Sing 2 Clay Calloway Novels & Stories

"Sadie, I heard that Pryor kid you used to work for went completely under?" Sadie's smile froze for a second before she recovered, plastering on an even sweeter one. "Oh, Mr. Kingsley, don't bring up that loser. I'm clean now, waiting for a real gentleman like you to take me under your wing."

“Well, practicing is different from singing. I make a lot of noise so, I make sure to be done before you arrive.” Vin nodded, “Most of the rooms here are soundproof. Use any room you like.” “Wait, really?” Again, he nodded. An appreciative smile graced Callie’s face as she bent forward to kiss Vin on the cheek to show how thankful she was. ‘Think of me, think of me fondly, When we’ve said goodbye. Remember me, once in a while, Please promise me you’ll try.’ Think of Me was a song that she would sing early on in the show, and it was one she looked forward to the most.

The guy told everyone that the numbers represented the songs we would sing and also the order in which we would play, and as soon as he said this, another projector behind the rows of seats lit up with a white screen that displayed the songs we would be singing. Ours was 'From this moment on' by Shania Twain, and my heart stopped for a second as I turned to Cole and clasped his hand. "Do you know the song?" I asked and he nodded with the same question on his lips and a faraway expression in his eyes. I grinned and turned back to the crowd eagerly, ready to show off my singing abilities.

The photographer gave us a cue, smiling behind the camera. "Ready? Three, two, one!" "Cheese!" The camera clicked, and the image froze in time—just Valerie and I, smiling at each other, full of happiness. Life had struck me hard, but I chose to sing through the pain.

Bianca was already leaning on Kyland’s shoulder and so as Cam to Pyke. The twins started strumming a country song. The girls were already leaning against the table with awe on their faces as they listened to Riley singing in a deep-bass baritone voice. Holy shit! He had a good voice. He could be the next modern Johnny Cash. Blaine relaxed beside me after the two women left early, and Ben was already in bed. “Do you sing, sweetheart?” Her head tilted to my side and rolled her eyes. “Meh, can’t even sing nursery rhymes.”

‘The moment I wake up, before I put on my makeup, I say a little prayer for you. Elias listened, captivated by her candid display of joy. As the song reached its end, Callie turned towards him, her eyes twinkling with a mischievous glint. ‘Can you sing, Elias?’ ‘You’ve heard me sing before.’ Callie wagged a finger. ‘I meant love songs, not army chants.’ A faint tinge of embarrassment coloured Elias’s cheeks. ‘I don’t sing well.’ Callie leaned closer. ‘Oh, come on! Just sing for me. Pretty please! Just indulge me.’

The band started playing a deep tune as the piano sound rang around them. “Hit the road jack and don’t you come back no more no more no more no more. Hit the road jack and don’t you come back no more,” Beverly sang. “Come on, Selena,” Christopher said. “I’m actually in the mood for a swing on the dance floor.” Christopher and Selena headed up front. Everyone started clapping to the beat – again. Is that my future father-in-law dancing with Gwyneth Grayson-Hanson? “Oh woman, oh woman, don’t treat me so mean,” the man sang.

Clark asked. “PNE?” Clay asked. “Yes. All right,” said Clay. Clay played the piano, and everything was quiet. “It took one look And forever layout in front of me.” When Gaby heard his favorite, she looked up onstage. She saw Clark singing, and everyone was watching him. Clark’s voice was lovely. She was smiling. “I take one step away Then I find myself coming back to you.” There was a round of applause after the song. “Wow, impressive, you have good looks and a lovely voice!” said Sir Fabio. “Now, your turn, Dylan.”

I answer honestly. “That might be the most touching thing anyone has ever said to me,” she whispers, and I can hear the emotion in her voice. “We’ve got the rest of our lives together, Sorrell, trust me, I’ll top that one in no time,” I wink, making her laugh. I turn on the radio and ‘Ain’t No Mountain High Enough’ by Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell comes on the radio and I start singing along, much to Sorrell’s amusement. I never claimed I was a good singer.

Let's see if she gets cocky again. "Sing something for me. Let's see what you've got," Elio said, keeping his cool. The boss had spoken, and although he was not warm, Natalee gathered her courage and belted out "Gone Too Soon". Her voice was strong, clear, and just as good as the original.
