Noticing Aaron's reluctance to sing, Rhys tried to boost his confidence by pushing the suggestion that he did want to sing into Aaron's head.
Maybe singing won't be so bad just this one time after Lyra
He hoped his attempt to push this thought into Aaron's head wouldn't be too obvious. It was getting late and he was slightly tired, anway, so it might not work.

Artemis walked into Off Key as she looked for Mykel who texted her. She was by the pier so it didnt take her long to get there. It was loud full of people talking and loud music as she noticed her friends singing. She saw Mykel and waved walking over to him. "Hey" She said bringing her hand to the back of her neck. "Sorry to intrude..." She said with a small smile seeing a few she hadnt met yet. "Mykel invited me...thats kool right?"S he asked.

She smiled feeling a bit awkward getting hugged. She hugged him back however looking at the others. "Um..I could be better hoping this will lighten my mood" She said.

"Yeah, that's cool," Aaron said, pointing to an empty seat for Artemist to sit with. Rhys' powers worked on Aaron, and he didn't know. It helped that Aaron was debating about singing, Rhys' mind idea power just confirmed Aaron to sing. "I'll sing after Lyra," Aaron decided with a nod. "I'll let her go again, help gain confidence and get my jitters out of the way," Aaron said, then he motioned to the stage, "after you Lyra," Aaron said.

She saw Artemis had come inside and nodded, acknowledging her. She didn't want to spoil the mood so she would stop herself from fighting with Artemis again. She smiled when Aaron deicded he'd sing,"Awesome!", she smiled.

Mykel cuddled up to Rhys, happy. "I like you." He mumbled, punchdrunk on happiness, nerves (yes, still), and his own lightning.

Artemis took a seat inhaling. She heard Lyra was going to sing. A small smile came over to arron as she sat next to a boy she hadnt met that she saw Mykel all goggly eyes over. She smirked looking over to the stage wondering if they were gong to ask her to sing.

Rhys noticed that another student had joined them, a friend of Mykel's apparently.
"Hi, I'm Rhys" he said with a smile.

Artemis leaned over Mykel and gave him her hand. "Artemis" She said Nodding lightly with a smile. "You can call me Art..or Missy"S he said shaking her head at the funny nicknames.

"Oh goody! I'll be right back guys!" Lyra could not wipe the smile off of her face. She was so exited she finally got to sing the song that was stuck in her head for the longest time. She told the DJ what song she wanted and she walked on stage. "This might be a mood killer... but it's late," she looked at the time, "er, early," she corrected herself, "I think it's time to calm things down," Lyra said, speaking into the microphone. She nodded to the DJ to start the music.
"Night Drive" by Jimmy Eat World started to play, and Lyra quietly "ooohed" at the beginning of the song. "Lay back baby and we'll do this right," Lyra began to sing, her voice slightly breathy, "there's blankets in the back we can use," she sang, her voice subdued like silk dragging across a tile floor. The song progressed, now at the chorus.
"Kiss me with your cherry lipstick, never wash you off my face," Lyra held the microphone close to her mouth, her eyes closed. Her voice getting lost as if she was talking to a dead lover, "hit me with your cheap shot, leave you with the love we made."
It was obvious Lyra had a love for the song, it was obvious in her tone, in her expression, the way the words flowed out of her mouth. After the song was over, Lyra opened her eyes and took a breath, "Thank you," she said, taking a moment to absorb the energy and the claps.
