Hi, everybody! I'm back again! I got a lot of requests asking me to update, so here I am! Good news: it'll either be finished tonight or tomorrow! If not then, then Monday at the latest! So, yay! See you at the bottom! =P
Disclaimer: No, I don't.
Silena bounded up happily to the front of the room. She picked out her song and started to sing, in a horrible tone I might add, Britney Spears. Ugh.
"There's only two types of people in the world
The ones that entertain, and the ones that observe
Well baby I'm a put-on-a-show kind of girl
Don't like the backseat; gotta be first
I'm like the ringleader, I call the shots
I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break
I'm like a performer and the dance floor is my stage
Better be ready I'll bet you feel the same
All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gonna trip just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go we can make a dance floor just like a circus
There's only two types of guys out there
Ones that can hang with me, and the ones that are scared
Well baby I hope that you came prepared
I run a tight ship, so beware
I'm like the ringleader, I call the shots
I'm like a firecracker, I make it hot
When I put on a show
I feel the adrenaline moving through my veins
Spotlight on me and I'm ready to break
I'm like a performer and the dance floor is my stage
Better be ready I'll bet you feel the same
All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gonna trip just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go we can make a dance floor just like a circus
Let's go.
Lemme see what you can do.
I'm running this... like, like, like a circus.
Yeah. Like a what?...like, like, like a circus.
All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gonna trip just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go we can make a dance floor just like a circus
All eyes on me in the center of the ring just like a circus
When I crack that whip everybody gonna trip just like a circus
Don't stand there watching me, follow me, show me what you can do
Everybody let go we can make a dance floor just like a circus."
This time, we were all shifting around uncomfortably. She was really bad. And I mean, really bad. Of course Beckendorf, being the good boyfriend that he is, was a total suck-up. "You were great! You sounded exactly like Britney Spears!" Although I could hear the false tone in his voice. Silena, though, was not the sharpest knife in the drawer, if you know what I mean. She ran and gave the son of Hephaestus a big hug. Aphrodite was proabably squeeling even more. First my mom and Paul, then me and Annabeth, and now this...And Silena was her daughter. Wow. I mean, they had already been together, but you know what I mean.
"Okay," Silena said, sitting on Beckendorf's lap. "It's your turn, Charlie." If she hadn't been his girlfriend, he proabably would've winced. Nobody called him by his first name. He was a bit too bulky.
"Whatver you say," he said, staring at Silena. They held each other's gaze for a few moments, then she hopped off his lap and onto the couch. My heart was pounding and my stomach started tying itself up in knots. Our plan was discreet, and it was almost my turn to sing. I loved Dashboard Confessional and the song, but Beckendorf and Grover had to go next. I didn't even know if I could sing. It's not like I sung in the shower or anything.
Beckendorf's music brought me back to Earth. Here we go again. Two more people, a voice in my head said.
Well, there it is. Nothing new, but can Percy sing? Psh. I'm not telling you. Although you're not gonna be surprised... R&R! =P
