Let Me Hold You
chapter 19
Hey all. I seriously haven't updated this story in like some years. For awhile I forgot about it and was focusing my attention on other stories and for awhile I just wanted to read and didn't feel like doing any writing. But here I am with a new chapter for you all to read. I know some of you will be happy. And sorry if it's not what you are expecting it to be.
and you may see, I'm going in another direction with Bianca's song choice.
Opening night of the talent show. I was nervous and excited. I just wanted to get it over with. I was extra nervous since I hadn't seen my little green alien for a couple of days. I was so busy with focusing my attention on what I was doing with the talent show I didn't have much time to focus on him. I know that may sound bad, but I wanted the song to be right just for him. It may seem weird, but I had really grown attached to him.
"Everyone, I hope we are all ready. It's almost time to begin." Ms. Kate was behind the whole set up and made sure that things were suppose to go smoothly tonight.
"Terri, you're first. Come along. The rest of you, five minutes!"
"Are you nervous," asked some girl I had only seen twice. She wasn't in my class and I think she was a year younger than me.
"Yeah, just a little." Lies, I felt like I was going to piss myself. I looked at the hula hoop in her and. She was wearing a gold leotard with some purple design around the neck.
"Are you doing some acrobat type stuff?" She gave a loud chuckle and a snort.
"Um no. I'm the best at twirling this thing around my neck. I've done it up to five hours non stop. I'm looking to break the record tonight."
"Uh, good luck with that," I said walking away. Obviously something was wrong with her.
"Scared Membrane?" I looked over to see Bianta standing there with her arms cross like some kind of sad thug you saw in a cartoon.
"Just because you're feeling scared doesn't mean I am."
"As if," she huffed. Music started playing really loud. Terri must have started her turn. I really did hope she did well. I wasn't looking to win anymore, I just wanted to perform and go home.
"I've got the perfect song."
"Is that so? Good for you. Why don't you go rub it in someone else's face." She laughed so hard that tears were coming out of her eyes. What the hell is wrong with her.
"I got it from someone in this little talent competition." A loud cry broke over the song. I saw Terri run from the stage crying. "Probably too much for her. She must suck ass."
"Ugh, Bianta, why so mean. Not getting enough love at home?" She gave me an glare. She was about to say something, but Ms. Kate came in looking annoyed.
"Bianta, you're up next. Come on." Bianta smiled in my direction.
"And luckily I get to preform her song before her." She bounced out the room.
"What?" I followed her and watched as she went on stage as Did announced her. Don't know how Dib got roped into that job. She stood there as she waited in her pink tutu and purple shirt. As soon as the music started I almost screamed.
" You're so hypnotizing
Could you be the devil?
Could you be an angel?
Your touch magnetizing
Feels like I am floating
Leaves my body glowing"
That bitch was singing my song! How could she? Oh, yeah. How could I forget? She was a little bitch snake that seriously only cared for herself. I had to keep myself from running out on that stage and popping her one good one. I watched every move she made. I wanted to snap her in half. What a freak skank. After she was done the crowd cheered loud and asked her to do more.
"Sorry. I know how much you'll miss me. At least do me a favor and clap for everyone after me. It'll do them some good." She jogged off the stage.
"How was that, Membrain,' she asked laughing. "Don't forget, no one likes a copy cat." She breezed passed me with a pip in her step.
"You're next, Ms Kate said from behind me. It made me jump.
"But, but I can't go on."
"Oh, stage fright," she chuckled. "You'll get over it. Now get up there."
"You don't understand."
"Yes I do," she said trying to push me to get behind the curtain. Dib was trying to make jokes before announcing me.
"No, Bianta stole my song! I can't go out there."
"What?"
"She stole my song. That's what I was going to sing. Please at least let me go last to pick something else."
"I'm sorry, but you're up next. I can't control what the other children do. You'll just have to go and try to preform it better."
"Please, Ms. Kate. I can't. Please. I'll do anything.
"Nope sorry. Now get out there." She pushed onto the stage and I ran back to go through the side. Ms. Kate blocked me.
"I'll tell you the way to my dad's heart." She stopped trying to hold me back and thought for a second.
'OKay, okay. Tell me."
"Not till after I go last and this t hing is over."
"Fine. Dib, change of plans. Matt is going next," she said into her head set.
"Thanks."
"Don't thank me just yet." I grumbled and walked back to the room where everyone was waiting for their turn. Now I just have to find something else quickly before it was my turn. I had 15 other people ahead of me. I went to go sit in a corner of the room and try to figure out what I was going to do.
Well, well Bianta. Why is she so mean to Bianca? You'll find out soon enough. Stay tuned for another chapter.
