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.
::Record Studios::
Rachel, Bradley, Jo and Paul were all sitting in the Recording Studio talking
while Johnny was doing his vocals for the song he wrote Make It Happen. Hannah,
Jon and Tina had not yet arrived. Rachel and Paul are sitting next to each other
and facing Bradley and Jo who are doing the same.
Bradley: Come on Jo! Aren't you going to tell us the surprise then?
Jo: I don't know what you're talking about?
She did know, you could tell by the smile on her face.
Rachel: Just tell us Jo!
Jo: All right, calm down will you. Lee flew out and met me while we were filming
Go Wild and he proposed. I am now engaged.
Paul: Congratulations!
Rachel: Yeah, that is so cool.
The three S Club members all get up and congratulate Jo. When they sit back
down again Hannah comes in.
Hannah: I just heard the great news. Jon and Tina told me!
Hannah now hugs and congratulates Jo, while Johnny is still singing his vocals.
Hannah: I wish someone would fly somewhere to be with me, give me an engagement
ring and then whisk me off on a week holiday together.
Paul and Rachel have since split after the arrival of Hannah, one on each side
of the room.
Paul: You never told us about the holiday bit Jo.
Hannah sits down next to Paul. They had got together the weekend when they came
back. The whole band already knew as news travels in this band.
Jo: I was much more interested in the S Club couple namely yourselves.
Bradley: How did Lee afford all of that?
Jo: I don't think he did.
Jo points in Johnny's direction and the whole group nod their heads.
Rachel: That is why he knew the surprise. Han, weren't you coming with Jon and
Tina?
Hannah: Yeah, I did. They are outside.
Rachel: Why are they outside?
Hannah: Jon is giving Tina a kind of pep talk. Let's just say she is a bit nervous
about what she plans to do.
Hannah gets up and walks over to the screen that Johnny is behind and watches
him sing. Before today she hadn't even thought about Johnny, as she was so busy
in her new relationship with Paul. Now all the feelings have rushed back as
she watches him singing the song he wrote for Tina. Wishing it was a song for
her.
Tina: Great singer isn't he?
Hannah turns round to see Tina standing next to her also looking at Johnny who
is unaware of the attention that is being given to him.
Hannah: Yeah, you should feel lucky when you hear this song from now on.
Tina: Why?
Hannah: He wrote it about you! He hoped it would encourage you to finally get
with him.
Tina: I don't need any more encouragement.
They stood there, soon joined by the rest of the band just watching Johnny sing
seeing as they had nothing else to do.
I'll wait for you
To Ring my Bell, I want you to
So don't be late
Quit playing games, don't hesitate
Sound Editor: Alright Johnny, take five!
Johnny: All right.
Johnny turns after taking his headphones off and sees the other 7 members of
S Club just looking at him. He smiles and then walks out. Before anyone can
say or do anything Tina walks up to Johnny and puts her arms around his neck
before pulling him in and giving him a kiss. At first Johnny doesn't react,
surprised as much as the rest of the band apart from Jon. Some of the staff
also stop and stare as Johnny starts to kiss back before Tina finally comes
up for air.
Johnny: Do I need to ask what that was for?
He smiles down at her and she smiles back shaking her head.
Johnny: I didn't think so!
They kiss once again as the band cheer and go and congratulate another couple
within the band. All but Hannah who stays backs and watches them all. Then she
slowly goes over and congratulates them. The band then all sit down and talk
amongst themselves in groups. Hannah, Johnny, Tina and Bradley talk on the sofa,
Tina leaning her head on Johnny's shoulder. Jo and Jon are sitting on the floor
nearby and are talking and Rachel and Paul are on the other side of the room
out of hearing range.
Rachel: I hate this!
Paul: Hate what?
Rachel: I hate not being with you. I have hated it since the night we spent
together.
Paul: I hate it as well but think what would have happened to the band if I
didn't get together with Hannah after all the band new we were getting close.
The first chance I get to dump Hannah without ruining the band I will take it,
I promise.
Rachel: Good, cause I'm not sure how long I could take seeing you two together.
I'm just glad you still feel the same way as you did when we were alone. I was
afraid you would stop feeling this way for me when we got back.
Paul takes Rachel's hands in his and looks into her eyes.
Paul: I felt that way about you before we went to Nairobi. I felt this way since
the beginning of the band but you were always with someone.
Rachel smiles back to Paul but the Sound Editor suddenly interrupts them.
Sound Editor: Johnny and Hannah, we'll record your bit next.
Rachel and Paul look over to the sound editor and then to the rest of the guys.
Looking right back at them unnoticed by the other guys is Johnny, not looking
too happy.
Johnny: I think it would be better you go over Hannah's part with her first.
I'm just going for a walk.
Sound Editor: No problem, come on Han.
Hannah gets up and walks into the recording part of the studio as Johnny looks
at Rachel and Paul awhile longer and then gets up of the sofa he is sitting
on.
Tina: Do you want me to come with you?
Johnny: It's all right thanks.
Tina: Okay then, I'll see you later.
Johnny: Yeah.
Johnny walks out of the door and the rest look at each other for a bit until
the door closes behind him.
Bradley: What's wrong with Johnny? Something different ever since the sound
guy called him and Hannah.
Tina: Yeah, I noticed. You don't think he is having second thoughts already.
Jon: I'm sure that isn't it.
Bradley: Yeah, he talked about you so much when we were filming Go Wild. It
is not that.
Tina: Then what is it?
Jo: It might be nothing. We could just be imagining it.
Jon: All four of us imagining it. I don't think so.
Paul: I'm just going out for a second.
Tina: What for?
Paul takes a packet of cigarettes out of his pocket, which gives Tina her answer
as he gets out of the chair he was sitting on.
Rachel: I'll join you.
Rachel gets up as well as they both leave the room.
Bradley: Why is everyone leaving? Do I smell or something?
Jon: Not that I have noticed.
Bradley: It must be you then!
The remaining band laugh slightly as Jon throws a cushion at Bradley.
