assured her. "Ready?"

Andie nodded. Chase picked her up and walked fastly while Andie's feet ran along the wall. There was the sound of metal breaking and then a very loud clang when the locker door hit the concrete floor. Chase lowered Andie back to the floor slowly and she thanked him by kissing his cheek.

"Um Andie," Moose said looking into the locker.

"Yea?" Andie asked looking at him.

"This locker's empty."

Andie's eyes widened and she ran over to the locker.

"No!" She nearly yelled as she slapped her hands into the bottom of the empty locker. "No, no, no!"

"Andie what all was in there?" Shane asked.

"My story!" Andie yelled her hands searching all over the locker though it was very clearly empty. "My notebook that had all my English notes in it! My choir stuff! My fucking script!"

"They took your script?" Moose asked. "The script for musical?"

Andie nodded, her eyes filling with tears.

"All of it's gone!" Andie's fists balled up. "Shit!"

She hit the back of the locker with her fists before turning away from the locker and sliding to the floor. Andie wouldn't let the tears fall, she refused to let Taylor make her cry ever again. She could care less about them spray painting her locker and calling her names, but taking her story that she spent two days on along with her choir and musical stuff was just being cruel.

"Hey Andie," Shane said quietly as Chase bent down next to her and pulled her into a hug.

"Yea?"

"Is the title of you story To Rise Once More?" Shane asked looking at a long strip of paper.

"Yes," Andie said pulling away from Chase. "Why?"

"I think I found it." Shane said, she pointed to a small trash can that was full of ripped up paper. "I actually think I found your choir stuff and your script and your notebook of English notes."

Andie scrambled over to the trashcan and looked down at it. Everything was shredded. But she picked up some of the pieces none the less and read them.

"This is one of your lines." She said softly holding the strip out to Shane. "We could put it all back together if we tried."

Shane gently took the strip of paper from her.

"Andie, we'll just get you some more music and another script." She told her quietly placing a hand on her shoulder.

"And my story?" Andie asked. "What am I supposed to do about that?"

"We could sort it out." Moose suggested quietly. "Fine the strips of your story, put it together and you could re-write it."

"But it's my piece I was planning on entering in the competition, it's due in two days. It'll take forever to sort through all this and then piece it together and re-write it." Andie said glaring at the trashcan of shredded paper.

"We'll help you." Chase said softly. "We all will and I know the crew will, we'll get it done."

"We should show this to Blake though." Shane said picking up the trashcan.

"Come on let's go." Chase said.

He helped Andie to her feet and they all headed back the way they came with the trashcan full of shredded paper.

When Blake got done ranting and raving about the shredded paper he told Andie that she could head to the library and start piecing her story back together. He agreed that Moose, Shane, and Chase along with the rest of the crew could go, seeing as how they didn't have long of a time to sort it out. But Chase stayed behind, he told Andie he'd catch up.

"What do you need Chase?" Blake asked as his little brother sat down.

"Last night," Chase began quietly. "Mom and Dad were arguing, but it wasn't a normal argument."

"How so?" Blake asked frowning.

"They were arguing over something Dad did." Chase said slowly. "Apparently his phone rang and mom answered it and it was some other lady."

Blake nodded.

"Blake, is Dad cheating on Mom?" Chase asked looking up at his older brother.

"Chase," Blake sighed. "There's something you need to know about Dad,"

"What?" Chase asked.

"Dad likes to have—um—play things on the side for when he gets bored with mom."

Chase raised both eyebrows.

"How do you know?" He asked.

"He—back when Brandy and me were together before we got out of high school—Dad offered her to be one of this—women on the side."

"No way," Chase said his eyes widening. "He wanted Brandy to stop being with you so that he could have her?"

"No, that's not what I said." Blake said patiently. "He didn't mind if Brandy stayed with me, he just wanted to make sure that he got a piece of her."

"Dude, that is intense." Chase said. "So that's why……oh now I get it."

"Oh really?" Blake asked raising an eyebrow.

"Brandy left not because of you, but because of Dad." Chase said. "Well partly because of you but still mostly because of Dad."

"Yea," Blake nodded. "She told me the other day. Do you remember about a week before we broke up Dad and I got into an argument?"

"The argument that shook the house." Chase muttered nodding.

"What?" Blake asked frowning.

"That's the name that me and Alex gave it," Chase said shrugging. "Worst argument in the Collins household to date."

Blake just nodded.

"So you're telling me to watch out for him?" Chase asked.

"Yes, I'm not going to lie to you." Blake said. "But Andie's beautiful and Dad was already checking her out when she came and had dinner."

Chase nodded,

"But, how am I supposed to stop it?" He asked.

"I don't know." Blake replied. "But we'll work something out, I promise you."

"Okay, can I go to the library now?" Chase asked.

Blake nodded and watched as his little brother stood and headed for the door.

"Don't worry big brother," Chase said without looking back. "I can take care of myself and Andie."

Blake smirked but held his tongue and let Chase go.

They sat in the library all day, they were surrounding one large round table. The shredded paper had been dumped onto it and they didn't even have half of the first page found yet. But the parts that they had found they laid on a plastic cover and made sure that they would be able to just pull the other side over and cover them up when it got time to go.

"Don't worry Andie." Smiles said when the last bell of the day rang and they got kicked out the library.

"Yea, we'll make it right chica." Missy said hugging the girl.

"We don't have long though." Andie said. "And it's four freaking pages."

"You and me can work on it after your rehearsals." Chase said gently.

"I'll help too." Shane said nodding.

"Thanks guys," Andie said. "All of you guys."

When Shane and Andie arrived at rehearsal they instantly sat down and began to stretch. Andie frowned slightly the entire time,

"What's wrong?" Shane asked.

"Just a headache." Andie replied.

"You sure?" Shane pressed.

Andie nodded and sent her a smile,

"I'm sure."

After their workout with the rest of the cast, Blake decided that they were going to run Ti Moune's Dance and When We Are Wed.

"Andie are you okay enough to do this?" Blake asked when she walked past him.

"Yes, I'm okay." Andie nodded.

"Okay, Mr. Bandy are you ready?" Blake asked.

From where the orchestra sat two hands popped up and gave them a thumbs up.

"Okay everyone make little clumps around Andie." Blake said. "Andie you stand in the middle of the stage."

They all started to move and do as they were told.

"Okay and counting off, chorus you start off." Blake said. "And five six seven eight."

"We dance."

Andie began to walk back and forth shyly and nervously.

"We dance."

She looked out into the empty theater and wrung her hands together slowly.

"We dance."

They held the last dance for a full four count and Andie made sure she was back where she started by the time they finished.

"We dance!"

The music broke out and Andie set to work on the routine she was supposed to do. Closing her eyes she didn't want to see all the people looking at her, it was bad enough she'd agreed to do this but right now she was the center of attention and it was not to her liking. When they started to clap Andie broke out into what she'd come up with and did it perfectly.

"Very good, now let's run When We Are Wed."

Andie put her hands on her hips and tried to catch her breath. Then she moved to where she was supposed to be and waited for Blake to give her the signal for her to come in.

This was very interesting and came completely out of nowhere lol. I'd been planning the killing of Andie's locker for a while now but never could fit it in. We all know Taylor did it but really to shred her story, script, choir stuff and English notes? Girl is asking for it again lol.

A/N-I think Andie took the whole situation rather well don't you? Lol.

Reviews keep my fingers typing chapters!
