Sorry my past updates have been so short. I have so much homework ,and so little time! (Im sure most of you can relate) So this one is a little longer. Again, there is singing in it!
I do not own PJo or Kaycie Lester(courtesy to original author), or the songs
Piper POV
After I got home, I headed straight up to my music room. Leo was sticking to his idea. So why not give in? It's not like I'm going to get a record deal or anything. I had decided to do two songs and then maybe a duet with someone. Jotting down a list of songs that are popular or that I really like, I sat down at my keyboard to narrow it down. Here were some of the songs on my list:
Kiss you by One Direction
Secrets by One Republic
Trouble by Taylor Swift
It Girl by Jason Derulo (duet with Leo?)
Who Says by Selena Gomez (duet with Katie?)
I worked out a part for Secrets (One Republic), and once I had that down I started to sing along.
I need another story
Something to get off my chest
My life gets kinda boring
Need something that I can confess
'Til all my sleeves are stained red
From all the truth that I've said
Come by it honestly I swear
Thought you saw me wink, no
I've been on the brink, so
Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
My God, amazing how we got this far
It's like we're chasing all those stars
Who's driving shiny big black cars
And every day I see the news
All the problems that we could solve
And when a situation rises
Just write it into an album
Send it straight to gold
But I don't really like my flow, no, so
Tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
Oh, got no reason, got no shame
Got no family I can blame
Just don't let me disappear
I'm a tell you everything
So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
So tell me what you want to hear
Something that will light those ears
Sick of all the insincere
So I'm gonna give all my secrets away
This time, don't need another perfect lie
Don't care if critics ever jump in line
I'm gonna give all my secrets away
All my secrets away, all my secrets away
Trailing the last note, I heard applause coming from behind me. Not again! Who was it this time? Turning slowly around, I found Will- Will! – smiling at me.
"Leo was right! You are good!" (A/N: if you want to know what she sounds like, look up Megan Nicole on youtube. This is exactly how I imagined she sounded! BTW, Megan Nicole is also the girl on the cover)
I blinked. "Oh! Um, thanks!" I blushed and looked down.
We just sat there in silence for a few seconds. Then I couldn't hold it in any longer.
"Will, what are you doing here?"
"Oh! Uh," he stuttered, "Um..."
This was interrupted by a short knock on the door. I opened it to find Leo and Katie.
"Hey guys!" I exclaimed, giving Katie a hug and Leo a peck on the lips. He slung his arm around my shoulders.
"I hope you don't mind," Katie was saying, "The front door was unlocked, so we just let ourselves in."
"Oh, that's fine!" I told her. When I looked back to Leo, he was staring at Will suspiciously.
"What are you doing here?" he said accusingly. He narrowed his eyes at me and pulled his arm away.
Will just chuckled. "Oh, don't worry. We weren't doing anything like that. I just arrived a second ago to ask Piper something, and I happened to overhear her singing."
"Oh." Leo put his arm back around me. "Is she as good as I said?"
Will smirked. "Better," was his reply.
I turned to Leo. "I was wondering if you wanted to sing one of the songs with me at the talent show."
He shrugged. "Sure."
Will cocked his head. "Are you any good?" he asked Leo.
"I guess. Pipes, you want to practice a song and let Will and Katie be the judge?"
"Okay," I agreed, pulling him over to the keyboard. I started to play a tune: Forget You by Cee Lo Green. I started to sing the beginning of the chorus, and then he joined in. Soon we were singing our hearts out. (A/N: underlined is Leo, Italics is Piper, Bold is both)
I see you driving 'round town
With the girl I love and I'm like,
Forget you!
Oo, oo, ooo
I guess the change in my pocket
Wasn't enough I'm like,
Forget you!
And forget her too!
You said, if I was richer, I'd still be with ya
Ha, now ain't that some shh? (ain't that some shh?)
And although there's pain in my chest
I still wish you the best with a...
Forget you!
Oo, oo, ooo
Yeah I'm sorry, I can't afford a Ferrari,
But that don't mean I can't get you there.
I guess he's an xbox and I'm more atari,
But the way you play your game ain't fair.
I pity the fool that falls in love with you
(Oh she's a gold digger, Just thought you should know)
Ooooooh
I've got some news for you
Yeah go run and tell your little boyfriend
[Chorus]
Now I know, that I had to borrow,
Beg and steal and lie and cheat.
Trying to keep ya, trying to please ya.
'Cause being in love with you ain't cheap.
I pity the fool that falls in love with you
(Oh she's a gold digger, Just thought you should know)
Ooooooh
I've got some news for you
Ooh, go run and tell your little boyfriend
[Chorus]
Now baby, baby, tell me
Why d'youwannawanna hurt me so bad?
(So bad, so bad, so bad)
I tried to tell my momma but she told me
"This is one for your dad"
(Your dad, your dad, your dad)
Why? Whyyy?Whyyy, yeah! I love you!
I still love you. Oooh!
[Chorus]
When we finished, the room was silent. Then Katie started to clap so loud that my eardrums almost burst. Will was staring wide-eyed at us, and he started to whistle.
Leo grinned at me. "Okay. We are definitely doing a duet for the talent show."
"Ya think?" was Katie's comment.
