Nana: Hi Hi Everyone! I'm going to make this short but please please choose a story on my list. It would really help me because I want to do all of them and I'm thinking of so many new ideas that I'm in desperate need of help. Like I said, A Silver Lining will be out March 18, which I am already writing the 1st chapter of it. It's kind of a short story so I'm thinking it would be about 4, 5 or 6 chapters.
May: I'll do the disclaimer: nanaaboualaiwa does not own Pokémon or the songs in the fanfiction.
Update on Corona: Hey guys, so my state is at 38 cases with 21 of them in my county. As the time of writing this school has been cancelled until April 13, I want all of you to please be safe, wash your hands, don't touch your face and do everything that we have been told to do to keep safe. Thank you, all my fans!
Previously on Sing For Me….
"If I could be the new manager for The Miracles."
"I was surprised to hear it and I'm pretty sure I had the same face as all of you right now." Solidad said while she saw everyone shocked except Danny and Sophie.
"Sol hasn't said her answer yet so that's why she is here. Either way if she says no, she is still staying for a bit to catch up and see how you guys are doing." Sophie explained.
"I've made my decision, and I decide…."
Chapter 17-Songs
No one's POV
"I've decided to be the new manager for The Miracles." Solidad said with a smile.
May brought her hands to her mouth and started crying, Drew soothed her with a hug.
Dawn jumped up and started making lots of happy noises.
Leaf was happy and went up to try and calm down Dawn. Serena looked like she was going to faint, and she had a bright smile on her face.
Marina looked happy for her friends and gave Solidad a wink which meant as 'Good Luck!'
The boys looked like they lost a competition, they knew that Solidad was amazing at singing and knew what was best, so this put them at a really bad disadvantage.
"What does this mean for Sophie?" Leaf asked sadly.
Sophie gave a small sad smile and said, "Unfortunately, this means that I am leaving today."
The girls started tearing up and went to hug Sophie, they mumbled sweet things to her, and Sophie hugged them back and started tearing up as well.
Sophie took off her glasses and wiped her tears, she whispered to the girls, "You are the best band I have ever managed, show the world what a miracle you girls are all about."
"I have to go now." Sophie also whispered, she gave one last tight hug and she and Danny left for the airport where Sophie was going to live down South in Unova where her family lived.
Gary went up to Leaf comforting her, she cried on his shoulder while he gave a kiss to her temple.
Serena and Ash hugged each other which ended up them blushing and having small goofy smiles.
Paul surprisingly gave a small side hug to Dawn, which caused Dawn to blush and have a small smile.
May was immediately hugged by Drew as he whispered, "I know it hurts, it will be all fine." His breath tickled May's ear, she could feel her neck heating up.
It's so nice being with Drew, I feel safe in his arms, I think I really do…
May thought as her thoughts were cut off when Drew let go of her.
"Now then, how about you tell me all about the songs you have planned for your concert." Solidad said comfortingly.
May's POV
We all headed downstairs towards the recording studio and our music room with all of our instruments.
It was basically a rehearsal with a small audience being the guys, Marina and Solidad. Solidad was to give us pointers and tips, Marina was excited to hear our songs, Jimmy was here so he could come up with ideas for our music videos, Drew was there so we can practice singing our songs, and the rest of the guys decided to tag along, I guess because they want to see them.
I really wished Brendan was here, it does seem like he has been avoiding and I guess I've been having this bad feeling that something is going to happen. I should text him!
May/Brendan Texts
May- hey, wat r u doin rn?
Brendan, AKA my everything 3- about to board the plane to Sinnoh, missing you a whole lot :'(
May- aw, i'm missing u 2! will u be able 2 come 2 my concert?
Brendan- To be honest, I don't know. The DJ session is Sinnoh is really important 2 me, but I will try to make it. Oh I gtg, the plane will start flying. I love you
May- oh…ily too 3
I looked up from my phone and sighed. Brendan's career is important to him but so is me. I just hope that we won't fight over this.
"May, are you okay?" Drew asked me with a concerned look. Oh, he looks too cute!
"I-I'm fine, just a bit nervous about singing." I lied.
Drew looked at me suspiciously and shrugged. "You'll be fine; besides, you'll be with me, and I'll make sure you won't fail." He said smugly.
"Arrogant Grasshead" I said and smacked him playfully.
"Okay, order goes Dawn, Leaf, Me, May, Leaf, May/Dawn duet, Group Song 1, Group Song 2, and May and Drew can do their duets" Serena said while facing all of us.
"Got it!" Me, Leaf, and Dawn yelled.
We entered the room with all of our instruments. There was two grand pianos, one black and one white, since we choose which color piano we what depending on the song, a black guitar with red roses on it (Mine!), a pink guitar with gold designs on it (Dawn's), and a mint green one with a black heart in the corner, (Leaf's.) There was also three basses, one was a sapphire blue, one was a magenta, and the last one was a forest green. We had also had a white keytar which was for Serena, a drum set with Miracles written in gold cursive on the big drum, and a keyboard which was a light blue.
There were beanie chairs, and swivel chairs sitting in front of the instruments like a mini audience.
I went straight for the red beanie chair, Leaf went to the forest green one, Dawn sat at the pink one. The rest of them sat of the different multi-color swivel chairs we had while Serena stood up front coming up with instructions.
No one's POV
"D'accord!" Serena yelled, (Okay!). "Dawn what color piano have you decided?" Serena asked.
"White, and will May be playing bass?" Dawn asked.
"Yes, so, May you will need to come up here I have music for you." Serena said as May came up and then she remembered something and ran upstairs.
"Uh..is something wrong?" Solidad asked.
"Oh my god, we are still in our pajamas!" Serena said as she ran up to change, as the same with Dawn, Marina and Leaf.
After about 10 minutes, May came down wearing a loose red top with short black shorts and wearing her red bandanna. Dawn was wearing a pink skirt that went mid-thigh, with a white top that had 'Princess' written in a pink on there, her hair was in a braid. Leaf wore a forest green tank top with white shorts, she left her hair out. Serena wore a red skirt that was almost knee length, black stockings that went up to her knees, and a sleeveless black top with a white collar. (Her outfit in the anime, just without the hat), and her hair was up in a ponytail with pieces of hair framing her face. Marina wore light blue jean shorts with a yellow pastel crop top, her hair was in their usual pigtails.
"Alright let's begin, with Dawn singing her new song: Lose You to Love Me, with Serena playing the piano and May playing the bass, with me and May accompanying Dawn with singing." Leaf said as she went to May, with Serena sitting at the piano, May next to her playing the bass and Dawn standing next to the piano.
Dawn took a breath, she looked at Serena and May giving them the look of starting the song.
"You promised the world and I fell for it, I put you first and you adored it. Set fires to my forest. And you let it burn. Sang off key in my chorus. Cause it wasn't yours."
"I saw the signs and I ignored it. Rose colored glasses all distorted. Set fire to my purpose. And I let it burn. You got off on the hurting. When it wasn't yours, yeah."
Dawn continued with singing the chorus, Leaf and May got ready to sing the harmony. Dawn moved her hand along the piano and started to sing again.
"We'd always go into it blindly. I needed to lose you to find me. This dance, it was killing me softly. I needed to hate you to love me, yeah"
"To love, love, yeah. To love, love, yeah. To love, yeah." May and Leaf sang.
"I needed to lose you to love me, yeah" Dawn sang.
They repeated and Dawn sang to the next verse while Serena was playing the piano beautifully.
"I gave my all and they all know it. Then you tore me down and now it's showing. In two months, you replaced us. Like it was easy"
"Made me think I deserved it. In the thick of healing, yeah"
They sang the chorus again. Marina was looking at them in awe, Jimmy was busy scribbling down notes, the lyrics of the song so he could come up with ideas for the music video. Drew and Gary looked at each other impressed with the girls. Paul was gaping at Dawn's almost angelic voice, while Ash was gaping at how swiftly Serena's fingers were moving across the piano.
Dawn sang the first verse again, and they entered the chorus again.
"I needed to lose you to love me" "To love, love, yeah. To love, love, yeah. To love, yeah"
"And now the chapter is closed and done"
"To love, love, yeah. To love, love, yeah. To love, yeah."
"And now it's goodbye, it's goodbye for us" Dawn finished. Serena ended the song with the piano.
"Oh wow, that was amazing!" Marina said while standing up.
"And I have a good idea for the music video!" Jimmy said, he gave his notes to Dawn and she lit up in excitement. "It sounds great, I can't wait!"
"And I think two guys are excited about this song as well." Leaf said teasingly and they all turned towards Paul who was slightly blushing, and Ash's face was still gaping.
"I-I l-liked i-it." Paul mumbled loud enough for everyone to hear.
"That was really good, I really liked your piano playing Serena!" Ash broke off from his gaping face into one filled with excitement.
"Do you guys have anything to say?" May asked Solidad, Drew and Gary.
"I think it was good, just practice staying in sync with the piano." Drew said while ficking his hair.
"I agree with Drew." Gary said.
"It was written really well, who wrote it?" Solidad asked.
"Serena helped me write the lyrics." Dawn said while Serena blushed.
"You could put more emotion in singing, I think that will be really good." Solidad said.
"I'll do that!" Dawn said.
"Now then, Leaf is going to sing her song, Look At her Now, with the track already recorded." Serena said.
"Oh and Jimmy, I already have an idea for the music video." Leaf said, she gave Jimmy a piece of paper with the idea written on it.
"Alright!"
(Author's Note: I'm not going to write out the song cause that would make it really long, and besides you guys have already saw it on the story. Also, these two songs are both sang by Selena Gomez, go listen to them cause they are amazing!)
Leaf finished singing, she looked at her mini audience which was impressed. May had already listened to her singing, Dawn, Serena, and Marina looked excited. Jimmy gave her a wink which meant that the music video idea was good. Gary looked happy, Drew and Paul were indifferent as usual, and Ash gave her a thumbs up.
"I really like that song! Great work Leaf." Solidad said with a smile and Leaf had a bright smile on her.
"Now, it's time for our very one Serena, to sing her very first song she wrote." Leaf said.
Nana: And that means that the next chapter will have some amourshipping! And because of the situation we are in, A Silver Lining will have to debut tomorrow.
