I know I said that there shouldn't be many songfic chapters and I promise after this one there will only be one or two more for this series.
This chapter will be in both Sam and Jakes point of view.
Chapter 8
The Friday night before prom the Elys decided to have a bon fire/dance at the Three Ponies Ranch. Jen had rode over to River Bend Ranch after school and we were getting ready. The plan was that we would ride over to the Three Ponies Ranch, party till eleven thirty, be home before midnight, like my dad had told me I had to be, go to sleep, get up and get ready for prom the next night. I had chosen to where a pair of low hip-hugger wash out jeans with an emerald green tube top, and to conceal them from my father I pulled on an old jean jacket and would button it up before heading down stares. Jen was wearing a pair of low rise white jeans with a light blue tank top belly shirt she too grabbed a jean jacket to hide this from my dad as well. As for make-up I had chosen a dark green eye shadow with a small amount of 'kiss me please' pink lipstick, as for Jen I ended up doing her make up too, for her though I went with a sterling silver eye shadow and the same lipstick as I had on. We both took a last look in the mirror before heading down the stares. We both pulled on our boots and grabbed our hats.
"Wow" Jen said when she saw the new hat Jake had bought me.
"What?"
"Nice hat." She said. Admiring it.
"Thanks Jake gave it to me and my dad, Bryanna, and Gram got me a new saddle and bridle."
"And you didn't tell me?" Jen asked incredulously.
"I kind of forgot." I said meekly.
"Ok lets go check with the adults so we can go." we both ran into the living room.
"So?"
"You both look beautiful." Gram said from her rocking chair.
"Dad?"
"You look lovely dear."
"Ok we're going to head out now see you tomorrow."
"Just be back before midnight Samantha."
"We will be dad."
we walked out to the barn and tacked up their horses before mounting and heading toward Three Ponies Ranch.
When we got there the party had already started.
"Yo Sammy!" I heard some one yell as I dismounted. Suddenly I felt a pair of hands grip my waist and lower me to the ground. I turned to find Quinn standing right behind me, and behind him I counted three more Elys.
"What do you guys want and or need?" I said turning back to unsaddle Ace.
"Oh don't worry about that we'll get him." Bryan said coming forward and grabbing Ace's reins.
"I know how to take care of my own horse" I said before realizing that they had surrounded me and that Jen was standing a couple feet away with Darrell totally oblivious to what was happening.
"Sammy we only want you to do one itsy bitsy thing." Nate said slowly closing in on me from his place to my right.
I opened my mouth to scream when four hands slapped down on my mouth. Suddenly I was air born and realized that they were carrying me to the barn. AS soon as we got there they set me down and slowly all pulled their hands away from my mouth.
"You do realize that I should kick the crap out of all of you right hear and right know?" I said looking at them wearily.
"Yes and we're begging that you won't and that'll listen to us." Adam said lightly.
"What do you want?" I pleaded.
"For you to sing us all a song." Quinn said.
"I…I don't sing." I said shaking my head.
"Yes you do we've all heard you singing to the horses and now we're just asking you to sing for us." Bryan said matter-of-factly.
"If I humiliate myself out there and sing will you guys leave me a lone for the rest of the night?"
"Yes" all four answered in unison.
"All right all right I'll do it." I said trying to escape.
"Great Darrell has a microphone and sound system all set up all you have to do is tell him what song and sing your heart out." Nate said leading me back out of the barn.
"You know if you guys hadn't ganged up on me there is no way that I would be doing this?"
"Yes that's why we did all gang up on you, we knew we would get our way." Adam said walking beside me. That's when I noticed that once again they were slowly ushering me somewhere. I noticed that we were headed to the porch.
"Can I at least go say hi to Jake and Darrel before you publicly humiliate me?"
They all looked at each other as if asking if it would be safe. "Fine." They said with pouts.
I ducked and ran toward Jake where he sat by the fire. When I sat down I felt him put his arm around my shoulders. I set my head on his shoulder and sighed contently.
"Are you cold?" he asked looking down at me.
"What," then I remembered the jacket, "no hold on." I stood up and quickly took the jacket off.
"COME ON SAM!" I heard the rest of the Elys call.
Sam hung her head in defeat, "I'll be back." She said grumpily to Jake.
"Where are you going?" he asked suddenly on his feet.
"Let's just say that your brothers can be pretty intimidating when you're stuck alone with them in a barn by yourself."
"What are they making you do?" he said protectively.
"You'll see." She said walking to where Darrel was with the stereo. Sam stopped for a minute. "Hey Jerk number 3 were did you put my tack?"
"On the stall that I stuck Ace in."
I walked to the barn and opened one of my saddlebags. When I found the CD I wanted I walked back to the stereo, pushed Darrell out of the way opened the CD portion slipped in the CD and put on number 5.
"And now we have our very own Samantha Ann Forester sing us a lovely song." I heard one of the jerks say.
I walked out and grabbed the mike. " Before I start I just want to say that I hate you, you, you, and you." I said pointing to the four brothers who looked hurt at the speech. I smiled sweetly. "Lets get this done." I walked to the center of the porch that was serving as my stage. I hit the key as soon as the first line blasted out of the speakers:
Uh oh
There you go again talking cinematic
Yeah you!
You're charming, got everybody star struck.
I know
How you always seem to go
For the obvious instead of me
But get a ticket and you'll see
I walked to the steps of the porch so I could more easily scan the faces of my audience.
If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play that happy song
Instantly I found who I was looking for.
(Yeah)
Yeah, yeah
When you call me
I can hear it in your voice
Oh sure!
Wanna see me
And tell me all about her
La la
I'll be acting through my tears
I guess you'll never know
That I should win
An Oscar for this scene I'm in
Jakes POV
When she started singing I felt all the breath rush from my body. Her voice was sweet yet had a slight touch of sass as she stood on the porch and sang. I was surprised with the song that she had picked. But as the words swirled around me in her voice I could feel myself lost to her.
If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play that happy song
This was the happiest song I had ever heard and if it was her singing I would listen till my heart stopped beating in my chest.
Wish I could tell you there's a twist
Some kind of hero in disguise
And we're together
It's for real
Now playing
Wish I could tell you there's a kiss
Like something more than in my mind
I see it
Could be amazing
I watched as she started to get into the song. Her hips slowly swaying back and forth in the tight low rise jeans she had on. I had never felt this way before in my life and I never wanted it to stop.
If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with

Amazing. We could be amazing and I knew at that time that their was no one else I would ever want to be with.
If we were a movie
You'd be the right guy
And I'd be the best friend
You'd fall in love with
In the end we'd be laughing
Watching the sunset
Fade to black
Show the names
Play that happy song
As her voice softened as the music died and with it so did my heartbeat. Before I knew what I was doing I pulled her into my arms and kissed her.

Sam's POV
As his lips crushed down on mine I felt my heart soar. I wrapped my arms around his neck and let my body relax into his. When he pulled back I wanted to protest, until I heard the applause. I looked over to find friends staring and clapping. I putt my head down to hide the blush.
"About time you two." I heard Darrell yell from where he was starting more music. I felt Jake's arm wrap around my waist as I slowly lowered my arms from his neck. We all headed toward the bonfire when Jens song and mine came on. We looked at each other and quickly pulled ourselves away from our guys.
When we got in the open we started dancing without thought.
Jake's POV
I had never seen any one dance like Sam was with Jen.
I come home in the morning light
My mother says when you gonna live your life right
Oh mother dear we're not the fortunate ones
And girls just want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
With out thought we all made a circle around the two girls.
The phone rings in the middle of the night
My father yells what you gonna do with your life
Oh daddy dear you know you're still number one
But girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have--
I felt my heart give a jump when she grabbed me and pulled me in to dance with her. It wasn't as up beat as what we had danced to in the barn but still she was great. As she moved her way around me I couldn't help but be hypnotized by the way her hips moved in such an easy way.
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls-- they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun
Sam's POV
Has I danced with Jake I felt his arm come around my waist and I felt him start to move with me. I looked up into those deep brown eyes and completely lost myself to them.
Some boys take a beautiful girl
And hide her away from the rest of the world
I want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have
When the song ended every one who had danced was out of breath and laughing. The audience gave what they thought to be the proper amount of applause, but I didn't care. I was to caught up with the god that was in front of me.
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Girls--they want to have fun
Oh girls just want to have fun,
They want to have fun,
They want to have fun...
