Cory In The House – The Fight For Alyssa
Disclaimer – I OWN EVERYTHING! Nawt! Why would I even have a disclaimer if I did? You people are so gullible, gawsh. ;)
Chapter 9 – An End And A Beginning
----------------------
Alyssa, Newt, and Meena ran into the most unexpected person while walking to the Evans' café, Stickler.
"Oh, you…why do you look so upset?" He asked.
"Come with us." Alyssa motioned for him to follow them into the building.
"So Cory's mad at us, and…oh my gasp! We have to call the guy!" Alyssa cried, after explaining what had happened to Stickler.
They called Mr. Thompson and scheduled an audition for that Friday.
"We just have to get Cory to forgive us." Alyssa said quietly.
"Well, maybe…I could help you." Stickler said.
-------------
"Cory?" Meena walked into the White House kitchen.
"His room." Mr. Baxter said.
"What are you making?" Meena looked curiously at the pot on the stove.
"Don't ask." Mr. Baxter sighed.
Meena knocked on Cory's door.
"Come in." A voice grumbled from inside.
Meena walked inside.
"Hi." She said nervously.
"I don't want to talk to you." Cory said, and swiveled in his chair so his back was to her.
"Cory, Stickler told me about your…feelings for me." Meena said.
"Oh." Cory spun around again, embarrassment written across his face.
"And I'm here to tell you I feel the same way." Meena said.
"Really?" Cory asked.
"Yes." Meena smiled.
-------------------
"You look this time." Alyssa whispered.
"No, you!" Newt replied.
"I'm too short." Alyssa said.
"Fine." Newt sighed and peeked into the window. "Yes!" He whisper-yelled, and ducked back down.
"What?" Alyssa pawed at his arm anxiously.
"Cory and Meena walked out of his room holding hands." Newt grinned.
Alyssa put a walkie talkie to her mouth, pressed the button, and said "Mission accomplished."
A voice, fuzzy with static, replied "Okay, now leave before –"
"Newt? Alyssa? What are you doing under our window?" Mr. Baxter was looking down at them from the window.
"Uh…we're just…looking for my guitar pick." She fibbed.
Mr. Baxter raised his eyebrows unbelievingly.
"See, I was standing by the window, showing it to Sophie, and...Newt bumped into me and it flew out the window." Alyssa said.
"And you couldn't just buy a new one?" He said.
"Well, this one's very special; I got it from…Nick!" Alyssa said as he looked out the window. "Yeah, he threw it out into the audience at a concert and I caught it."
"Hmm, I only do that at California concerts…" Nick said.
"Well, see, I just moved here from California…and, yeah, Newt and I will be going now!" Alyssa said as Stickler's voice came out of the walkie talkie again.

"So, this is a song we wrote this week…it describes what we've experienced…more recently. So, here it goes." Alyssa introduced their song. They were performing for the record company.
Cory tapped his drumsticks together four times, and he, Newt, and Alyssa started playing their instruments.
"There she goes again, the girl I'm in love with, it's cool we're just friends." Newt sang.
"We walk the halls in school, and we know it's casual, it's cool we're just friends." Alyssa sang.
"I don't wanna lead you on, but the truth is I've grown fond." They sang together. "Everyone knows it's meant to be, falling in love, just you and me, till the end of time, till I'm on his/her mind, it'll happen, I've been making lots of plans, like a picket fence and a rose garden, I'll just keep on dreaming, but it's cool 'cause we're just friends."
"Small talk on IM." Meena sang.
"Just one word sentences." Cory sang.
"It's cool 'cause we're just friends. If I had my way, we'd talk and talk all day." They sang together. "Everyone knows it's meant to be, falling in love just you and me, till the end of time, till I'm on his/her mind, it'll happen, I've been making lots of plans, like a picket fence and a rose garden, I'll just keep on dreaming, it's cool cause we're just friends."
"Thinking about how we're gonna say our vows, it's cool we're just friends." Meena and Alyssa sang.
"She walks down the aisle, seeing my face smile, 'cause now we're more than friends." Cory and Newt sang.
"Everyone knows it's meant to be, falling in love just you and me, till the end of time, till I'm on his/her mind, it'll happen, we've been making lots of plans, like a picket fence and a rose garden, I'll just keep on dreaming, keep on thinking of how we used to be just friends." All four sang.
"La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la." Newt and Cory sang. "How we used to be just friends."
"La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la." The four friends sang. "How we used to be just friends."
The record company people jumped up and started clapping. The four walked to the front of the stage, setting down their instruments.
"So do we have the deal?" Cory asked.
"You've got it!" Mr. Thompson cried.
"YES!" Meena, Cory, Newt, and Alyssa yelled. They threw their hands up and jumped in the air, the signature DC3 (now 4) end of an episode, in this case, the story. But it's not really only an end. It's an end...and a beginning.
THE END
