A/N:

Disclaimer: I had a dream last night that Harry Potter and his friends belonged to me. Sadly I woke up this morning with nothing but a purple, pink and silver bedroom, a pink mobile phone, loads of clothes, all of theFriends episodes on VHS and the Harry Potter books and DVD's so I took that as a there is no way on this earth that I own them!

Summary: Harry has defeated Voldemort and he leaves the wizarding world after graduating because all is not well there. He returns after a year and discovers that his life has changed dramatically. Theres a new enemy but who is it? There's also romance in his life and he has to learn to live with the fame and fortune that he has gained since leaving Hogwarts. How will Harry deal with all this and his best friends upcoming wedding all at the same time. Harry learns that One night REALLY can change everything in a persons life.

Thanks for all the reviews and the next update will be on saturday!

Chapter 38 - The Talent Show

The next few weeks were spent revising for any exams and practising for the talent show.
Nick's performance was kept a secret between him, Peyton and Dan.
Ellie had asked Dan to help her with a song that she was going to sing to show Harry how much he meant to her.
Ellie, Peyton and Cady had been caught practising by Professor McGonagall who had persuaded them to sing a collection of songs to keep the audience amused while the judges were making the decision of who should win and the positive atmosphere kept the school buzzing till the day came.

Finally the day came and everyone taking part was on a high and feeling extremely nervous, the most nervous person though was Nick as he was hoping that his performance was going to help him win Ellie back.
Peyton kept reassuring him but he still felt nervous.
The Quidditch commentator Hannah Blake was going to present the show and all the teachers, parents who had come to see it and students who hadn't gone home were to be sitting where the house tables normally were in the Great Hall.
McGonagall had transfigured (with the help of Ginny) the staff table into a stage and there were fairy lights ad flashing lights near the stage - the floating candles had been extinguished for this show.
Even Dumbledore had come to watch.

At eight pm Hannah Blake took to the stage.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to Hogwarts' Talent Show. I will be your host this evening as we celebrate the talents of some of the students. All of the students taking part have been asked to demonstrate Muggle talents for us this evening, so naturally they have all decided to sing. The students will come on stage and show us their talent then they shall go and join the audience, when all of the students have been on, the judges - Professor McGonagall, Professor Flitwick and Madam Rosmerta will decide who wins. All we ask of you is to enjoy yourselves tonight so without further ado let's start the show. Our first act is seventh year Nicole MacMillon from Hufflepuff singing Have You Ever by Muggle pop band S Club 7."
Hannah Blake walked off the stage as a tall girl dressed in blue jeans and a black halter neck top walked on.
She stood in the middle of the stage and smiled at the audience before starting to sing.
"Sometimes it's wrong to walk away, though you think it's over,
Knowing there's so much more to say,
Suddenly the moment's gone,
And all your dreams are upside down,
And you just wanna change the way the world goes round,

Tell me, have you ever loved and lost somebody,
Wished there was a chance to say I'm sorry,
Can't you see, that's the way I feel about you and me, Baby,
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking,
Lookin down the road you should be taking,
I should know, coz I loved and lost the day I let you go,

Can't help but think that this is wrong, we should be together,
Back in your arms where I belong,
Now I've finally realised it was forever that I've found,
I'd give it all to change the way the world goes round,

Tell me, have you ever loved and lost somebody,
Wished there was a chance to say I'm sorry,
Can't you see, that's the way I feel about you and me, Baby,
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking,
Lookin down the road you should be taking,
I should know, coz I loved and lost the day I let you go,

I really wanna hear you say that you know just how it feels,
To have it all and let it slip away, can't you see,
Even though the moment's gone, I'm still holding on somehow,
Wishing I could change the way the world goes round,

Tell me, have you ever loved and lost somebody,
Wished there was a chance to say I'm sorry (I'm sorry),
Can't you see, (ohhh) that's the way I feel about you and me, Baby,
Have you ever felt your heart was breaking,
Lookin down the road you should be taking,
I should know, (I should know) coz I loved and lost the day I let,
Yes I loved and lost the day I let,
Yes I loved and lost the day I let you go."

The audience applauded and Nicole bowed.
As she walked off Hannah walked back onto the stage.
"Thank you for that lovely performance Nicole. A hard act to follow I'll say. Now next up we have second year Megan Weasley from Ravenclaw singing Stop Living the Lie by David Sneddon."
Hannah walked back off the stage as Megan walked on wearing black jeans and a pink gypsy top.

"I though Matilda Malfoy was singing?" Peyton asked Hannah as she went backstage.
"Nah, she dropped out. Something about wanting to watch Junior Pothead embarassing herself."
"She's so stupid, just coz her Dad and my Dad hated each other in school and coz her Grandad was a Death Eater she thinks she's got one over on us. Well I'll show her."
They looked back at Megan and watched as she started to sing.
"He sits alone at a table in a small cafe,
Drowning his tears in a bottomless cup of coffee,
And he's tumbling into his thoughts,
His memories are all tied in knots,
And who is going to save him,
No one wants to know him,

She stands alone in a place where no one knows her name,
She catches them staring they turn round and vanish the frame,
And she's nursing her head and her pride,
She died long ago deep down inside,
And who is going to save her,
No one wants to know her,

I can't believe that you'd pull on a sleeve when you cry,
You stick in the knife then give the kiss of life,
Live the lie,
And we all have a saviour,
So do yourself a favour,
Stop livin' the lie,

He sits alone and looks up to the eyes of an angel,
She catches him staring and smiles the smile of an angel,
And she asks him if this chair is free,
He said yes will you sit here with me,
No one would have saved him,
We should all learn from them,

I can't believe that you'd pull on a sleeve when you cry,
You stick in the knife then give the kiss of life,
Live the lie,
And we all have a saviour,
So do yourself a favour,
Stop livin' the lie,

Lie... Lie... Stop livin' the lie"

The audience applauded again and Bill and Fleur were beaming at their daughter while Keeley, Brooke and Georgia were laughing at their cousin and Zoe was laughing at her sister.
"Thank you Megan. Our next performance is sixth year Ravenclaw Marisa Weasley singing Unwritten by Natasha Bedingfield."
Once again Hannah walked off as Marisa walked on wearing a denim skirt with a blue vest top.
Backstage Peyton was consoling Nick who was up next.
" I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined,


I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned,


Staring at the blank page before you,


Open up the dirty window,


Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find,


Reaching for something in the distance,


So close you can almost taste it,


Release your innovations,


Feel the rain on your skin,


No one else can feel it for you,


Only you can let it in,


No one else, no one else,


Can speak the words on your lips,


Drench yourself in words unspoken,


Live your life with arms wide open,


Today is where your book begins,


The rest is still unwritten,


Oh, oh, oh,


I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines,


We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way,


Staring at the blank page before you,


Open up the dirty window,


Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find,


Reaching for something in the distance,


So close you can almost taste it,


Release your inner visions,


Feel the rain on your skin,


No one else can feel it for you,


Only you can let it in,


No one else, no one else,


Can speak the words on your lips,


Drench yourself in words unspoken,


Live your life with arms wide open,


Today is where your book begins,


Feel the rain on your skin,


No one else can feel it for you,

Oh, yeah, yeah,
"

The audience applauded and Marisa could hear her brother Matthew laughing and her father - Charlie shouting "THAT'S MY GIRL!"
"Thank you Marisa, that was an interesting song. Next up we have seventh year Gryffindor Quidditch Captain Nick Thomas singing Stay another day by East 17 - a Muggle boy band. He has dedicated this song to his ex girlfriend Elle-Louise Weasley. He will then sing another song called Lies by Muggle Singer Gareth Gates."
Nick walked on stage wearing a black shirt with beige jeans and took his place.
Ellie was stood watching with Peyton backstage.
"Stay now,
Baby if you've got to go away,
Don't think I could take the blame,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now),
Oh don't leave me alone like this,
Don't you say it's the final kiss,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now),

Don't you know we've come too far now,
Just to go and try to throw it all away,
Though I heard you say you love me,
That your love was gonna be here to stay,
I've only just begun to know you,
All I can say is won't you stay just one more day,

Stay now,
Baby if you've got to go away,
Don't think I could take the blame,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),
Oh don't leave me alone like this,
Don't you say it's the final kiss,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),

I touch your face while you are sleeping,
And hold your hand don't understand what's going on,
Good times we had return to haunt me,
Though it's for you, and all I do seems to be wrong,

Stay now,
Baby if you've got to go away,
Don't think I could take the blame,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),
Oh don't leave me alone like this,
Don't you say it's the final kiss,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),

Stay now,
Baby if you've got to go away,
Don't think I could take the blame,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),
Oh don't leave me alone like this,
Don't you say it's the final kiss,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),

Stay now,
Baby if you've got to go away,
Don't think I could take the blame,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now),
Oh don't leave me alone like this,
Don't you say it's the final kiss,
Won't you stay another day,
(Stay now, stay now)"

Nick bowed as the audience applauded and Ellie was in tears.
Nick looked towards the wings and saw Ellie.
He mouthed something to her then looked back at the audience and started to sing his second song.
"I waited in the summer rain,

I waited till my tears stop falling,

You never came along,

You had to do me wrong, again,

You promised me, you gave your words,

This time I'm around with your defect,

My heart has had enough,

I'm really not that tough inside,

Baby,

Lies,

You hide behind your lies,

Come look into my eyes,

Can't break my heart with honesty instead,

Coz I don't wanna cry,

I'd rather say goodbye,

Bye, bye,

I can't take another lie,

They told me not to trust in you,

And finally I do believe this,

Say who's the other man,

You do the best you can,

To hide,

Tell me,

Does he think you're are as beautiful as I did,

The very first time, I laid my eyes on you,

I gave my heart to you,

Again and again and again, baby,

Lies,

You hide behind your lies,

Come look into my eyes,

Can't break my heart with honesty instead,

Coz I don't wanna cry,

I'd rather say goodbye,

Bye, bye,

I can't take another lie,

Another night, another day,

How can I go on this time without you,

What can I do, what can I say,

Say is there any other way,

Lies,

You hide behind your lies,

Come look into my eyes,

Can't break my heart with honesty instead,

Coz I don't wanna cry,

I'd rather say goodbye,

Bye, bye,

I can't take another lie,

Lies,

You hide behind your lies,

Come look into my eyes,

Can't break my heart with honesty instead,

Coz I don't wanna cry,

I'd rather say goodbye,

Bye, bye,

I can't take another lie,"

The audience cheered and applauded as Nick bowed then walked off stage.
"How could you?" said Ellie.
"What? Ellie please" said Nick.
"How could you do that? We broke up for a reason. We will never get back together."
"Ellie please, I love you babe."
Ellie looked at Nick then stormed off.
"Those lyrics are true - everything I do for her is wrong. I'll never get her back or know my kid" said Nick.
"I'll talk to her or actually I'll get Dan to talk to her, you were great but I gotta go coz Cady's going on after the interval and she's really nervous. Sorry babe" Peyton said as she hugged Nick.
Peyton walked over to Cady and looked at her.
Cady was shaking and looked very nervous.
"Cades, calm down. You'll be fine. It's just the nerves before you go on. Once you're out there you'll be fine. Now what are you wearing?"
"Um this?"
Peyton studied Cady's outfit.
"No, that just won't do."
"Why?"
"Well for starters you're wearing your school uniform. Come with me."
Peyton and Cady ran back to their dormitory and went through their wardrobes.
"Yes, this will do" Peyton said.
Cady looked at the mini denim kilt and the black bustier with silver glitter on.
"I. I. I can't wear that."
"Yes you can - you'll look really pretty, put it on" Peyton reassured her.

Cady put the clothes on and looked stunning but she didn't think so.
"You look amazing, now let me see what make up you've got on."
Peyton studied Cady's face then handed her some lip gloss.
"Put that on and you'll be perfect. We'd best get back down there."
Cady quickly put a coat of lip gloss on and then ran back down to the Great Hall.
Hannah Blake was already on stage.
"So after the amazing talents that we saw in the first half of the talent show, the ones in this half should be even better so here to kick the festivities off is Gryffindor fourth year Cady Mayfair singing You by S Club 7."
Cady walked onto the stage, smiled at the audience then looked at Peyton and smiled again.

"You are all I need to get me through (get me through now baby),

Like a falling star I fell for you (I fell for you),

Sweet anticipation,

It's giving me the butterflies,

And my heartbeat's racing,

Coz loving you is beautiful,

When you're so irresistible,

So don't stop (don't stop),

What you're doing baby,

So good (so good),

And it drives me crazy,

One touch,

I'm in heaven, yeah,

Coz loving you is so beautiful baby coz,

You are all I need to get me through (to get me through now),

Like a falling star I fell for you (I fell for you now),

You have taught me how to love,

An angel sent from high above,

Now I know that all I need is you,

Coz I need you and you need me,

And we'll always be together,

Before I knew what love was,

I always ended up in tears,

It's just the way my world was,

Until you walked into my life,

It's something that I just can't hide,

Real love (real love),

Has come my way,

And I know (I know),

That it's here to stay,

And it feels,

Like never before,

Coz loving you is so beautiful baby coz,

You are all I need to get me through (to get me through now),

Like a falling star I fell for you (I fell for you now),

You have taught me how to love,

An angel sent from high above,

Now I know that all I need is you,

Coz I need you and you need me,

And we'll always be together,

Coz I need you and you need me,

And we'll always be together,

You're my inspiration,

My world just seems a brighter place,

I just wanna tell you,

I've never ever felt this way,

I've never thought I'd see the day,

Real love (real love),

Has come my way,

And I know (I know),

That it's here to stay,

And it feels,

Like never before,

Coz loving you is so beautiful baby coz,

You are all I need to get me through (to get me through now),

Like a falling star I fell for you (I fell for you now),

You have taught me how to love,

An angel sent from high above,

Now I know that all I need is,

You are all I need to get me through (get me through now baby),

Like a falling star I fell for you (I fell for you),

You have taught me how to love,

An angel sent from high above,

Now I know that all I need is you"

As Cady finished her song Dan managed to track Ellie down.
"What's wrong with you?" Dan said.
"What do you mean?"
"You know perfectly well what I mean. Nick went through shit with you. He sung those songs to show you what he feels for you and his kid. Goddammit Ellie he fucking sleeps cuddling a fucking photo of you. Can't you see he's head over heels in fucking love with you and he wants everything to be ok with you - he wants to be with you more than fucking anything else in the world."
"Dan it's not going to be ok, there's still gonna be a bloody kid coming into a fucking fucked up family."
"Well at least the kid know who it's Dad is and let it know it's Dad - think about it Ellie. I gotta go onstage."
Dan walked away from Ellie and was just in time to hear his cue.
"Next up we have Daniel Hallow who is also a Gryffindor fourth year singing That's when you know and Foolish both songs by Gareth Gates. What is it with this singer?"
Dan walked out on stage wearing a white suit.

"For everyone,
The story goes,
There's a special someone,
To make them whole,
Someone to give their heart completely,

And you may search,
High and low,
But when you find your angel,
How will you know?
Then you finally get that feelin',
It'll be as clear as the air you're breathin',

That's when the world feels small beneath your feet,
That's when the stars above are only just out of reach,
When you feel you're alive for the very first time,
And there's nothing that you can't rise above,
That's when you know that you're in love,

Who can tell the time and place,
When you see your soul reflected in their face,
It would be a spell you're under,
And it'll hit you just like thunder,

That's when the world feels small beneath your feet,
That's when the stars above are only just out of reach,
When you feel you're alive for the very first time,
When you hold them in your arms and can't let go,
That's when you know,

For all my life,
I have been searching,
For something I couldn't find,
But now I know that you are the one,
I understand,
I read the signs,

Coz now the world feels small beneath my feet,
And all the stars above are only just out of reach,
When you feel so alive for the very first time,
And there's nothing that you can't rise above,
That's when you know that you're in love,

That's when you know"

Dan smiled at Peyton then sang his second song.

"Love is a drug and I feel like getting high,

One last fix with a kiss is worth risking suicide,

Coz I'm living for the moment, I'm living for tonight,

I clean forgot she left me paralysed,

When I'm touching her hand, it's a blast from the past,

See the strange deja vu, yeah I know it won't last,

She turns me on, I just go on a fast,

Keeping my mind off her is one mighty task,

Oh (oh) I'm in trouble (I'm in trouble),

Feels like I'm losing my mind again (losing my mind),

Now I'm right back where I started (where I started),

I've gotta mend this broken heart of mine all over again,

I've been foolish (foolish) foolish (foolish),

Foolish with my hands held high (hands held high),

Girl I've wound up where I started,

I'm pleading guilty to a crime that my heart just cannot deny,

Time is a healer, how easy we forget,

All the misery and pain that one person can inflict,

Seems I suffer from a case of selective memory,

I clean forgot how she walked all over me,

No, no, no, can't help myself in the end I'm just a man,

With my sentimental needs for your tenderloving hands,

I'm lying when I say there's no strings attatched,

When I look at her I swear my mind goes blank,

Oh (oh) I'm in trouble (I'm in trouble),

Feels like I'm losing my mind again (losing my mind again),

Now I'm right back where I started (where I started),

I've gotta mend this broken heart of mine all over again,

I've been foolish (foolish) foolish (foolish),

Foolish with my hands held high (hands held high),

Girl I've wound up where I started,

I'm pleading guilty to a crime that my heart just cannot deny,

For one touch,

For one kiss,

What do I stand to lose,

Baby losing my mind is better than losing you,

Somebody tell me why do I gotta choose,

I'm all excited but keep getting the blues,

Oh (oh) I'm in trouble (I'm in trouble),

Feels like I'm losing my mind again (losing my mind again),

Now I'm right back where I started (where I started),

I've gotta mend this broken heart of mine all over again,

I've been foolish (foolish) foolish (foolish),

Foolish with my hands held high (hands held high),

Girl I've wound up where I started,

I'm pleading guilty to a crime that my heart just cannot deny,"

The audience applauded and Dan bowed then walked off stage.
"Thank you Daniel. That was cool. Now next on stage is Elle-Louise Weasley who is going to sing The Sweetest Feeling by Jamie Cullum then do a duet with Daniel Hallow singing Changes by Ozzy and Kelly Osbourne."
Ellie walked on stage wearing pink cords and a black top.
You could see a tiny bump that was beginning to show.
She started to sing.

"The closer you get the better you look baby,
The better you look the more I want you,
When you turn on your smile,
I feel my heart go wild,
I'm like a child with a brand new toy,

And I get the...,
Sweetest Feeling,
Hunny the sweetest,
Baby the sweetest,
Loving you,

The warmer your kiss,
The deeper you touch me baby,
The deeper your touch,
The more you thrill me,
It's more than I can stand,
Boy when you hold my hand,
I feel so grand that I could cry,

And I get the...,
Sweetest Feeling,
Hunny the sweetest,
Baby the sweetest,
Loving you,

The greater your love,
The stronger you hold me baby,
The stronger you hold,
The more I need you,
With every passing day,
I love you more in every way,
I'm in love to stay,
And I wanna say,

And I get the...,
Sweetest Feeling,
Hunny the sweetest,
Baby the sweetest,
Loving you..."

Ellie smiled and bowed then Dan joined her on stage and Ellie started to sing.

"I feel unhappy,
I am so sad,
I lost the best friend,
That I ever had,
"

She looked at Dan who sang his verse.
"She is my baby,
I love her so,
But it's too late now,
I've let her go,
"

They looked at each other and sang together.
"We're going through changes,
We're going through changes,
"

Ellie sang again.
"We've shared the years,
We've shared each day,
I love you daddy,
But I found my way,
"

Dan sang again and Harry walked out of the Great Hall.
"You know the world,
Is an evil place,
My baby is grown now,
She's found her way,
"

They both sang again.
"We're going through changes,
We're going through changes,
"

Ellie sang again.
"It took so long,
To realise,
I can still hear,
His last goodbyes,
"

Dan smiled at Ellie reassuring her then sang the next verse.
"Now all my days,
I'm filled in fears,
Wish I could go back,
And change the years,
"

They looked at each other and sang the final chorus.
"We're going through changes,
We're going through...
Changes,

Changes,
Changes,
Changes..."

Ginny got up and quietly crept into the entrance hall and saw Harry sitting on the marble staircase.
"Harry?"
"I'm so sorry Gin, I couldn't bear to see her say that not when I said what I said to her. And hearing her say it bought it all back. That's the way she used to say it too - 'I love you Daddy'. It hurts so much. And I've never forgiven myself for slapping her or saying that."
"Harry, talk to her after the show. Peyton's on in a minute and I know that you want to see her perform."
Ginny got up (with some difficulty) and held out a hand for Harry to get up and they walked back into the Great Hall and took their seats.

Hannah finished introducing Peyton and walked off stage as the lights went off.
"This should be funny" Matilda Malfoy commented to her friends and sister who laughed.
Suddenly a voice started singing from nowhere.

"I don't want a lot for Christmas,
There is just one thing I need,
I don't care about the presents,
Underneath the Christmas tree,
I just want you for my own,
More than you could ever know,
Make my wish come true...,
All I want for Christmas is,
You...,
Yea yea,
"

Suddenly the lights came back on started to flash with the upbeat music and Peyton was standing in the middle of the stage wearing a blue and lilac mini kilt and a lilac halter top.

"I don't want a lot for Christmas,
There is just one thing I need,
(And I) don't care about the presents,
Underneath the Christmas tree,
I don't need to hang my stocking,
There upon the fireplace,
Santa Claus won't make me happy,
With a toy on Christmas Day,
I just want you for my own,
More than you could ever know,
Make my wish come true,
All I want for Christmas is you...,
You baby,

Oh I won't ask for much this Christmas,
I won't even wish for snow,
(And I) I'm just gonna keep on waiting,
Underneath the mistletoe,
I won't make a list and send it,
To the North Pole for Saint Nick,
I won't even stay awake to,
Hear those magic reindeer click,
Coz I just want you here tonight,
Holding onto me so tight,
What more can I do?
Baby all I want for Christmas is you,
You baby,

All the lights are shining,
So brightly everywhere,
And the sound of children's,
Laughter fills the air,
And everyone is singing,
I hear those sleigh bells ringing,
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need,
Won't you please bring my baby to me...,

Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas,
This is all I'm asking for,
I just wanna see my baby,
Standing right outside my door,
Oh I just want you for my own,
More than you could ever know,
Make my wish come true,
Baby all I want for Christmas,
Is,
You..."

Peyton looked at Dan and smiled and Matilda looked gobsmacked.
Peyton then sang a second song.

"Endlessly,
Every time I look into your eyes,
I see forever,
I don't know why,
But every time we touch I feel alive,
There's nothing like it,
People say that love can't be that strong,
You might just believe it,
We can show you, we can prove them wrong,

Listen to my heart beat for you,
Telling you that I adore you,
If you wanna know how much I feel inside,
Listen to my heart come closer,
Let me wrap my arms around you,
There's nothing I can do,
I'm so in love with you,
Just listen to my heart,

All my love,
You really need to know that you're mine,
I'm spending the lifetime,
My whole life,
There's nothing gonna stop us,
Coz we are,
A once in a lifetime,
People say that love can't be that strong,
You might just believe it,
We can show you, we can prove them wrong,

Listen to my heart beat for you,
Telling you that I adore you,
If you wanna know how much I feel inside,
Listen to my heart come closer,
Let me wrap my arms around you,
There's nothing I can do,
I'm so in love with you,
Just listen to my heart,

I can't tell you what our future holds,
But as long as we're in love,
We're in life,

Listen to my heart beat for you,
Telling you that I adore you,
If you wanna know how much I feel inside,
Listen to my heart come closer,
Let me wrap my arms around you,
There's nothing I can do,
I'm so in love with you,
Just listen to my heart,"

Peyton bowed and saw Harry beaming at her.
Hannah came back on stage.
"Thnak you to all of our performers. Our judges will now go and decide who our winner is. While they are deciding Ellie Weasley, Peyton Potter and Cady Mayfair will sing for us. They will sing Dance Again by Gareth Gates, Anything Is Possible and Evergreen by Will Young."
The three girls walked out onto the stage and took their places.
The music started up and Ellie started to sing.
"When you need somebody to take away the emptiness,
I hope my heart is enough,
When you're searching for someone who will understand,
I hope it's me you will trust,

Love is a stranger to you anyway,
I wanna mend your broken wings,"

All of the girls then sang together.
"Make your heart dance again,
Make your heart breathe again,
Till you believe again,
Make your heart dance again,
Running free again,
Through fields of green again,
Just give me half a chance,
To make your heart dance,
"

Peyton then sang the next verse.
"It's never too late,
Don't give it all up so easily,
Just coz your hearts out of love,
Don't you stop dreaming,
Don't turn your back and walk away,
And all is not lost,

I'll play you a song only words can sing,
I wanna mend your broken wings,"

All of the girls then sang together.
"Make your heart dance again,
Make your heart breathe again,
Till you believe again,
Make your heart dance again,
Running free again,
Through fields of green again,
Just give me half a chance,
To make your heart dance,
"

Cady then sang the last verse.
"Every morning that you wake up and gaze into the sky,
Your heart will dance just like a butterfly,
An nothing else means more to me,
And maybe someday you will see,
Everything you ever dreamed you'd be,
"

All of the girls then sang together.
"Make your heart dance again,
Make your heart breathe again,
Till you believe again,
Make your heart dance again,
Running free again,
Through fields of green again,
Just give me half a chance,
To make your heart dance,
"

The girls smiled at each other and sang the next song.
Peyton sang the first verse.
"Eyes, like a sunrise,
Like a rainfall,
Down my soul,
And I wonder,
I wonder why you look at me like that,
What you're thinking,
What's behind,
Don't tell me, but it feels like love,
"

All three girls sang together.
"I'm gonna take this moment,
And make it last forever,
I'm gonna give my heart away,
And pray we'll stay together,
Coz you're the one good reason,
You're the only boy that I need,
Coz you're more beautiful than I have ever seen,
I'm gonna take this night,
And make it evergreen,
"

Cady then sang the next verse.
"Touch, like an angel,
Like velvet to my skin,
And I wonder,
Wonder why you wanna stay the night,
What you're dreaming,
What's behind,
Don't tell me, but it feels like love,
"

All three girls sang together.
"I'm gonna take this moment,
And make it last forever,
I'm gonna give my heart away,
And pray we'll stay together,
Coz you're the one good reason,
You're the only boy that I need,
Coz you're more beautiful than I have ever seen,
I'm gonna take this night,
And make it evergreen,

(Don't tell me, but it feels like love),

I'm gonna take this moment,
And make it last forever,
I'm gonna give my heart away,
And pray we'll stay together,
Coz you're the one good reason,
You're the only boy that I need,
Coz you're more beautiful than I have ever seen,
I'm gonna take this night,
And make it evergreen"

The audience applauded and the girls sang their final song.
The music started up and Cady began to sing.
"I never thought I could be feeling this way,
Standing here in front of you this perfect day,
It's hard to imagine where tomorrow will lead,
I'll keep this moment in my mind for eternity,
"

Ellie sang the next part of the song.
"Even through the rain I kept my faith,
The will to follow through,
And I never lost the strength within,
And it's all because of you,
"

They all sang the chorus.
"I'm flying high like the wind,
Reaching the impossible,
I'll never doubt again,
I'm flying high coz your love's made me see,
That anything is possible,
Possible coz you believe in me,
"

Peyton then sang the next verse.
"In a world full of strangers,
You were my saving grace,
You told me I was not alone,
Alone in this place, no,
I never believed that a dream could come true but,
If anyone has changed my mind then baby it's you,
"

Cady then sang the next verse.
"Even through the rain I kept my faith,
The will to folow through,
And I'll never lose my way again,
And it's all because of you,
"

They all sang the chorus.
"I'm flying high like the wind,
Reaching the impossible,
I'll never doubt again,
I'm flying high coz your love's made me see,
That anything is possible,
Possible coz you believe in me,
"

Ellie then sang part of the next verse.
"It's possible to spread my wings,
And reach into the sky,
"
Peyton then sang the next part.
"Believe that I can fly away,
When you're by my side,
"

They all sang the chorus.
"I'm flying high like the wind,
Reaching the impossible, I'll never doubt again,
I'm flying high coz your love's made me see,
That anything is possible,
Possible when you believe in it,
Anything is possible,
Possible when you believe in me...,
When you believe in me
"

The audience cheered and whooped and the girls bowed.
Hannah walked back on stage and hugged each girl.
"Thank you Ellie, Peyton and Cady. Those songs were amazing."
The judges walked onto the stage and handed Hannah a small, gold envelope.
The audience stopped cheering and applauding to listen to Hannah again.
"Thank you. Could all of the participants please join me on stage."
The participants all walked out on stage and stood in a huddle near Hannah.
Peyton was holding onto Dan for dear life.
"Thank you and without further ado, here are the results of the talent show."
Hannah hesitated then went on.
"In fifth place is..." she hesitated again, "Nicole MacMillon from Hufflepuff."
The crowed applauded and Nicole bowed.
Peyton held onto Dan a bit tighter.
"In fourth place is..."
She hesitated again.
"Nick Thomas from Gryffindor."
The crowd applauded again and the rest of the Gryffindor Quidditch team cheered.
Peyton held on tighter.
"In third place is..."
Peyton held on tighter again and started shaking.
"Cady Mayfair from Gryffindor."
The crowd applauded and Cady smiled.
"In second place and this was a hard one to decide because there were many outstanding performances. In 2nd place is..."
Peyton held tighter and Dan coughed.
"Peyt let go please" he said.
"No."
"Elle-Louise Weasley."
The crowd cheered and applauded and Ellie bowed and beamed.
Peyton groaned.
"There's no way I've got anywhere."
"Peyt just listen."
"And in first place is..."
Hannah hesitated a bit longer this time.
"In first place is..."
