Chapter 14

*The next morning*
I woke up in my bed and I looked around. I got up and took a shower before changing in the first outfit for the competition. I got a list of requirements for each round. I went to the kitchen and shook with my leg once I sat down. "Nervous?" Steve asked and I nodded. "I'm sure you'll do amazing. Your voice is the best voice I ever heard." Clint said and I smiled nervously. "Thanks." I said as I took a bite of my food. After breakfast we all went to the competition together except for Bucky, he would meet us there. When we arrived I looked around full of joy. "This is amazing." I said as I walked to registration desk. "Aurora." I said to the lady and she gave me a pack of 5 stickers with my name and number, one for each round. I smiled as we walked further. I saw everybody do warm up exercises and I looked at the time. Still 2 hours till it starts. "Way too early to warm up." I said and instead we looked around everywhere. All of a sudden I stop walking and gasp. "Oh my god, is he the secret guest?" I asked as I spotted Shawn Mendes. "I guess so." Wanda said and I pushed her in front of me. "Oh my God I can't win this. How am I supposed to behave normal around him?" I asked and she turned around to me. "He is just a normal person. Keep that in mind." She said and smiled. I nodded before she pushed me towards him and I almost fell. He looked around and I looked up. "Ahem...right sorry, I got pushed. I was wondering if I could get a picture with you, just in case I won't make it through." I said and he smiled. "Of course Aurora." He said as he read my name of my sticker and I smiled nervously. We took a picture and he gave me my phone back. "Good luck out there." He said and I smiled. "Thank you, I'm gonna need it." I said before walking away. I looked at the picture and smiled widely.
The picture (not mine):

"Well someone is happy." Clint said and laughed. "Definitely. He is my biggest idol." I said before putting away my phone. "Okay now it is time for me to warm up." I said and looked for a corner. We walked over and I started to do voice exercises as I was stretching. I placed my leg up against the wall as someone walked up to us. "Oh she bendy." The man said as I was bending over backwards. I quickly made a flip when I saw who it was. "Mr. Hall." I said and he laughed. "Oh no please call me Todrick. I wish I was as bendy. Good luck out there girl." He said as he air kissed me before walking away. "Oh my God." I said as I leaned against the wall. "I'm glad when it's all over so I won't be so nervous anymore." I said and they all laughed as I got back up and a tone was heard through the speakers. "All participants please all come backstage." A man said and I took a deep breath. "You got this." Wanda said and the others nodded in agreement. I smiled and walked backstage. "Name?" A man asked as he looked at a clipboard. "Addison." A girl said as she pushed me out of the way. The man looked up and then turned to me. "Miss what was your name?" He asked me and smiled at me. "Aurora." I said as I tried to stay calm. "You can go through Aurora." He said and as I walked through I heard him yell next, completely ignoring Addison. "Welcome everybody." the host said as I looked through the curtains to see how big the crowd was and spotted Bucky on the first row, sitting next to the others. I smiled and walked back as the host explained the rounds and how it works. "Okay let's get started." He said and I took a deep breath. I had to wait for my turn and I got more nervous with the second. I was finally up and my dance partner stood on the other side. He smiled reassuring at me as the host called us up on the stage and we got in position.

We went of the stage and high-fived. "Thanks Marco, I owe you." I said and he smiled. "How about a drink? You know as a date?" He asked and I looked down. "Sorry I have my eye on someone else." I said and shrugged before walking away to change my outfit. "You were so bad." Addison said and I laughed. "Tell that to all the people giving a standing ovation... INCLUDING the judges." I said as I kept walking. I quickly changed into my next outfit and walked outside for some fresh air. "You were amazing up there." Bucky said as he stood beside me. "Thanks, I worked really hard." I said as I looked at him. "It paid off, everybody was standing and cheering." He said and I smiled. "Yeah I hope the Addison girl falls on her ugly ass face." I said and as I said it a lot of commotion came from inside. We ran inside and I saw Addison dramatically reach for her head. I walked to Wanda and asked what happened. "Oh she tripped but didn't even hit her head." She said as she tried not to laugh and I did the same. "I'm sorry Addison you can't go further." The host said and she angrily stomped off, completely forgetting that she 'hit' her head. "Okay so all contestants please get up here. To see who is through to the next round." The host said and I got up on the stage. "If you're out the judges will tap your shoulder. Todrick will hold one contestant by their shoulders. If your are the one, that means you won this round and you will win some time with Todrick." The host said and I got nervous. I looked down at my feet the whole time, trying not to shake too bad. A few minutes had passed when I felt to hands holding onto me. I gasped and looked over my shoulder. I saw Todrick smiling widely behind me. I quickly looked at the others and they gave me a thumbs up. I took a deep breath as Todrick pulled me with him. "Congratulations Aurora. Spend some time with Todrick before the next round." The host said as Todrick pulled me to his dressingroom. "Girl where did you find thise moves?" Todrick asked and I smiled nervously. "In my head." I said and then looked up. "Sorry that sounded better in my head." I said and he started laughing. "Don't apologize, I loved the answer." He said and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. "So is there anything you would want from me." He asked and I sat down on his couch. "To be honest, the only thing I would like is IF I win that you become my choreographer." I said and he smiled. "For a girl who dances like that? I would love to." He said and I chuckled. "Well that's settled then." I said and he smiled. "Anything you want to know?" He asked and I looked down. "How bad were the others?" I said and he laughed. "Confidence. I like that. You were just really really good." He said and I smiled proudly as there was a knock on the door. "I'm sorry, time's up, you are expected to come back." A security guy said and we walked with him. "Good luck again. You will slay." He said as we reached the stage and he walked further to the judge desk. "Welcome back everybody. It is now time for the second round. It's a fun round. It's time for the secret talent round." He said and a baby started to cry. I looked over to where it came from. "Good thing that my secret talent is getting every child no matter how emotional they are to sleep. Sometimes not just kids." I thought to myself. Again I was one of the last people to show them what I got. The whole time the baby has been crying and it made other babies and older children cry or get angry. Some adults looked irritated at the mother. "Next up Aurora. Number 1609." The host said and I walked up to the stage.
The outfit:

"So Aurora, tell us what your secret talent is." The host asked and I cleared my throat. "My secret talent is where everybody will be thankful for. No offense m'am." I said as I looked at the mother with the crying baby. "I can make every child fall asleep with just 1 song. Sometimes even grown ups so if your sensitive for lullabies, I would either cover your ears or walk outside for a second." I said and the host laughed. "Well now I'm curious." He said and I looked around till I found a violin. I walked over and grabbed the violin before singing.

After I was done all the kids were asleep including some adults. "Wow impressive." The host said as I saw Bucky asleep and I bowed before walking off the stage as I smiled.
