Prologue: I wanna be a rock star!
Friday, 05.00 P.M, Sunset Valley’s Sport Stadium.
At the stadium, a concert would be held and almost everyone in the town came to watched it. At a corner, a little girl, around 10 years old, was seen sitting alone waiting for someone. “Gosh, the concert is about to start and he hasn't came yet.” the girl said. She then bought a juice and drank it. "Hmm, tasty!" she said.
Unknown to her, a boy walked approaching her from behind. He then patted the girl’s shoulder, surprising her. "Hey Tamera!" the boy said.
“Great woolly llamas, Chris, you scared me!” the girl said. The boy's name was Christopher Redfield, or most commonly known as Chris while the girl’s was Tamera Gerardo. “Ha ha ha, I'm sorry Tamera” Chris said laughing. “What you took so long?” Tamera asked.
“I’m sorry, my mom told me that I must finish my homework first, so...” Chris answered explaining. “I see..” Tamera said, “Hey, I thought you said Charlie would come too, where is he?”. “Oh, Charlie won’t be able to come, dad brought him to the doctor after he suddenly got nausea” Chris explained, “Huh, what happen to him?” Tamera asked. “He ate some spoiled ice cream” Chris explained. “Oh, hope he will get better soon” Tamera said.
“Hey, I think the concert is about to start!” Chris said seeing entering the stadium. “You are right!” Tamera said. “Let’s enjoy this, this night will be a rocking night!” Chris exclaimed. He then ran, entering the stadium, followed by Tamera, “Hey Chris, wait!” Tamera said.
The concert started, everyone cheered, enjoying the music. Chris seemed very happy since the band was his favorite. “Aw man, I hope I can be like them!” he thought, “I wanna be a ROCK STAR!”
Chapter 1: First Day In High School
Four years later.
It was the most exciting day for Chris and Charlie Redfield. This day was their first day as high school students.
“Chris, Charlie, are you two awake yet!?” Lily Redfield knocked Chris and Charlie’s room, calling for her sons. “Yes mom!” Chris and Charlie answered in unison. “Hurry, you don't want to be late for your first day in high school right?” Lily asked. “Sure!” Chris said.
“Man, I can not believe we’re finally high schoolers Chris!” Charlie exclaimed. “Yeah me too” Chris said putting his books on his bag.
Several minutes later, the school bus arrived in front of the Redfield house. “Okay, there’s the bus” Chris said “See you later mom!” “Chris, Charlie, wait!” Lily said stopping them. “What’s wrong?” Charlie asked. Lily then approached them. “Well, uh nothing, I just still don’t believe that you two are already grown up” Lily said. “Aw mom, don’t be so dramatic” Chris said. “Sorry, I’m just so happy to see my four children already grown up!" Lily said wiping her tears “Your sisters are already in college, and now you two are high school students” Chris and Charlie didn’t said anything, they only smiled. “And I’m old already” “Oh mom, you are still 46, not that old” Chris said.
“Oh, well, okay, it seems that you have everything you need, so uh, have fun at school” Lily said. “Sure, bye mom!” Chris and Charlie said in unison, entering the bus.
Inside the bus, Chris and Charlie greeted by their friend, Sam Sekemoto. “Yo Yo Chris and Charlie! Wassup!?” he said, greeting them like a rapper.
“Hi bro, how was your vacation?” Chris asked. “It’s fun, the girls in Isla Paradiso are so beautiful, ya’ know?” Sam said "I even dated one of them!" “Dude, can you just stop talking like a rapper? Your rapping sucks!” Charlie said, feeling annoying about Sam's rapper style.
Several minutes later.
Everyone finally arrived in the school. “Hey Chris, do you have a plan joining an after school activity?” Charlie asked. “Yeah, I really want to join the music club” Chris said “And to join the school’s band”. “I see...” Charlie said. “And how about you? Do you want to join an after school activity?” Chris asked. “Well, I don’t know, I haven’t decided yet” Charlie said.
The bell rang, the first class was about to started. “Well, first period is about to start, see you later bro!” Chris said separating way with Charlie since they were in different classes.
On his way to his class...
“Hello Chris” someone greeted him. It was an Arabic/Chinese-descent girl with tan skin, purple eyes, and her hair tied in a ponytail... It was Tamera.
Chris was stunned for a moment. “Oh, h-hi Tamera, how’s your vacation?” Chris asked. “Well, it was so fun” Tamera said. “Really? Nice to hear that” Chris said. “By the way, is this your class too? I never expected that we would be in same class” Tamera said. “Yeah, I know right?” Chris said. “Hey, it seems that the teacher is already here, let’s get in, shall we?” Tamera said as she noticed that the teacher was already approaching to the class.
Chapter 2: An Old Friend
Meanwhile in the City Hall.
Sunset Valley’s new mayor John Redfield was seen reading a newspaper in his room when someone knocked his door. It was his secretary. “Mr. Mayor, your guest is here” John’s secretary said. “Well, let him in” John ordered.
“Johny, long time no see!” a tall, muscular middle-aged man entered the room. “Walter, long time no see buddy!” John said giving friendly hug to him. The name was Walter West, John’s old friend when he was in high school. He was SimNation’s legendary rock star.
“How’re you doing right now after you retired from music indutry?” John asked. “Well, actually I’m not really retired from music industry, I’m only retired from my band” Walter explained “Now, I’m a manager of a band called The Frightful Four”.
“The Frightful Four? You mean the band which made their magnificent debut two months ago That’s cool!” John said “I’m a fan of them! I never know that you are their manager”. “Ha ha, thanks for supporting The Frightful Four dude” Walter said.
“By the way, how’s your family?” Walter asked. “Oh, well, my wife is still working in Hogan’s Deep Fried Dinner. She’s a line cook now. My daughters, Leona and Jean are in university and My son Chris and also my adopted son Charlie are now in their first day as high school students”.
“I see...” Walter said “By the way John, I heard that your son, Chris has talent in music, is that true?”. “Chris? Oh, yeah, he always told me that he really wanted to become a rock star too” John said “Everyday he always listening to rock music and even make a cover of some songs and upload it on SimTube”. “Is everyone like it?” Walter said. “Yeah, he got many likes for the video he uploaded” John said “Here, I will show you”.
John then accessed The SimTube site and show Walter a video showing Chris made a cover of The SixAM Crew’s Middle Finger song. “Whoa, your son is great!” Walter exclaimed, "He has a talent!". “Yeah, thanks” John said. “Can I meet him?” Walter asked “I really want to see his skill directly”. “Well, I will tell him later” John said.

Chris then took the money from his wallet and gave it to Darlene.
“Okay it’s 36 Simmoleons, thank you for shopping here” Darlene said.
As Chris and Charlie about to left the store...
“Hi Chris, hi Charlie” a girl with long, sandy-colored hair greeted them. It was Sandra French, or better known as Sandi. “Hi there Sandi, you want to buy something?” Chris said. “No, I’m here to sell some of my old stuffs” Sandi said “Hey, you buy a new guitar, that’s cool”.
“Thanks” Chris said “My old guitar is broken a week ago, so I decide to buy a new one”.

She really needs my help” Sandi said. “Oh, okay, maybe next time?” Charlie said in a little disappointed. “Sure” Sandi said, smiling.
“Hey Charlie, I think we should go home now” Chris said looking at his watches. “Oh, well, if that so, see you tomorrow Sandi!’ Charlie said. “Okay, see you tomorrow!” Sandi said.
At their way home.
“Hey Charlie, can I ask you something?” Chris said. “Sure, go ahead bro” Charlie said. “What make you like Sandi so much?” Chris asked. “Uh, I don’t know, I just attracted to her when I first saw her four years ago” Charlie said “She’s really pretty and kind, maybe that’s why I like her”.
“If four years ago I gave you a girl’s name and made you turned into a girl, would you still had feeling for her?” Chris asked. “I don’t know, maybe yes, or maybe no” Charlie said.
“However, there’s one thing I worried about” Charlie said. “Huh what is it?” Chris asked. “If Sandi know that I’m not really a human, do you think she will never talk to me again?” Charlie asked. “Uh, I have no idea” Chris said, “The only one outside our family who knew your secret is Tamera since she helped me found the Rainbow Gem for you, remember?”
“I’m start to thinking that maybe I will tell Sandi myself as soon as I can” Charlie said “I hope she’s not afraid of me when she see my toy form”.
Chris didn’t said anything, he only nodded.

“There will be a bonfire party in my dorm, wanna come?” Bella asked. “A Bonfire party? That’s cool!” Leona said “Hey Jean, maybe we should come”. “Sorry, I have to focus to finish my paper right now, maybe next time” Jean said. “You really a hard worker Jean” Bella said “I’m sure you can be a good doctor in the future”. “She inherited this trait from dad” Leona said.
Leona then took a newspaper and read it. “Hey look, there’s an article about Annie here!” Leona said.

They then separated, Leona and Bella went to the party while Jean returned to her dorm.
“You know Bella, it’s been two years since we enrolled in this university and haven’t meet our other friends yet, I wonder how’re they doing right now” Leona said, “Hey, how’re Mortimer and Malcolm in Sim State University?”.
“Well, since Mortimer is my boyfriend so I always knew what he’s doing right now” Bella said “He often contact me. Yesterday he sent me this” Bella showed a photo of Mortimer in her cellphone. “What the... Ha ha ha, is that Mortimer? He has a moustache now!” Leona said laughing. “Yeah, but he’s still handsome right” Bella said “Speaking about boyfriend, how’s Enrico doing? Is he still in training in the Sunset-Valley’s police academy right now?”.
“Several days ago, he told me that his six months training already ended, he’s a traffic cop right now” Leona said. “Really? That’s great!” Bella exclaimed. “Yeah, I was so happy when heard it. After two years waiting, he finally got his chance to join the Law Enfocement career” Leona said “As you know, he was working in grocery store before finally enrolled in the academy”.
“Yeah I know that” Bella said “Oh I also have some news about Kaylynn in Academia Le Toure. It seems that she now engaged with her professor” Bella said. “Really? Wait, they’re on relationship for these whole times?” Leona asked. “Well, I don’t know about the detail, but when Kaylynn sent me a picture of her fiance, I surprised that he’s still young and yeah, I admit he’s handsome too, she said that her professor is somewhat popular among the girls there” Bella said. “When will they maried?” Leona asked curiously. “She said they might married after she graduated” Bella answered.
“Hey Dina also called me yesterday, it seemed that she and Nina enjoyed their time in their university, and as usual, they still flirt with guys, Dina even had many boyfriends” Leona said “Well, yeah, some things never changed”. “I always wonder what major they take in their university”. “They both in Fine Art major if I recall” Leona said.
“The only person we lost contact with is...” Bella said. “Yeah, Alex Curtiz” Leona said “It’s been four and half years since he moved out from Sunset Velly to Roaring Heighs, we even don’t know where or what is he doing right now”. “Jean must be missed him so much” Bella said, Leona only nodded.
“It might surprising if he also enrolled in this university and suddenly appear before us” Bella said. “But he’s not” Leona said.
“Hi Leona, hi Bella” a tomboyish girl in a blue-yellow jacket greeted them, it was Astrid Toadstool, she also enrolled in this university, along with Leona, she took Physical Education. “Hi Astrid” Leona and Bella greeted her back in unison. “Where are you two going?” Astrid asked. “We will go to my dorm, there will be a bonfire party, wanna join?” Bella asked. “Bonfire Party?

Meanwhile in Leona and Jean’s dorm.
Jean turned off her laptop. “Well I think it’s enough for tonight, I’m already tired” she said "I have to sleep now, I will have a class tomorrow at 08.00 A.M".
After changing in to her sleepwear, Jean laid her body on her bed. She then took a photograph on a table next to her bed.
It was a photo of her and Alex Curtiz during the prom night four years ago.
For these years, Alex was never even made a call. Jean herself still loved and couldn’t forget him and always hoped that she would met him again someday.
“I miss you Alex” Jean said hugging the photo.

“Ah, I’m stuffed” Charlie said after eating his breakfast. “So, Charlie, do you already join an afterschool activity yet?” John asked. “Well, I don’t know dad, I can’t decided yet. I want to join the art club, but also interested in music club like Chris” Charlie said. “Why don’t you just join both? The school allow you to join two afterschool activities” Chris said “Considering you have skill in painting and you also can play drum”.
“Well, I will consider that” Charlie said.
“By the way Chris, yesterday my old friend, a band manager told me that he wanted to meet you after I show him your video on SimTube” John said. “Your friend? Band manager? who?” Chris asked. “His name is Walter West, a former rock star” John said. “Wa-Wa-Walter-Wlater West?” Chris surprised “That Walter West? The legendary rock star in his era who is now the manager of The Frightful Four!? WALTER BENJAMIN WEST!?”. “You know him?” John said.
“Of course I know him dad! He’s one of my favorite rock stars! His songs are really... Oh my God... How I can say this? I just like them!” Chris said in excitement. “Well, good to hear that, I never know that the current generation also knew about him” John said “So when can you meet him?”. “Tonight! Please, make it tonight!” Chris said. “Oh, okay, I will contact him, he’s currently in Sunset Valley’s hotel right now” John said. “Oh YEEEES! Charlie, please hit me, I can’t believe I will meet a legendary rock star!” Chris said.
“Errr, I admit that his songs are good. But for me, they are very old-fashioned, not really hardcore” Charlie commented “Well, he’s an old generation afterall”.
“Hey, I think your bus is already here” Lily said after heard a honking noise. “Well, I guess we will go to school now” Chris said. “Okay, take care” Lily and John said.
09.00 A.M.
Chris’ first class was math class. “Ugh, I hate math” Chris grumbled. Chris then looked out of the window. “It seems it will rain” he thought. “Good morning Chris”, someone greeted him, it was Tamera, who took a seat next to him. “Oh, good morning Tamera” Chris greeted Tamera back. Chris then looked at Tamera. “Aww man, she’s so cute” he thought.
“Is there something wrong?” Tamera asked. “Oh nothing, I’m just. Well I think, you are... very beautiful today” Chris said. “Oh, really? Thank you” Tamera said, smiling.
“By the way Chris, do you want to accompany me to meet Mrs. Foster after the class? I want to join the drama club” Tamera said. “Okay sure!” Chris said. “Oh, I heard you join the music club” Tamera said. “Yeah, I really want to join the school’s band” Chris said.
“But I heard there’s no audition for new band member” Tamera claimed. “I know, but Mr. Edward said that I can form my own band if I want since the club allowed it” Chris said “Other members also formed their owns”. “I see...” Tamera said.
“Speaking about band, do you know Walter West?” Chris asked. “Walter West? Well, I just know that he was a legendary rock star in his era and he currently being a manager of a band called The Frightful Four or something” Tamera said “But I never heard his song”.
“Walter West is my father’s old friend, I even didn’t expected this, my dad told me that Walter wanted to meet me” Chris said. “Really? That’s cool!” Tamera said.
As Chris and Tamera enjoyed their conversation, their teacher and the principal entered. Chris looked at the clock. “Huh, I thought we still had 10 minutes until the first class” Chris said. “Yeah, you are right, maybe they have announcement for us” Tamera said.
“Okay class, we have an announcement today” the principal said “Today, you will have a new friend, come from Starlight Shores”.
“Starlight Shores? The town where many famous singers and magicians came from?” everyone whispered.
“Mr. Lewis, please come in and introduced yourself”.
Later, a good-looking teenage boy entered the class with fancy outfit. The class was quiet for a moment, until...
“KYAAAAAAA! Lance Lewis! It’s Lance Lewis!” a girl suddenly screamed hysterically, followed by others. The class became so noisy.
“Lance Lewis? You man that guy is Lance Lewis? That pop teen idol!?” Chris, Sam, and other male students had their jaw dropped.
Lance Lewis was a famous pop teen idol in the SimNation. Almost every teen girls in SimNation were his fans.
“Everyone calm down, CALM DOWN!” the teacher ordered the girls in the class to calmed. But no one listened, they were freaked out seeing their idol now enrolled in their school.
“Everyone... calm... down” Lance suddenly talked. Even though it was in a small tone, it appeared that the girls could heard what he said as they stopped yelling. “Good, you are all good girls” he said.
“Oh my gosh. He’s so charming...” a girl said in excitement.
“Oh, I think I will break up with my boyfriend and dating him instead” another girl said.
"In your dream, nerd" a girl next to her said
“Okay Mr. Lewis, you can take a seat next to Tamera’s there” the teacher said.
“Sure thing” Lance said, he then took a seat next to Tamera. It made every girls in the class jealous.
“Hello there, you must be the one named Tamera right” Lance said. “Oh, yeah, nice to meet you Lance” Tamera said. “Hmm, you are cute” Lance complimented her appearance. “Oh,thanks” Tamera said again.
The two then had a nice conversation and get along well. "You know Tamera, I think I really want to get to know more about you" Lance said. Unknown to them, Chris was watching.
“What the heck? He's just sitting there for less than ten seconds and now he already flirts with Tamera? I think I will keep an eye on him, as precaution if he do something bad to her” Chris thought.
“Looks like someone is jealous, he he he” Sam whispered, teasing Chris.
Chapter 6: Lance Lewis
After the first class ended, Chris accompanied Tamera to meet Mrs. Foster in the teacher’s room. “What’s wrong Chris?” Tamera asked, she noticed that Chris was upset about something. “Uh, what? Nothing” Chris answered. “Are you sure? You seems upset” Tamera said.
“Well, actually, I think I can’t get along with that Lance guy” Chris said “I just, I just dislike him”. “Huh? Why? But I think Lance is a nice person” Tamera said. “Well, uh, are you also fan of him?” Chris asked "Just wondering since you didn't freaked out just like the others". “Me? Well, I have some of his songs in my MP3 and enjoy them, but I’m not really a fan just like the others” Tamera said “I just simply like his songs”.
“Well, good to hear that...” Chris said. “Huh? What do you mean?” Tamera asked. “Oh, no, nothing, ha ha ha! Forget it” Chris said, laughing.
Later, after had a meeting with Mrs. Foster...
“Hello Tamera” someone said calling for Tamera, it was Lance. “Oh hi Lance” Tamera greeted him back, “Is there anything I can do for you?” she asked. “Well you know, I heard there is a good movie in the theater, wanna come with me?” Lance asked in a flirt tone. “Oh, well, I don’t know” Tamera said. “No! She can’t, she’s busy tonight! Let’s go Tamera” Chris said pulling Tamera’s arm, surprising her. “Huh, what? Chris?” Tamera said.
“Whoa whoa whoa, calm down buddy, you hurt her arm” Lance said stopping Chris. Chris then looking at Tamera, he could see that Tamera was felt a little hurt after he pulled her arm like that. “Uh, oh, sorry Tamera” Chris said, releasing Tamera’s arm. “Hey, Tamera, is this guy your boyfriend or something?” Lance asked. “Uh, no, we’re just friends” Tamera answered.
“Oh, I see...” Lance said stared at Chris “...Well, but I think he’s too overprotective for just a friend”. Chris didn’t said anything. “Well, yeah, maybe it’s because we already become friends for a long time, right Chris?” Tamera said. “Wha-Uh, yeah, you are right!” Chris said.
“That means you’re single then?” Lance asked again “Someone wouldn't mind if I take you out on this weekend, right?”. “Uh, well, I don’t know” Tamera said smiling. Chris became more upset. Lance could noticed it. A smirk appeared on his face.
“You know, Tamera, I think you are really my type” Lance said, flirting. “Ha ha ha, thanks” Tamera said.
“Are you sure you don’t wanna watch a movie with me tonight? I will treat you” Lance said “Oh, maybe we can dine at the Bistro after that, and...”. “OKAY THAT’S ENOUGH!” Chris yelled, surprising everyone in the corridor. “Chris?” Tamera said, she confused about Chris who suddenly became upset. “Let’s go to our next class, Tamera!” Chris said, pulling Tamera’s arm again. “Hey, Chris, wait!”.
As the two left, a smirk could be seen in Lance’s face. “Hmph, that Chris guy is really interesting” he thought.
“Chris, hey, hey! STOP!” Tamera said. Chris then stopped. Tamera looked at him in annoyance “What the heck is wrong with you?” she asked.
“I’m sorry Tamera” Chris said “I just really don’t like if someone flirts with you”. “Huh, what do you mean?” Tamera asked, she became more confused. “Uh, I... It’s because I...” Chris said haltingly, “Ugh!”.
“...” Tamera said. “Oh, well, just forget it, let’s we go to our next class” Chris said. He then headed to the next class, followed by Tamera, who still confused about Chris’ behavior.
The second class was Mr. Edward’s class.
Before entering the class room, Chris approached by Mr. Edward himself. “Mr. Redfield, don’t forget there’ll be an audition to join the music club” he said. “Oh, thanks for remind me sir” Chris said. “Do your best, I really hope young music talents like you two can join our club” he said.
“Thanks sire, I will... wait a minute, did you just said you two?” Chris asked, confused “Who’s the other one?”.
"Good morning sir" Someone greeted, it was Lance again.
“Him” Mr. Edward said pointing at Lance.
“...” Chris didn’t said anything, he was speechless.

No!” Chris said “Tamera and I just...:”, “You can not fool me Chris, I can see from your eyes that you like her” Lance said “But for some reasons, you have no courage to tell her your feelings, what a loser”.
“Mind your own business, Lewis” Chris said. “Okay then, I will surely mind my own business...” Lance said “...to get Tamera as my girlfriend”. “What the heck did you just say?” Chris said. “I said, I WILL SURELY MIND MY OWN BUSINESS TO GET TAMERA AS MY GIRLFRIEND” Lance said again.
“You!” Chris grabbed Lance’s. “What’s wrong dude? You afraid that Tamera would choose me over you?” Lance asked “Well, it won’t be surprised if she choose me, I’m a pop Icon after all, and you are just an amateur SimTuber musician”.
“And yeah, I know you and I’ve watched all of your videos on the SimTube... did you call your songs Rock? Meh, you really have bad-taste on music dude” Lance said. “Who do you think you are talking like that?” Chris asked in anger. “Me? I’m a pop idol, every girls in this country love me, and Tamera will also love me too, ha ha ha!” Lance said “Yeah, I’m attracted to her if you want to know and no girls in this world would escape from my charm”.
“Oh, she will never attracted to you” Chris said. “Oh she will” Lance said “How about this, you and I, will compete to get her as girlfriend, if you really have courage”. “What are you talking about?” Chris asked. “Are you idiot or something? I said, how about we compete each other to get her attention? You and I both attracted to her” Lance said “But yeah, I think I have much bigger chance than you since I’m a pop teen idol. Oh every girls wanted to date an idol like me”.
“...” Chris didn’t said anything.
“So, how is it? Mr. SimTuber?” Lance asked. “Okay then, fine! I accept your chalenge!” Chris said. Lance smirked after hearing Chris’ answer.
Later, Mr. Edward appeared from inside. “Mr. Redfield and Mr. Lewis, it’s time for the audition, come in!” he said.
“Well, it looks like our rivaly is not only for Tamera...” Lance claimed “Let’s we see whose music is better”. “With pleasure Mr. Teen Pop Idol” Chris said, taking his guitar “With pleasure...”.

Chris ended his song, everyone cheered. “Nice one Mr. Redfield, you really have talent” Mr. Edward said. “Thank you sir” Chris said. “Okay, you can back to your seat” Mr Edward said. “Okay, next, Mr. Lewis”.
“AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH! Lance, I LOVE YOU!” girls voice suddenly heard. “Huh, since when those girls enter this room?” Chris shocked, she saw a group of girls suddenly appeared from nowehere. Lance then stood up, he looked at the girls and winking at them.

“On your dream you flat-chest! He’s wingking to me!” the third girl said.
“Hey, all of you get out!” a teacher “You disturb this audition!”. “B-but sir!” one of the girl, named Vicky Toadstool protested, followed by the other girls. “Girls... Calm down” Lance said using the microphone, calming down the girls only with few words. “Ohhh, he’s so charming” Vicky said.
“Oh, okay, very well Mr. Lewis, you can start” Mr. Edward said “And for you girls, you can watch if you want but DO NOT be so noisy, okay?”. “Okay sir” the girls said in unison.

“AAAAAAAHHH! So romantic!” the girls yelled again.
“Seriously, can’t those girls just shut their mouth!?” Chris said. “Calm down dude, they are girls, it’s normal for them acting like that” another participant said, calming Chris down “especially when there is a pop idol in your school”.
Lance then started to sing.
- Anytime I need to see your face,
- I just close my eyes
- And I am taken to a place where
- your crystal mind and
- Magenta feelings take up shelter
- in the base of my spine
- Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola
- I don't need to try and explain;
- I just hold on tight
- And if it happens again, I might move
- so slightly
- To the arms and the lips and the face
- of the human cannonball
- That I need to, I want to
- Come stand a little bit closer
- Breath in and get a bit higher
- You'll never know what hit you
- When I get to you
- Ooh, I want you
- I don't know if I need you
- But, ooh, I'd die to find out
- Ooh, I want you
- I don't know if I need you
- But, ooh, I'd die to find out
- I'm the kind of person who endorses
- a deep commitment
- Getting comfy getting perfect
- is what I live for
- But a look, then a smell of perfume
- It's like I'm down on the floor
- And I don't know what I'm in for
- Conversation has a time and place
- In the interaction of a lover and a
- mate,
- But the time of talking,
- using symbols, using words
- Can be likened to a deep sea diver
- who is swimming with a raincoat
- Come stand a little bit closer
- Breathe in and get a bit higher
- You'll never know what hit you
- When I get to you
- Anytime I need to see your face,
- I just close my eyes
- And I am taken to a place where
- your crystal mind and
- Magenta feelings take up shelter
- in the base of my spine
- Sweet like a chic-a-cherry cola
- I don't need to try and explain;
- just hold on tight
- And if it happens again, I might move
- so slightly
- To the arms and the lips and the face
- of the human cannonball
- That I need to, I want to
- So we can find out?"
Lance finished his song, the girls cheered, yelling for his name. “AAAAHHHHH LANCE! I LOVE YOU, LANCE! I LOVE YOU!” they said. Lance then blew a kiss to them, made them even crazier.

"Maybe after I beat that Chris guy in our bet" Lance said, a smirk appeared on his face. "Who?" Irene asked. "Oh, huh? nothing, forget it mom".
"Oh, mind if we go to the grocery store first? I need to buy something" Irene asked. "Oh, okay, I will waiting in the car".

"It's not fair! I was the one who supposed to be asked by Walter Benjamin West to join the competition, not that SimTuber loser!" Lance thought.
"Fine, I also will form a band, participating in that competition, and beat that loser!".
