Chapter 188
"Jake!" Britney grumbled, giving a glare, though a playful smile lingered on her face.
"Hey, I said Britney, comma, Bitch. I didn’t call you bitch," I corrected, feeling wronged
Cara and Pippa still looked frozen, staring between and Britney as if their brains were buffering.
"You... you an the Britney?" Cara finally muttered, her voice barely above a whisper.
"Yup," Britney confird with a wink, adjusting her hair casually and taking off the hoodie
"Hey girls, calm down, there’s still my secret," I said, grinning. "That is way cooler!"
"Braggart!" Britney teased.
"Jake is Marshllo," Paige revealed. Britney nodded
"Paige!" I snapped at her. "You killjoy, that was my line!"
She stuck her tongue out and ran away as I went after her.
"What do you an by Jake is Marshllo?" Pippa blinked, not understanding.
Cara was just silent with widened eyes.
At that mont, Carly, Sam, and Freddie appeared at the door.
Sam took one look at Cara and Pippa, both still frozen in shock, and grinned.
"Huh, looks like you girls found out the truth," Sam remarked, casually waving her hand in front of Pippa’s face to see if she’d blink.
Without missing a beat, Sam grabbed a pen from the nearby table and approached Pippa with a mischievous grin.
"Perfect ti for so mustache art!" she snickered, aiming the pen toward Pippa’s face.
I quickly stopped her, snatching the pen from her hand. "Hey, Sam!" I scolded, giving her a firm look.
"No mustache! Do so stars and moons," I added, smirking as I turned to draw little stars and crescent moons on Pippa’s cheek myself.
Before I could start drawing, Pippa suddenly slapped my hand, sending the pen flying across the room. Her eyes were twitching in disbelief.
"Really, Jake?" she asked, staring at
"I’m confused, are you talking about drawing on your cheek or being Marshllo?" I asked, tilting my head.
She huffed. I took her hand gently, while Freddie was already doing the sa with Cara.
It took a while for the girls to calm down and process everything. anwhile, Carly, Sam, Paige and Britney were chatting about iCarly.
Britney ntioned how much she enjoyed watching the show because she found it hilarious, and casually suggested she could make an appearance on it soday. The idea instantly sparked even more excitent from Carly and Sam, their faces lighting up at the possibility.
Pippa, finally snapping out of her daze, let out a deep breath and rubbed her temples.
"This is too much for one afternoon," she muttered, her voice still shaky but steadying.
Cara suddenly let out a girly scream, startling everyone. She grabbed Freddie’s hands tightly, her eyes wide with excitent
"You said we can see Britney and Marshllo singing today?" she squealed, bouncing slightly in place as she clutched Freddie’s hands tighter.
"Though she said she was not a bubble girl," I murmured, earning an imdiate elbow from Pippa.
That instantly made Britney rember sothing. She walked over to
"Where is my music?" she asked, then made a finger-gun gesture and playfully pressed it against my arm. "Pass my music," she joked, acting like a bandit.
"Yeah, I wrote it," I replied with a smile
Britney and I walked to a quieter corner of the room, where I handed her a folded piece of paper with the lyrics. She unfolded it eagerly, her eyes scanning the words.
We humd the lody together a few tis, testing the rhythm and flow. I adjusted a few parts, thinking aloud and tweaking the lines here and there, while Britney added her own suggestions
After a bit more practice, ironing out the last details, we exchanged a nod.
Turning back to the group, I announced, "We’re ready." Britney flashed a bright, confident smile beside .
Without wasting a mont, I moved to my DJ table, setting up the beat, while Britney and I both adjusted our headset microphones.
Say It Right (Nelly Furtado)
I started,
♪Freak-freak, girl
Hey
You don’t an nothing at all to , hey

Then Britney took the lead,
♪In the day, in the night
Say it right, say it all
Either got it or you don’t
You either stand or you fall♪
♪When your will is broken
When it slips from your hand
When there’s no ti for joking
There’s a hole in the plan♪
I adjusted Britney’s voice for the chorus, adding a background vocal effect, as if it were an echo, while I handled the smaller second part
♪Oh, you don’t an nothing at all to (hey, oh-oh, hey)
No, you don’t an nothing at all to (hey, oh-oh, hey)

Britney was already dancing while singing, naturally creating a choreography
♪Oh, you don’t an nothing at all to (hey, oh-oh, hey)

Before anyone could start clapping, Britney suddenly jumped on , laughing.
"I loved it! Let’s do it one more ti, record it, and then we can release it," she said excitedly
"Ayo, girl, calm down!" I told her.
"Co on, I can already see it becoming the top hit on Billboard," she said.
"Hey, the top one is ’Closer,’ that’s already mine—and with my voice," I pointed out.
"Don’t be stingy," she whined, poking my cheek. "You’ve had your ti at the top long enough, let have so."
"What are you saying, girl? Closer has been at number one for almost a month, before that it was Dark Horse."
Cheap Thrills (Sia) is right behind, #2...
Cara and Pippa were looking astonished. Cara muttered, "Why do they sound like they’re arguing over who gets the last cookie instead of literally talking about the number one song on the Billboard?"
