*America's POV*
I'm so excited to be working with all these fabulous people. We've been looking for about a week and a half, seen thousands of tapes, had some live interviews, but no one seemed to fit the part of Thomas . We had everyone else already casted. We needed to have Thomas cast within the next week. Our top choice right now was Josh Hutcherson, the guy who played Peeta Mellark in Hunger Games. I just don't think he looks like a Thomas or a runner to me.

I walked into the room, with hot chocolate in my hand. Personally, I'm not a fan of coffee, so I drink liquid chocolate instead of liquid crushed-up beans.

"Morning Mer!" Says Alex, my co-worker, using my nickname he gave me.
I rolled my eyes and replied, "After two weeks, you still don't know my name?"
"I do, it's just Mer is cuter," he says back.
Whatever, I decide I don't care anymore.

"How many auditions do we have today?" I asked as I looked at the first profile.
"Uh today we have 3 scheduled and then a surprise for you!" Denise said. I groaned, knowing her surprises were always ...memorable.

"Thanks for auditioning, we'll let you know." I said to our last scheduled auditionee. I sighed and turned to look at the others.

"Well? What'd you guys think?" I ask.
I get scattered nos, groans and head shakes.
"Me too," I say.

"Let's head to lunch and while we're there, I can tell you the surprise," Denise suggests.

We all walk out the door, exhausted and frustrated.
