To all of my reviewers, please excuse my absence because I have been a little busy and couldnt update. Plus, the fact that I couldnt remember a song I wanted to do. I have decided not to do the song I wrote since it kind of does not fit the story a little well, and it is way to confusing. (even if it is self explanitory.


"So, what is your bands name?" Juliet asked helping Alex put the drums together.

"We never really decided," Chris being the leader said, "Holly was supposed to help us but she was a little busy with you folks. Thats okay though, I see why she likes to hang out with you guys."

Juliet smiled widely and replied thankfully, "Thanks, thats really nice."

"I'm a great guy as I've heard," Chris said as Joey and Jesse laughed, "Even if some girls hate who I've become."

"Do they not like your music or are they jealous of you and Holly," Juliet asked raising an eyebrow.

Alex moved down next to Chris as he replied, "I think the reason that girls dont like him is because he doesnt like girls."

Most of the guys snorted but smiled as Juliet looked confused.Only when Chris put his arm around Alex did she get it. Her mouth opened wide as she stared. He smiled and said, "Its actually a good thing though that Holly's okay with it."

"Why would that be," Juliet asked coming out of her trance.

"Because I broke up with her to go out with Alex. I think that's mostly why she doesnt really participate as a band member anymore," Chris said thinking on it, "But no matter what I love her. She is the best friend I have ever hand."

"So what instument did Holly play in the band, "Juliet asked curiously.

"Holly was a vocal," Max said walking past her to pick up more cords, "And she has an amazing voice, but now she denise it."

Juliet's mouth dropped again, but it was a little of wonder and more of thought. All of a sudden someone hit her chin making her teeth it. Holly walked in front of her giggling with a small smirk on her face. Artemis seemed unamused and went to help the guys with the electrics.

"That was so mean," Juliet said rubbing her mouth, "I'm gonna get you back for that."

"Oh really and what are you gonna do," Holly asked cocking her head to the side.

Well she asked for it, "I was actually wondering if you wanted to show us how good you and the guys were. I mean I heard you are the best part of the band."

The guys turned to look at her and some replied, "Thats a great idea, come on Holly."

She gave a death glare at Juliet as she said, "Come on Holly, I bet that your great at singing."

Artemis stood over to the side listening interested in the matter. Chris ran over grabbed Holly's arm and pulled her onto the stage. The guys started to get all the stuff set up as one of them threw a head thing over to her. She caught it only to let it hang at her side.

"I dont want to," Holly said with a grim look on her face.

"Hey Holly," Artemis said from the ground below smirking, something was up, "Maybe if your a good girl, I'll get you a lollypop."

Her mouth dropped open and she thought about throwing the head set at him. Then in second thought she replied, "You better keep you lollypop cause I deserve a lot more."

She turned around putting on the headset and murmured something to the guys. They all nodded and she came back to the front. Max went to the keyboard with a mic, Joey went to the drums, Jesse had a bass guitar with a mic, and Chris had an electric guitar with a mic. He saw Alex go into some circular thing with a lot of technology.

She waited till Juliet was looking at the door when Buler walked in. Then she winked at Artemis. His reply being a raise in his eyebrow. She smiled and turned to motion at Joey. He did a count off and they started the music. Holly started singing:

Things look clear in black and white,
The living color tends to dye dull our sight,
Like dynamite,
Just imagine my surprise,
When I looked into your eyes and saw,
Through your disquise,

Artemis was amazed. She had a great voice and couldnt understand why she didnt want to sing. Maybe she was afraid of it. One thing he did know was that her song might actually be directed to him. So he listened to the lyrics closely.

If we dare expose our hearts,
Just to feel the purest parts,
Thats when strange sensations start to grow,

We are not alone,
Find out when your covers blown,
There'll be somebody there to break your fall,
We are not alone
Cause when you cut down to the bone,
Were really not so different after all,
After all, were not alone

Juliet was very pleased with herself. The expression on Artemis face was showing obvious signs that he liked it. I mean heck, Holly was even moving to the song, DANCING, if you will. She was a little to pleased with herself cause Butler flicked her in the back of the head. Trying to stop her medaling.

Flying high above the sky,
The battles down below look simplified,
With no place to hide,
But on inspection of the dust,
We came upon this thing called trust,
It helped, us to adjust,

Just imagine my surprise,
When I looked into your eyes,
I knew right then I'd never let you go,

We are not alone,
Find out when your covers blown,
There'll be somebody there to break your fall.
We are not alone,
When you cut down to the bone,
Were really not so different after all,
We're not alone,

There was a little insturmenal inturlude and Holly decided to goof off. She danced around a little more this time just for fun. Getting a couple of giggles, she did a round-off and started to sing the end of the song.

If we dare expose our hearts,
Just to feel the purest parts,
Thats when strange sensations start to grow,

We are not alone,
You find out when your covers blown,
There'll be somebody there to break your fall,
We are not alone,
Cause when you cut down to the bone,
We're really not so different after all,

After all,
We're not alone,
Not alone,
After all,
We're not alone.

When the guys closed the song at the end she walked off the stage and came over to Juliet. She had a smile on her face. She smiled and said, "And thats how a professional takes out a bodyguard."

Juliet gapped at Holly. She did exactly what she wanted her to do, but she didnt care. Artemis walked over to them with a smile on his face. She didnt even care what could be going through his mind about her singing.

Holly just walked out of the room smiling the whole time. She knew that Juilet wanted the two of them to hook-up, but singing a song was only gonna get his intrest in on her. Holly wasnt completely an idiot when it came to liking someone. She had played matchmaker a lot, but didnt need any help now.

Artemis followed her out of the room and walked with her to the kitchen. When they got into the kitchen she started cracking up laughing. Artemis looked at her like she was from another planet. She stopped and noticed the look on Artemis face.

"She thinks that me singing will make you want to date me," Holly said jumping onto the counter top and smirking at him.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "How would you have gotten this information is beyond me."

"Its a girl thing," Holly started, "A certain look in someone's eye or something they say and do can mean something. Juliet was playing the matchmaker, get her to do something that makes him look at her and think about her. Its common knowledge to those who've done it."

"So you've played matchmaker before,hmm," Artemis said in the smart aleck voice of his, "Ever played it for yourself?"

She knew exaclty were he was going with this and cocked her head to the side, "Maybe, but I dont think its working."

"Oh come on Holly. Your a bright girl, I think you could pull off something like that, "Artemis replied walking over to her.

"Well, to prove that its working why dont you ask me out already," Holly said crossing her arms.

He stood right in front of her and looked her in the eyes. Her arms started to uncross and then he put his hand on the back of her head. He got her close enough to lean up and kiss her on the lips. His other arm slid around behind as she slid off the counter.

She wrapped her hand around the back of his neck and kissed him back. After a second a thought came to her mind that made her back away breaking the kiss. When he went to kiss her again she tried moving back more, but the counter was in the way.

"Whats the matter," Artemis asked concern in his voice.

"I cant," Holly replied with her eyes showing how confused she was.

He turned to his normal cold and heartless state, "Okay, I guess I'll talk to you later."

He turned around and started to walk away, "Wait," Holly tried but he went anyway. She turned around and leaned her head on the counter top.A single tear slid from her eye. She liked him didnt she, then why push him away. Or was the thought of him being human to much.

She thought of how it was only the fact that Chris had some power left. The shot would have killed any human and she wasnt going to let Artemis get hurt in the same way. She could care less of anything the councle thought of it. Only Kyle could kill a relationship like this.

She didnt want Artemis to die.


I know what your thinking. What the heck took her so long for such a short chapter. I was a little busy. I like this song. Its not my own its from Karla Devito, "WE ARE NOT ALONE." (the breakfast club movie)

Brizo: I think his name was Kyle. (taps chin a couple of times) Yep! I wouldnt name him Ryan, Kyle has been in my head for months before the story took place. lol

Koru-Chan: Darn those apostophies and typos, (yes I know thats mispelled) They keep attacking. ANYWHO! I love parents, they always no the worst things to say. I mean especially cause I control it but... no thats not it. lol

HollyBridgetPepperment: I love the dress.I wish I could make a picture of it and like send it to all of you. But I'm only good at making things up in stories. I get bad grades in art. I did pass this year though.
