"SAM!"
Sierra woke up in her bed, panting heavily.
Devin woke up to his sister's screaming and sat up in bed surprised, "Whoa!"
Sierra looked at her numerous Total Drama toys on the shelves and sighed when she realized it was just a dream.
"Sierra, are you ok, sis?," Devin asked concerned, "You're drenched in sweat. Did you have the dream again?"
"Ummm, no. Hey, so when are you guys leaving today?"
"Oh, um, just a couple hours from now," Devin checked the clock on the side table between their beds.
"Oh wow, Devin, I think it is so cool you're taking Carrie to Los Angeles. I can't believe you guys have been dating for ten years," Sierra smiled.
"I know," Devin sat up in his bed, "Yeah, she wanted to do something special for this anniversary, and she's always wanted to see Los Angeles so..."
"Hey, don't forget to send me a postcard from The Total Drama Studios."
Devin frowned, "Oh, yeah, I'm sorry. I can't do that, Sierra."
Sierra's face fell, "But, Devin..."
"...because," he held up three bus tickets, "You're coming with us!"
Sierra gasped, "Oh, Devin! B-But what about Carrie?"
"She's fine. She said the more the merrier."
"I-I don't know what to say! The Total Drama Studios are there, Devin! I can't believe this!"
Devin patted his legs, "Better get a move on. We don't wanna miss that bus!," he got up and headed for the bathroom.
"No way!," Sierra got out bed and laughed, "Who knows? Maybe Sam will be there."
"I wouldn't get your hopes up, sis," Devin called from the bathroom, "The TD Kids haven't put on a show together in years. I don't think they use the studios for anything but tours anymore."
"Nah!," Sierra walked in and climbed onto her step stool so she could see herself in the mirror, "I think that's just an Internet rumor. Like there's a country called Turkey, ha!"
"Sierra, how many times do we have to go over this? Turkey's a very real country."
Sierra didn't listen and smiled as she brushed her hair out of her face, "Wow, Total Drama Studios, I can't believe it!"
Devin and Sierra both picked up their toothbrushes and started brushing their teeth.
Devin: Everything is great
Everything is grand
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand
Sierra: Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face
Both: Life's a happy song when there's someone by my side to sing along
They both spit into the sink.
Sierra walked into the living room and looked at a Christmas picture from a few years ago.
Devin and Carrie stood together, while Sierra stood off to the side, smiling shyly.
Sierra: When you're alone, life can be a little rough
It makes you feel like you're three feet tall
Sierra struggled to reach the door handle, due to her size.
She climbed onto the desk.
When it's just you, well, times can be tough
When there's no one there to catch your fall
She jumped off and grabbed the handle. The door swung open and Sierra flew off and landed against the kitchen cabinet, "Whoa! Oof!"
The cereal box fell over and the contents poured onto her head.
Devin and Sierra walked out of the house, fully dressed.
Both: Everything is great
Everything is grand
I got the whole wide world in the palm of my hand
Everything is perfect
It's falling into place
I can't seem to wipe this smile off my face
Life smells like a rose
Sierra: With someone to paint
Devin: And someone to pose
Sierra painted a picture of Devin.
Both: Life's a piece of cake
Devin: With someone to pedal
Sierra: And someone to break!
Devin and Sierra rode a two-wheeler bike until it crashed into a tree.
Both: Life is full of glee
Sierra: With someone to saw
Devin: And someone to see
Sierra sat on a seesaw until Devin sat down too fast, "Not again!"
Both: Life's a happy song when there's someone by my side to sing along
I've got everything that I need right in front of me
Nothing's stopping me
Nothing that I can't be with you right here next to me
Baker: Life's a piece of cake
Devin: With someone to give
Sierra: And someone to...heavy cake!
Devin gave Sierra a cake, but it was so heavy she fell down.
Female Customer: Life's a piece of pie
Waiter #1: With someone to wash
Waiter #2: And someone to dry
Mechanic: Life's an easy road
Sierra caught up with Devin and hugged him.
Sierra: With someone beside you to share the load
Hippie: Life is full of highs
Chinese Woman: With someone to stir
Chinese Man: And someone to fry
Butcher: Life's a leg of lamb
Devin and Sierra: With someone there to lend a hand
Florist: Life's a bunch of flowers
Devin and Sierra: With someone to while away the hours
Devin took a bouquet of flowers from the florist and put it in his jacket.
Fish Stand Guys: Life's a fillet of fish, hey!
Devin and Sierra glanced at each other.
Devin and Sierra: Uh, yes it is!
All: Life's a happy song when there's someone by your side to sing along
Devin started dancing with the townspeople dancing in the background.
Oooh...
I've got everything that I need right in front of me
Nothing's stopping me
Nothing that I can't be with you right here next to me
Devin ran up to the front doors of Smalltown Elementary School and walked inside.
I've got everything that I need...
Devin walked into the classroom and sang loudly.
Devin: Right in front of me- -!
He stopped when he saw the students looking at him strangely.
"Sorry, I got a little excited," Devin smiled sheepishly.
Carrie came out from underneath a fake car she used to teach car repair to her students.
"Ok, Carlos. Flip the ignition," she told the boy in the driver's seat.
Carlos did as told, and the engine started.
"And that's how you fix a 12-volt starter."
RIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNG!
"Oh, you know what that means," Carrie smiled, "Spring break!"
"Awwwwww!," the class moaned.
"It's alright, we'll be back to studying in two weeks."
"Yay!"
The kids packed up their stuff and left the room.
"Bye, have fun," Carrie waved as they left.
"Have a good break, guys. Hey, great job, Carlos," Devin told the boy as he walked out the door.
"Thanks!"
Once all the kids had left, Carrie smiled and turned to her boyfriend, "Hi."
"I got you these," Devin took out the flowers from earlier, only to find some of stems and petals broken, "Oh, sorry. It's probably from the dance number I was doing."
"It's ok. They're really sweet," Carrie took them and sniffed them.
"You excited for our big trip to LA? I have our list," Devin took out a list of things for them to do on the trip.
"Me too," Carrie took out a list similar to Devin's. She nearly squealed, "Oh, this is the most romantic thing ever! I've always dreamt of seeing Los Angeles!"
"I know, Sierra can't wait either. You don't mind that she's coming, right?," Devin frowned.
Carrie looked outside her window and saw Sierra sitting at the bus stop with the bags while the townspeople who had just been dancing earlier laid on the ground, exhausted.
"Um, no no, of course not. As long as we can spend our anniversary dinner together, that's all I ask."
"Totally. It's gonna be the most romantic anniversary dinner ever," he reassured, "I love you so much."
He kissed Carrie's cheek.
"I love you too," she smiled.
"I'm gonna go check on Sierra."
After Devin left the room, Carrie looked out the window and sang softly.
Carrie: Everything's great
Everything's grand
Except Devin's always off with his sis
It's never me and him
It's always me and him and her
I wonder when it's going to end
But I guess that's ok, 'cause maybe someday...
I know just how it's going to be
He'll ride up on a steed, get down on one knee
And say, "Carrie, will you marry me?"
Carrie frowned sadly as she watched raindrops run down the window.
Please
She turned around and walked to the door, and the gardener stopped washing the window with the hose.
Carrie and Devin walked out the school, holding hands.
Carrie and Devin: I've got everything that I need right in front of me
Nothing's stopping me
Nothing that I can't be with you right here next to me
As the couple walked up to the bus stop, the townspeople danced in the background.
Townspeople: You've got everything that you need right in front of you
The bus to Los Angeles pulled up at the bus stop.
Nothing's stopping you
Nothing that you can't do that the world can throw at you
Sierra met with them just as the doors opened.
Sierra squealed and got on the bus, and Devin and Carrie followed.
Life's a happy song
Leslie Feist: When there's someone by your side to sing
Townspeople: Life's a happy song
Mickey Rooney: When there's someone by your side to sing
Townspeople: Life's a happy song when there's someone by your side to sing along!
The bus drove away just as the song ended.
"Ok, they're gone!"
Everyone collapsed in exhaustion.
