AN: Last chapter, last chapter!!!

Sprinting down the hall, a determined Chad almost didn't notice that he'd slammed into a now very stunned Ryan.

"Sorry, man," he said, offering him a hand.

"No problem," Ryan said, brushing himself off. "Why were you in such a hurry?"

"Do you know where Kelsi is?" Chad asked urgently.

Ryan was hesitant.

"Uh, yeah, but why should I tell you? You've done enough."

"Forget everything that I've done. In face just forget all that's happened the past two weeks," he commanded breathlessly. "I just need to see Kelsi."

"You going to break her heart, again?" a resilient Ryan asked.

"No, Ryan," he answered. "That is one thing I can promise you."

"Alright then," Ryan said with a smile. "She's in the drama room."

"Thanks, dude," he said, running off.

Ryan left the room, shutting the door behind him. Kelsi picked up her guitar.

You have a way of coming easily to me

And you do what you want cause I'm not what you wanted

Chad slid up to the door. Kelsi was singing. It dawned on him that he hadn't heard her voice since the night he kissed her. He stood for a second, listening.

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

Just walk away, ain't no use defending words that you will never say

And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through

I've never been anywhere cold as you

"Wow," he thought.

You put up walls and paint them all a shade of gray

And I stood there loving you and wished them all away

And you come away with a great little story

Of a mess of a dreamer with the nerve to adore you

Chad could only compare they way her voice sounded now to when she played for him. So much auguish, heartbreak, was in it this time.

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

so Just walk away, ain't no use defending words that you will never say

And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through

You never did give a damn thing honey but I cried, cried for you

And I know you wouldn't have told nobody if I died, died for you, died for you

Chad slowly opened the door, and slipped inside. Kelsi didn't acknowledge his entrance and kept on playing.

Oh what a shame, what a rainy ending given to a perfect day

oh Every smile you fake is so condescending

Counting all the scars you made

And now that I'm sitting here thinking it through

I've never been anywhere cold as you

Kelsi hit the last chord on her guitar, and a slow clap came from the back of the room. She turned around to see Chad.

"What do you want?" she asked, springing from her seat and wiping the tears off her face.

"That was good, Kels," he said.

"That wasn't my question," she said, placing her hands on her hips.

"Kelsi, what do you think I'm doing here?" Chad laughed.

"You sure as hell can't be hear for the reason I hope you are," Kelsi admittd.

"And, why's that?"

"Well, because you were just sitting in the lunchroom with your tounge down Taylor's throat," she said, crossing her arms across her chest.

"Oh yeah, that," he said, sheepishly.

"Yeah that."

"Kelsi, I was only doing that because I felt sorry for her," Chad confessed.

"Excuse me," she asked.

Chad sighed.

"I felt sorry for her because I knew what I'd have to do to her in the end," he said, stepping closer to her.

"You mean—"

"Yes, Kelsi," Chad said, wrapping his arms around her. "I mean that me and Taylor broke up. Now whether I did it myself or not is up for debate, but nonetheless, we're done."

"You didn't have to hurt her," Kelsi said, pushing him off of her.

"Trust me, I didn't," he reassured her. "I just only wish that I could have done this weeks ago."

"But Chad come on, you know you don't want me."

"Yes, I do. Why are you trying to push me away?" Chad asked.

"Oh, God, I don't know," she sighed, ploping back down on the piano bench.

Chad made his way across the room, and placed his hands on her shoulders.

"Kelsi, we've gone through to much in the past few days to try and cause ourselves anymore pain. So, I say that we just skip this whole charade, and get to the happy ending."

"Yeah, you're right," she said, crossing her legs. "Do you realize that all the drama we've gone through recently has all been because of one little kiss."

"Yeah," he smiled, pulling her to her feet. "Imagine what would happene if I kissed you longer."

"We'd kill each other," Kelsi laughed.

"Yeah, but if a death is what I have to go through to put all this to rest, then so be it," Chad said sentimentaly.

"That, has got to be, the cheeiest line, I have ever heard," Kelsi teased.

"Ah—" Chad said pointing, his finger at her, but before he could say anything else, Kelsi grabbed his arm and pulled him in toward her, planting a long over-due return kiss on him.

"What is it with you guys and pushing me?" Kelsi yelled as they marched her up a set of stairs.

"Sorry about that," Ryan said, "but trust me you'lll like this."

"Fine," she said, allowing her guys to pull her up another flight.

"Chad, cover her eyes," Zeke commanded.

"Gladly," he said with a smile. Kelsi elbowed him in the side as he placed his hands over her eyes.

"Ok, just a few more steps," Troy said. "Ok, reveal."

Chad removed his hands, and in front of her eyes were three balloons and a small round cake with a layer of green frosting over the top.

"Sorry abour the icing," Zeke apoligized. "We tried to write something on the top of it, but it turned out as a big mess."

Kelsi was to touched to notice.

"Why did you guys do this?" she asked, placing her hand over her heart.

"Well, as much as you don't want to admit it," Troy explained, "you pretty much rule."

"Yeah, and we want you to read the message that was supposed to be on the cake," Ryan said, handing her a piece of paper.

"Ok," she said, taking it and starting to read.

The message read:

Dear Kelsi,

You may think of us as a bunch of " silly little boys", but you can't even imagine how much you mean to us. Even though you are Miss Humble and don't want to admit your triumps, we do. You are an inspiration to use all. You've penned another wonderful set of songsm, with some difficulty, we know. Also, you helped us get back to our normaal lives, and showed us that life will go on. You our little cheerleader. Oour saving grace. Our #1.

Love,

Kelsi's Biggest Fans

Kelsi looked up from the paper with moist eyes.

"You guys," she said happily, dabbing her eyes. The four boys wrapped her in a group hug for a second while she composed herself.

"Don't mention it," Ryan responded.

"Yeah, you deserve it," Troy said.

"Thank you," Kelsi said, pulling out of the hug.

"Alright, let's eat cake," Zeke said, picking up a knife a little bit eagerly.

"Um… Zeke, let me do that," Troy said, carfully taking the knife from him.

The group laughed while Troy handed out cake slices.

"Guys," Kelsi piped up, "can I just say that this whole experience, while full of drama, and some things that weren't to plesant, that I did walked away with four of the greatest friends I've ever had."

"Here, here," they chorsed, taking bites of cake.

"So, Kelsi, I must ask. Have you named your lastest show yet?" Troy asked.

"Yes," she smiled. "I just have."

"And," they asked.

"Saving Grace," Kelsi said proudly.

"Here, here," the boys said again.

They group finished their cake, and disbanded the little meeting. As they left the balcony were the party was held, Chad stopped Kelsi.

"Earlier, you forgot something you earned."

"O, what's that?" Kelsi asked.

"One fantastic boyfriend," he said, pulling her close.

"Shut up, and kiss me," she responded.

He obliged.

AN: Ok, I just have to say thank to all the reviewers. This was my first time writing and you were all very supportive, and didn't kill me. I'm going to work on the challenge I mentioned in the last chapter, so be on the lookout for that. I've decided that Chelsi basically rules!!!!

The song was Cold As You by Taylor Swift. I know I used it earlier but you get the idea. I don't own.

-Hakuna mautata, bitches!!
