I slowly stood up. I just stood there trying to keep myself from falling farther apart. Time ticked as I leaned against the tree, my phone going crazy with messages from (F/n). I sighed as I stared at the sky, the flyer clutched in my hand. I made such a fool of myself. He didn't even know my name. How sad is that. He was just being nice. He probably was like that with everyone. I wasn't special in his eyes. I managed to walk home, falling into my steps. I took a longer way home than usual, I wanted to think. Part of me doesn't know why I'm upset. Sure he shot me down... but I never have any kind of relationship with him. Friend or other wise. We're strangers. Even though it made rational sense in my head, that didn't stop the tears from streaming down my face.

I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, it was a text from (F/n). I opened it:

(F/n): Hey how did it go!!!?!????

I put it back in my pocket. I didn't feel like talking. I walked in and as usual my mom asked me a million questions about where I was and what I was doing. I lied. I hated lying to her but I was too broken to tell her the truth. I just said I stayed for extra help. She bought it. I went into my room and threw myself on the bed. "Man I'm exhausted," I said after letting out a sigh of relief. "Maybe if this is all a dream. I could wake up in class with the kids laughing at me. That seems like a great out come compared to him rejecting me," I said sitting up. I brushed the hair out of my face and took the flyer out of my pocket. I unfolded it and stared at the printed words. "A popstar... I can't be serious. I don't even sing, let alone dance. Well at least not in front of people," I said sadly as I tossed it aside, before getting my headphones and playing the song that usually made me feel better. Before I knew it I was singing at the top of my lungs, dancing around like an idiot. Soon to fall onto my bed out of exhaustion. My eyes fell on the flyer again.

"Maybe I can do this... anything is better than avoiding him tomorrow at school. I need to do something. I can't be so scared all the time," I said to myself. I slowly sat up and saw my backpack. "It's tomorrow, meaning I have to skip school if I want to have a shot at auditioning. I need a plan," I said walking into my closet and just went through all the situations in my head as I chose what I would wear that day. Tossing shirt after shirt on the ground. Why can I never find an outfit when I need one!

I finally picked one, it was (outfit). Now for (make-up/hair/whatever happens when you get ready). I'm not saying I look drop dead gorgeous, but I look alright. Better than I usually do at school, when most of the time I put little to zero effort on my looks. I smiled to myself.... "maybe if I dressed like this he would like me. Maybe this if what he likes in a girl," I said examining my look sadly. No! I slapped my cheeks together! I'm not thinking about it now. There's nothing I can do about it. All I can do is accept that he doesn't like me. I undressed into more casual clothes and I went down for dinner. It was quiet and school didn't really come up. Good, I didn't wanna talk about it.

The next morning

I got dressed putting my real outfit in my backpack. "Have a good day," my mom wave as I left and I waved back. I walked downtown and found a place change. Then I walked to the building where the auditions were being held. There was already a line of at least 40 girls. I swallowed and took my spot in line right inside the building. I could here the music from the stage, it was amazing. I never knew there were so many talented singers around here. Doubt began to creep into my mind, but I shook it off. No not now. It was about 3 hours when it was finally my turn.

I walked on to the stage. The sound of my footsteps echoed through out the room. " Ok sweetheart what will you be preforming," said the only man siting in the audience. He had short brown hair and copper eyes. He dressed in a 3 piece suit, and from his clipboard it said Dave. I guess that's his name. "Um I'll be singing (f/song)," I said quickly. "Oh another singer. Great," he said rolling his eyes. My stomach dropped. That reaction made me more nervous than ever. I gripped the mic harder and tried to calm myself down.

Music soon filled the room. I took a deep breath and began to sing. I was so nervous I couldn't stay on pitch and every time he frowned I would miss the note. I was also a little more quiet then what he probably wanted. I wasn't even to the middle of the song when he rose his arm up. "I think I've heard enough. Listen kid, go home, go to school, we're done here," he said as he stood up and walked out. I was the last one... I blew it. I put the mic back on the stand.

I stood there in disbelief, till it sunk in. I felt a tear down my cheek, "I'm nothing but a failure this week," I said quietly. I wiped my eyes and I took a deep breath. "It's over... I missed my shot," I whispered as I stood on the stage and looked out at the empty seats. "I always have bad luck," I said walking up closer to the mic on the stand "Well since I'm here," I said as I took a deep breath and began to sing into the mic. It was a sad song. A song that helped me feel a little better. I just closed my eyes and sang.

(Dave's Pov)

"Hold on I forgot my coat," I said tiredly to my crew before walking back to the stage. I opened the door and I stopped. I saw her on the stage walking towards the mic, "oh great," I said rolling my eyes. Then something hit me... this girl.

When she opened her mouth. Her voice was as clear as crystal, her vowels were flawless, and her pitch was that of an angel. It was as if the world had stopped for a moment, nothing but her voice could be heard, yet when she closed her mouth all the noises of the world came rushing back in. She sang non-stop for about 5 min.

(Y/n Pov)

I stoped when I heard clapping. I looked to see them walk back into the room clapping. I covered my mouth, I couldn't believe it. "You are going to become the next big thing," Dave yelled and I started to cry. He said complements before he gave me his card. I took it staring at it in disbelief. After he left I fell to my knees and screamed! "I DID IT!!!! I FUCKING DID IT!!!" I've never been so happy! Look out world here comes (Y/n) and she's not slowing down!
