Disclaimer: ok! Well the only thing in this story I don't own is the s club.
Everything else is my own material from my own head!
Spoilers: For story writing purposes I have added another member to the band
S Club 7. In this fanfic I will refer to the band as S Club. One of S Club will
come out as a bad guy in this story and looking around on the net, it is probably
a one of the more popular members. I have added the enrolment of the 8th Member
before I begin the actual fanfic.
::Park Bench::
Johnny sat on a park bench staring into the park. A blank look on her face!
His head held up by his hands and his elbows rested on his knees. A few people
passed him and quite a few recognized him but didn't approach, as he seemed
very distant. He sat there as he watched the trees sway ever so slightly in
the wind.
Why did everything have to be so complicated? Before Go Wild he only cared for
Tina in that way where you want to share you life with them. Now he cared for
Hannah the exact same way and maybe his feelings for Hannah were more intense.
However he couldn't hurt the band but that looked like it was going to happen.
He could tell Paul was perhaps in the same predicament as him but the looks
shared between Rachel and Paul when he watched them suggested more happen concerning
them than himself and Hannah.
A woman walked by, and stopped when she saw Johnny sitting on the bench. She
looked at him for a bit as he looked back at her. She sat down next to him on
the bench.
Woman: Hi!
Johnny: Hi, do I know you?
Woman: Maybe by name but not by sight!
Johnny: So what is your name?
Stacey: It's Stacey!
Johnny: Jon's new girlfriend right?
Stacey: That's me.
Johnny: Nice to meet ya, Jon's in the building across the road. Second floor.
Stacey: Why aren't you there with them?
Johnny: I got some thinking to do. I have a big problem.
Stacey: Care to share it?
Johnny: Let's just say I have a friend and I know for certain that her boyfriend
isn't having faithful thoughts and might have been unfaithful.
Stacey: Well why don't you tell that friend?
Johnny: Well, I see the boyfriend as a friend as well. And the girl he is thinking
of being unfaithful with is also a friend. All a bit confusing!
Stacey: If it was me, I think I would tell my friend anyway.
Johnny: Well I want to see what they have to say for themselves first.
Stacey: You gonna come with me to the studio then.
Johnny: I think I'll stay here for now, I'll see you later.
Stacey gets up and walks away from Johnny towards the studio. Johnny stays sitting
but isn't left on his own for long.
Paul: Johnny, there you are!
Rachel: We were all worried about you because you left and you seemed angry.
Johnny turns his head looking at them with a smirk on his face although he still
looks angry.
Johnny: You two weren't worried about me. You where just worried about what
I know or what I think I know.
Paul: We don't know what you mean!
Johnny: Don't play stupid with me. I can tell a look of lust cause I have seen
and given them before. So tell me when it all begun!
Rachel: Nothing has happened!
Johnny: I'll repeat myself, when did it all begin?
Silence, as Johnny waits for an answer from either Paul or Rachel.
Rachel: First night we filmed Go Wild.
Johnny: One night or more?
Paul: More than one night!
Johnny: You do realize this could break up the band.
Paul: Not if they don't find out.
Johnny: The truth nearly always comes out eventually.
Paul: So what do you suggest we do?
Johnny: Well right now I feel like kicking your ass because you're supposed
to want Hannah. You either tell her, break up with her quickly or you stay with
her and be faithful. You mess her about and I won't give you another chance.
And as for you Rachel!
Rachel: Hey, I haven't cheated on anyone and neither has he?
Johnny: That's not the point. You slept with the man your best friend wanted
to be with. And Jeremy wanted to get back together with you. I suppose that
won't be happening. Now I'm keeping my mouth shut just for the band and not
for you two alright.
Paul: Were sorry but we can't help the way we feel.
Johnny: That's true but you can contain yourselves. You could have managed to
hold your passion for each other. One question?
Rachel: Yeah!
Johnny: You two haven't done anything together while Hannah has been under the
impression that Paul is her boyfriend have you?
Another silence falls over them as Johnny shakes his head in disgust and gets
up walking over to the studio once again.
Paul: What are we going to do now he knows?
Rachel: You have the choices he told you.
Paul: Why does he have to be so clever?
Rachel: Sometimes he is a bit too clever isn't he? No one else realized but
him.
Paul: How am I going to dump Hannah without her thinking it is because of you
or another woman? If I do it wrong it could ruin the band.
Rachel: I have an idea!
Paul: What is it?
Rachel: We both want the band to stay together right!
Paul: Yeah.
Rachel: Well what we do is we find something about Johnny that he doesn't want
us or anyone to find out about or something like that and make sure he keeps
quite. Then you can date Hannah for a bit and try to make her not like you as
a boyfriend kind of thing.
Paul: That's a good idea but it isn't going to be easy as she's been my friend
for so long. She knows nearly everything about me.
Rachel: We'll think of something.
::Studio::
Stacey has arrived already and is sitting on the couch in the arms of Jon as
Tina, Jo and Bradley talk on the floor. Hannah has finished going over the song
with the studio team and they are waiting for Johnny.
Studio Man: Where the hell is Johnny? This single needs to be done and he has
just disappeared.
Stacey: I saw him in the park when I came here. I could go and get him if you
want?
Johnny: No need! I'm here.
Studio Man: Good, well get in their and lets do your part.
Johnny and Hannah both go in and stand either side of the mic and wait for the
music to come on for them to sing their parts. The lyrics song earlier by Johnny
comes on as they wait for it to end for them to sing their part.
I guess I've waited far too long
You Just Can't lead Me On.
The music stops again as the music continues as they wait to do it again.
Cause now I've waited far too long
You can't just lead me on.
Johnny's earlier recording comes back on as their last part comes around.
You know that I won't do you wrong
This Love I feel is far too strong
And now I've waited far too long
You can't just lead me on
Studio Man: That was perfect guys. It sounded like you had practised that already.
Just wait a sec and then you can all do the chorus.
Johnny and Hannah smile at each other and walk out as the S Club minus Rachel
and Paul but plus Stacey clap their hands.
Bradley: That sounded great guys.
Jo: Yeah, your voices go well together. It sounded like you two had been singing
together for ages.
Tina: You would almost think they were singing it about each other.
The third silence for Johnny of the day as for an uncomfortable second no one
spoke a word.
Johnny: We were singing it together about the people in our lives.
Johnny walks over to Tina and puts his arms around her waist, feeling really
uncomfortable with Hannah watching.
