"Now and then I think of when we were together

Like when you said you felt so happy you could die

Told myself that you were right for me

But felt so lonely in your company

But that was love and it's an ache I still remember," Anthony sang. I swiftly stepped on the stage, but not that close.

"You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness

Like resignation to the end, always the end

So when we found that we could not make sense

Well you said that we would still be friends

But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over," he continued. I took the microphone out of Mrs. D' s hands and started to walk on the stage. Anthony looked at me, truly acting out his part.

"But you didn't have to cut me off

Make out like it never happened and that we were nothing

And I don't even need your love

But you treat me like a stranger and that feels so rough

No you didn't have to stoop so low

Have your friends collect your records and then change your number

I guess that I don't need that though

Now you're just somebody that I used to know," I moved over so I was next to him.

"Now you're just somebody that I used to know," he sung on. I shook my head, looking at Angela and Ally who were backstage with Mrs. D. They were going up next with their duet to Say Something so they are warming up.

"Now you're just somebody that I used to know," Anthony sang. I took in a small breath as I touched his shoulder, but he shrugged it off, as rehearsed.

" Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over

But had me believing it was always something that I'd done

But I don't wanna live that way

Reading into every word you say

You said that you could let it go

And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know," I sang my part with as much emotion as I could muster. We finished in unison, because Mrs. D wanted us to sing the rest in unison.

"Great job guys!" Mrs. D ran out on the stage after we were done. I wanted, handing her the microphone.

"Okay, next up is Say Something, it will be performed by Alison Grace and Angela Kent," Ally is Michael's cousin. They sent me nervous glance as I walked down the steps to sit in between Lilly and Liam.

"You did awesome," Liam gave me a small side hug.

"Thanks Liam, Lilly?" Liam asked tells me what I want to hear, Lilly tells me the truth. She took a second, and then finally answered.

"You honestly did amazing, you and Anthony are awesome actors too," she gave me the thumbs up.

"Did you know your parents could come?" Lilly asked.

"Yeah," I said.

"Well I invited ours," she waved at a couple in the back, who were looking at us.

"Oh my gosh," I sighed.

"Next up is Luke Jason with I'm The Man," I saw Ally and Angela go to sit down. Luke is another popular guy, who I hang out with sometimes. He's one of Michael's only other friends. When I say that I mean, one of the only other people who can stand Michael's parents.

"He's good," Lilly pointed out.

"Yeah, and hot," I heard Erin say. "Are you going to steal him from me too, Emily?"

"I'm with Liam, so you can have him all you want," I stated and she sighed in happiness.

"I'm the man I'm the man, I'm the man," Luke sang and everyone sighed. Mostly girls. He's a big ladies man.

When Luke was done practically every girl was side eyed and actually paying attention, if they weren't already when I went up there. Anthony and I sing in perfect harmony and draw in a crowd. That's what Mrs. D says anyway.

"Great job, next is my special show choir group with Rumour Has It, this group includes all the students who have performed so far, Alison Grace and Emily Andrews have the solos." we all joined Luke on stage and got into our starting positions.

"She, she ain't real,

She ain't gonna be able to love you like I will," everyone sang. We all just did simple step touches while Anthony did handstand walks around the stage, still being able to sing. He is probably my biggest fan and I'm probably his. If I wasn't mated to Liam, I would probably be dating Anthony.

"She is a stranger,

You and I have history,

Or don't you remember?" I walked to the front and did a round off back tuck.

" Sure, she's got it all,

But, baby, is that really what you want?" Ally walked to the front at the last part.

" Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds,

You made a fool out of you,

And, boy, she's bringing you down,

She made your heart melt,

But you're cold to the core,

Now rumour has it she ain't got your love anymore," Ally sung the her solo perfectly while the rest of us did free style, as asked. I just did a bunch of air guitar motions with Anthony, because we're awesome like that.

"Rumour has it!" All the girls shouted while the guys quietly did the back ground rumour. That part repeats eight times before Ally walked back and Angela stepped up to do her barrel turns around the stage , she's a ballet star.

"She is half your age,

But I'm guessing that's the reason that you stayed,

I heard you've been missing me,

You've been telling people things you shouldn't be,

Like when we creep out and she ain't around,

Haven't you heard the rumours?" we all sang, doing step touch, watching Angela doing her turns, occasionally doing a leap or maybe a fan kick. She did a front arial once or twice.

"Bless your soul, you've got your head in the clouds,

You made a fool out of me,

And, boy, you're bringing me down,

You made my heart melt, yet I'm cold to the core,

But rumour has it I'm the one you're leaving her for," I belted out my solo.

"Go Emily!" I heard Lilly shout. I smiled a wide smile and then quickly composed myself for my other solo. We repeated the rumour thing where the girls say rumour has it, at the same time the guys sing rumour.

"All of these words whispered in my ear,

Tell a story that I cannot bear to hear,

Just 'cause I said it, it don't mean that I meant it,

People say crazy things,

Just 'cause I said it, don't mean that I meant it,

Just 'cause you heard it," I sang my solo, which happened to be my favorite part of the whole song.

"Rumour has it," all the girls sang while the guys sang the rumour thing.

"Rumour has it he's the one I'm leaving you for," Ally and I sang the last part.

"Okay, that was awesome. Beautiful job on the solos girls, okay Daisy Waterman, with Shut Up And Dance," everyone clapped as I sat down.

"Cecelia ran away," Liam whispered and I nodded. Poor girl, I couldn't imagine how it feels to be rejected.

"Okay, well I'll talk to the council about it," I whispered as I watched the girl prance around the stage, I can tell how she didn't make show choir. No offence.

"Okay, great job Daisy, next is Macy Hendricks with Roar," I clapped, but rolled my eyes as Daisy made this huge grand gesture bow, then winked at Liam. She has a major crush on him. I think it's pretty funny when she attempts to flirt with him.

"I got the eye of the tiger," Macy started to sing when my phone vibrated. I looked and saw all the teachers were sitting in the back row, so they couldn't see me. I also saw no one was paying attention to me so I took my phone out and saw it was a text from the council leader, Marcus.

there is a pregnant rogue, if you see her, talk to her... I trust you, you can relate to her... don't accept her in your pack, just talk to her I nodded at my text and put my phone back in my pocket, I never answer back without permission.

"Marcus?" Liam looks at me. I nodded and looked up where my parents happened to be sitting. My mom waved like a mad woman as my dad just gave me a short nod of his head. I looked down at my stomach, then at Liam, thinking of how that would be us with our two boys.

"I love you," Liam kissed my nose.

"Love you too," I mumbled.

"Okay next is Kayla Daniels with Pompeii," the girl stood up and started to sing one of my favorite songs.

"Hey-" Liam started but I put my hand to his face.

"Shh, this is my song," I started, making him roll his eyes.

"But if you close your eyes," Kayla sang, making me dance in my seat.

"You're so weird," Liam chuckled.

"Says the one who is willing to raise children with me," I muttered.

"So, we're still going on that date, right?" I nodded and he grinned, pecking my cheek.

"Okay, now is Emily Andrews and Alison Grace, again, with Give It Up," I smiled at Liam before standing up and taking a microphone out of Michael's hand, since he was a part of the backstage crew. Cassy was also helping out, so she could be close to the door in case Mick needed her.

"You know my parents and your parents have been watching you and Liam in the audience," he whispered so low only a were wolf could hear. I nodded and he rolled his eyes. " Good luck."

Ally and I sang really good, I sang Elizabeth Gillies' part, she sang Ariana Grande' s part.

"Whoo!" I heard the pack scream as I walked down the steps.

"Okay, now this was just a small thing they did in class, and they didn't exactly know they were going to do it, but, Anthony come up here, and Emily don't leave the stage," I stopped in my tracks and looked at Anthony who shrugged.

"Okay so these two did their first music project together, because they're best friends, and for the first presentation they did..." Anthony and I just stood there awkwardly, we aren't exactly proud of our first presentation because we just kind of jammed out, and acted like we were jamming out to our favorite song in our bedrooms alone. Yeah, like that.

"Um, no," I said in the microphone, making tons of people laugh.

"Come on, you guys had the best presentation," Mrs. D urged.

"That because we didn't know it was presentation day, so we just rocked out," Anthony said. I gave him a high-five and everyone in the chorus laughed at the memory of our presentation.

"See, they remember it," I said, gesturing to the audience.

"Play the track," Mrs. D walked away. I groaned but got into my starting position.

" Buddy you're a boy make a big noise

Playin' in the street gonna be a big man some day" Anthony sang while I just bobbed my head to the tune.

" You got mud on yo' face

You big disgrace," I sang, pointing at the crowd.

" Kickin' your can all over the place

Singin'

We will we will rock you

We will we will rock you," Anthony and I sang in unison. Everyone cheered and Anthony and I high-fived once again.

" Buddy you're a young man hard man

Shoutin' in the street gonna take on the world some day," I sang. Anthony just fist pumped the air.

That's pretty much how the entire song went. We're awesome people. When we were done we hugged and I kissed his cheek, before walking off the stage to Liam, who was smiling a big smile. He doesn't get jealous easily, because he actually trusts me.

"I love you," he muttered, kissing my cheek.

"Ditto," I said. He just grinned and looked at my parents who were watching us with narrowed eyes.

Finally we got to the end of the concert, when all the solos came. All the solos from before were just to make it so people weren't singing to much in a row. I was probably the only one. Each solo was very well earned and I had laughed a lot because a lot of people did those fun songs everyone loves. One kid even did the duck song, earning him tons of laughter. The girl who did let it go just went. Mrs. D said she saved the best for last, and for some reason, I'm last. I don't get it.

"Okay, Emily, you may now come up and sing your solo to Can't blame a girl for trying," I nodded and walked up onto the stage.

"Here I am again, the same old situation

Why does the guy thing have to be so complicated?

I should’ve played it cool, instead I made a fool

Oh, the things I do"I sang into the microphone, looking straight into the eyes of Liam.

"‘Cause I’m young and I’m dumb

I do stupid things when it comes to love

And even if I always end up crying

Well, you can’t blame a girl for trying" I sang, shifting my eyes to my parents.

"No, you can’t blame a girl for trying.

I should’ve shut my mouth, I could’ve kept it quiet

I might have freaked him out ’cause I was so excited

But I just couldn’t wait, I took a leap of faith

Oh, the things I say" I looked into the eyes of Anthony. People were still cheering, but I only looked at the certain people at a time.

"‘Cause I’m young and I’m dumb

I do stupid things when it comes to love

And even if I always end up crying

Well, you can’t blame a girl for trying

No, you can’t blame a girl for trying" I looked into Lilly's eyes. Soon I noticed people caught on to the fact I was shifting my eyes every time I went from a verse to a chorus.

"And I think sometimes I tend to be my own worst enemy

And maybe someday I’m gonna catch a shooting star falling out of the blue

Do what I do"I looked into Michael's eyes. I smirked a little when he turned and said something to Cassy.

"And just as I’m giving up, my heart is palpitating

Here comes another one and it's so intoxicating

Being where I’ve been I know that in the end

I’ll do it all again" I looked at Mr. and Mrs. Grace. They were smiling and Mrs. Grace was softly moving her head to the music.

"‘Cause I’m young and I’m dumb

I do stupid things when it comes to love

And even if I always end up crying

Well, love will find me, there ain’t no denying

That you can’t blame a girl for trying

No, you can’t blame a girl for trying" I finished the song looking at Liam. I smiled as people erupted into cheers. His showed how proud of me he was and I couldn't help but giggle a little when I saw my parents sigh looking at Liam as well.

"Okay, that was beautiful Emily. Take a bow," I took a small bow before handing her the microphone. I smiled and walked over to my group of friends. Now I have to go home and get ready for my date. I also have to deal with that pregnant chick. I also have to make sure my parents know I'm not avoiding them. Lovely day this is going to be.
