This takes place a week after the last chapter. Enjoy!
(Johnny's POV)
I was getting ready for my dress rehearsal with Nooshy when moon started panicking
Johnny: What's wrong Moon?
Buster: We need Nooshy. We haven't seen her since she went to get changed
Johnny: I can go look for her now if you want
Buster: (relieved) Thank you Johnny
I left to find Nooshy. The first place I looked was the changing booths. I walked into the room and heard crying. She was in her changing booth
Johnny: Nooshy?
Nooshy: (crying) I'm not doing the show
Johnny: Why not? Does you costume not fit?
Nooshy: It's not that. I look terrible in it
Johnny: Will you let your mate see?
She walked out and I looked at her. She tilted her head and looked at me funny
Nooshy: (blushes) Johnny
Johnny: (distracted by her) Yeah?
Nooshy: Your nose is bleeding
Johnny: It is? (sees blood) I…uh….we….should get going
Nooshy: (giggles) Yeah, Come on you big weirdo
I wipe the blood and we walk back to the moon troupe and Porsha runs past us. Once we arrive, Tyson is walking back and forth on the stage, muttering to himself
Johnny: Tyson!
Tyson ignores us
Nooshy: Let me handle it. TYSON!
Tyson jumped as he heard his name being called
Tyson: H..hey guys. Did Porsha run past you?
Nooshy and Johnny: Yeah she did
Tyson: (relieved) Ok, I know where she went…..sorta
Nooshy: What happened?
Tyson: I'll explain later (goes to run to find Porsha) By the way, your nose looks to have been bleeding. It wasn't like that when you left (looks at Nooshy) You look awesome in that
Johnny: I…its fine. You should go find Porsha
Tyson ran to find Porsha and we started our first pratise
Buster: ACTION!
Buster: The giant space is empty, quiet. Anne sits on the edge of a trampoline, shaken and upset. Phillip stands before her, holding her hand. They are in the middle of a heart-to- heart. He is courting her, tenderly. She is sad, skeptical.
Johnny: You can't listen them. Those people are hateful. Ignorant
Buster: He tries to touch her face, but she pulls away, nervous.
Nooshy: Don't... Please… We shouldn't even be here like
Johnny: Why not? What's wrong with our being together?
Buster: She smiles sadly -the question seems naive, quixotic
Nooshy: It is dangerous
Johnny: Then let us live dangerously. I won't let those people dictate how I live.
Nooshy: It's not just them. Look at the world... Any time I step outside this building...
Johnny: Oh, damn the world! If it is made up of fools, that is their problem, not yours!
Buster: She looks at him, heart melting. He leans in for a kiss. Nooshy leans to kiss him, then pulls away - sad and scared.
Buster: He sees her unhappy reluctance - he must convince her. MUSIC starts. Johnny sings a LOVE SONG with a driving beat.
Johnny:
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
I know you want me
So don't keep sayin' our hands are tied
You claim it's not in the cards
And fate is pullin' you miles away
And out of reach from me
But you're here in my heart
So who can stop me if I decide
That you're my destiny?
What if we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine
Nothing could keep us apart
You'd be the one I was meant to find
It's up to you, and it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
So why don't we rewrite the stars?
Maybe the world could be ours
Tonight
Nooshy:
You think it's easy
You think I don't wanna run to you
But there are mountains
And there are doors that we can't walk through
I know you're wondering why because we're able to be
Just you and me within these walls
But when we go outside, you're gonna wake up and see
That it was hopeless after all
No one can rewrite the stars
How can you say you'll be mine?
Everything keeps us apart
And I'm not the one you were meant to find
It's not up to you
It's not up to me
When everyone tells us what we can be
How can we rewrite the stars?
Say that the world can be ours
Tonight
Both:
All I want is to fly with you
All I want is to fall with you
So just give me all of you
It feels impossible
It's not impossible
Is it impossible?
Say that it's possible
How do we rewrite the stars?
Say you were made to be mine?
Nothing can keep us apart
'Cause you are the one I was meant to find
It's up to you
And it's up to me
No one can say what we get to be
And why don't we rewrite the stars?
Changing the world to be ours
Nooshy
You know I want you
It's not a secret I try to hide
But I can't have you
We're bound to break and my hands are tied
Butser: (tearing up) As the SONG ends, they seem about to kiss... She pulls back.
Buster: (crying) Eyes filling with tears, she shakes her head - it can't work between them. She turns, walks away. He watches, heartbroken.
Buster: (Crying) End of scene. Well done you two. I really felt the emotions in it
Nooshy: Thanks Moon
Johnny: We should go and see if Tyson found Porsha
(Tyson's POV)
I walked into the room to find Porsha crying on the bed. I sit beside her
Tyson: You ok?
Porsha:(crying)
Tyson: I haven't sung this since….."it" happened but here we go
Tyson:
I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one call away
Call me, baby, if you need a friend
I just wanna give you love
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Reaching out to you, so take a chance
No matter where you go, know you're not alone
I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one call away
Come along with me and don't be scared
I just wanna set you free
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon
You and me can make it up, anyway
For now, we can stay here for a while
Cause you know, I just wanna see your smile
No matter where you go, know you're not alone
I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one call away
When you're weak I'll be strong
I'm gonna keep holding on
Now don't you worry, it won't be long
Darling, if you feel like hope is gone
Just run into my arms
I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one, I'm only one call away
I'm only one call away
I'll be there to save the day
Superman got nothing on me
I'm only one call away
I'm only one call away
Tyson: (hugs Porsha) Wanna open up?
Porsha: (hugs back the lets go) A couple of months ago that my dad died and now, I'm getting the worst of it. I've been getting the blame for it. I've been hated. I wanted to tell Moon, but he was too busy looking for Nooshy. After you said that the show was a in a week I panicked and ran off
Tyson: I'm sorry about your dad. What happened to Mr Crystal?
Johnny and Nooshy burst through the door, still wearing their costumes
Nooshy: We don't talk about Crystal no, no, no. We don't talk about Crystal…but it was Rosita's
Johhny: It was her performance
Nooshy: We were too busy watching and nobody was protecting moon
Johnny: No one was protecting Moon
Nooshy: Crystal runs and takes moon with him
Johnny: Buster!
Nooshy: You telling this story or am I?
Johnny: I'm sorry Nooshy please go on
Nooshy: Crytsal throws him from the top
Johnny: What could we do?
Nooshy: Rosita jumps and saves him
Johnny: Suki also trapped him at the top
Nooshy: Relived at the sight of her
Johnny: We are so lucky but anyway
Both: We don't talk about Crystal no, no, no. We don't talk about Crystal
Suki: Hey, grew to get used to his anger issues. I could always hear him sorta muttering and mumbling. I associate him with the sound of thunder. CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! It's a heavy lift with a title so humbling. Always left me and his staff fumbling. Grappling with laws that even he couldn't understand. Do you understand?
Porsha: Seven foot frame. Me at his side. When calls for you. You better be prepared. Yeah, he crushes dreams and feasts on your screams
S,P,N,J: We don't talk about Crystal no, no, no. We don't talk about Crystal
Rosita: He said I wouldn't pull it off but I proved him wrong (well done)
Buster: He said he would kill me. How I am I not dead? (don't know)
Gunter: He said I had a good idea but took the credit (no no)
Tyson: Um Crystal, Yeah, about that crystal, I just want to know about Crystal. So tell me the truth snd the whole truth Crystal
Porsha: Hey guys, just one more time
All: Let's do it
I am not typing the lyrics so imagine it is here
All: Don't talk about Crystal
Tyson: Why did I talk about Crystal?
All:Not a word about Crystal
Tyson: I never should of brought up Crystal
