Chapter 17 Valentines Week

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Urgh" was the only noise that sounded through the room.

"What's going in here?" Mr Shue enquired looking slightly confused.

---------------------------

"Alright guys we need to go full on valentines day on the girls" Finn explained. Rachel, who had just arrived from New York look very confused.

"Why what's a happening?" she said in her Phany Bryce voice. It made me laugh a little.

"They're like on an anti-valentines day war path" Finn explained. Something immediately changed in Rachel, she had just clicked into her fearless leader role.

"Well this is what we're going to do. Ryder, Jake you're going to take Effy and Marley since they're the main figures for the girls I'm guessing..." She would be right in guessing that, was it that obvious that my girlfriend would be in charge of this.

"...and the rest of us will do a group number for the rest of the girls" Rachel finished. It was a pretty good plan and I was surprised that she thought of it so fast but if it didn't work what then? No valentines day or week at all, ever again. Just because Principal Sue had a personal vendetta against Mr Shue. I had to hit Ef with all that I had, now just to think of a really romantic song.

---------------------------

"Why am I in here?" Effy asked me as she joined me on the auditorium stage.

"I wanted to at least sing one song with you this week" I explained. She groaned.

"Why?" she growled.

"Because you're my girlfriend, I love you and it's valentines week" I replied. She sighed, giving me a sure sign she had given in. I nodded to the band, who started playing seconds later.

"Ryder:

See the stone

Set in your eyes

See the thorn

Twist in your side

I wait for you

Sleight of hand

And twist of fate

On a bed of nails

She makes me wait

And I wait without you

I can't live with or without you

I can't live with or without you" Effy joined in.

"Effy:

Through the storm

We reach the shore

You give it all

But I want more

And I'm waiting for you

I can't live with or without you

I can't live with or without you

I can't live...

I can't live with or without you

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give...

And you give...

And you give yourself away

Both:

My hands are tied
