Summary: Sam, DJ, Caitie and David all entering their senior year of High School. How does it affect everyone knowing that after the next ten months fly by they'll probably never see each other again? **************************************************************************** *************** Talent Show -

Sam was so nervous, waiting for Shawn to arrive. They were on last because they were the last ones to sign up which means they were the last thing everybody heard before the results. They hadn't practiced the song with Sam singing yet so the guys didn't even know the words to the song, which Sam knew, made them nervous.

"You okay?" DJ asked, coming up behind her. There was a really horrible air band act by a few ninth graders on right now.

"No." Sam admitted. "I've never even let Paige hear any of my songs let alone nearly five hundred people."

"It'll be okay. I believe in you."

DJ didn't know that Sam had gained the power to read minds. (She had decided not to tell any of her friends because they might become distant from her knowing that at any time, she could invade their privacy.) So when Sam grimaced in pain and held her hands to her ears, he didn't know what was happening.

With Sam being as nervous as she was right then, she had temporarily lost her control. Once she finally regained it, she opened her eyes to find herself in DJ's arms.

"What happened?" She asked, standing up straight.

"You tell me." DJ told her, worried.

"I'm fine!" Sam nervously smiled at him and looked around. There was only three more acts until they were on and Shawn had just arrived. Sam let the guys have their alone time why she looked out onto the crowd. She saw Piper, Leo, Wyatt, David and Caitie were all sitting close together watching the acts. Before she knew it Mark and DJ were calling to her. They had to get set up. **************************************************************************** ***************

"All right everybody! Here is our last act of the night before the results are presented! Unlike the other acts tonight this band is singing their own original song! Featuring Baker's High own DJ Collins, Samantha Halliwell, Mark Arnold and Shawn Cariwn! I give you 'Electricity!'"

The audience politely applauded but Sam's family, Caitie and David all cheered as the four walked out onto stage. Sam was already carrying a Mic and the guys walked over to their equipment. They refused to use the school like the rest of the performances because they were out of tune, old and crappy.

The guys started the first riff of the song as Sam gently moved to the beat. The first was bit was a slow beat, the chorus sped up but only the chorus was faster. Afterwards it slowed back down. It was almost time for Sam to sing and at that moment something Piper had told her earlier came true. "Once you're up on the stage and that music start, you won't care about anything but singing like you do and making your words known."

A feeling fills her Pain won't chill her

Darkness is her home

When her tears fall

She builds a wall

No weakness ever shown.

He looks at her; he doesn't see

Those tears inside her eyes

And all those times he always thought

She carried herself with pride

I know that you can't love her

And I know it makes me mad

And if these are the holidays

Why do I feel so bad?

Another month

Another hell

The flavor of the week

And when the boredom

Gathers in

His heart will start to seek

Two tears falling

Two hearts crawling

And left before his wake

Instead of pity

Instead of guilt

He acts as if they're fake

I'll always miss those memories

Of days that we once had

So if these are the holidays

Why do I feel so bad?

Its hard to just stay friends

When you don't know how to act

Do you remember all those times we spent together?

Back then, inside your bright green eyes

Instead of love, I felt your lies

Somehow I never thought of the end of forever

Clinging to a memory

Of who you used to be

Somehow I fell in love

With the ass you were to me

Never for a moment

Did I think things were okay

So, hey, these are the holidays

I feel like shit today.. **************************************************************************** *************** A/N: All the credits for the song you just read go to my very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very very (a thousand more very's) nice friend Christine(Crissi) Cochrane! I thank her so much for letting me use her song/poem!! She'll never read this but a million thank-you's Crissi!

A little history on Holiday's -

Crissi wrote this poem before our eighth grade Christmas break and some of us skipped out of the class parties and we were hiding down by our cafeteria when she showed it to us. We all ended up telling her that it was awesome and that it would be an awesome song!

This year in ninth grade her and two guys that she's friends with.(The rest of us are only kinda friends with them.) She did vocals and acoustic guitar, another guy did acoustic guitar and another did bass. They named themselves 'Flooding London.'

They changed some minor stuff around on the song but this(above) is the original poem. By itself the poem is already awesome and very truthful but I wish you guys could also hear the really amazing song they made it into and Crissi's voice is really incredible.

The band is broken up now. :(
