Later on in that day Timber and Scourge are heading to Manic's place, everyone is just going to hang out, no wedding, no Alex, no nothing. It's about 7:56 when they arrived at the place. Timber was finally chill and relaxed after the whole event at Scourge's home, he still can't believe that Scourge is a Actually King. But Scourge on the other hand was a little nervous, he just hid it well enough so Timber wouldn't see, they reached the door and knocked on it and waited for someone to answer.

"Well you ready to just relax with us again?" Timber turned to scourge and gave him half a questionable face and a concerned look. Scourge sighs slowly than answers with a. "Sure. But What exactly are we doing?"

"We are just going to hang and talk about life." Timber held his hands in his pockets.

"Ew. Sounds dumb, but I'm in either way." Just then Manic opened the door and looked out to see the two boys. He was not expecting to see Scourge there with Timber, Manic just stood there for a few seconds then finally spoke. "Hey. Glad to see you came" he was weak saying that, almost sounded like he was holding back a cry...Scourge shook it off then stepped inside the house along with Timber, the two boys walked into the kitchen because that's were the rest are. Once they got there they could see Roxie and chris, Chris was at the kitchen counter and Roxie was sitting ON the kitchen counter. Then They both notice scourge and Timber walk in.

"Hey! Scourge your here~" Roxie cheered

"Great to see you!" Chris said with a small smile on his face. Scourge just nodded and walked over to the counter and sat down with the rest, Timber went over to the fridge to look for some food for himself because he hasn't eaten for a while, but Manic stopped him.

"Timber No.. I'll order some food if your hungry" Manic sounded really tired and also angry...Scourge could hear it. Manic order a pizza and then waited with the rest.

"So Manic has he called back?" Roxie began to talk first because it was getting a little quite.

"Oh, um not yet..." Manic folded his hands together and looked at his friend.

"Oh. Well what do you think he'll say!!" Chris jumped into the conversation with a excited tone.

"What are you guys talking about?" Scourge asked the group. They all relized He didn't know what they were talking about so they explained.

"Manic meet someone who has BIG connections in the music business, he heard Manic sing and he was interested, he wants to hear us play for him!!" Roxie explained to Scourge all happy and jumpy.

"Wow! That's a big step for you guys. Who is he?" Scourge looked toward Roxie for her to answer.

"Oh a guy called Adam Grey. He's famous for finding the next best singer!!" Roxie tried to hide her excitement but it was no use, she keeped jumping in her set.

"You guys can become famous! That's really awsome, so you gonna sing for him right!?" Scourge asked looking at Manic now for him to answer, but he was just looking down at the counter holding his hands together.

"Manic!" He looked up to face Scourge then spoke

"Um yeah I don't know..." Manic sighed and walked over to the fridge to find a drink. The rest jumped at what he just said and began to throw a fit.

"Wait what!? How come!?" Chris said getting up from his set.

"Because it may not even happen. The guys busy he probably won't get to us, and even if he did what makes you think that he'll pick us to be the next big thing.." Manic sat down and drank his drink, the rest silenced themselves, and just wondered at what he said.

"Y-yeah but shouldn't we at least try?" Chris said softly

"...if we want to be put up for disappointment, then yeah sure okay let's do it..." Manic was hopeless he thought he wasn't good enough... that's what Alex said when he got the news about Manic's interaction with the music producer. "Manic come on be realistic, what makes you think that he will sit down with a group of young adults and hear them out. It's not going to happen, he has other people to hear, and honestly babe it may go no where. Some singers are done with in about three to four years cause their so washed out. So don't get your hopes up for this cause it probably will never happen." Manic just keeped thinking about this over and over again, he did want to try but.. Alex thinks it could be a waste.

"..you know your good enough." Scourge said quietly, but the group heard what he said and listened up.

"Good enough, isn't great, OR outstanding. We aren't doing this, it's no use.." Manic was going to get up and walk away but Scourge got in frount of him before he could leave the room.

"Get out of my way Scourge!" Manic said in a irritated tone, Scourge did not move a inch so he began to talk.

"You want to know the truth Manic. I honestly think your band is Amazing your music came long ways, your Outstanding, your voice is b-beautiful, you have a true gift, do you really want to throw that away because your probably scared of failing? But even if you do... you can always learn from it. And I'm sure there is going to be another chance, if you just try this once!" Scourge placed his hands on Manic's shoulders and waited for him to answer to all that.

"...it won't go anywhere..." Manic looked down and walked away. The rest looked at Scourge then to Manic who was out of the room. Scourge knows Manic wants to do this he's just worried and scared, so he wasn't going to let Manic walk away and feel like this, he's going after him.

"No!" Scourge yelled from the kitchen which made everyone jump and look at him, he then began to walk to the room where Manic entered. He saw Manic sit on the couch looking out the window, he walked over but he didn't sit infrount or beside him, instead he just stood behind the couch.

"I'm not going to let you walk away from this! Your so much better than you think." Manic still faced the window but began to speak.

"How am I better.."

"Your songs are true, theirs meaning behind it...It's you! But I'm not gonna say all that cheesy hearted crap cause I'm not that person, but I will say your fantastic at singing" Manic turned his head just a little so he could see Scourge in the corner of his eye. He knew Manic wanted him to continue..so he did.

"I'm not sit back at let you lose and give up on the one thing I know you've been dreaming of, So I'm gonna stay here, With You!, help You, and I'm gonna make that one dream become your reality, because damn it Manic! You deserve that in your life!!. I'm going to stay here by your side and help you get that dream..." Scourge finished what he was saying, everything he said was true, Manic did deserve this because he's been to hell and back and survived. The others pecked around the corner and heard the whole thing, now everyone was just waiting for Manic to answer. He then got up and faced Scourge, he walked over to him, stopped in frount of him and softly said.

"Will you? Will you really stay and help?" Scourge sighed and placed his hands on Manic's shoulders again.

"...God I'm gonna do something that I honest never do..." Scourge lowers his head then slowly goes down on one knee. This got the others behind the wall to jump in surprise. It also made Manic flinch at what he did.

"Manic..." Scourge grabbed Manic's hand and held it, then looks up at him.

"I promise you! I'm going to stay here and help you. I'm going to make your dream a reality..." Scourge keeps looking up at Manic and waits for what he may say.

"Heh...Your so stupid...get up." Scourge does as he's told and gets up, Manic just stands there smiling and said

"Okay. Can we start tomorrow?" Scourge gave a grin, then nodded...

"You bet!...My King~" Manic smiled even more and looked away to see the other's peeking behind the wall.

"You can come in." They walked in slowly then stopped in frount of the two.

"We start tomorrow boys and girl~" Manic said proudly. The group then cheered and hugged each other, but not Scourge cause he HATES group hugs. The pizza arrived and everyone just had fun playing cards or singing. Timber keeped listen to 'House Of Memories' by Panic! At the disco, Everyone still danced to it cause they were to happy. It was a great night. After that everyone has left Manic's place but not Scourge he stayed with Manic.

"You should head home, Alex is going to be here soon."

"I said I wouldn't leave~ I promised." Scourge said sitting on the couch. Manic smiles then chuckles softly. Scourge loved that sound it made him feel really happy.

"But you should I'll...be fine.." Scourge knew that was a bad lie. So He got up, walked toward Manic and took His hand, then softly placed it over his heart.

"I'm not going..." Scourge looked Manic in the eyes with such lust in them.

"...you can't stay here though. Alex doesn't really like you.." Manic said shyly

"I don't care. Either you come with me, or I stay." Manic thought for a while, but he really couldn't do that cause he was more baffled by Scourges proposal.

"I can't go..." Manic let his hand free from Scourge then turned to walk away. But Scourge wasn't going to leave.

"Guess I stay." He said as he walked to the couch.

"Don't be stubborn. Go home!" Manic's turned back around to face the stubborn hedgehog.

"Only if you come with." Scourge looked over to him

Manic felt his head go fuzzy, Scourge wasn't going to give up and he knew that. So he had no other choice.

"Alright. I'll go with you." Manic said with a smile

"Great. We can work on the song in the morning. Let's go~" Scourge and Manic walked out the door, but before they could Manic left a note saying he was going to stay at his brothers house. Scourge then picked Manic up and raced off to his home.
