| Joshua spoke for all of them after a minute of contemplation, "I definetely want you to call him," Shady grinned before Joshua added, "But we have just got together and we need to perfect our sound together and learn eachothers rhythms. You could call him." "Yeah?" Shady said, he listened to Joshua and agreed with him. "You could set up to meet him in a couple of weeks and we could sing for him." "I'll do that." Shady replied as he went to call Andre. "You guys ready to sing for a top producer in a couple of weeks?" Joshua asked. "I'm up for it." Justin answered. "We're all fine with it Jace." Joey answered for all of them. "I have an idea," Justin began and Joshua nodded for him to continue, "We should dance as well." "Sure one of Ashley's friends is a choreographer he could help us." Joshua offered, he didn't notice Lance flinch at Ashley's name. "Sure you can call him or tell him tomorrow at school. I'm going to bed." Justin said then went upstairs, Joey and Chris following. "Are you gonna call him?" Lance asked as he sat close to Josh. "Should I? Or should I wait 'til tomorrow?" Joshua asked. "Call now then we won't have to worry about it anymore." Lance replied his other reason is ::you won't have to talk to him much tomorrow:: "Sure." Joshua said and picked up the phone and waited for an answer. "Hello?" Ashley answered. "Hey baby." Lance swallowed hard and blinked away the tears in his eyes [[This plan will work; it has to]] "Joshua, honey what's up?" Ashley smiled, he missed Joshua's voice. "Nothing much. We kicked Jason out and Lance is his replacement." Ashley closed his eyes [[Jason didn't have a crush on you]], "Lance is with you now?" "Yeah he has a beautiful voice and is perfect for our harmonies." "I'm happy for you." "I actually called to ask if Darren would mind doing some choreography for us?" "I'm sure he'd love to, I'll call him and tell you at school whether he'll do it or not." "OK. I better go, bye baby." "Bye Joshua." Ashley said as he hung up and Joshua put the phone back. "Is he going to do it?" Lance asked. "Ashley will ask him tonight and get back to me tomorrow." Joshua rubbed his face, "I'm tired." "So let's go to bed." Lance said. Joshua smiled at Lance, "Ok." Lance and Joshua walked upstairs and they hugged eachother goodnight and got ready for bed. "Goodnight Josh. I love you." Lance whispered before falling asleep. "Night Lance, I love you." Joshua whispered before falling asleep in his own bed thinking about Lance. The next morning they woke up and got ready for school. Joshua was at the breakfast nook eating while singing Wheatus 'A Little Respect': "I tried to discover A little something to make me sweeter Oh baby refrain From breaking my heart I'm so in love wih you, I'll be forever blue That you give me no reason You know you're making me work so hard That you give me no that you give me no that you give me no that you give me no Oooohhh" Joshua danced 'round the kitchen as the others watched him amused, Lance was smiling at Joshua love shone brightly in his gaze. "I hear you calling oh baby please give a little respect to me And if I should fall down Won't you open your arms out to me We can make up my world And every peice in my heart I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue What you give me no reason To drive a man to forsake his lover That you tell me no That you tell me no That you tell me no Don't you tell me no Oooohhh I hear you calling Oh baby please Give a little respect To me I'm so in love with you I'll be forever blue That you give me no reason Though you're making me work so hard I hear you calling Oh baby please Give a little respect To me I hear you calling Oh baby please Give a little respect To me" They guys started clapping and Joshua blushed, then Shady took them to school and Joshua met up with Ashley who was with Darren. "Hey Ashley." Joshua said smiling at his...boyfriend. He still has trouble saying it even after they told everybody but Ashley is starting to lose his atraction, Lance however... "Hey Joshua, this is Darren." Ashley introduced the two who hugged. "Hello Darren did Ash tell you about our offer." Joshua asked. "Yes and I will be very interested, what'cha got?" "Well my friend gave me this song to sing," He handed it to Darren who looked it over, "And I'll call the guys and we'll sing it and you can think up the choreographies." "OK." Darren said and emmediately Joshua phoned them up and everybody arrived within 15 minutes; even Chris who was at the store. "What's up?" Chris asked curious as to why Joshua called them. "Meet Darren our new choreographer," They all said their hello's then Joshua continued, "We're gonna sing a new song for him and he'll think up a dance." They guys agreed and warmed up a little then they started: "It's tearing up my heart when I'm with you But when we are apart I feel it too And no matter what I do I feel the pain With or without you..." |
