What's That...A Hint?
Title: What’s That…A Hint? 1/1
Summary: Mark’s new album raises some eyebrows. He’s been writing about breakups and broken dreams, but this new album is different. Is this a hint? Will the fans soon find out?
Rating: PG
Disclaimer: I don’t own anyone…duh…wish I could control a few things though.
Comments: Just a funny thought when I heard this new song. Not Mark’s song…but we can pretend. The song is by Chris Rice.
~The song is in cursive. Blue writing is boy singing. Purple is girl singing. Black is both singing. Enjoy!!!

The boards are buzzing. Once this new song hit the airwaves, everyone was speculating. True fans knew it wasn’t Emily singing. They knew who it sounded like, but how could they be sure until the album came out with credits. The fans had point blank asked, with no answers given. As fans listened over and over, they tried hard to figure it out.

~LEMONADE~
So go ahead and ask her
For happy ever after.
‘Cause nobody knows what’s coming
So why not take the chance on loving?
Everyone knew that was Mark. It was his single after all, but it was his powerful and unmistakable voice.
Come on, pour the glass and tempt me
Either half-full or half-empty
‘Cause it all comes down to flavor
The glass is tipping in your favor.
Whose voice was that? They could tell it wasn’t Emily and even though she wouldn’t talk about it either…they had known. It sounded like Sabrina’s but it couldn’t be…could it?
Life gave me lemonade and I can’t imagine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky.
The harmony was special, like none that anyone had heard before. They blended into one, just like a waltz should…two people dancing as one.
I live life without pretending.
I’m a sucker for happy endings.
Thanks for the lemonade. Thanks for the lemonade!
Now take your time to answer me
For the beauty of romancing
Is to calm your trembling hand with mine
While begging love to fill your eyes.
It wasn’t just the voices…but the words. That’s what linked Sabrina to this endeavor. She had been quiet on twitter and myspace. She hadn’t answered any questions regarding what she was working on. Was this her secret or just someone who sounded familiar to the fans?
I can hardly breathe while waiting.
To find out
What your heart is saying.
And as we’re swirling in this flavor
The world is tilting in our favor.
Life gave me lemonade and I can’t imagine why
Born on a sunny day, beneath the tangerine sky.
I live life without pretending.
I’m a sucker for happy endings.
Thanks for the lemonade. Thanks for the lemonade!
Wow. The more the fans listened the more they speculated. If it wasn’t Sabrina…who was it? Obviously he wouldn’t sing this song with just anyone if he wasn’t seeing them. Otherwise he would have just done the song with Emily, she obviously had great vocals. Who was this and why was Mark skirting the questions about it.
I’ve got it made
Rest in the shade
And hold my love.
While God above.
Stirs with a spoon.
We share the moon.
Smile at the bees.
More sugar please.
He really loves us after all.
We’re gonna need another straw!
The song was speaking to the fans and turning them all in to hopeful romantics. Was this or wasn’t this…were they witnessing a coming out of a relationship? When would they find out and what if they never did? This was driving them mad.

I think we should tell them. The boards are lighting up with questions and they should know the truth. Without fans, where would either of us be?
You’re right. Thanks for helping me write that song…it’s not only fitting, but so special in my heart. You make me feel like no matter what comes my way…I still have lemonade days.
Oh…Markiss. I love you. I’m glad we got to do this and I’m glad everyone seems to love our song. Should we tell them now or wait until the album comes out. After all…it tells who wrote the song and who is singing it. That would be kinda sweet for them to find out that way.
We can do that…but we are moving the release date up. They were just waiting on me anyway…to be ready with final touches. Come to my apartment…Derek’s gone and I want my Bri time…let’s make some lemonade!
Two weeks later…the fans who bought the album were surprised.
