Chapter 23- The Benefit part 2
Yugi and the others were in their area for getting ready. They were all in their leather attire.
"I have to admit that I'm excited about this. We don't usually get to play concerts during the school year." Jou said.
"No kidding. I'm glad that Touma agreed to let us do this." Malik said.
Touma walked toward them. "You have ten minutes before the concert starts. Get your masks on, and get ready." Touma said.
They did as instructed and put their masks on, which covered their faces and hair, leaving it to where their eyes and mouths were showing, but nothing else on their faces showed.
"Thank you. Be ready for when your cue comes." Touma said.
"What's the cue?" Jou asked.
Touma glared at him. "Jou, did you not listen to me when I told you a week ago?" Touma asked.
"Jou, Seiji is going to introduce us. After he introduces us is when we go out." Yugi said.
"Thank you." Touma said.
"Sorry. I guess I forgot." Jou said sheepishly.
"Just be ready to go out when the time comes." Touma said before leaving.
"Yugi, I hope those songs work." Ryou said.
"Yeah. We really need to get those two talking again and together before they drive us all crazy." Heba said.
"Well, I hope that this does work because I am out of ideas." Yugi said.
Yami, Atemu, Marik, Bakura, and Seto were all making their way toward the concert area, which was already packed.
"Wow. I didn't think that it would this packed." Bakura said.
"Well, Hikari and Aibou is one of the most popular bands now, so there it is no surprise it is so packed." Atemu said.
"Where is Seiji, anyway?" Marik asked.
"He has to introduce the band." Yami answered.
They could hear what people were saying.
"I can't believe that we get to see Hikari and Aibou!"
"I know! It's great!"
"This is my favorite band! I can't wait to hear them play!"
"One day, I'm going to marry Hikari."
"I'd rather marry Aibou."
Yami and Atemu rolled their eyes.
Marik, Bakura, and Seto snickered.
The two glared at them since they knew what they were thinking.
"Come on. Let's get to the front." Marik said.
The group made their way to a private section at the front that Seiji agreed to let them watch the concert from.
"I hope that it gets started soon." Seto said.
"It'll get started soon." Yami said.
Seiji approached Touma and the boys. "Are you all ready?" Seiji asked.
"We're ready whenever you are." Yugi replied.
"Okay." Seiji said before he walked out onto the stage. "Everyone, I would like to thank you all for coming to this year's Children's Day. This year, our benefit is being done by Hikari and Aibou, so help me welcome them." Seiji said.
Everyone in the audience cheered and screamed as the five walked out onto the stage.
"Thanks, everyone. We're so glad that you came out today." Hikari said.
"Who's ready to sing?" Aibou asked.
Everyone cheered for them once again.
"Then let's get started." Snow said.
The band started to play their first song.
Hikari: Last night I had a crazy dream
A wish was granted just for me It could be for anything
I didn't ask for money
Or a mansion in Malibu
I simply wished, for one more day with you
Band: One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then again
I know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you
Aibou: First thing I'd do, is pray for time to crawl
Then I'd unplug the telephone
And keep the TV offI'd hold you every second
Say a million I love you's
That's what I'd do, with one more day with you
Band: One more day
One more time
One more sunset, maybe I'd be satisfied
But then againI know what it would do
Leave me wishing still, for one more day with you
Leave me wishing still, for one more day
Leave me wishing still, for one more day
As the last cords were played, the crowd started to cheer for them.
"Did you all like that one?" Puppy asked.
The crowd cheered against as they jumped up and down, enjoying the concert.
"All right. Let's keep on then." Hikari said.
The crowd cheered.
"Then let's go on with Should've Said No." Keeper said.
The crowd cheered as the band started up once more.
Aibou: It's strange to think the songs we used to sing, The smiles, the flowers, everything,
Is I found out about you,
Even now just looking at you,
Feels say, that you'd take it all back,
Given one chance, it was a moment of weakness,
And you said yes
Band: You should've said no,
You should've gone home,
You should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her'd, get back to I should've been there, in the back of your mind,
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
You shouldn't be begging for forgivness at my feet,
You should've said no
Baby and you might still have
Hikari: You can see that I've been cryin',
Baby you know all the right things,
To do you, honestly,
Expect me, to believe,
We could ever be the say, that the past is the past,
You need one chance, it was a moment of weakness,
And you said yes
Band: You should've said no,
You should've gone home,
You should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her'd, get back to I should've been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet,
You should've said no
Baby and you might still have me..
Hikari/Aibou: I can't resist,
Before you go tell me this,
Was it worth it,
Was she worth
Band: No, no, no, no
You should've said no,
You should've gone home,
You should have thought twice before you let it all go.
You should've known that word 'bout what you did with her'd, get back to I should've been there, in the back of your mind
Shouldn't be asking myself why,
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet,
You should've said no
Baby and you might still have me.
The crowd started to cheer even louder as the song came to an end.
"We're all glad that you liked that one. Should we continue?" Puppy asked.
The cheering was answer enough.
The band started with the next song.
Hikari: I got a funny feeling
The moment that your lips touched mine
Something shot right through me
My heart skipped a beat in time
There's a different feel about you tonight
It's got me thinkin' lots of crazy things
I even think I saw a flash of lightIt felt like electricity
Band: You shouldn't kiss me like this
Unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes
And I won't know where I'm at
We'll get lost on this dance floor
Spinnin' around
And around
And around
And around
Aibou: They're all watchin' us now
They think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this
I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again
Everybody swears we make the perfect pair
But dancing is as far as it goes
Girl you've never moved me quite
The way you moved me tonight
I just wanted you to know
I just wanted you to know
Band: You shouldn't kiss me like this
Unless you mean it like that
Cause I'll just close my eyes
And I won't know where I'm at
And We'll get lost on this dance floor
Spinnin' around
And around
And around
And around
They're all watchin' us now
They think we're falling in love
They'd never believe we're just friends
When you kiss me like this
I think you mean it like that
If you do baby kiss me again
Kiss me again
The crowd cheered as the song came to an end.
Seiji and Touma were behind the stage watching as the group played.
"Wow. They are really enjoying themselves." Seiji said.
"Yeah. They all enjoy what they do. It's the main reason I let them do this." Touma said.
"So, they don't care about the money that they make?" Seiji asked.
"Nope. They get out there and enjoy what they do. That's the important thing although I do have the rule that they have to do well in school." Touma said.
"I think it's great that they like doing this." Seiji said.
"So do I." Touma agreed.
As another son ended, the crowd started to cheer again.
"Who wants to hear a new song that we wrote?" Hikari asked.
There were a lot of yeses and screams.
'Let's hope that Seiji and Touma get the meaning of the next two songs.' Aibou thought.
"The first one is What Hurts the Most." Hikari said.
The group started to play.
Aibou: I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let them out
I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while
Even though going on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again
I pretend I'm ok
But that's not what gets me
Band: What hurts the most Was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was tryin' to do
Hikari: It's hard to deal with the pain of losing you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' It
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still Harder
Getting up, getting dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken
Band: What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
What hurts the most
Is being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
And never knowing
What could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
Not seeing that loving you
That's what I was trying to do
The crowd cheered after hearing the first new song.
"Who liked our latest song?" Keeper asked.
There were cheers from everyone as they loved the new song.
"Well, let's go on to the next song. This one is called Every Light in the House." Puppy said.
The band started to play again.
Hikari: I told you I'd leave a light on
In case you ever wanted to come back home
You smiled and said you appreciate the gesture
I took your every word to heart
'Cause I can't stand us being apart
And just to show how much I really miss ya
Band: Every light in the house is on
The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn
The front walk looks like runway lights
It's kinda like noon in the dead of night
Every light in the house is on
Just in case you ever do get tired of being gone
Every light in the house is on
Aibou: If I should ever start forgetting
I'll turn the lights off one by one
So you can see that I agree it's over
But until then I want you to know
If you look south, you'll see a glow
That's me waiting at home each night to hold ya
Band: Every light in the house is on
The backyard's bright as the crack of dawn
The front walk looks like runway lights
It's kinda like noon in the dead of night
Every light in the house is on
Just in case you ever do get tired of being gone
Every light in the house is on
The crowds cheered as the song ended.
"They are great!" Bakura said.
"No kidding." Yami agreed.
"Do you think that Seiji and Touma got the message?" Atemu asked.
"I don't know. We had better hope so." Seto said.
Seiji and Touma were stunned.
The two had gotten the message of the songs.
'Yugi. You're trying to tell me to give Seiji another chance, aren't you?' Touma thought.
'They know what we feel for each other, and they're trying to get us back together.' Seiji told himself.
The group stopped playing when the song ended.
"What did you think of it?" Aibou asked.
The crowd cheered at that. They were going crazy after hearing two such good, new songs.
"Well, how about we do She's in Love with the Boy?" Hikair asked.
The crowd started cheering, and the band started playing.
Aibou: Katie's sitting on the old front porch
Watching the chickens peck the ground
There ain't a whole lot going on tonight
In this one horse yonder, coming up the road
In a beat-up Chevy truck
Her boyfriend Tommy, he's laying on the horn
Splashing through the mud and the muck
Band: Her daddy says, "he ain't worth a lick
When it came to brains, he got the short end of the stick
"But Katie's young and man she just don't care
She'd follow Tommy anywhere
Band: She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
And even if they have to run away
She's gonna marry that boy someday
Hikari: Katie and Tommy at the drive-in movie
Parked in the very last row
They're too busy holding on to one another
To even care about the show
But later on outside the Tastee Freeze,Tommy slips something on her hand
He says, "my high school ring will have to doTill I can buy a wedding band"
Band: Her daddy says, "he ain't worth a lick
When it came to brains, he got the short end of the stick
"But Katie's young and man she just don't care
She'd follow Tommy anywhere
Band: She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
And even if they have to run away
She's gonna marry that boy someday
Hikari/Aibou: Her daddy's waiting up till half past twelve
When they come sneaking up the walk
He says, "young lady get on up to your roomWhile me and junior have a talk"
But Mama breaks in and says, "don't lose your temper
It wasn't very long ago
When you yourself was just a hay-seed plowboy
Who didn't have a row to hoe"
"My daddy said you wasn't worth a lick
When it came to brains, you had the short end of the stick
But he was wrong and honey you are too
Katie looks at Tommy like I still look at you"
Band: She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
What's meant to be will always find a way
She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
She's in love with the boy
What's meant to be will always find a way
She's gonna marry that boy 's in love with the boy....
The crowd cheered again.
The group knew that they were down to their last song.
"Who's ready to hear That's What I Get For Loving You?" Snow asked.
The group cheered.
The band started playing.
Aibou: I start every day with a smile on my face
And the feel of a kiss on my lips
When the world plays to rough I can find a healing touch
Life's never been better than this
Band: That's what I get for loving you
Heaven's right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
That's what I get for loving you
Hikari: There was a time I walked outside the lines
I only thought of myself
Then you sat me down turned my head around
Now I put you before everything else
Band: That's what I get for loving you
Heaven's right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
That's what I get for loving you
Hikari/Aibou: Love is a feeling I never knew much about
Forever's a word I never said until now
That's what I get for loving you
Heaven's right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
That's what I get for loving you
That's what I get for loving you
Heaven's right here in my hands
A dream that is real and a heart that beats true
That's what I get for loving you
As band stopped playing, the crowd started to cheer.
"Thanks for coming out to hear is tonight." Aibou said.
"Have a great night." Hikari said before they left the stage.
The crowd clapped as they cheered.
After the concert, Yami, Atemu, Marik, Bakura, and Seto all went to where they knew their boyfriends were at.
"That was great." Yami said when they found them.
"Thanks. We were hoping that we did a good job." Yugi said.
"You all did great." Bakura said.
Each of them kissed their respective boyfriends.
"All right. Knock it off."
The ten turned to see Touma and Seiji.
"It's late, so we should all go home." Seiji said.
The different groups left the area to go home.
Hope you liked it.
I don't own any of the songs.
