Chapter Eleven: The Sign and the End

Once Ren got home, she went straight to her room picked up the telephone. She then came up with a plan and hung up the phone to tell Louis.

"Louis, I need you to gather Tawny and Beans-" she started, but got scared when Beans popped out of nowhere from Louis' room.

"You rang?" he said eating a strip of bacon.

"Beans, I need you to get your base guitar, and Louis I need you to get Tawny and her piano. Then everyone meet up in the basement," she finished as she went started to go to her room.

"What about Twitty?" asked Beans not knowing what had happened at the mall.

"It's a surprise for him okay Beans, so go get your guitar and come back here," she said and went into her room.

Once there, she again picked up the phone and tried to call Twitty.

"Hello," she heard him say at the other end of the line.

"Twitty, baby please don't-" and then she heard a dead tone. She called again, but nobody picked up. She tried and tried, but she was unsuccessful.

She left the phone for a while and went to her computer to type up the new print out the new song she had made.

(A/N: The song she printed out is "The Sign" by Ace of Base, but for the story's purposes, I wrote that she had created it. Some of the lines are altered from the original version. It's just to give you a heads up.)

Five minutes later, she went to the basement and saw Tawny in front of her piano, Louis at the drums, and Beans eating over his base guitar.

"Ren, Louis told me, and I just want to say that I don't care if we have to barge into his house, but we will make see the truth," said Tawny.

"Thank you," replied Ren and gave her a copy of the music sheet. She then gave Louis and Beans a copy. She didn't need one because she had already memorized when she had first written it down.

All of the instruments were hooked up and then they started practicing. Over and over, they practiced until they got the tune right.

The next day, they had taken all of their instruments to Twitty's place and assembled in front of his house.

They had managed to contact Twitty's mom and she allowed them to plugs the cords in the outlets. She told Ren that Twitty was so happy when he started going out with her and that this might convince him to change his mind.

Ren was nervous as was the rest of the band. She then took her microphone and began to talk through it, "Alan Twitty," her voice echoed down the street, "I know you're inside your room, so please listen to what I have to say," she finished and she looked around and saw most of the neighbors outside curious at what these kids were doing.

Twitty was lying on the bead when he heard Ren's voice and went to the window to see what was she trying to do.

Then she heard Louis, "One, two, one, two, three," and they started to play the song.

... I wanna be with you!

I'm so lonely

you would hardly recognize me

I'm so sad

how can a person like me care for you

why do I bother

when you are out of my league

will you care for me..

As she started to sing, Twitty saw her on the lawn singing up to his room. He smiled knowing that other people must be looking outside their windows as well. He made up his mind, and decided to go downstairs and go out the front door.

He was just in time to hear the chorus..

..I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign

life is so scary without you and me

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign

no one's gonna drag you up

to begin a new life where you belong

do you belong with me...

Ren turned her gaze to the opening door and saw Twitty come out. She moved a little bit closer and he just stood there and looked at her. He had his hands inside his pockets and had a weak smile on his face.

.. Under the pale moon

for so many years I've wondered

who you are

how can a person like me bring you joy

under the pale moon

where I see a lot of stars

will you care for me...

He smiled at the fact that those couple of lines reminded him of their first kiss under the stars in the backyard of her house.

... I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign

life is so scary without you and me

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign

no one's gonna drag you up

to begin a new life where you belong

do you belong with me

Oh, oh, oh...

She then kneeled down on the floor for the next couple of verses.

...I saw the sign and it opened up my mind

and I am happy now

being here with you

I love you so oh, oh, oh

I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign

no one's gonna drag you up

to begin a new life where you belong...

She stood back up and heard as the others sang back up.

... I saw the sign, I saw the sign,

I saw the sign, I saw the sign...

Then Ren went up to him and finished the last words of the song.

... I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes

I saw the sign...

Everyone in the neighborhood applauded and some yelled out "Kiss her! Kiss her!" Ren stepped back a bit, hoping that he would do something or say something to her.

He walked down the front stairs, hands still in his pocket, and was only a couple of inches in front of her. It still amazed her how taller he was even though he was one year younger.

He took out his hands from his pockets, took Ren's face, and slowly leaned it to give her a kiss. Everyone in the neighborhood boomed with excitement as Ren and Twitty shared another passionate kiss together. She dropped her microphone and placed her arms around his neck, as he slipped his around her waist.

They broke the kiss and laid their foreheads against each others.

"I'm sorry," she said rubbing the tip of his nose against his.

"I'm sorry too," he said and placed a hand on her cheek to wipe away the tear that was trickling down her cheek.

Twitty's mother had stepped outside and said, "Finally!" and both Ren and Twitty laughed at her expression.

Louis, Tawny, and Beans came up to the lovebirds, "Thanks you guys," said Twitty as he held Ren in his arms and Ren rested her head on his chest.

"Yeah, thanks, I couldn't have done it without you," she added truthfully.

"It was nothing," all three had exclaimed.

"So Tawny, want to spend the rest of the day with Papa?" he asked looking at her with a dreamy expression on his face.

She rolled her eyes and said, "Okay Louis, only on one condition."

"What's that?" he asked sounding interested.

"If I get another dreamy kiss like last time," she said fully turned to him.

"If you say so," he said coming closer as he grabbed her and gave her the kiss she wanted.

Twitty and Ren were already kissing and the only thing Beans had to say was, "Get a room!"

THE END!

No more to be continues, RandR! Oh man, that's the end! Hey I might add an epilogue or something. Stay tuned!
