I do not have the best news for the club. They are finding out solos but shit happened. We have new members but that is not the issue. The issue is we have a thing happening that should not be.
I finally walk into the room as they are congratulating our soloist. I smile as Kitty looks a little bashful. Shy and humble looks good on her. I am about to speak when Judy cuts me off.
"Now it is duets today!" Everyone cheers "We are expecting great things! Who is trying out?"
Sam and Blaine are up first and I sigh. We have worked on this Shelby! You are in control of your emotions! You are a strong mama bear!

Right from the start
You were a thief
You stole my heart
And I your willing victim
I let you see the parts of me
That weren't all that pretty
And with every touch you fixed them
Now you've been talking in your sleep, oh, oh
Things you never say to me, oh, oh
Tell me that you've had enough
Of our love, our love
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
We're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
I'm sorry I don't understand
Where all of this is coming from
I thought that we were fine
(Oh, we had everything)
Your head is running wild again
My dear we still have everythin'
And it's all in your mind
(Yeah, but this is happenin')
You've been havin' real bad dreams, oh, oh
You used to lie so close to me, oh, oh
There's nothing more than empty sheets
Between our love, our love
Oh, our love, our love
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
I never stopped
You're still written in the scars on my heart
You're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Oh, tear ducts and rust
I'll fix it for us
We're collecting dust
But our love's enough
You're holding it in
You're pouring a drink
No nothing is as bad as it seems
We'll come clean
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Just give me a reason
Just a little bit's enough
Just a second we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
It's in the stars
It's been written in the scars on our hearts
That we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, we can learn to love again
Oh, oh, that we're not broken just bent
And we can learn to love again
Everyone claps as they take their bows. Up next comes Unique and Marley. That is a very nice duo honestly. I think they could do great work together.

Okay, Coconut man, Moon Head and Pea
You ready?
Seems like everybody's got a price,
I wonder how they sleep at night
When the sale comes first
And the truth comes second.
Just stop for a minute and smile
Why is everybody so serious?
Acting so damn mysterious?
Got your shades on your eyes
And your heels so high
That you can't even have a good time
Everybody look to their left (yeah)
Everybody look to their right
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight?
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the (uh) ch-ch-ching ch-ching
Ain't about the (yeah) bl-bling-bl-bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag (OK)
We need to take it back in time,
When music made us all unite!
And it wasn't low blows and video hoes,
Am I the only one getting tired?
Why is everybody so obsessed?
Money can't buy us happiness
Can we all slow down and enjoy right now?
Guarantee we'll be feeling alright
Everybody look to their left (to their left)
Everybody look to their right (to their right)
Can you feel that (yeah)
We're paying with love tonight?
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
Ain't about the (uh) ch-ch-ching ch-ching
Ain't about the (yeah) bl-bling-bl-bling
Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag
Yeah, yeah
Well, keep the price tag
And take the cash back
Just give me six strings and a half stack
And you can, can keep the cars
Leave me the garage
And all I, yes, all I need
Are keys and guitars
And guess what? In 30 seconds
I'm leaving to Mars
Yeah, we leaping across
These undefeatable odds
It's like this, man
You can't put a price on a life
We do this for the love
So we fight and sacrifice
Every night
So we ain't gon' stumble and fall
Never
Waiting to see or send a sign of defeat
Uh uh
So we gonna keep everyone
Moving their feet
So bring back the beat
And then everyone sing
It's not about the money
It's not about the money, money, money
We don't need your money, money, money
We just wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag

Wanna make the world dance,
Forget about the price tag (OK)
That was honestly really good. I look to see if anyone else is going up. I am about to speak when sugar walks down with Cherry. I step back and let them do their tryout.
-Sugar-Cherry-Both-
Only you, you're the only thing I'll see forever
In my eyes, in my words and in everything I do
Nothing else but you
Ever
And there's nothing for me but Maria
Every sight that I see is Maria
Tony, Tony...
Always you, every thought I'll ever know
Everywhere I go, you'll be
All the world is only
You and me
Tonight, tonight
It all began tonight
I saw you and the world went away
Tonight, tonight
There's only you tonight
What you are, what you do, what you say
Today, all day I had the feeling
A miracle would happen
I know now I was right
For here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
The world is full of light
With suns and moons all over the place
Tonight, tonight
The world is wild and bright
Going mad, shooting sparks
Into space
Today the world was just an address
A place for me to live in
No better than all right
But here you are
And what was just a world is a star
Tonight
Good night, good night
Sleep well, and when you dream
Dream of me
Tonight
They take their bows as everyone claps. I wait and then step forward. All eyes are on me and I tense. I can do this. I can tell them the news.
"The date for nationals has changed" Everyone shares confused or worried looks "It has moved to a week from today!"
"That is the beginning of May" I nod and Rachel looks very worried "We have not even got our group number yet! We just have out the solo and we have no costumes!"
"I know" I sigh and look at everyone "I believe that we can do this though..we all have beaten the odds before right? Why not beat them again?"
"She is right" Blaine stands up smiling "We will not let you down teach"
The kids slowly stand up cheering. I smile as I feel their determination. Oh how it would feel to be that young again. I really do hope they win.
I won't tell them our club is also on the line.
