"God, interruptions, interruptions." Drake said
Amanda laughed, she missed his sense of humor, she missed him in general.
"Can I help you?" Drake said sarcastically, as he opened the door
"What up brotha?" Josh said, in his usual tone.
"Nothing, getting ready for the club opening
"Hey, Mandy, looking fine." Josh said
"Thanks, Joshie you not lookin' too bad yourself," Amanda said
"Hey, quit the flirting with the wife, huh."
"Sorry. But she looks really smokin' in that dress."
"Change," Drake said
"No, no one's going to look at me, don't worry."
"O.K."
"And if they do, you have my permission to punch them out. Except Josh," Amanda said
"Deal,"
Amanda and Drake laughed, then they kissed.
"Uh, get a room," Josh said
"We would but we have to leave in like five minutes," Drake said, putting his arm around Amanda
"Five minutes is long enough," Josh said
"Not for us," Amanda said
"O.K. this has officially crossed the T.M.I. line!" Josh said covering his ears.
Drake and Amanda rolled their eyes, and shook their heads, "Josh," they said together
They finally convinced Josh to uncover his ears when they were all in the limo. When he finally agreed, Drake couldn't resist but say, "You know, it's usually 15 or 20 minutes,"
"Awh! That's just wrong, you two give me headaches. Headaches!" Josh said, re-covering his ears.
Amanda and Drake had never laughed so hard, Josh never failed to say something hilarious.
They drove for about 20 minutes, before they reached the club. It was called "Nichols Place", Josh and Drake laughed at the insane originality that went into naming it.
"I'm kind of nervous," Amanda said,
"A, you've performed like a billion times before, right?"
"Well, yeah, but this is in front of your family, and I don't know, what if I mess the entire thing up, and your dad hates me?"
"Amanda, nothing you could ever do would make anyone hate you, that and I love you, so my dad does also. And my mom,"
"Well, that's good to know," Amanda said
Drake smiled at Amanda, then Josh turned the other way, and said, "Oh for the love of ham, just kiss her."
They laughed again, then they kissed, just as they pulled up to the front of the club.
"Here we are," Josh said, leaping out of the limo.
Drake jumped out, and held out his hand, and Amanda took it, and stepped out.
"Drakie, Joshie, Mandy!" Drake and Josh's dad said
"Hey, fatha!" Josh said, hugging him
"Hey, dad." Drake said, also hugging him
"Hi, Mr. Nichols," Amanda said, holding out her hand
"Oh, don't be so formal, Mandy, call me dad, everyone else does." he said, hugging her
"O.K., Dad." she said
"That's more like it, so what song are you and Drakie singing?"
"I'm a soooooooooooullll may-an-nuhhhhh!" Josh said
"In English, that's 'Soul man'." Amanda said
"Oh, great song. And you and Drake have slammin' voices, it'll be great."
"Thanks, we hope so."
Amanda, Drake, Josh, and Mr. Nichols all linked arms, then they walked into the club.
Mr. Nichols told Amanda and Drake to set up their guitars and amps, on the stage, while he told the crowd about them.
"Please give a warm welcome to the man and wife of the hour, Amanda and Drake Parker!" Mr. N. said, as the curtain was drawn.
Drake began strumming on his guitar, and started singing: Drake: Comin' to you on a dusty road. Good lovin', I got a truckload.
And when ya get it, ha.
You got somethin'
So don't worry,
'cause I'm comin'
Drake and Amanda: I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man
Amanda: Got what I got the hard way
And I'll make it better
Each and every day
So honey don't you fret
'Cause you ain't seen nothing yet
Drake and Amanda: I'm a soul man
I'm a soul man

Drake: Grab the rope
And I'll pull you in

Amanda: I'm talkin' about a soul man
Drake: I'm a soul man
Amanda: And you soul man
Drake: Ah soul man
Amanda: Oh lord soul man
Drake: I'm a soul man
Amanda: And you soul man
When they finished, the crowd roared. It was such a great performance, that the entire club was clapping, and cheering.
Mr. N. was so happy that they got a standing ovation, he was clapping, when all of a sudden, he felt shooting pains up and down his left arm, then his chest began to hurt. In a matter of seconds, he collapsed on the ground of a heart attack.
A/N: Bet no one saw that one coming! Truth be told, neither did I. LOL Next chapter up soon!
