"This week, we will be performing songs from the longest running band of all time." Rebekah explained. "This band first hit American shores in the 60s and they are still together this day. To save your guesses, we will be covering The Rolling Stones. So does anyone want to do as the band says and Start Us Up?"
"Yeah, I'll do it." Livvy declared.
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get no satisfaction
Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm driving in my car, and that man comes on the radio
He's telling me more and more about some useless information
Supposed to fire my imagination I can't get no, oh no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey that's what I say
I can't get no satisfaction
I can't get guy reaction
Cause I try and I try and I try and I try
I can't get no, I can't get no
When I'm riding round the world, and I'm doing this and signing that
And I'm trying to make some girl who tells me baby better come back next week
Cause you see I'm on a losing streak, I can't get no, oh no, no, no
Hey, hey, hey that's what I say
I can't get no, I can't get no
I can't get no satisfaction, no satisfaction
No satisfaction, no satisfaction
Livvy then walked out of the room and began to head to class. She needed to figure out a way to get Odette to like her because she needed to know what it would be like to be with her. She knew it wouldn't be easy because the girl had already rejected her when she hadn't planned on asking her out, but since it was a few weeks ago, maybe she had changed her mind about it.
After school, she decided to head to the Starbucks where she knew that Odette liked to get her coffee from.
"What's up?" She asked.
"I'm just getting some coffee." Odette replied as she took a sip of her caramel macchiato.
"So do you wanna go out some time?" Livvy questioned. "I know this great restaurant in the city that we could go to."
"You know I've asked around the school about you and everyone that I've asked has told me that you're straight." Odette replied. "So why are you asking me out?"
"Well my boyfriend cheated on me with another guy." Livvy answered.
"So you want to be with a girl to get even with him." Odette remarked. "Leave me out of it."
"I never said that." Livvy corrected. "Maybe I just like you and want to go out with you, but maybe I'm stupid for thinking you could like me back."
"Come to my room tonight." Odette remarked. "It's in the junior dorm."
"So you do want to go with me?" Livvy asked.
"No, but I will have sex with you if you want." Odette replied. Livvy was a bit taken aback by it. "I don't want to start something, but if you really have this girl-on-girl fantasy, I'll do this once. The offer stands for tonight only because these legs won't be open forever."
Livvy wasn't entirely sure what to say as Odette walked off. She did feel like she needed a drink and grabbed a milk off the shelf. She'd never had sex period and wasn't sure if she wanted her first time to be with a girl. However, there was a possibility that if she accepted Odette's offer, something more could grow from it.
Yoana went to Bella's room to meet for a swimming date. She heard the girl singing from behind the door.
Angie, Angie when will those clouds all disappear
Angie, Angie where will it lead us from here
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie you can't say we never tried
Angie, you're beautiful, but aint it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you remember all though nights we cried
Oh Angie don't you weep, all your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie aint it time we said goodbye
With no loving in our souls and no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you baby everywhere I look I see your eyes
There aint a woman that comes close to you come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Angie aint it good to be alive
Angie, Angie you can't say we never tried.
Yoana knocked on the door as soon as she was finished. Bella opened it and her girlfriend smiled at her and she smiled back.
"So are you ready to go?" Yoana asked.
"Yeah, let's get our suits on and head to the pool." She declared. Since they were doing it after school hours, they could wear non-school-related swimwear. So Yoana wore a black bikini and Bella wore a green ring bikini.
Once they got to the pool, Yoana headed down there and jumped right in. She thought it was nice that they had a pool that they could come to whenever they wanted. She waited for Bella to come in.
"So are you just gonna stand there or are you gonna swim?" Yoana asked.
"Maybe I will and maybe I won't." Bella replied. "What are you going to do if I don't?"
"I might just have to pull you in." Yoana stated.
"Well we can't have that." Bella declared as she dipped her foot in the pool. Yoana swam over and pulled her in, with elicited a yelp and a splash.
"So you know that I love you more than anything." Yoana stated. "Nothing could keep me away from you."
"Why do I have the feeling that a song is coming?" Bella asked with a smile before I began.
Childhood living is easy to do
The things you wanted I bought them for you
Graceless fellow you know who I am
You know I can't let you slide through my hands
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses couldn't drag me away
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I don't have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Let's do some living before we die
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses we'll ride them someday
Wild horses couldn't drag me away
Wild, wild horses we'll ride them someday
"You know you're great at the concept of serenading your lover." Bella commented.
"I'm also very good at kissing." Yoana stated before she pressed her lips against Bella's.
"Are we interrupting anything?" Audrie asked. The two of them parted and looked at her and Claire with matching blushes. Both of them were in their school suits.
"What are you doing here?" Yoana questioned.
"We're still doing swimming lessons." Audrie stated.
"Let's go somewhere else." Bella suggested as she and Yoana got out of the water and headed to the locker room. The two of stripped off their bikinis, but redressing didn't take place until a few minutes later.
"So are you doing okay?" Audrie asked Claire.
"I really didn't think it would hurt this much." Claire admitted. "I loved him."
"Some people say that you shouldn't fall in love early because it only ends in heartbreak." Audrie replied. "I don't believe that, but I do think that you were looking for love in all the wrong places. It is a good thing that he ended it though."
"How can you say that?" Claire asked while crying.
"Think about it. If this had gotten out, it could have ruined both of your lives." Audrie pointed out. "Not to mention, you really didn't even have much of a future with him. Student-teacher relationships don't ever end well."
"None of this is making me feel better." Claire admitted.
"Well maybe you should listen to the Rolling Stones." Audrie suggested before she began to sing.
I saw her today at the reception
A glass of wine in her hand
I knew she was gonna meet her connection
At her feet was, footloose man
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
You can't always get what you want
But if you try sometimes, well you might find
You get what you need
Oh yea-ay (hey-hey-hey, ooh)
And I went down to the demonstration
To get my fair share of abuse
Singing 'We're gonna vent our frustration
If we don't, we're gonna blow a 50-amp fuse'
Sing it to me, now
(You can't always get what you want)
(You can't always get what you want)
(You can't always get what you want)
But if you try sometimes, well you just might find
You get what you need
But if you try sometimes well you just might find
You get what you need
"So what am I supposed to do?" Claire asked.
"I would suggest being single right now and focusing on Nationals." The brunette suggested. "I have to find a way for the competition not to come between my boyfriend and I."
"How can you do that? How can you date someone from a different school?" The blonde inquired.
"Well it's not easy, but I just want to do it." Audrie answered. "I can't explain how we get it to work. So anyway, we should get to work on some laps. Coach wants to check on your progress tomorrow."
That night, Livvy headed up to Odette's room. She was nervous, not only about the offer, but also because she had never been to the junior dorms before. She couldn't help but notice that they seemed to be nicer than the sophomore dorms. She knocked on Odette's door. She saw the girl was dressed in a black negligee.
"You know I almost thought that you weren't going to come." Odette replied.
"Why do you want to do it like this?" Livvy asked.
"Because I was hurt pretty bad from my last breakup, so I just want to do something without attachment for a little while." Odette explained. "I believe that this song puts it best."
I'll never be your beast of burden
My back is broad but it's a-hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
I'll never be your beast of burden
I walked for miles now my feet are hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
Am I hard enough, am I rough enough
Am I rich enough, I'm not too blind to see
I'll never be your beast of burden
So let's go home and draw the curtains
Music's on the radio, come on baby make sweet love to me
Am I hard enough, am I rough enough
Am I rich enough, I'm not too blind to see
You're a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty girl
You're a pretty, pretty, pretty, pretty girl
I'll never be your beast of burden
I walked for miles now my feet are hurting
All I want is for you to make love to me
"Let's just do this." Livvy declared as she began to take her clothes off. Although she didn't really know what to expect, she didn't expect it to feel as good as it did. "Can we do that again?"
"We can do it as many times as you want." Odette promised.
At the end of the week, Rebekah had the girls dressed in black dresses and goth makeup as they performed.
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they are painted black
With flowers and my love both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens every day
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted black
With just one more week before Nationals, she wanted to make sure everything was perfect.
So Odette and Livvy hooked up, but will there be anything more for them? Also will Claire be able to find happiness? The songs are "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction", "Angie", "Wild Horses", "You Can't Always Get What You Want", "Beast of Burden" and "Paint It, Black". Please don't forget to review.
