Chapter 3:The Dance.
Disclaimer: I also dont own Savage Garden's Song Crash and Burn.
"Errr," Reaver stammered as everyone looked at him. "Reaver, you heard the Principal go." said Mrs. Meyer. Reaver runs out and Jeremy is frozen in place. Belpois, he thought, thats why he look's like me but...it can't be. Hmm i'll look on this after the dance.
After the last classes interuptions, everyone was excited for the Valentine's Dance. Reaver, Zen and A.N.A.X had already left to prepare.
Yumi was walking next to Ulrich when she just couldn't stand it anymore. "U-umm Ulrich," "Yes Yumi?" Yumi cleared her throat."Will you umm go to the er dance with me?" Ulrich stopped walking,"Oh Yumi, i'm sorry but Heidi already asked me. I'm sorry Yumi." Yumi just walked past him not saying anything Ulrich thought, 'Maybe I should have told Heidi no.' Ulrich just went to his dorm to prepare.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everyone was in the gym dancing to the sound of the mixer when the Principal walked up to the microphone. "Attention the live band A.N.A.X is here to play some songs." He barely got to finish because many of the students began cheering at the name of A.N.A.X. Reaver, Zen and everyone else in the band walked out and got ready. They sang the first slow song of the evening. Crash and Burn. Ulrich said to Jeremy, "I bet they won't sound all that good." Jeremy agreed by nodding.
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Ulrich looked shocked.
Give me a moment please to tame your wild wild heart
I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you
It's hard to find relief and people can be so cold
When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore
All the couples started dancing leaving Yumi all alone. Yumi got up and stood in a corner slightly crying.
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Yumi looked up at A.N.A.X to see Reaver smile at her.
When you feel all alone
And a loyal friend is hard to find
You're caught in a one way street
With the monsters in your head
When hopes and dreams are far away and
You feel like you can't face the day
Yumi smiled back and listened to the lyrics of the song
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
And there has always been heartache and pain
And when it's over you'll breathe again
You'll breath again
When you feel all alone
And the world has turned it's back on you
Give me a moment please
To tame your wild wild heart
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
The song stopped and everyone clapped. A.N.A.X got ready for the next song which was gonna be a little faster.
William walked up to Yumi. "Hey you ok?" Yumi looked at William,"I will be once your gone!" she snapped. William walked away shocked.
Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know
Someday we gonna dance with those liars
Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin'
They tellin' me it's all good just wait
You know you're gonna be there someday
Sippin' on Jim Beam ok
Gotta get these things one day
Till then do another line you know
Searching for that other high
Stop or I gotta steal then steal
Kill or I'm gonna be killed
I got a sack in my pocket
Conscious yellin' drop it
You know we're gonna lose it someday
And we tryin' to hold it all together
But the devil is too clever so
I'm gonna die you gonna die we gonna die
Someday one day I said
CHORUS:
Someday we gonna rise up on the wind you know
Someday we gonna dance with those liars
Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin'
Try to lie but it ain't me
Ain't me try to look but I can't see
Can't stop right now cause I'm too far
And I can't keep goin' cause it's too hard
In the day in the night it's the same thing
On the field on the block it's the same game
On the real if you stop then it's no pain
But if you can't feel pain then it's no gain
Rearrange and you change and it's all bad
And you try to maintain but you fall back
And you crawl and you slip and you slide down
Wanna make it to the top better start now
So I hold my soul and I die hard
All alone in the night in the graveyard
Someday one day I'm gonna be free
And they won't try to kill me for being me
Hey someday
CHORUS:
Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know
Someday we gonna dance with those liars
Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on flyin'
If you know how this is
Gonna see it's not that easy
Don't stop get it till it's done
From where you are or have begun
I said keep on try a little harder
To see everything you need to be
Believe in your dreams
That you see when you're asleep
CHORUS:
Someday we gonna rise up on that wind you know
Someday we gonna dance with those liars
Someday we gonna break free from these chains and keep on keep on keep on keep on flyin'
Everyone clapped again and Yumi looked around as if expecting some one to just pop up and dance with her.
Reaver got on the mic for a little message, "This is the last sorta fast song so everyone pair up after this song.
Introduction spoken by Reaver and rap by Reaver instruments on the mixer.
Yeah...
It's my life...
My own words I guess...
Have you ever loved someone so much, you'd give an arm for?
Not the expression, no, literally give an arm for?
When they know they're your heart
And you know you were their armour
And you will destroy anyone who would try to harm 'her
But what happens when karma, turns right around and bites you?
And everything you stand for, turns on you to spite you?
What happens when you become the main source of her pain?
"Daddy look what I made", Dad's gotta go catch a plane
"Daddy where's Mommy? I can't find Mommy where is she?"
I don't know go play Hailie, baby, your Daddy's busy
Daddy's writing a song, this song ain't gonna write itself
I'll give you one underdog then you gotta swing by yourself
Then turn right around on that song and tell her you love her
And put hands on her mother, who's a spitting image of her
That's Slim Shady, yeah baby, Slim Shady's crazy
Shady made me, but tonight Shady's rocka-by-baby...
Chorus
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back...
Verse 2
I keep having this dream, I'm pushin' Hailie on the swing
She keeps screaming, she don't want me to sing
"You're making Mommy cry, why? Why is Mommy crying?"
Baby, Daddy ain't leaving no more, "Daddy you're lying
"You always say that, you always say this is the last time
"But you ain't leaving no more, Daddy you're mine"
She's piling boxes in front of the door trying to block it
"Daddy please, Daddy don't leave, Daddy - no stop it!"
Goes in her pocket, pulls out a tiny necklace locket
It's got a picture, "this'll keep you safe Daddy, take it withcha'"
I look up, it's just me standing in the mirror
These fuckin' walls must be talking, cuz man I can hear 'em
They're saying "You've got one more chance to do right" - and it's tonight
Now go out there and show that you love 'em before it's too late
And just as I go to walk out of my bedroom door
It's turns to a stage, they're gone, and this spotlight is on
And I'm singing...
Chorus
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back...
Verse 3
Sixty thousand people, all jumping out their seat
The curtain closes, they're throwing roses at my feet
I take a bow and thank you all for coming out
They're screaming so loud, I take one last look at the crowd
I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seeing
"Daddy it's me, help Mommy, her wrists are bleeding,"
But baby we're in Sweden, how did you get to Sweden?
"I followed you Daddy, you told me that you weren't leavin'
"You lied to me Dad, and now you make Mommy sad
"And I bought you this coin, it says 'Number One Dad'
"That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin
"I get the point - fine, me and Mommy are going"
But baby wait, "it's too late Dad, you made the choice
"Now go out there and show 'em that you love 'em more than us"
That's what they want, they want you Marshall, they keep.. screamin' your name
It's no wonder you can't go to sleep, just take another pill
Yeah, I bet you you will. You rap about it, yeah, word, k-keep it real
I hear applause, all this time I couldn't see
How could it be, that the curtain is closing on me
I turn around, find a gun on the ground, cock it
Put it to my brain and scream "die Shady" and pop it
The sky darkens, my life flashes, the plane that I was supposed to be on crashes and burns to ashes
That's when I wake up, alarm clock's ringin', there's birds singin'
It's Spring and Hailie's outside swinging, I walk right up to Kim and kiss her
Tell her I miss her, Hailie just smiles and winks at her little sister
Almost as if to say..
Chorus/Outro
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back
And when I'm gone, just carry on, don't mourn
Rejoice every time you hear the sound of my voice
Just know that I'm looking down on you smiling
And I didn't feel a thing, So baby don't feel my pain
Just smile back...
Reaver get's on the mixer and say's into the Microphone."Okay everyone, time to partner up i have one more Extras good slow song up my sleeve." Everyone got paired up and waited. Ulrich looked over at Yumi who was all alone. Reaver blocked the mic and talked to JB for a sec and nodded and went to his girlfriend to dance. Hey Yumi, wanna dance?" Ulrich asked Yumi "Sure' she responded. Ulrich took her hand and led her to the dance floor just as the song was starting.
--------------------------------------------------
Jeremy's POV
"Whoa, I'm dancing with Aelita." I pulled her closer to me and blushed as i sang the song to her.
Maybe it's intuition
But some things you just don't question
Like in your eyes
I see my future in an instant
And there it goes
I think I've found my best friend
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
Aelita looked up at me with tears in her eye's.
There's just no rhyme or reason
Only this sense of completion
And in your eyes
I see the missing pieces
I'm searching for
I think I've found my way home
I know that it might sound more than a little crazy
But I believe
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
A thousand angels dance around you
I am complete now that I've found you
I knew I loved you before I met you
I think I dreamed you into life
I knew I loved you before I met you
I have been waiting all my life
Ulrich's POV
I looked at Yumi as she snuggled against my neck as we were dancing.
God, she's so beautiful. I wonder if I should tell her how i feel...well not now i might ruin the moment.
So i just held her closer and waited for the next song.
Reaver set up another mixer slow song and started it and singing it into the microphone.
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful
'Cos I'm counting on a new beginning.
A reason for living.
A deeper meaning.
Chorus
I want to stand with you on a mountain.
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.
Until the sky falls down on me...
Ulrich laid his head on Yumi's as she pulled him closer.
Verse 1
And when the stars are shining brightly
In the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish
Send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry..
The tears of joy
For all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded
By the comfort and protection of..
The highest power.
In lonely hours.
The tears devour you..
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...
Bridge
Oh can't you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cos it's standing right before you.
All that you need will surely come...
I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do...
Chorus
Eveyone stopped dancing and some seperated but Yumi and Ulrich and Jeremy and Aelita.
"Okay everyone last song, so get with the person you want to be with for the rest of your life."
Yumi and Ulrich nor Jeremy and Aelita moved. Reaver just played the song, jumped down off the stage, and asked Sissy to dance which earned several "Awwww's."
Then the music started playing.
"Could It Be"
I know we've been friends forever
But now I think I'm feeling something totally new
And after all this time I opened up my eyes
Now I see you were always with me
Ulrich looked into Yumi's eye's as did Yumi and they both smiled.
Chorus
Could it be you & I
Never imagined
Could it be suddenly I'm fallin' for you
Could it be you were right here beside me and I never knew
Could it be that it's true
It's you and it's you
It's kinda funny you were always near
But who would ever thought we'd end up here
And everytime I need you, you've been there for me
Now it's clear I've been waiting for you
Chorus
'Cause today is the start of the rest of our lives
I can see it in your eyes
And it's real, and it's true
It's just me and you
Could it be that it's you
Chorus
Jeremy kissed Aelita with no thought whatsoever but wasn't complaining and neither was Aelita.
Ulrich kissed Yumi at the exact time Jeremy and Aelita kissed.
They seperated a little while later and blushed then escorted their respective dates home.
However, Jeremy was to busy walking Aelita to her dorm he forgot all about that little Dante Belpois thing.
"Goodnight, Jeremy." Aelita said in her innoccent voice.
"Goodnight, Princess." and with one more kiss Jeremy went into his dorm and to bed.
