Everyone was backstage and Tammy was fixing to go out and sing. The lights in the room dimmed and a hush fell over the crowed. Tammy turned around, and for the first time she actually looked nervous.
Hikaru laid a hand on her right shoulder and Kaoru laid a hand on her left; they looked her in the eyes. "You can do it," they assured her.
"You look great," Hikaru commented.
"And you have an amazing voice," Kaoru smiled, putting her head set on.
"Go and make us proud," they smiled at her and Tammy smiled back. She mouthed thanks, and hugged them at the same time. She blushed and walked to center stage, leaving the boys blushing as well.
"Hello! My name is Tamare Fujioka; Haruhi's cousin! But everyone please call me Tammy! I know that's considered a girl's nickname, but in France its boy or girl. I'm going to start off the concert by singing an American song; Twilight by Vanessa Carlton and Tamaki-sempai will be playing the piano in this piece," Tammy smiled; she was confident.
Clapping began. Tamaki walked out to the piano on the stage and started to play. No one knew that he would be playing the piano for this song, except Tammy and Tamaki, hiself.
"I saw stained with a role, in a day, not my own, but as you walked into my life, you showed what needed to be shown," she began the song flawlessly. She started with her eyes shut. Her voice sounded beautiful, but none could tell she was a girl.
"I always knew what was right, I just didn't know that I might, peel away and choose to see with such a different sight," she paused and waited for the chorus. She opened her eyes as she started the chorus and saw that everyone in the room was captivated by her voice, and it was as everyone was hypnotized.
"And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach to high, 'cause I've seen, 'cause I've seen, Twilight," She looked over to the other Hosts, that stood at the edge of the stage. Haruhi was smiling brightly. The Honey and Mori were smiling and were hypnotized; for this was the first time they'd heard her sing. Kyouya was smiling, though he'd heard her before when they sang together. The Twins were captivated and jaw dropped. Tammy looked back at Tamaki, he had a sad smile upon his lips, and tears in his eyes as he gaze at Tammy.
Tammy smiled at all of them and looked back over the audience. The boys stared at her, unbelieving and the girls stood on edge staring at her lovingly. Tammy watched over at everyone as the instrumental played through. She closed her eyes and listened to the music.
"Never cared, Never wanted, never sought to see what flaunted, so on purpose, so in my face, couldn't see beyond my own place, and it was so easy not to behold what I could hold, but you taught me I could change whatever came within these shallow days," another small pause and she opened her eyes for the chorus.
"And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach to high, 'cause I've seen, 'cause I've seen…" she stopped and closed her eyes. She tilted her head up and sung outward. "As the sun shines through it pushes away, and pushes ahead. It fills the warmth of blue, and leaves a chill instead and I didn't know that I could be so blind to all that is real, but as illusion dies, I see there is so much to be revealed," she hit every note perfectly and when she opened her eyes for the chorus the whole audience had leaned in slightly to get closer to her.
"And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach to high, 'cause I've seen, 'cause I've seen, Twilight," she sung once more and she closed her eyes for the piano instrumental. "I saw stained with a role, in a day, not my own, but as you walked into my life, you showed what needed to be shown," she began again. "I always knew what was right; I just didn't know that I might, peel away and choose to see with such a different sight."
She opened her eyes one last time for the chorus and this time she sung with the most emotion she had. "And I will never see the sky the same way and I will learn to say goodbye to yesterday and I will never cease to fly if held down and I will always reach to high, 'cause I've seen, 'cause I've seen, Twilight."
A roar of clapping resonated throughout the auditorium, and Tammy bowed. Tammy walked back to Tamaki. Tamaki stood up and Tammy took his hand and they bowed together. Then Tamaki left the stage.
"Ok, next up is Mori-sempai and Honey-sempai singing an American song; Summer Love by Justin Timberlake," clapping took over the air and Tammy left the stage. Mori and Honey took her place at center stage.
Mori stood to the side his head down and Honey doing the same on the other side or Mori. Mori started. "Ridin' in the drop top with the top down. Saw you switchin' lanes, girl," Mori started the mini rap, song doing a small, clever dance with Honey. They moved at the same time. They did the dance like the one in the music video. They moved their feet along with the beat and arms as well. They did the dance along with the singing and it was obviously impressing that they could dance like that and the Mori could rap. "Pull up to the red light, looking right. Come here, let me get your name, girl. Tell me where you from, what you do, what you like. Let me pick your brain, girl," They did the dance perfectly. They kept straight faces, which was impressing the crowd how Honey could do that. Honey kept his head down the entire time, looking straight at the floor; he knew what he was doing.
"And tell me how they got that pretty little face, on that pretty little frame, girl," Honey joined in on that verse with Mori. The girls in the crowed squealed when Honey looked up and joined and they watched in anticipation.
"But let me show you 'round, let me take you out. Bet you we could have some fun, girl," it was back to just Mori, and Honey looked back at the floor again. Honey looked back up. "'Cause we can do it fast," Mori sung, and Honey repeated the fast as if to echo Mori. "slow, whichever way you wanna run, girl. But let me buy you drinks, better yet rings. Do it how you want it done, girl. And who would've thought that you could be the one, 'cause I," Mori dropped off. And Honey began singing with him.
"I can't wait to fall in Love, with you. You can't wait to fall in Love, with me. This just can't be Summer Love, you'll see," They sung together.
Then Mori spelled out the word 'Love' in the background, while honey sung, "This just can't be Summer Love." Then Honey put his face back to the ground and Mori started to sing once more, while they danced.
"Come on and lemme show you 'round, let me take you out, bet you we could have some fun, girl. 'Cause we can dress it up, we can dress it down. Anyway you want it done, girl. Or we can stay hone, talking' on the phone, rappin' 'til we see the sun, girl," Mori rapped perfectly.
Then Honey joined Mori, lifting his head up, "Do what I gotta do, just gotta show you that I'm the one girl," then he put his head back down and dropped out.
"Well I'mma freak you right, each and every night, I know how to do it insane, girl. 'Cause I can make it hot, make it stop. Make you wanna say my name, girl. Come on baby please, 'cause I'm on my knees. Can't get you off my brain, girl," Mori sang perfectly. It was obvious to the other Hosts' that Honey and Mori had seen the music video and practiced all the time. They were all shocked to hear the usually silent boy, rap.
"But who would've thought that you could be the one 'cause I," Honey and Mori sang together. "I can't wait to fall in Love, with you. You can't wait to fall in Love, with me. This just can't be Summer Love, you'll see," they sang together.
Then Mori spelled the word 'Love' in the background again, while Honey sang, "This just can't be Summer Love." Then they repeated the chorus again.
Then Mori let his head hang and he looked to the ground while Honey sang. "The summer's over for the both of us. But that doesn't mean we should give up on Love," Honey sang professionally. The girls in the audience squealed over him. "You're the one I've been thinking of, and I knew the day I met you, you'd be the one," Honey sang. The music stopped suddenly and Honey went on. "Oh!" then the music started up again.
Mori and Honey sang the chorus together, "I can't wait to fall in Love, with you. You can't wait to fall in Love, with me. This just can't be Summer Love, you'll see. This just can't be Summer Love. 'Cause I can't wait to fall in Love, with you. You can't wait to fall in Love, with me. This just can't be Summer Love, you'll see. This just can't be Summer Love, you'll see," then the music stopped and so did they. The crowd went wild and they took a bow.
In the crowed there was a few "I love you!"'s, then Honey left the stage and was replaced by Tamaki.
Tammy went back out to the Stage.
