CHAPTER 14 The Concert
The crowd chanted and cheered as one of Kira's acts performed. Rather than having three or four bands perform right before her, she decided to perform so many songs at once than taking a little break while letting one of the acts perform.
"Kira!" came a voice. Kira brought her water bottle down from her lips and turned to the sound of the voice. She smiled when she saw Leila, Kim, and Tori come running up to her with Backstage Passes hanging around their necks.
"Hey," Kira said happily.
"You are doing great!" Kim said excitedly.
"Where's everyone else?" Kira asked.
"In the front row, you can only see so many of them from here though," Tori said before going to the edge of the wings and pointing to the front row. Sure enough, Shane, Dustin, and Cam were in the front row and to Kira's surprise, so were Jason and Katherine, along with Devin, Conner, Ethan, and Hayley. All of them saw the girls peeking out and waved. The girls waved back and Kira turned back into the main backstage section.
"That's our cue, man," Shane said to Dustin and Cam.
"Good luck guys," Katherine said. Dustin, Shane, and Cam got out of their seats and made their way backstage. Conner, Ethan, and Devin were close behind. The act finished playing and made their way off stage.
"Here I go," Kira said as she walked back onstage. Leila, Tori, and Kim waited a few moments before moving into position.
"And here we go," Leila said. Leila and Tori went on stage while Kim waved to someone in the back. Tommy, Hunter, Blake, Cam, Shane, and Dustin came running up to Kim.
"Is Trent in place?" Hunter asked.
"You know it," Kim said before running after Tori and Leila. In the few moments that had passed, the lights had dimmed and the spotlight was on Kira as she approached the microphone that was front in center.
"Hey...," she started to say before Tori and Leila interrupted her.
"Hey guys, are you having a good time?" Tori said as she scooted Kira aside. The crowd erupted in cheers. Kira looked at both of them as Kim came up and led her to a chair that some stage hands brought out.
"What are you doing?" she asked, completely dumbfounded.
"Just watch," Kim said as she sat Kira down. She and Tori stood at either side of the chair as Leila took over the mike.
"We know you're wondering what is going on but don't worry, Kira's in the same boat. As most of you know, Kira is engaged and the wedding will be taking place soon. Before that took place, my brother, her fiancé, wanted to give her a little surprise. So, Kira, this is for you from Trent and all of us," Leila said. The spotlight dimmed and came back up near Kira. She gasped when she heard a familiar melody play. A platform began to rise up and she saw a grand piano appear. The platform began to rotate and Kira was shocked when she saw Trent playing the song. He looked over at her with more love in his eyes than he could ever hold.
More instruments started to play and Kira looked behind her to see Cam at the guitar, Shane at a keyboard, Dustin with a sax, Blake at the drums, Tommy, Devin, Conner, and Ethan with the orchestra, and Hunter on a bass guitar. Kim has an electric acoustic guitar and Leila and Tori were at backup singer mikes.
"Dude, when did you learn to play classical stuff?" Ethan asked of Conner.
"My mom made me take it up in middle school," Conner said. Devin and Tommy snickered. Kira looked over to Trent, still exasperated over what was going on. He smiled at her and mouthed 'I Love you' to her. She mouthed it back as Trent inched to the microphone.
"I will never find another lover sweeter than you, sweeter than you.
And I will never find another lover more precious than you, more precious than you
Girl you are close to me you're like my mother,
Close to me you're like my father,
Close to me you're like my sister,
Close to me you're like my brother,
You are the only one my everything and for you this song I sing
And all my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too
I said you're all that I'm thinking of...baby
Kira did not know what to think. She never knew Trent could sing so well and all of their friends were adding to the song beautifully. Tears of happiness and joy fell from her eyes as she looked over into Trent's eyes. She smirked when she saw a glistening of a small tear falling from his eye too. They had been to hell and back when they broke the spell on him as the evil white ranger, the entire fight with Mesagog, then Bronchonaut, and finally dealing with the record company fiasco. Now, with the support of their friends who had been there the whole time for them, they could be together in peace and love.
Said, I promise to never fall in love with a stranger
You're all I'm thinking of, I praise the Lord above,
For sending me your love, I cherish every hug,
I really love you..........
Trent put his heart and soul into that note and Kira smiled in pure surprise. The crowd erupted in surprise.
And all my life, baby, baby, I've prayed for someone like you,
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you, baby
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do, love me
You're all that I ever known, when you smile, on my face, all I see is a glow
You turned my life around, you picked me up when I was down,
You're all that I ever known, when you smile on your face all I see is a glow,
You picked me up when I was down
You're all that I ever known, when you smile on your face all I see is a glow,
You picked me up when I was down and I hope that you feel the same way too,
Yes I pray that you do love me too
All my life, I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
Yes, I pray that you do love me too
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
Yes, I pray that you do love me too...................................
Trent finished singing and he and the others finished playing the ending melody. Tears in her eyes, Kira stood up and started clapping. The audience joined in. Trent jumped down from the platform and scooped Kira into a passionate kiss, not caring that it was in front of millions of people. The others clapped and watched those two with smiles on their faces. Kira and Trent deserved to be happy and they would soon have their dreams come true.
Hope it wasn't too sappy for you. That's what Trent was planning all along. Look forward to Chapter 15: I Do! (Can you guess what's going to happen in this chapter?!)
