"okay! coming up next we've got tatiana and tori vega and andré harris, performing an original song written by tatiana!" a hollywood arts teacher announced. "give it up for them everybody!"
there was applause and cheering as we hogged over to center stage.
"this is an original song i wrote for uh-" i spoke into the mic, but was interrupted by tori.
"-for our dog!"
i nodded. "i love my dog..."
"one, two, three, four!"
"i guess i should stop, looking out for you, like i always do, when will you... start looking out for me too, instead of leaving me staring at my shoes it's just the way you're glancing at me, something about you, just makes me feel guilty for... liking you when you're with him when you're with him this is a love song for a girl- who will never know it's about her, i know it's pretty stupid... but i'm much too shy to tell her she's beaming that smile, all the while i'm all tripped up on my own throat i guess there is no hope
when you're walking out in the snow, i say i guess i should go- and we're talking about someone else, when we should be talking about ourselves it's the same old situation, you've always got me waiting, come on dear i think times a wastin' before we have to go back inside and return to our normal lives...
this is a love song for a girl who will never know it's about her, i know it's pretty stupid, but i'm much too shy to tell her she's beaming that smile all the while i'm all tripped up on my own throat i guess there is no hope!"
i had my eyes on jade the whole time, which kinda baited me out, but i was sure she wouldn't be able to tell. she just looked so pretty there, under the lights, snapping along to the music- snuggled next to beck...

after our performance was over, the group came over to congratulate us.
"wow, that song was amazing!"
"great job!"
"that's was so good, oh my god!"
i thanked everyone and jade approached me to give me a hug. i might have held onto her for a little too long because she gave me a look after she pulled away and i saw beck watching us in the corner of his eye.
"hey! they got spaghetti tacos over there!" robbie piped up, breaking the silence.
"woo, let's go!"
we began to make our way over to the food truck, but jade pulled me back by my sleeve. "tati, can i talk to you? actually, i'm not asking- i'm saying. let's talk."
"uh sure-" i nodded, although the others were taking no notice of us, their attention panned to the (unusual but delicious) treat.
