Disclaimer: ok! Well the only thing in this story I don't own is the s club and a lot of songs will be taken from other artists because I like them. Everything else is my own material from my own head! Thanks to Stacey/Spanner for the majority of questions!

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. The timeline will be changed to suit the story at certain times. I am thinking about raising the rating on this fic because the original plan and this plan that I have now would both be better if they were a bit more graphic and had use of swear words. Leave what you think on reviews all though I don't seem to be getting as many now as I used to.

::S Club's house in London::

Reporters surrounded the house as they waited hoping to get a few words with Johnny from S Club over his signing with another record label. It had been in the major newspapers this morning and on news channels the night before. They were eager to find out the truth and so were some S Club fans as they also waited to hear from him. As they waited, their attention was suddenly taken away from the S Club house. A very expensive looking blue Mercedes convertible pulled into the driveway of the S Club house. Inside the car, turning off the engine was none other than England's most successful actress Stacey. She put on her shades and then stroked her hair back and stepped out of the car. Reporters were immediately surrounded her. She smiled her fake pretending to be polite smile.

Stacey: Can I help you guys?

Reporter: We were just wondering why you are here at the S Club's house?

Stacey: Well my boyfriend is living here at the moment! Isn't that reason enough?

Reporter 2: Yes, of course it is. I just wondered if you heard the news?

Stacey: Well seeing as I've been in America, I doubt I would know the news as I've just got back.

Reporter: I believe he is referring to Johnny signing on with Sean "P. Diddy" Combs record label.

Stacey: No, I hadn't heard! Now if you we please excuse me, I have someone I need to talk to.

Stacey quickly walks past the reporters and a wave to some of the fans before she uses the key Jon gave her and enters the house. It's virtually empty, as she had expected, as it was still early in the morning. However she was sure one of two of the S Club guys would be up. Unfortunately it wasn't the one she really wanted to see. Sitting in the kitchen eating a bowl of cereal was the newest Bad Boy acquisition. He looked up at her and smiled.

Johnny: Hi Stacey! Welcome back home. Jon's upstairs asleep I believe.

Stacey: Okay, but I want to talk to you first!

Johnny: I didn't do it, honest!

Stacey: So you haven't signed with a new record label?

Johnny: Oh yeah, I've done that!

Stacey: But what about S Club, how can you leave them when they are the biggest band in England and one of the biggest in America?

The look of surprise told Stacey right away that Johnny had no intention of leaving the band.

Johnny: I've got know idea what your talking about. I am not leaving S Club, not for a few years yet anyway.

Stacey: I don't get it though, how can you still be with S Club but have a deal with another record company.

Johnny: Well I renegotiated my contract with Simon so I could sign with another record label if I so wanted when I decided to begin a solo career but not leave S Club. This would also mean I could work with anyone in that label I signed with without having to go through all the legal stuff. My contract with Bad Boy Inc isn't a solo contract but just a contract that allows me to sing with anyone in the Bad Boy Inc label. I signed because G- Dep wanted to me to rap in his next song so I did. I'm still a member of S Club.

Stacey: That's good to hear, I though I might have to slap some sense into you.

They both laughed as Jon came down the stairs.

Jon: You know they have loads of reporters outside, oh my god Stacey!

Jon and Stacey quickly ran to each other and hugged before engaging in a kiss. A quite long and loving kiss!

Johnny: Please, I'm eating here!

Jon: Don't complain, I've had to watch you and Hannah do this for ages without seeing Stacey.

Stacey: How have you been honey?

Jon: Not as great as I am now! So how did the movie go, End of Innocence right?

Stacey: Yeah, it was good. Quite fun actually! Chris Tucker was really funny!

Jon: Cool, I can't wait to see it.

Johnny: Neither can I!

Silence for a while, apart from Johnny munching on his cornflakes.

Jon: Want some tea Stace?

Stacey: Please! So Johnny, what are you going to do about the press outside?

Johnny: Ignore them until the press conference this afternoon!

Jon: But we have rehearsals all day today.

Johnny: Not anymore. We have the morning off and a press conference this afternoon.

Stacey: Do you think I could come along because my agent says I've got to get publicity and it would be easier for me than getting my own press conference.

Johnny: I'll call Simon but I'm sure he'd like that. The press haven't really seen you two together recently anyway. They'll eat it up!

Stacey: I hope so! I don't really like press conferences anyway.

Jon: It's just some fools asking silly questions. You'll get used to it.

::Press Conference::

One very big room, in fact a very boring looking room apart from one side of the it which is covered in S Club signs. It is filled with many reporters sitting and waiting for the S Club to arrive along with movie star Stacey. One man sitting right at the front is talking on the phone, and a smile suddenly lights up on his face as if he had just won the lottery. He hangs up and has a smug look on his face as a 19 management representative steps out.

Representative: Here is S Club seven and Stacey Brook!

S Club and Stacey Brook alongside Jon walk out and one by one take their seats in front of the massive audience of reporters. Johnny immediately sees a reporter he doesn't like the look of and stares at him awhile, just getting a smug stare back and then he sits down. The representative talks some more and then lets the reporters begin asking questions.

Daily Mail: Well the obvious question has to be on your performance last night Johnny with G-Dep and P. Diddy. After we heard that you had signed a contract with G-Dep and P. Diddy's record label. Is this the beginning of your solo career without S Club and why did you decide to perform that song with the two respective rappers?

Johnny: Quite simple really! While we were in Hollywood filming the third TV series I meet P. Diddy one night at a club. We talked and he said my voice would suit his type of music and he also wondered if I could rap. I proved I could rap to him and he said that whenever the S Club splits up, he would like me to be part of his record label so he could use me in some of the Bad Boy Productions. Seeing as my contract allows me to have sign with another record label for my solo career I signed with his label. This is within my rights according to my contract as long as it doesn't affect my work with S Club, which it won't. As for why I performed that song with P. Diddy and G-Dep, well all three of us worked on it and we decided that all three of us should perform it.

Daily Star: Bradley, are you still single?

Bradley: Yes, I am still single because as of yet I haven't found the right women like Jon, Johnny or Paul. Not that I haven't been checking out my options.

The Sun: Jon, seeing as Stacey is now back in England after filming End of Innocence, do you find it hard when she is actually away?

Jon: It's hard at times yes. As you know Paul and Rachel and Johnny and Hannah are both couples and it reminds me of Stacey not being with me. Luckily S Club keeps me very busy so it is only really bad when we are given time off and Stacey is working.

The Sun: Do you also feel this way Stacey?

Stacey: Yes, all though when I am actually away I am kept very busy filming the movies and so on so I suppose it isn't as hard for me. 19 management allows me to stay with S Club when I have my time off so if I'm not working I'm normally with Jon.

The Mirror: Paul, seeing as you have been with Rachel for quite some time now, do you feel there is the possibility of you proposing soon to be wed?

Paul: I feel that is a possibility seeing as we have lasted as a couple so long but I don't plan on asking anytime this year at least. But who knows things can change!

News of The World: Johnny, when you joined the band did you find it hard to fit in with a group which already had a tight bond with each other? Johnny: I wouldn't say it was hard. I already made friends within the first few days. I was afraid I wouldn't fit in at the beginning but they made me feel welcome. And I knew Bradley from when we went to school together anyway.

The Sun: Seeing as you have gotten the Sexiest Women in Britain prize two years in a row now, have you ever considered getting with the Sexiest Man in Britain at anytime while you have both been in S Club?

Rachel couldn't hide the embarrassed smile that came on her face as Johnny turned to look at her with a smile.

Rachel: Yes, I have thought about it before. But that was before Paul and I became got together and before he was the Sexiest Man in Britain. Once he was made a no go area I haven't had such thoughts.

Daily Mail: Tina, seeing as you have even got dancing degree's and are even qualified to be a choreograher, did you ever find that you were pressured into dancing or was it something you enjoyed doing and you wanted to be pushed?

Tina: Well dancing wasn't exactly my dream when I was a child but I got put into a dancing class at a youngish age which could be considered being pushed into it but I really enjoyed it and my family made sure I knew I could drop it when I wanted so know, I wasn't pressured into it at all.

Daily Star: Why were you brought into the band in the first place Johnny because originally this group was supposed to be a seven?

Johnny: Well it was supposed to be a seven and I wasn't in the original seven. However Jon at one point didn't think he would actually be able to be in the band and hence the found me to replace him. Then Jon found out he could be in the band and they all went off to Italy. At first I was offered a solo career but that wasn't what I wanted. So they waited until these guys came back from Italy and introduced me to them as a new member. I had a week trial and if they liked me, I stayed. Luckily they liked me.

Daily Star: Jon, if you did leave, do you think Johnny was a suitable replacement?

Jon: Do you mean a suitable replacement to fit in with the band or a suitable replacement for me?

Daily Star: Both!

Jon: Well he was defiantly a suitable replacement to fit in the band. He has the talent that was required and more and we all got on with him. If he is a suitable replacement for me as in taking my place in the band, well he can do flips and all that but he isn't as good at reaching the high notes like me. We have very different styles of dancing, his style is more like Bradley's and we have different voices. So he isn't really a replacement for me but a good addition to the band if you get me!

The Daily Star reporter nodded.

The Mirror: Stacey, when you began dating Jon, did you have any idea you would get a place on one of their shows and then impress the world so much that you become a world famous actress?

Stacey: Yes, that's why I went out with him. Just joking! I didn't realize at all, I thought it would just be like Jo and Lee are, that I would have a small amount of fame just because I was dating someone famous. I never dreamed I would become famous myself.

The Mirror: Speaking of you Jo, how are things going with you and Lee?

Jo: Well I might as well tell you all now because eventually you'll find out anyway.

Jo holds up her hand showing off a ring to the crowd.

Jo: Lee and I are engaged and have actually been engaged for quite some time but we still haven't come up with a date for the wedding. We are trying to wait for the time that feels right for us!

The Sun: Hannah, did you realize that when you met Paul when you were younger that both of you would end up in a pop group?

Hannah: Of course I didn't! I didn't even imagine being in a pop group anyway. I was focusing on acting but this came up and I couldn't throw this kind of chance away.

Daily Star: Back to Johnny, were you ever worried that the band wouldn't like you when you joined and that you wouldn't be accepted?

Johnny: I was worried before I met them. I was really worried in fact but they were all great and any worries disappeared because I felt like I was accepted straight away.

The Sun: This is to Stacey and Jon, how did you two meet?

Jon: Well actually we meet while Tina, Jo and I were filming S Club Go Wild. We meet at the mud baths.

The Sun: What were you two doing in the mud baths together?

Stacey: Your jumping the gun a bit mate. We weren't in the same one together. If you remember the program then you will remember Tina and Jon filming part of Jo's series in the mud bath together. I was on holiday in a mud bath nearby.

Jon: After that we went for dinner and found out we liked each other and that is how we got together.

Daily Star: Johnny, when you first joined the band did you fancy any of the girls?

Johnny: Your really interested in me aren't ya mate! Of course I did, they are all beautiful girls and I fancied all of them at first.

Daily Star: Did you ever make a move on any of them?

Johnny: Obviously I did as I'm dating Hannah now.

The Mirror: With this new song with G-Dep and P. Diddy, does this mean you are setting up your solo career?

Johnny: No way, I'm just having some fun with it that's all. It wasn't a serious record and I don't feel any of us are bothered if it doesn't go to number one.

The Mirror: So your not worried even though no song you've had a hand in writing has ever not gone to Number One. Don't you feel any pressure?

Johnny: The day I begin to feel pressure is the day I pack it in and wave goodbye to this business.

The Sun: This is for everyone except Jon and Stacey! When you heard Jon might be leaving and someone was going to replace him, what did you think?

Tina: Actually, we didn't know about this until after we came back from Italy. Jon didn't tell us before and neither did Simon Fuller so we really didn't get the chance to think about it anyway.

News of The World: Paul, in an old profile book of S Club Six Pack? Is that because you work out a lot?

Paul: At the time I was working out a lot because I felt it was needed in this line of business, otherwise you'll get reports on S Club's big belly or something. In fact most of us worked out a lot in the beginning.

Daily Mirror: Bradley, could it be possible that you are secretly dating someone and your just not telling us?

Brad: Defiantly! I mean I have lots of secret women you don't know about. Nah, if I had a girl I would boast about it so I don't have any secret women.

Daily Mail: Paul, you were in a band at school, what were they called and what type of music did you play?

Paul: Well it was called Skua and we played kind of metal rap at the time. It was really known then but it seems to be more successful now. A bit like Rage Against The Machine!

Daily Mail: Do you ever wish you stayed with them?

Paul: No, not now I'm in S Club. I love being in S Club and I would never consider leaving and signing with another record label.

Johnny and the rest of them turned to look at Paul.

Daily Mail: Was that directed at Johnny, Paul?

Paul: No, I just miss phrased it!

The Mirror: Rachel, why did you dye your hair blonde?

Rachel: I just wanted a change really, and someone told me I would probably look like just as good a blonde as I do a brunette and I wanted to see if they were right.

The Mirror: Who was it and where they right?

Rachel: It was Johnny and I think he was right.

The Mirror: On rare days of, what do you like to get up to?

Rachel: Talk to the press of course. Just chill out really. Like catch up with friends, go shopping and visiting my family.

The Mirror: And does being the sexiest woman in Britain effect dating?

Rachel: I wouldn't know, as I've been with Paul while I was voted sexiest woman in Britain. I do get a lot more male attention though.

The Sun: Hannah, you're portrayed as the short one in the band, are you actually that small?

Hannah: Well I am not the shortest in the band but it doesn't really bother me that I am portrayed as short. It's probably got something to do with the fact my boyfriend happens to be the tallest in the band.

The Sun: And in your life, what would you say is your most embarrassing moment?

Hannah laughed as a few other members of S Club did as well, knowing what Han was going to say.

Hannah: Probably when I wrote into Jim'll fix it and asked if I could meet the Care bears because I thought they were real. Luckily that was a long time ago though.

News of the World: Tina, What were your first impressions of the band, and of Johnny when he finally arrived?

Tina: Well my first impression was they all looked so young. And my first impression of Johnny was that there was no way I was lucky enough to be able to work with him.

News of the World: Jo, seeing as you obviously have a great voice, have you ever considered going solo?

Jo: I'll consider it when S Club splits. Simple as that!

News of the World: And Brad, you're a great rapper and your into that kind of music, do you ever see yourself going in that direction in the future?

Brad: If I were a great rapper, G-Dep would have talked to me and not Johnny. Yeah, I enjoy that kind of music and I may go in that direction in the future but I don't consider myself a great rapper.

News of the World: And Jon, being the youngest in the band, do you ever relies on the others?

Jon: I did at the beginning because I was so new to it all but so were some of the others. However Brad, Johnny and Jo all had some experience with it so we sort of relied on them.

News of the World: And finally, Stacey! How have you found your transaction from a normal ordinary girl into a famous actress?

Stacey: It wasn't very quick at first so it was all right. I got a bit of recognition for my performances in S Club in Hollywood. But then suddenly I was getting movie offers and at first it was very overwhelming. But I had these guys to stand by me and they helped me get a good agent. So it wasn't as hard as I would have thought.

Representative: Well if that is all then I believe this press conference is officially..

Daily Star: Wait a minute? I have just one more question!

Representative: Okay, you can ask your question?

Daily Star: Okay, now is it true that you Johnny have actually been with more than one member of S Club in a relationship, seeing as you fancied all the women? In fact I don't know why I am asking like that. Is it not true that you dated Tina before dating Hannah? Well I already know the answer because I have proof that you either dated Tina or cheated on Hannah with her. I doubt you cheated because I also have proof that Hannah dated Paul before dating you and Paul dating Rachel. Do any of you care to deny it or tell me what has been going on?

All of the members of S Club including Stacey looked at each other as the Daily Star reporter smirked from result of the silence.

Daily Star: Looks like I am right doesn't it fellow reporters?
