-Chapter 39-Solos and talks part 1-

-Maribel pov-

Sant-Snixx has avoided me for the past few days. I sigh and settle into Shelby's office chair. I have applied to be the school's nurse currently. I sigh as I look at my application.

There's a knock on the door and I look up. I raise a surprised eyebrow when I see a beautiful blonde standing there. I motion her in and she smiles before entering.

"I'm Holly Holiday" She looks at me confused some "I believe you aren't Shelby"

"No" I stand up and look over her "May I ask why you have come to see my Girlfriend?"

"I-uh" I look at her face as she gulps "I was told to come here to talk about helping the club"

"We have enough assistant" I point to the door "Goodbye"

"Maribel!" I roll my eyes and look at the doorway to see Shelby "Leave Holly alone!"

Holly takes a hesitant step toward Shelby "Hi" She holds her hand out "I am Holly Holliday as You know! I came because I am now a science teacher here and I have experience with show choir!"

"Yes I know" They both walk back fully into the room "I could use some experience with the team"

"You have ENOUGH assistants" Shelby sends me a glare and I roll my eyes again "You aren't getting on the dating train"

"I would be lying by saying you two aren't very beautiful women" I raise a eyebrow and she goes on "But I'd never try and intrude on a relationship...again"

"As long as you know your place" I get hit by a book and look at Shelby "HEY!"

"SHUT UP!" I growl and she looks back at Holly "You can start helping today"

"Thank you" They shake hands and she looks at me "I hope we can move past all of this eventually"

She walks out and I shake my head. Girls like that annoy me. They have it all and never had to work for anything. But something drew me to her some.

The realization dawn when Judy walks in with a smile. I turn toward Shelby and she starts laughing. I sigh defeatedly and look back at Judy. She looks super confused and I just shake my head.

-Time skip-

"Alright" Shelby claps and looks at the club "We have a new helper! Welcome back Holly Holiday!"

There's a few claps and Holly shyly waves. So history is known of her. I don't like that our girls were the claps. I look at her and she gives me a Judy like smile.

"Solo tryouts!" I turn away and look at the club "Who's up first?"

Tina raises her hand and walks up. We sit at the judging table. Of course Holly was sat beside me. I glare at my girlfriends who just smile.

-Tina's tryout-

Look at me,

I may never pass for a perfect bride, or a perfect daughter.

Can it be,

I'm not meant to play this part?

Now I see, that if I were truly to be myself,

I would break my family's heart.

Who is that girl I see, staring straight back at me?

Why is my reflection someone I don't know?

Somehow I cannot hide?

Who I am, though I've tried.

When will my reflection show, who I am, inside?

How I pray, that a time will come,

I can free myself, from their expectations

On that day, I'll discover someway to be myself,

and to make my family proud.

They want a docile lamb,

No-one knows who I am.

Must there be a secret me,

I'm forced to hide?

Must I pretend that I am someone else for all time?

When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

When will my reflection show, who I am inside?

That was honestly really good. I'm a fan of Disney songs and Mulan was a good one. I think that could be a winner.

Dave steps down next and takes a deep breath. He picks up a guitar and starts playing.

-Dave-

Woo!

Smooth talkin', so rockin'

He's got everything that a girl's wantin'

Guitar cutie, he plays it groovy

And I can't keep myself from doin' somethin' stupid

Think I'm really fallin' for his smile

Get butterflies when he says my name

Woo!

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

And when he's lookin' at me

I wanna get all sentimental

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me

Tellin' me maybe he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one

He's lightnin', sparks are flyin'

Everywhere I go he's always on my mind and

I'm goin' crazy about him lately

And I can't help myself from how my heart is racin'

Think I'm really diggin' on his vibe

He really blows me away, hey!

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

And when he's lookin' at me

I wanna get all sentimental

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me

Tellin' me maybe he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one

And he's got a way of makin' me feel

Like everything I do is perfectly fine

The stars are aligned when I'm with him

And I'm so into him

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

And when he's lookin' at me

I wanna get all sentimental

He's got somethin' special

He's got somethin' special

I can hardly breathe, something's tellin' me

Tellin' me maybe he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one, he could be the one

He could be the one (be the one)

Proud to be siging about a boy he likes! Another Disney pick too. I look at the girls papers to see the scores are high on both.

Up next is...Brittany who skips all the way down. Surprisingly we haven't had a lot of people sign up for Solo's. We only have one more after this.

-Brittany-

I got you in the palm of my hand

Wanna put somethin' hot in you

So hot that you can't stand (And you can't stand)

Gonna take you to my lips

Empty out every last drop

So thirsty for what's in you, baby

That I can't stop (That I can't stop)

In the middle of the night, I'm in bed alone

Don't care if you're glass, paper, Styrofoam

When I need some water, baby, coffee or gin

You're the only thing, I wanna put them in

My cup, my cup

Sayin' what's up to my cup, my cup

More of a friend than a silly pup, my cup

You know what it is

I'm sayin' what's up to my cup (Ahh)

I'm sayin' what's up to my cup (Ahh)

I'm sayin' what's up to my cup (Ahh)

We all sit at the table with our jaws dropped. We all share looks and then look back at her. She smiles and skips back to Sugar. We just sit and wait for the next one.

Eventually Cherry comes down and stands ready. The music begins and I can't say I know this one.

-Cherry-

I be on my suit and tie, shit tied, shit tied

I be on my suit and tie, shit tied, shit

Can I show you a few things, a few things, a few things, little baby?

I be on my suit and tie, shit tied, shit

I be on my suit and tie, shit tied, shit

Let me show you a few things

Let me show you a few things

Wait a minute

You ready, JT?

I can't wait 'til I get you on the floor

Good-looking

Going hot, so hot, just like an oven

And I burned myself, I just had to touch it

But it's so fire

And it's all mine

Hey baby

And we don't mind all the watching

'Cause if they study close, real close

They might learn something

She ain't nothing but a little doozie when she does it

She's so fire

But that's alright

'Cause you're all mine

Oh

Hey

All black at the white shows

White shoes at the black shows

Green card for the Cuban links

Y'all sit back and enjoy the light show

Nothing exceeds like excess

Stoute got gout from having the best of the best

Is this what it's all about?

I'm at the restaurant

My rant disturbing the guests

Years of distress, tears on the dress

Trying to hide her face with some make up sex

This is truffle season

Tom Ford tuxedos for no reason

All Saints for my angel

Ass-tight Denim and some Dunks

I'll show you how to do this young!

No papers, catch vapors

Get high, out Vegas

D'usses on doubles, ain't looking for trouble

You just got good genes so a nigga trying to cuff you

Tell your mother that I love her 'cause I love you

Tell your father we go farther as a couple

They ain't lose a daughter, got a son

And as long as I got my suit and tie

Oh

(Suit and tie)

Hey

Yeah

"Well that was all something!" I shake my head and smile "We will add up scores and tell you who won"

We all go to Shelby's office and close the door. I sit in a chair as do the others. I look over my scores and then look up at everyone.

"I have a ten on Dave and Tina" I look at Brittany "And a nine on Cherry"

"What about Brittany?" I look at Judy "What?"

"She sang a song about sex" I shake my head "I'd give her tryout a five at best"

Holly raises her hand "If I may?" I roll my eyes and Motion her on "I think Tina and Dave were the best two"

"I think we are all in agreement on that" Shelby sighs "Who didn't have a ten on one of them?"

Judy raises her hand "I didn't put a ten on Tina" Judy turns her paper toward us "I gave her a nine"

"So then its Unanimous" I stand up "Let's go tell the club we have our soloist"

We walk in and freeze. Brittany is holding Sugar back from Tina. Tina has the girls in front of her. Dave is standing with Mike confused.

"What happened in here?!" Everyone looks at us "Who started this?"

"Tina made fun of Brittany's song!" Sugar turns and growls "She sang what she wanted to!"

"IT WAS BAD ORIGINALLY!" Tina looks at us "It's a stupid original song she wrote about sex"

"Well neither of you won" Everyone looks at me confused and I point at Dave "He's the soloist so get your stuff and your dismissed!"

There's mumbles from Sugar and Tina as they leave. I sigh and shake my head. These kids will make me age quick. I go to grab my bag when the club doors close. I turn and see Snixx is alone with me.

"So" She looks at me "Guess we have to talk now huh?"

I take a deep breath and nod. Here goes nothing.
