Carters POV

I got home at midnight last night because it took me three hours to find Sadie and calm her down enough for her to hear me out. I had to promise her that I wouldn't do that again. Even after that she punched me several times.

Now at school the whole drama class is waiting for Mr. A to come and tell them what they're singing. A's sitting at the front of the class so I go to sit next to her.

"Hey," I say. She must have been zoned out because she jumps.

"Oh, hey Carter," she has a happy little smile on the face like she just heard a good joke. "You look like crap. Did you sleep at all last night?" the strange thing is that she sounds like she actually cares.

"Not really. I got into another fight with Amos, and I think I scared Sadie, it took me till after midnight to find her,"

"How'd you scare her? She seems pretty unshakable,"

"I'll... I'll tell you later, ok?" she nods.

At the same time Mr. A walks in. "Ok class, who's ready to see what you're singing?!" for some unknown reason the class thinks now is a good time to scream like they're at a rock concert. Next to me A shrinks down in her seat and shakes her head rapidly. "Ok. Settle down class," Mr. A says, "here's who's singing what part. Luke you're singing 'Who Am I' ok?" Luke nods, "for 'Master Of The House' Travis is Thenadier, Katie is madame Thenadier, and Jaz ans Julian are singing the chorus part. Felix your singing 'stars.' for 'Red and Black' Walt you're Enojas, Leo you're Marris, Annabeth and Nico your the chorus. Singing 'A Heart Full of Love' Jason as Marris, Piper as Cosset, and Reena as Eponine. You all got that?" everyone nods, "Chris I've got you singing 'Jeverts' suicide.' 'On My Own' is Rachel. Beckendorf you'll be singing 'Empty Chairs At Empty Tables,' ok? Cleo you've got 'Castle On a Cloud.' And last but certainly not least is A and Carter. You'll be singing 'The Confrontation,' A you'll be Val Jean, Carter you'll be Jevear," A gowns, "Ok everyone, you need to learn the song and you need need to choreograph it to go with the song. I'll give you some time in class to work on it but I expect you to spend a good amount of time outside of school. I'll give you some time now to talk with your group about what you'll be doing for practices. One person from each group needs to come up and get the parts," I stand to go get our parts but A beats me to it. She jogs up the stairs. She says something to Mr.A as he hands he the parts, he shakes his head and when she comes back she looks dajected.

"Why the long face?" I ask.

"I'm not sure I can sing the part,"

"Why it's not crazy low," forgetting for a moment that she's a girl.

"One; I'm a girl, two; I'm a soprano," she says quietly.

"Really?!" I say shocked, her voice isn't as deep as other guys for obvious reasons but thinking of he singing that high is almost impossible.

"Yes Carter I'm a soprano, don't look at me like I just told you that the sky is green,"

"Sorry. So what are we going to do for practice? I don't think my place would be a good idea,"

"Why, because you scared Sadie?" she asks. It's not mocking or rude, she sounds concerned.

"Yeah, that and Walt is going to kill me next time he sees me,"

"So he's a protective boyfriend?"

"Yeah- wait how'd you know he's dating Sadie?"

"Piper. She ambushed me last night with her boyfriend to interrogate me about our date. They heard from him,"

If I'm not sure that he's going to kill me I'd get back at him good. "Sorry, so about practice?"

"We can practice at my place,"

"That's where I found you after the dance, right?" she nods, "Ok, when do you want to start practicing?"

"You can come over after school, my parents are still at work until seven, we can do other homework too if you want to,"

"Thanks," I'm scared to face Sadie and every time I imagine going home Amos is on the couch ready to tell me more lies about my dad to get me to work for him.

"Ok," says Mr.A, "Remember to practice. Class dismissed!"

Walt is apparently not going to wait for me to get home to kill me. As soon as school ends he grabs me and dragged me out behind the school.

"You promised you wouldn't get that angry again!" he shouts, "She said you almost hit Amos! Did you?!" Walt hardly ever gets this angry but if anyone might try to hurt Sadie he'll kill them.

"Walt," I say trying to stay calm, "I wasn't going to hit him, and he was saying that my dad would have wanted me to work for him,"

he doesn't let me go but he loosens his grip on my shirt.

"Am I misinterpreting the situation or is your sisters boyfriend trying to beat you up, Carter?" I hear from behind Walt. He let's go of my shirt all the way and turns around.

"A!" I say, "Why are you here?"

"Well I saw Walt dragging you out here and I remembered that you said he was going to kill you so I should go rescue you. It would be hard to sing a duet with a dead man," she says like its that simple.

"I wasn't going to kill him," Walt defends, "Just scare him enough so he'll be more careful,"

"It's really great to know you think so highly of me," I say sarcastically.

"I don't really think of you at all, I just didn't want to sing a duet alone," she says offhandedly. Does she mean it or does she not want Walt to think she cares at all, "So are you going to beat him up or not?"

"I'm not going to beat him up! He's my friend!"

"I've gotten beat up by my 'friends' before. See you at my place in twenty minutes Carter!" With that she turns and walks away. I look at Walt and he shrugs and motions for me to go.
