Georges Pov; 


Quackity saying he made the song was a genius idea, then Dream will never know I made it! And Q too, I really hope Dream doesn't remember the memory as well as I do, I'm sure he went know..I hope he won't know.

I pick up the messy song sheet, the chorus has to be my favorite part of it all, he did great forming my messy thoughts into actual words, on actual paper too! I grab my pen and start re writing the words so its more readable and then there we have it, now all it needs is a title..hmm

maybe Green eyes, no that's dumb.

OH, maybe mind taker- okay no..

What about 'Stay' YES THAT'S IT



--------

I'm meeting with Karl at the studio right now, hell, he's the one that's gonna be singing this to Dream, and Dreams gonna be singing it too but even the fans will think Karl wrote it about Dream probably, it's still pretty funny how everyone thinks they like each other, they couldn't be more off...right?

Karl gets out of his Tesla, skipping and all happy, that's one thing about Karl everyone can appreciate, the energy he brings is infectious and bubbly, and I love it. He comes up to me and holds his hand out, confused I tilt my head at him, then it comes back, oh yeah, our handshakeee

My hand mirrors his as he adds silly little sound effects to make the handshake cooler then he sits down and rests his head on his hands on his, ''sooo Gogs, what up'' 

''Well Karl, I actually wrote the song, its called 'Stay,' and I know Q said he did, and that's only because-'' Karl smiles and finishes the sentence for me, ''Because it's about Dreammm'' I- WHAT My breath gets caught in my throat, how did he.. ''George chill, it's sorta obvious to everyone ever, except Dream himself apparently and the fans, but they're gonna go crazy for this one-'' I nod to him and my breathing slows down, good. 



We get around and everyone's here now, Quackity had just walked in, Karl and I have been here for two hours, just getting to know each other better and we may have played Mario party, which I found out he's the best at, I only won once...out of 8 games!!  

I see Dream and my heart speeds up, god I hope he doesn't find out it's about him..please.



Dreams pov; I got the whole song memorized, and so does Karl, yet again I know were gonna kill this, we work so well together, and plus Sap, George, and Q get to sing a tiny in this, that's gonna be fun, truly Genius idea of Quackity to put there voices as a backup, and fun too as always, Karl comes to the curtain of the stage and stands there, that's a thing he loves to do, he said he doesn't like coming out with the band, it's more fun to be hidden at first, so in a way, Karl reminds me of Batman- anyways, I walk onto the stage with Sapnap and we do a little fist bump, we do this right before every performance, at the same time, you could hear the excitement in the fans screams, how have I not got a headache at least once yet-  

I grab the mic, as usual, and say the introduction, ''Guys thank you so, so much for coming, today's song was going to be LDQ, we're gonna save it for next time, but Quackitys made a fresh song for today, so without further due, here's our new song, 'Stay.''

More cheers happen and I take a breath in, you've got this...

Taking the mic back up to my mouth and angling it, I start to sing.

''Sun's goin' down, we're driving around Losin'

track of time before you're out

Wish I could freeze this beautiful scene

But it just melts'' 

I see Karl walking onto the stage and he's nervous, I mouth a 'you got this' which makes his smile, then I let him take over.

''Lost in a sea, your eyes golden green
Staring as your fingers leave my hands

Wanted to follow wherever you go
I just can't right now, but

You're always on my mind
But it's fine, I'm not cryin'
I hate sayin' goodbye
I've been lyin', I'm not fine

I just wanted you to stay!''


He's looking straight at me, his voice had aggression filled in the last line, and now iv gotta add my voice to match his. I see Karl jumping up, and right as the beat happens, he lands.

''When you're not so close to me
Feels like I forget how to breathe
Too many times I've played it cool
While I watch you leave''

You can hear everything,  the taps of Q's drums, Karls clapping on his mic, the fans finding the beat and clapping along with it too. 


I don't know how, but our voices collide even better than in all of the other performances. 


''I just wanted you to stay
When you're not so close to me
It plays like a sad song on repeat
And too many times I've played the fool
'Cause I watched you leave''

Karl lets go of singing, having me sing this next part, our voices disconnecting;


''Sun's goin' down, haven't made a sound
My tongue caught on to the words trapped in my mouth
Wish I could say what I need to say, darling
I just can't right now, but You're always on my mind But it's fine, I'm not cryin' I hate sayin' goodbye I've been lyin', I'm not fine...I just wanted you to stay''

I know I'm excited about what's gonna happen next, and at the moment Q is popping off on the drums, all the fans are facing him, and he's gleaming back at them. He leans over to the much while still playing, Karl grabs his mic  and so does Sapnap and George, all of us wait for Quackity to say the line, and then we all start to sing


''I just wanted you to stay
When you're not so close to me
Feels like I forget how to breathe
Too many times I've played it cool
While I watch you leave''

The fans roar with excitement, I don't think we've ever all sang together, so let's keep it going, I give a thumbs up and turn back to the crowd, looking to my left, I see Karl jumping up and down to the beat, I walk near him, singing directly at him and I give him a grin, turning to my right I see  Sapnap clapping at his microphone, and then I walk near George, still singing I see him and I stay close to him while singing, he keeps nodding his head to the beat along with Quackity. It's all so exhilarating.


''I just wanted you to stay
When you're not so close to me
It plays like a sad song on repeat
And too many times I've played the fool
'Cause I watched you leave
I just wanted you to stay.''

Were all exhausted by the energy that makes it all with it, the only things you're able to hear now are Quackuys drums;

The lyrics remind me of something, I just cant place my mind on what...



You can for sure tell this is rushed, sorry guys!-A
