Blake pulled himself away from Michael. The kiss was so unexpected he didn't know how to react. He didn't know what to say. But most importantly he didn't know how he felt about it.

Michael turned around and walked away. Blake wanted to stop him but he was paralyzed. He couldn't move, he couldn't speak. He just saw Michael looking back at him as he walked out the door.

Blake thought to himself only one other person in the world has ever made him feel this way before. It happened a few weeks back during adaptability week. It happened in this very competition, it happened with Nellie.

Blake and Nellie had struggled that week and were both in the bottom 6. They had to perform "I've Been Waiting For A Boy/Girl Like You" for Ryan as a duet. Blake and Nellie were just friends at this point, nothing more. They must have rehearsed the song about a hundred times. But the only feelings they had were nervous feelings.

It was their first time at risk of leaving the competition. But they had no intention of going home. They were up first; they introduced themselves and got into position. They were both so nervous. But they knew they had to sing. The music started and Blake started his verse. His knees were shaking but he kept on singing.

Once Nellie started to sing her verse it was as if the whole world stopped and it was just the two of them singing. Blake harmonized with Nellie and for the remainder of their performance it was just them, alone in that auditorium, alone on that stage.

No Robert judging them on their performance, no Ryan pretending not to be impressed, no Nikki listening for perfect pitch and no Zachary with a fan girl’s expression on his face.

It was just Blake and Nellie until the song came to an end and Blake did something that they had not rehearsed. He kissed Nellie's forehead. That kiss made everything appear again. Ryberikkary (Ryan, Robert, Nikki and Zachary) clapped.

That was the moment he felt something for Nellie. A strong overpowering feeling a feeling he thought he would never feel for another person ever again. But he did, he feels the exact same way about Michael!

Michael was in the kitchen just pacing back and forth. Thinking to himself how he just ruined his friendship with Blake. Feeling alone for the first time since the competition began. He just wanted to go home and forget everything that happened. But he knew deep down that that was not the answer. Running away won't change how he feels.

So in honor of tenacity week he decided to go back to the dorm and sort everything out with Blake. He walks in all tenaciously and to his surprise Blake was still standing in the same spot where he left him.

"Blake, look I'm...." Michael starts but is interrupted by Blake.

Blake grabs Michael by the neck of his shirt with both hands, just like he did in the Music video for "Everybody Hurts". Pushes him up against the wall and kisses him hard on the lips!

Ali may have one the homework assignment for tenacity week. But Blake and Michael get extra credit for tenaciously going for what they want.
