May's POV

"m-mom, d-dad," I couldn't believe it. My parents were standing in the doorway of my dorm which I'm not supposed to be in. Seeing the room I'm not supposed to be living in. Seeing the boys that I am not supposed to be living with. And worst of all, the giant mess on me because of the guys' stupid prank! This is where my whole life just gets complicated...actually, scratch that. This is where my whole life gets ruined...ya that's a better word for it.

My dad didn't say a thing; he just looked at me with his strict look. My mom looked at me with disappointment and Cynthia looked at all of us with sad eyes. I knew what this meant, I didn't want to know, but I knew. This would be the end of my life here at the school. And if this was my last time here, the girls would be gone too. All our hopes just crushed like that. All because I had to go against my parents and come to this school.

"Where is your room?" I snapped out of my thoughts of depression and looked at my dad who had actually broken the silence. I sighed and pointed at the hall where all the bedrooms were, as well as the mess from the pranks.

"Second door on the left." I dropped my head as he headed towards my bedroom, my mother following right behind him. Cynthia on the other hand walked up to me. She didn't say a word but gave me a reassuring look before turning to all of the others.

"I think that it would be best if you girls had showers then left the dorm for a bit with the boys. We will try to sort this out in the meantime. So quick shower, and then leave. You can talk to May once you get back and we now what will be going on." everyone was quick to agree. They all left to their rooms to make themselves presentable for going outside. I on the other hand went with Cynthia to my room.

I walked in behind Cynthia to see my mother blocking the electric keyboard from my dad. Great, trying to break everything, a typical dad move when he is angry. I looked around to see the things taken off my dresser and my desk. I saw them all on the bed beside my red suitcase. Yup, that's just like dad to try and keep me away from what I want to do.

"Excuse me, Mr. and Mrs. Maple, I think that it would be best if you spoke to May about this before doing anything serious." Cynthia spoke in a calm voice, clearly trying to reason with them...well actually it seemed mostly like my dad; my mom looked to be defending me...sort of.

"May, sit down." My dad said sternly, he gestured at the bed that was sopping wet because of the ice water that was dumped on me this morning. I was about to walk over then I realized, well he can't get mad at me anymore.

"I would rather not, it's wet. The guys pulled a prank on us last night got water dumped on us and it made the bed really wet. So, um, I'll sit on the chair." I walked over to the desk and sat down in the spinning chair turning around to face my parents and Cynthia.

"I'm disappointed in you. I told you I didn't want you to come here and you disobeyed my orders. All of you, your aunt, uncle, Ruby, and especially you. You were supposed to run the gym for me once I retire, now I'm not even letting you do that. You mother wanted you to be a model, that is no longer happening now either." My dad looked at the ground. He couldn't even look at me now, seriously it's not like I did something horrible I mean I just...wait that's a good point to bring up.

"Now honey, I never agreed to not letting her be a model. I still have hope for her and just for this she shouldn't keep her beauty locked away." My mother stood next to him looking at him with a serious look now. And of course, there is me with the slight amount of blush on my face.

My dad opened his mouth to speak again, but I stood up from the seat. I got a look from my parents that told me to sit back down, but Cynthia had a slight smile that only I could see. "First thing is first, mom I don't see that beauty right now, I mean I'm covered in mud, thanks to Drew most likely. Second I don't know how many times I have told you this but I don't want to be a gym leader, Max on the other hand can't wait until you retire because it's his dream. Third, by coming here I didn't do anything wrong really. I mean you left me with auntie and Uncle Ben. They wanted me to come here, I wanted to come here. Only the best get in and your career can just take off!" I said the last part enthusiastically, remembering the first time the girls and I watched the video about the school on ChatBox. "All I did was follow my heart, the thing that everyone does to get to follow their dreams." Oh I own this little speech. "Dad it was your dream to be a gym leader and mom it was your dream to become a model. You both followed your hearts why won't you let me follow mine?" if they said they were taking me home still, I don't know what was going through their minds.

"May sweetie, we understand that," my mom said sweetly as she put her hands on my shoulders. "Well at least I do, it's just that you did disobey our orders, and you need to be punished somehow. And well, taking you home is the only way."

"But that is affecting the rest of the band as well!" I shrieked, they didn't understand taking me away broke apart the band meaning we couldn't continue unless we are together.

"that is true, if you take May out of school the other girls would have to leave too, they made it as a band and it wouldn't be right letting them stay if they weren't a band." Cynthia spoke as she stepped forwards.

Upon hearing that my parents looked at each other, it looked as though they were reading each other's minds. Mind you they probably were because they know each other so well; I mean they have been married for like what 21 years. "We will need to reconsider it then. It is still very likely that you are coming home though May." My father told me with his serious tone still.

Cynthia's face lit up, "since next week is Christmas break how about you stay here and think about it. There is a spare room available by my office and if you feel that you still need to take May home you take her home when everyone would be going home anyways." Wow, she is a genius. This gives us one last performance here if everything goes south.

"Thank you Ms. Cynthia, that is fair enough. We will accept your offer; we can give May one week to try to prove she should stay here." My dad told her, calmed down now. Cynthia nodded an okay at him then I realized something, my aunt and uncle have been covering for me this whole time.

"Wait mom, dad, how did you even find out that I was here?" I asked them, my mom giggled a bit.

"Max saw a video on ChatBox, is it? but it was a video of you girls preforming, he thought that it was just something from in town but your father and I couldn't tell where it was then we read the title of the videos title and it had the schools name on there." My mother told me in her sweet voice making a few giggles here and there. Of course someone would put our performance online.

"Oh, I see, I should probably get all of this mud off me now and then go kill Drew for doing this. You should go tell Max that you'll be staying here for the week I suppose." The adults in my room nodded and left the room. I decided to put everything back on my dresser and desk first, before my shower.

As I was putting everything back where it belonged I noticed that I had a collection of roses that were on my dresser I guess...they weren't there last night when I had gone to bed. I took a closer look at them and saw a note attached to the bow that held the bunch of roses together. Got 'cha – DH. Oh I am so going to kill him once I get out of the shower.

Meanwhile with the others
Leaf's POV

After a half hour in the shower getting all this damn garbage off of me, I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body. I stepped out of my bathroom and noticed someone about to leave my room. There is only one person with hair that spiked. "Gary!" he stopped dead in his tracks and turned around slowly knowing he'd been caught. "What are you doing?"

He rubbed the back of his neck and wasn't answering me. I gave him a stern look and he looked a bit nervous, "heh, I was just getting my phone I forgot it in here last night." He started slowly backing away and out of my door, as if he was trying to escape something.

Once he was out the door and had closed the door behind him I realized; he wasn't in my room last night hanging out. God damn idiot forgot it well setting up the stupid prank. I shook the thought of how stupid my boyfriend could be and got dressed to get out of the dorm like Cynthia told us to do. I threw on a pair of dark washed skinny jeans and a white of the shoulder shirt that said 'go green' in leaves. Heh, Leaf Green wearing a green shirt with leaves...it's kinda funny when you think about it...I guess. I slid on my brown Uggs, grabbing my brown shoulder bag and black leather jacket as I walked out my bed room door.

In the living room were the guys and Misty; Iris and Dawn must still be getting the oil and paint out of their hair. The guys were dressed pretty casual, all wearing jeans, a pair of skate shoes or high tops. The only big difference in their outfits was the jackets. Ash had on a blue vest over a heavy white sweater, Drew wore a black leather jacket with a purple strip across the chest, Paul had on his favourite heavy sweater, black with a skull print on the back. Gary had a simple, short, black trench coat. And Cilan had on the thickest possible white winter coat, along with a white hat atop his head. it was quite funny to see him like that, he hated the cold and we all knew it, every time he would come in the dorm after being outside we heard him saying how much he hated the cold for a good hour.

Misty stood up; she had on a baby blue sweater and white vest, with fingerless gloves that had a little fake fur around her knuckles. She had on light blue skinny jeans and a pair of cream colored boots that were folded over to have the fluffy part showing. "I still can't get all of this stupid glitter out of my hair, I looked closer at her hair tied into her usual side ponytail and saw the glitter and sequences still in her hair. Damn, Ash did a good job at getting that to stay in. well it is was most likely Ash at least.

I was about to respond when three adults emerged from May's room. I thought it was best to stay silent. "She has one week to prove herself to stay here." Her dad told us as they left the room. I have never seen him so strict before, this really must have ticked him off. May will tell us what happened later on I guess. Just after May's parents and Cynthia left the dorm Dawn and Iris came out of their rooms, wearing almost the same thing as Misty, except without the fingerless gloves and fluffy boots. Iris had a pale pink sweater and cream coloured vest, which was the same colour of the ankle boots she wore. And Dawn wore a bright pink sweater with a purple vest and hot pink, heeled boots that went to her mid-calf.

We were just about to leave when Drew stopped walking causing the rest of us to not be able to get out the door. He felt his pockets and then turned around, "I forgot my phone I'll catch up to you guys at the café." Yup, the café best in town, our destination since May might need time to figure some stuff out alone and it is the perfect day to go there. We left as Drew headed back to his room to get his phone.

Drew's POV

I am such an idiot! How do I manage to forget that my phone was filming the prank this morning? I told the others I forgot my phone and headed towards May's bedroom. I pushed my head up against the door to see if I could hear her. All I heard was the shower, perfect, I opened the door slowly and went to the corner to grab my phone. I stood up on the desk's chair and reached towards the shelf in the top corner of the room. Ahah, my phone, I picked it up and stepped off the chair.

Once I stepped down I heard the shower turn off. I quickly made my way to the door closing it quietly so May couldn't hear it. I looked at the video and watched it as I left the dorm...the video was still recoding May's room as her parents talked to her. This might just help us keep her here. I put my phone in my pocket and ran to the café so I could show the video to my roommates. The chance this video can help is shining light on this situation. That light is our hope for May to stay here, we can only hope that light is an angel's light.

Well if you haven't guessed or checked the results of the poll Angel's Light won the name for the girls' band! Which pretty much set the last half the chapter up so thank you to those who voted.

Review please. And I will see you next time I update!
