Lets Get It

As Scarlett walked in Deedee was in the middle of reaching up then reaching down to her feet.

"Hey! I won't worry! But come on and do some stretches. You know what they say not doing stretches is a dancers down fall."

She smiled and dropped to the floor with her to stretch out her legs. Parting them she bent over and pulled one to her.

"My day have been pretty good. How about yours? I'm going to assume good, since I a smile painted on your face." She teased the red headed girl as she stopped what she was doing.

"You got to see him huh?"

Suzu's day had been pretty uneventful aside from an arguement with her sister. Small spats were pretty common between them and they usually made up after a few hours, but the arguement had been about their mother and it had left a bad taste in Suzu's mouth. With classes done for today and having skipped out on the Host Club after the fight, she realized she had some time to kill before work. She had a television appearance tonight. She was debuting a new song and she was nervous as hell.

She decided practice was the best decision so she high tailed it for the auditorium hoping to get rid of the butterflies in her stomach. As she approached the door, the sound of loud music caught her ears. Seems she wasn't the only one. Not sure who it was, she quickly pulled her wig and her mask from her bag, carefully putting them in place. Best be careful considering this wasn't blocked off for the club.

She slowly opened the door and peered inside, grinning when she realized it was Scarlet and Yamazaki-senpai. Feeling a little more comfortable, she slid into the room, closing the door carefully behind her. She didn't want to disturb them. When the song was done, though, she clapped enthusiastically.

"That was great! Ya'll are gonna KILL it in the showcase!"

Suzu hadn't decided whether she was going to actually take part or not. She wanted to, but she was sure her producer would say no and come up with some job to keep her busy. He didn't even know she was in the club at school.

When she heard enthusiastic clapping from someone in the audience she looked up, smile vanishing and lips pressing together, concerned, but she relaxed when she realized it was... what did she go by? Phantom menace? Kamen Song? Whatever, she was the masked one! She was sure it was phantom something though... It was a good thing she was here though! Deedee wouldn't pursue the topic of 'he who would not be named' with mask girl around! 

"Ah, thanks Kamen-Senpai!" She held her hands tightly in front of her and looked down before looking back up, "I hope we do as well as you seem to think we might do!" 

At the nudge from Deedee she smiled and nudged her back, "Deedee flatters me but really she's the better dancer really."

At Deedee's question to the girl, Scarlett nodded along with her. "Yes, I'm sure you'd be great if you were performing... but then again, you've already been talent spotted so I suppose you don't have too." She moved over and sat down on the edge of the stage, squinting up at mask girl. She waved a hand, "Come on! We don't bite! Come join us!" She seemed... familiar. Really familiar... She tilted her head, leaning forward to rest her elbows on her knees and rest her chin in her hands, watching mask girl with interest, "We can all discuss what we're going to do for the show case!" 

"What he don't know won't hurt him." Deedee said as she sat down on the edge. She looked at the girl before trying to figure out with it was. But after a few seconds she stopped trying. If it was meant for her to know then she would know. Other then that she didn't care.

"I'm pretty sure the rest of us will be fine " She already knew that the others wouldn't care. Everyone had their own little unique thing to them, so was impossible someone to get out shined.

Moving around a bit pulled at her shorts again. "So Scarlett what else are you going to perform?"

Suzu bit her lip. Scarlet was certainly right and so was Deedee. The members of the idol club were amazing and could stand out on their own. She didn't need to worry and her producer could deal if he didn't like it. She pushed a few strands of her wig behind her ear and nodded emphatically. "You're right."

She jumped off the stage and started stretching. "Do you two mind if I practice, too?" she asked with a smile. She waited for an answer and for Deedee to allow her use of the speakers. When her turn rolled around, she took position, waiting or the que. Her body started to move and her voice filled the air as she began to sing.

"If I fade away into eternity then would you finally see me? You barely even talk to me. You're always such a busy guy.Day by day I'm all alone, so I stare into the sky. I want to go back to the better days when I was still within your heart. I know I can't, and it's tearing me apart. Throbbing, throbbing, throbbing, in distress. Thumping, thumping, thumping, can't you hear it in my heart; my pounding chest? I just can't move on now, I don't wanna lose you now; I'm such a mess. I can't even dance whenever we're apart because of all the misery. Can't you see? Broken strings of all our bonds that we once knew. Even if my heart breaks I'll still love you. Maybe if I act like I don't care about you then you'll finally see me. You haven't noticed yet.. Am I just a marionette? Even when I try to let my feelings through, it seems they never can reach you. Can't you see? It kills me and there's nothing that I can do. Even if my heart breaks I'll still love you."

When the dance ended, she panted heavily, a weak smile on her face. She stepped out of the way and grabbed her phone, letting one of the others take their turn. She sat down, her legs swinging back and forth as she watched, making sure not to swing them enough to pound against the stage.

(Dance with vocal reference The english lyrics are singable, btw.)

When mask girl went off to practice, Scarlett couldn't help but feel slightly disappointed. She hadn't reacted at all to what she said... which meant either she wasn't who Scarlett thought she was... or she didn't notice what she'd actually said. It seemed like she just couldn't be subtle with anyone these days! What a pain! 

"No, go ahead." She murmured when she asked if she could practice and she stood up, grabbed her bag, and headed off the stage to the front row of seats. 

She looked up at Deedee when she spoke and as soon as she mentioned 'he who would not be named' she squinted her eyes and pressed her lips together. "Don't you dare. Don't mention him, just--" She held her hands up and breathed out slowly, "You're cruel." She looked away, "So harsh."

When mask girl finished, Scarlett looked up and smiled again, shifting so she was curled up in her seat, "So Kamen-Senpai, Deedee's clearly right, you have to be in the showcase." She tapped her bottom lip, "If you're coming Kamen-Senpai we'll have to invite everyone! Maybe we could get some of the girls in the hostess club to come and see!" Again, she seemed pretty happy but was trying to gauge a reaction.
