Scene starts in the canteen. Joe and Demi are now in the canteen going to sit with Adele and Ethan for lunch.

Adele: Hey, how was maths?

Demi: Not great to be honest.

Adele: How'd you mean?

Demi: Jesse and Lacey were more bitchy than usual and said some horrid things, but who cares I guess.

Ethan: Did they get in trouble?

Demi: Sir gave them detention yeah, but still doesn't take the hurt away.

Joe: I would've said something but Sir beat me to it.

Ethan: At least they got detention though and they didn't get away with it.

Demi: Yeah I guess you're right.

Adele: Hey, how about we go to music? That might cheer you up?

Joe: Yeah good idea. That'll cheer you up a bit Dem.

Demi: Yeah okay, let's go then. Not you though Joe, your playing is awful

Joe: Hey! I tried to play the piano!

Adele: Yeah and you failed miserably.

Joe: Okay that's fair.

All laugh

Demi and Adele make their way to the music room

Mr Smith: Hey Demi, you're back!

Demi: Yeah! What've I missed out on?

Mr Smith: Not too much, mainly getting you lot to write songs at the minute, and I guess you already have been doing that.

Demi: Yeah, I have.

Mr smith: I knew it! Right, I would love to chat more but I have a meeting so gotta bounce.

Mr Smith exits

Demi moves over to the piano

Demi: Hey Adele, can you do the pedal if I play?

Adele: Yeah sure.

Demi begins to play "Fight Song" by Rachel Platten

Demi: (singing) "Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep,

Everybody's worried about me

In too deep

Say I'm in too deep

And it's been two years, I miss my home,

But there's a fire burning in my bones

Still believe

Yeah I still believe."

Demi carries on singing until end of chorus - finish on "A lot of fight left in me"

Adele: Wow. I forgot how good your voice was.

Demi: (Laughs) Thanks. And thanks for doing the pedal by the way.

Adele: You don't need to thank me Dem, you're my best friend.

Demi: I know, I know but still want to. Very grateful for you.

Adele: Aww. I'm grateful for you too Dem. That song was incredible too.

Demi: Thanks. Realised songs like that mean so much more now cause of the accident.
