Bubbles P.O.V.
Butch, Boomer, and Brick gaped, amazement lightening thier eyes.
"Holy shit." Brick whispered.
"That was... wow." Boomer told us.
"You guys can really play." Butch complimented.
I blushed, "Thanks. Now its your turn."
"Boomer, you first!" Butch and Brick chorused.
He groaned in annoyance, but trudged towards the stage. He tapped the mic, causing that awful ringing sound to fill the room.
Which was so cliche, I couldn't help but giggle. He winked at me and I blushed.
"Can you just sing already." Tyler growled.
Boomer rolled his eyes, but started.
"I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember
The people we used to be
It's even harder to picture
That you're not here next to me
You say it's too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
And in our time that you wasted
All of our bridges burned down
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
You turned your back on tomorrow
Cause you forgot yesterday
I gave you my love to borrow
But just gave it away
You can't expect me to be fine
I don't expect you to care
I know I've said it before
But all of our bridges burned down
I've wasted my nights
You turned out the lights
Now I'm paralyzed
Still stuck in that time when we called it love
But even the sun sets in paradise
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
Now I'm at a payphone
Now baby don't hang up
So I can tell you what you need to know
Baby I'm begging you just please don't go
So I can tell you what you need to know
I'm at a payphone trying to call home
All of my change I spent on you
Where have the times gone
Baby it's all wrong, where are the plans we made for two?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song I'll be sick
Now I'm at a payphone"
Everyone clapped except for Tyler and Boomer's brothers.
"Oh my gosh! That was amazing!" I chirped, wide eyed.
He smirked, "I know."
Tyler scoffed, "He's too cocky."
I grimaced, "Tyler, he's supposed to be."
Tyler glared at nothing in particular as Mitch rolled his eyes, "Yeah, that was pretty good, but we're going to have to hear the rest of you."
"Whatever you say boss man." Robin teased.
Mitch pretended to scowl at her, "That is Mr. Boss man to you!"
I looked around the room, "Hey, where did Brick and Butch go?"
Boomer smiled sheepishly, "Oh, they can't sing for shit. They were counting on you guys bombing."
"So where did they go?!" Buttercup demanded.
Boomer chuckled, "They snuck out while I was singing."
Robin sighed, heart broken, "I guess were stuck with him."
Boomer smiled at me, "Can I get a victory kiss?"
I blew him a kiss and he mock glared, "Tease."
"Flirt." I accused.
"Soul mates!" Robin sang.
I scoffed, "In his dreams."
"Every night." He responded.
"As cute as you two are, we have work to do." Mitch said.
"Oh yeah! Okay, so I've been working on a few songs that Boomer and I could sing, and I think I have a pretty good idea for the sound."
Mitch nodded, "We can work on the music tomorrow. Right now, we need to get in touch with Ben. Unfortunately, he never gave us his number."
I looked at my shoes, "Um, I have it."
I unfolded the piece of paper, that was in my purse and gave it to Mitch.
He groaned, "Honestly Bubbles, you really need to stop looking so tempting."
I put a hand to my chest and fluttered my eye lashes, "Mwah? Tempting? I have never once in my life tried to be tempting."
Tyler gave me a dull look, "Bull shit."
I gasped, "I'm being serious! The one guy I try to flirt with, completely overlooks me!"
Robin laughed, "Bubbles actually likes someone?! Who?"
"Oh, it's-" Buttercup started, but I cut her off.
"Nobody! It's nobody!"
Buttercup grinned wickedly, "Mitch."
I screamed and charged at her. She ran away from me laughing evily as Mitch looked as if someone had slapped him.
"You like Mitch?!" Tyler thundered, charging at him.
Mitch started screaming and running away as Robin and Boomer exchanged a look.
"Why not?" Boomer shrugged, charging at Robin.
She giggled and ran away from him as I finally caught up with Buttercup.
"Why did you do that!?" I shrieked.
She laughed, "Pay back for keeping your dancing job a secret!"
I growled at her and sat down. Everyone stopped chasing each other and everything was calming down a bit. Mitch put an arm around me causing me to blush.
"Well this has been an amazing day for me, I don't know about you guys." He grinned.
I glared at him, "You are not going to let me live this down, are you?"
He laughed, "Not a chance."
Tyler seemed extremely pissed off for some reason.
"What's wrong Tyler?" I asked him, walking over.
"Really Bubbles, are you blind?" Boomer asked me.
"I'm pretty sure I'd know if I was." I told him.
He scoffed, "This is almost sad."
"Boomer don't!" Robin said sternly.
"So everyone here knows?!" Boomer asked.
"Knows what?" I demanded, getting a little irritated.
"Don't worry about it. Boomer it's none of your business!" Buttercup growled.
"How does she not know?!" Boomer exclaimed.
"KNOW WHAT?!" I screamed.
"Nothing." Mitch said, glaring at Boomer.
I huffed, "Fine! Keep secrets, I hope you enjoy lying to me!"
I stormed out, slamming the auditorium door behind me. I started walking down the side walk muttering angrily to myself.
I looked around me, trying to see where I was. When I didn't recognize the area, I tried to force down the tears swimming in my eyes. Ugh, why did it have to be raining?
It was a ghost town, where ever I was and I was already panicking when I remembered what Mike had said.
No, I'll wait 'till she's alone, scared, and oh so vulnerable.
I started running up the sidewalk, desperate to find something farmilliar.
"Bubbles?" Someone asked from behind me.
I shrieked and pushed myself to run faster, but he caught my arm.
"Please don't!" I screamed, but as I opened my eyes I realized it was Jack.
I just about melted with relief as I hugged him.
"What are you doing out here? Its almost midnight!" He told me, worry coloring his tone.
Dang, it had only been six when I started walking.
"Um, I got lost."
He held out his hand, "Come on. You can sleep at my place tonight."
I smiled greatfully and took his hand.
