Chapter 17 – Two Worlds Collide
ZPOV
I left the dressing room and headed for the vents, I had to find the Falls' temporary dressing rooms. Aha! I found them I clambered down from the vents and knocked on the first door I came to. Skylar answered.
'Can I help you?' He asked. I shook my head and ran to the next door. A brown haired girl answered – did I mention she was wrapped around some security guy?
'What?'
'Uh, never mind!' I shook my head and ran off. At last I found what I was looking for.
'Hello?' A girl with light brown hair answered the door sheepishly. Chloe.
'Can I come in?' I asked politely.
'Uh su-'
'Of course I can!' I interrupted and entered her dressing room. 'Nice place you got here.' I said whilst looking around.
'Uh it's not-'
'You're welcome! So here's the dilly. Grady's lonely, his best friend has run off with his ex-crush and I know that you like him.' I explained rather rapidly.
'I uh-' She blushed.
'So here's what you're gonna do.' I sat down on her sofa and dragged her down with me as I began to explain my plan to her. She nodded in agreement continuously. She actually started to look like a nodding dog – in human form.

I was really nervous. I had a feeling it was all going to go terribly wrong. It's all Chads' fault, even though I would never tell him that – I wouldn't want him to feel bad. I was going to sing Hero by Mariah Carey, but then Chad went and sung his Hero! So I had to change my song at the last minute! I'd had no rehearsal with this song; I'd just have to try my best. As soon as I set foot on stage the butterflies grew, bigger and bigger until I thought they would fly right out of me. The music started and I began to sing.
She was given the world, so much that she couldn't see
And she need someone, to show her who she could be
And she tried, to survive
Wearing her heart on her sleeve
But I needed you to believe
The audience was clapping just after the first verse! I didn't need to be nervous!
I loved performing, always have, always will. It just gives me such a buzz! When I'm out there singing I just feel so alive, and grateful that all those people actually want to hear me sing. My parents always used to tell me to be quiet because I sang too much!
I finished the song, took a quick bow and said thank you, then I ran off the stage into the wings. I ran straight into Chad and nearly fell over, but I felt a pair of strong arms catch me – God I do love him.
'Hey!' He greeted me with a smile.
'Hey.'
'I have a problem with that song you just sung.' He said seriously.
'What?' I was utterly confused right now' I thought he'd love it!
'Well, I'm guessing it was about us – am I right?'
'Yeeeees?' I said dragging the word out cautiously.
'Well, it said in it, 'You had your fears I had mine' etc. Chad Dylan Cooper fears nothing!' He said proudly.
'Spiders?' I asked with a small smirk on my face.
'Not little ones!'
'Heights?'
'Not little ones!' I pulled him into a big bear hug and whispered in his ear.
'You're such a jerk do you know that?'
'That's jerkthrob to you!' He pushed me away and pointed at me.
'Remind me again why I love you?' As soon as I said those words I felt his smooth lips crash against mine. Our mouths moved in sync for another minute or so until I broke away, leaving Chad with a pouty look on his face.
'Oh yeah, I remember now.' I smiled as we walked away with our fingers entwined.

I was on my way back to the main stage after explaining my plan to Chloe. I walked around the corner and saw Sonny and Chad playing tonsil tennis. Two words – Not. Nice. (A/N: I was gonna put not cool but that's Sonny's line so I didn't but whatever.) After giving them a look of disgust I swiftly left the scene and headed to where I had last seen Nico; luckily, he was still there. He was on the phone so I thought it would be best to save my rant until after he was done. I started to listen in to his conversation and heard,
'I'm sorry I can't make it tonight baby girl.' Oh no, this could not be good. 'You know I would have loved to see you but I just can't ok, another time, hey there's plenty of Nico to go around!'
What! Nico is cheating on Tawni! This could not be happening. I had to tell Tawni.
A/N: Dun dun duuuun! :O what's gonna happen? Review please :)
