"Oh, god."  Eli uttered as the two girls ran to the stage
"Is it bad?" Asked Miguel. 
"I've heard her sing it a thousand times. It's like a dying cat rehung ti hit Mariah Carey's whistle note."
Sam squealed when Dancing Queen began to play.  "Oh my god, I love this song!"
"You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life!" 
"Ooh, see that girl, watch that scene. Digging the dancing queen!" Demetri and Sam sang together. 
Oliver raised his eyebrows. Demetri shrugged. "What?  I'm an Abba fan." 
"Friday night and the lights are low. . ." Odessa sang. Her voice was scratchy but entertaining.
"Looking out for a place to go. . ." Hailey went next and Grayson and Eli swayed side to side while singing. 
"Where they play the right music. Getting in the swing. You come to look for a king." 
Oliver held onto Demetri and they bursted out, "Anybody could be that guy!"
"Night is young and the music's high!" Miguel sang into his fist and he spun Sam around with the other hand. 
"With a bit of rock music, everything is fine. You're in the mood for a dance. And when you get the chance. . ." 
"You are the dancing queen! Young and sweet! Only seventeen!" The group of friends shouted together.  Odessa and Hailey danced dramatically on the stage as they sang to the song.
"Feel the beat from the tambourine,oh yeah!"
"You can dance!" Hailey shouted, pointing at the crowd.
"You can jive!" Odessa followed.
"Having the time of your life!" They sang in unison.  "Ooh, see that girl. Watch that scene. Digging the dancing queen!"  The two girls finished and they grabbed each other's hands, holding them high in the air. 
Everyone in the room cheered for them and the girls exited the stage, feeling completely exhausted. Odessa nearly collapsed into Eli. "Okay, I think it's time to go find a table." He suggested. 
"Good idea." She breathed while waving her hand in front of her face to cool down.
The group moved through the crowd and found a large table. Eli pulling out a chair for her to sit down.  "Punch?" He insisted. 
"Absolutely."
He kissed the top of her head and went with Grayson to the punch bowl to get the girls drinks. Demetri and Oliver plopped down in the chairs across from the. "I just heard that the after party got canceled." He stated. 
Hailey's eyes widened. "What?" She almost yelled. 
"Yeah. Apparently Logan Wang's little brother got in some middle school fight." Said Demetri. 
She threw her hands up. "Well, great, my plan is ruined." 
"Not entirely. Maybe someone will throw one at the last minute?" Odessa inquired.
"Or maybe we can go to Hammy's and raide his dad's liquor cabinet." Oliver said with a shrug. 
"You know he keeps it locked up tight, right?"  
He reached into his pants pocket and pulled out a key chain with one key on it. Hailey narrowed her eyes.  "Why do you have that?"
"Grayson always gives me copies of his keys."
