Ella's stomach butterflies were only intensified by the hug that she gave Iggy, and now she had to preform...so nervous! She tried not to let this show, and looked into the eyes of Angel...in moments she calmed down. "Thanks" she mouthed towards the mind manipulating girl. Then the opening notes started, and she let out her sweet voice.

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I can't help falling in love with you
Shall I say would it be a sin If I can't help falling in love with you

'Am I being foolish?' She thought as her body when on autopilot to do the dance moves memorized from long hours of analyzing the music video.'Naw...I really like him. I love him. He's a great guy, much better than the past guys I've dated. And he's not shallow, and he's cute, and he's...Iggy. He's just Iggy.' As the kareoke machine supplied the male voice that was supposed to sing with her, she imagined Iggy being the person singing with her.


Like a river flows
To the sea
So it goes
Some things are meant to be

She rejoined the music, chiming in with something she definitely believed to be true.
Some things are meant to be
Things like her and Iggy being together.

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Ella stole a nervous glance at her mother, who was sitting stunned, again. 'Poor mom'. she thought, 'being proposed to, and finding out all the kids like someone..a long day for sure...'

Wise men say only fools rush in
But I, I can't, I can't help Falling in love with you

Ella let the male voice take over, thinking as she danced, trying not to look too pointedly at Iggy.

Like a river flows (Oooh)
To the sea (Oooh)
So it goes
Some things are meant to be

As the male voice quit, Ella started up again with even more enthusiasm than before.

Some things are meant to be!

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

Ella meant it. Iggy could take her hand (in marriage in the future? Far to soon to even think about but...) and her whole life. She wouldn't mind in the slightest. She really, truly loved him. So she sang it again:

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love with you

She did a jump and a spin, glad that the modesty shorts covered anything that might show when her skirt twirled with her. She was just so happy...

Like a river flows
That's the way it goes
I just can't help fallin' in love with you

Ella knew her mom would approve, more or less, of Iggy. The flock would approve, more or less, of her. These simple thoughts made her ecstatic. 'This relationship will actually work out...YIPPEE!!!'


Like a river flows
That's the way it goes
Fallin' in love with you


Like a river flows
That's the way it goes


I can't help falling in love with you...

Her mind went blank as she let the hours of practice just take over. She didn't hear any of the words she was saying, she just stood in the stage and concentrated on one smiling face. She executed a final dance move, pointing straight out at Iggy and exclaimed:

Fallin'in love with you

She then proceeded to jump off the stage and give Iggy anunexpected kiss, full on the lips.

When the contact was broken, Iggy traced his and Ella's lips with his fingers, stunned. "I did not see that coming."
