"Baby, I was thinking about something." Ava said looking down at him as she propped her head on her elbow laying next to him in her bed.

"What Baby?" he asked leaning up to kiss her.

"I want to write a song with you." she smiled caressing his face.

"You do? I thought you hated the song writing aspect of music." he asked looking up at her rolling over onto his side to face her.

"I don't hate it. I'm just not that good at it. And you're great. With you, I think we can write one hell of a song." she smiled as he wrapped his arms around her to pull her close to him.

"I would to love write a song with you Ava." he smiled leaning in to kiss her again.

"Really? I mean, really?" she asked excitedly looking over at him.

"Yeah really. I would be honored to write a song with you." he whispered kissing her as they made love again.

"I can't believe I'm gonna perform again." Ava smiled looking up at Roger from the side of the stage.

"Are you OK Ava?" he asked looking down at her.

"Yeah, I'm great. I'm just excited." she smiled looking up at him as he wrapped his arms around her.

"Oh God. I did not miss this." Jimmy said rolling his eyes laughing.

"Jealous." Roger laughed looking over at him.

"Nauseous." Jimmy countered as June and Will laughed with him.

"OK you guys. We're going on in 5 minutes and we have to prepare." Ava laughed looking up at all the boys.

"Ava, we just wanted you to know that we missed you and we're glad you're back." Jimmy smiled looking down at her as the other guys nodded.

"Thanks Jimmy. I'm really glad to be back." she smiled looking up at him as Roger leaned down to kiss Ava's head.

"We're really proud of you Baby." Roger smiled looking down at her.

"I'm pretty proud of myself. Now let's get out there and kick some ass." she laughed looking up at him.

"Are you sure you don't want to do the new song?" Roger asked looking down at her.

"I'm positive. I don't think it's ready yet." she said looking up at him.

"Baby, it's ready. But if you don't feel comfortable doing it, we won't do it." he said taking her face into his hands.

"Thank you Roger. I love you." she smiled looking up at him.

"I love you too Ava." he whispered leaning in to kiss her.

"Come on, you two. We're on." Will told them smiling.

"Thanks Will." Ava smiled as Roger held her in his arms.

"Welcome back Baby." Roger smiled taking her hand and leading her on the stage.

"Hi, we're Transparent." Ava smiled as the crowd began cheering. She turned around towards Roger to hear he was cheering loudest of all. As the applause died down the guys started the music and Ava began singing. 2 songs into the performance Ava approached Roger. "I think we should do the new song." she smiled looking over at him.

"Are you sure? I thought you said it wasn't ready?" he asked looking down at her.

"I thought you said it was?" she laughed looking up at him.

"OK, let's do it." he smiled caressing her face.

"OK, this is a new song that we've never done before. Roger and I wrote it together. I hope you like it." she smiled looking back at Roger as they started the song. "I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach, and the perfect waves are starting to come, his hair is flying out in ribbons of gold, and his touch has got the power to stun, I've got a dream 'bout an angel in the forest, enchanted by the edge of a lake, his body's flowing in the jewels alive, and the earth below is starting to shake, but I don't see any angels in the city, I don't hear any holy choirs sing, and if I can't get an angel, I can still get a boy
and a boy'd be the next best thing, the next best thing to an angel, a boy'd be the next best thing, I've got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle, and he's dancing like a cat on the stairs, he's got the fire of a prince in his eyes, and the thunder of a drum in his ears, I've got a dream 'bout a boy on a star, lookin' down upon the rim of the world, he's there all alone and dreamin' of someone like me,I'm not an angel but at least I'm a girl, I've got a dream when the darkness is over, we'll be lyin' in the rays of the sun, but it's only a dream and tonight is for real, you'll never know what it means, but you'll know how it feels, it's give me be over (over), before you know it's begun, (before you know it's begun), it's all we really got tonight, stop your cryin' hold on (tonight), before you know it it's gone (tonight), tonight is what it means to be young, tonight is what it means to be young, let the rebels begin, let the fire be started, we're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted, let the rebels begin, let the fire be started, we're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted, let the rebels begin, let the fire be started ...(tonight is what it means to be young...), we're dancing for the restless and the broken-hearted...(before you know it it's gone...), let the rebels begin, let the fire be started...(tonight is what it means to be young...), we're dancing for the desperate and the broken-hearted...(before you know it it's gone...), say a prayer in the darkness for the magic to come, no matter what it seams, tonight is what it means to be young, before you know it it's gone ...(tonight is what it means to be young...)
tonight is what it means to be young...(before you know it it's gone...), before you know it it's gone, I've got a dream when the darkness is over, we'll be lyin' in the rays of the sun, but it's only a dream and tonight is for real, you'll never know what it means, but you'll know how it feels, it's give me be over (over), before you know it's begun (before you know it's begun), it's all we really got tonight, stop your cryin' hold on (tonight), before you know it's gone (tonight), tonight is what it means to be young

Ava and Roger sung with such energy and confidence. When the song ended the crowd went wild. "Thank you. Good night." Ava yelled over the crowd as she dove into Roger's arms.

"Baby, that was amazing. I told you it was ready." he smiled holding her in his arms.

"It was. Oh my God, I can't believe it. That was amazing." she smiled holding him tight.

"Ava, Roger that was incredible. I'm so proud of you both." Mr. Davis smiled looking over at them.

"Thanks dad." Roger laughed putting Ava down.

"Thanks Mr. Davis." Ava smiled looking up at him with Roger's arms still around her.

"Didn't mine and Ava's song come out great?" Roger asked smiling down at Ava.

"It came out amazing." Ms. Parker smiled reaching out to hug them.

"Thanks mom." Ava smiled looking up at her.

"Ava, telephone." Ms. Parker called out at 10 am on a saturday morning.

"Thanks mom." she yelled picking up the phone as she laid in her bed. "Hello?" she said into the phone.

"Baby, I'm coming over, OK?" the voice said excitedly as Ava sat up in her bed.

"Baby? Who is this? Will?" she asked teasingly running her fingers through her hair.

"You're not funny Ava." he smiled as Ava started laughing.

"I'm sorry Roger. I guess I've been spending too much time with you and the guys, huh?" she laughed taking the blanket off of her legs.

"Yeah, apparently." he laughed sitting on the edge of his bed. "Um, I'm coming over, OK?" he asked again looking at an envelope in his hand.

"OK, just give me 5 minutes. I just woke up." she smiled swinging her legs over the side of the bed.

"OK, I love you Ava." he smiled looking at the pictures of him and Ava that were in his room.

"I love you too Roger. I'll see you in a bit." she smiled before hanging up the phone. It was 10 o'clock in the morning. Roger was never up at 10 o'clock in the morning on a saturday morning. Whatever he wanted must have been urgent. She got dressed and brushed her long blond hair. As she put it in a pony tail she heard the doorbell ring. "I got it mom. It's Roger." she yelled running down the stairs.

"Morning Baby." he smiled before leaning down to pick her up and kiss her.

"Good morning yourself. What's so important that you're up at 10 on a saturday morning?" she asked laughing holding on to him tight.

"This is." he smiled putting her down taking the white envelope out of his back pocket.

"What is this Roger?" she asked looking down at it.

"Look at the envelope." he smiled as she turned it over to see the return address. It was from Boston University.

"What does it say?" she asked looking up at him.

"I don't know, I haven't opened it. See?" he said looking down at her as she flipped the envelope over to see that it wasn't opened.

"Why didn't you open it yet?" she asked looking up at him.

"Because I wanted to open it with you." he smiled closing the door behind him and leading her into the living room.

"So let's open it." she smiled looking up at him as they sat on the couch.

"You open it. I can't. I'm too nervous." he told her rubbing his hands together.

"Are you sure?" she asked looking up at him.

"Yeah, you open it." he smiled as she tore the envelope open.

"Roger Davis, we are pleased to inform you... you're in." she yelled as he jumped up in excitement.

"Oh man. Baby, this is great. And next year when you get in, we'll be going to the same school." he shouted picking her up into his arms.

"Roger, I'm so proud of you." she smiled holding him tight.
