Chapter 9: Mermaids, Phantoms, Karaoke O My!

After weeks of planning it was finally the night of the Halloween Dance. The Theater Club managed

to book an awesome teen club downtown. Students poured in wearing all sorts of scary and

sparkly costumes. Some of those who volunteered sat at a table in the lobby collecting the required

5 dollar admittance fee. Will walked in wearing a beautiful flowing gown. It looked like Belle's

gown from the movie Beauty and the Beast only it was a mother of pearl color instead yellow. "Hey

Will," one of the girls from the fall play smiled as Will gave her the $5. "What are you supposed to

be?" "I'm not sure. Kira saw this and told me I should get it," Will replied. "Well you look great in

it," the girl smile and she stamped Will's hand.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hey Will over here!" Irma yelled. Will walked over to where Kira, Irma, Taranee, and Hay Lin

were standing. Kira was wearing an Egyptian costume, Hay Lin was dressed like a Chinese bride,

Irma was wearing a Flamenco dancer costume, and Taranee came to the dance as Beyonce

Knowles. "Great costumes," Will said, "Where's Caleb?" Then she felt someone behind her put

their hand on her shoulder and he whispered into her ear, "Behind you," Will turned around to see

Caleb as the Phantom of the Opera. Caleb smiled, "What do you think," he asked. "You look

great," Will smiled. "CALEB!" the girls and Caleb turned around to see Cornelia dressed in a Little

Mermaid costume hopping over to them frantically. "Caleb why are you dressed like that. I thought

you were gonna be Prince Eric," Cornelia whined. "What do you mean?" Caleb asked. "Last night I

called you to ask what you were going to the dance as and you said Prince Eric so I decided to

come as Ariel so we'd match," Corny explained. "I think you misunderstood him," Kira said. "He

said he was going as Erik. E-R-I-K. That's the Phantom of the Opera's real name. You must have

thought he meant Prince Eric but he meant the Phantom Erik." Cornelia frowned. "Well that's not so

bad because Caleb can sing me a song," Corny said. "I have a better idea," Caleb said. "I'll sing

during the Karaoke Hour," "Fine," Cornelia pouted. She hopped away. When Corny was out of

site Caleb grabbed Will's hand an led her outside on a balcony area that was attached to the club.

"What?" Will asked. "I just wanted to spend some private time with you away from all that noise,"

Caleb said. He kissed her hand, "Tonight you'll be my Christine," he said, "Just promise not to run

off with some guy named Raoul," "I promise," Will whispered. Caleb went behind Will and

wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. "Caleb could just sing for

me just for a little bit?" Will asked. Caleb hugged her waist tighter and whispered his song into her

ear

Softly, gently, music shall caress you.
Hear it, feel it, secretly posess you.
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight..
The darkness of the music of the night.

"Thank you," Will smiled and she closed her eyes enjoying the warmth she was receiving from being

in Caleb's arms. Hay Lin saw them together and she smiled. She wondered why it too so long for

Caleb and Will to get together. When the guardians first started out and they went to save Will from

Meridian on picture day because Phobos kidnapped her Hay Lin thought there was something

between Will and Caleb. When he volunteered to go back and distract Cedric he gave her this look

that would melt any girl's heart. Hay Lin thought it had melted Will's heart because when Hay Lin

said she'd go back for Caleb Will hugged her. But then Matt came along and Will had a crush on

him so Hay Lin thought she was wrong about Caleb and Will. Unfortunately Hay Lin wasn't the

only one who saw Will and Caleb together. Matt saw them too and he clenched his fist. "This won't

do at all," he muttered under his breath.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As Kira went to get some soda she bumped into a boy in a Zorro costume. "Sorry Derek," she

apologized. "How did you know it was me?" Derek asked, "I'm wearing a mask," "How could I

not recognize those piercing cerulean blue eyes of yours," Kira smiled. Derek smirked, "Wanna

dance?" he asked. "Sure," Kira replied and he lead her out to the dance floor. After their dance the

DJ announced that it was time for Karaoke. First up was Caleb. He walked up on stage and picked

up the mike as the song started

Hands Down by Dashboard Confessional

Breathe in for luck, breathe in so deep
This air is blessed, you share with me
This night is wild, so calm and dull
These hearts they race from self-control
Your legs are smooth as they graze mine
We're doing fine, we're doing nothing at all.

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery
Which ever you prefer

Kira ,Irma, Hay Lin, and Will knew the song was meant for Will.

The words are hushed lets not get busted,
just lay entwined here undiscovered.
Safe in here from all the stupid questions..
"hey did you get some?"
Man, that is so dumb.
Stay quiet, stay near, stay close
they can't hear, so we can get some.

My hopes are so high that your kiss might kill me
So won't you kill me, so I die happy
My heart is yours to fill or burst
to break or bury, or wear as jewelery
Which ever you prefer

Then Kira saw Matt walk up to the board and write his name down as well as the song "This I

Promise You" "I'll be right back," Kira said and she headed to the DJ room where a girl named

Christina was working the Karaoke machine. "Why do you let me do that for a while," Kira

offered. "Thanks," Christina said and she and Kira switched places.

Hands down this is the best date I can ever remember
I'll always remember the sound of the stereo
The dim of the soft lights, the scent of your hair
That you twirled in your fingers
And the time on the clock when we realized it was so late
And this walk that we shared together
The streets were wet and the gate was locked
So I jumped it and let you in
And you stood at your door with your hands on my waist
And you kissed me like you meant it
And I knew, that you meant it
That you meant it, that you meant it
And I knew that you meant it, that you meant it

Now it was Matt's turn. He picked up the mike an began to sing. Every few minutes Kira put a

mike next to the speakers in the room so that they'd make that annoying screeching noise in Matt's

ear. Matt scrunched his face with anger as he tried to sing. Then when he was about to go into a

bridge Kira turned up the volume so it practically blowing out his ear drum. Luckily no one else was

effected. Matt stomped off stage and he didn't even finish his song. A girl named Molly took over at

Karaoke and Kira went to go rejoin her friends. Matt stomped over to Kira, "This isn't over s-

Kira!" he growled and he stomped away. "Did just say s-Kira?" Kira asked Hay Lin. "I her him say

Kira not s-Kira," Hay Lin said. "Ok guess I was just hearing things," Kira sighed but she wondered

what Matt meant by he this isn't over.

Hope you liked that. I also hopeyou were happy when Kira ruined Matt's perfromance. Wasn't that so sweet that Caleb sang that song specifically for Will. He can be so romantic when he wants to be. here's a riddle for you guys to solve while you wait for me to update

What is something that's intangible. Its hard to earn and easy to lose but once you lose it its hard to get it back.

Post you're answers in you reviews and those who get it right get the next chappie dedicated to them.
