HAZEL P.O.V.

It was the day of the audition.

I was so nervous I was shaking.

"What if I forget the lyrics?" I started rambling on and on, "what if I sing off-tune? What if I sing through my nose?"

"Relax, I've heard you sing," said Jace, "and your voice is beautiful."

"Really?" I asked, blushing a bit.

"Trust me, Hazel. You are going to do amazing."

"Thanks, Jace."

"No problem," he said, "hey, by the way, your audition isn't for an hour and a half. Why did you want to come early?"

"I don't know," I lied.

Truthfully, I just wanted to see Jace again. I don't know why, I just did. And no, I do NOT have a crush on him, I just love being around my best friend. A girl has the right to be happy around her closest friend.

"Um, okay," he said, "well, do you want to rehearse?"

"Sure," I said smiling, "first, let me warm up."

I did some warm-ups for about thirty minutes while Jace listened to me.

"Hey," he said, "could you sing a song?"

"Sure," I said to him, "anytime. What song?"

"Hm.... I like Fireflies by Owl City," he said, "do you know that one?"

"Do I? I love that song!"

"Cool! I'd like to hear you sing it."

"Of course!" I exclaimed.

I started singing "Fireflies". I made sure to try and sound my absolute best.

You would not believe your eyes

If ten million fireflies

Lit up the world as I fell asleep

'Cause they'd fill the open air

And leave tear drops everywhere

You'd think me rude

But I would just stand and stare

I'd like to make myself believe

That planet Earth turns slowly

It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep

'Cause everything is never as it seems

Jace looked at me smiling really big.

"Oh my gosh!" he shouted.

"What?" I asked, "was it bad? You're laughing, aren't you."

"No!" he shouted, "it was beautiful! You have the best singing voice in the entire world! It's amazing!"

I blushed, not meaning to. I tried not to, but Jace was so sweet.

"Thank you so much!" I said to him. Then, I held up my phone and pretended it was an award, "I would like to thank my best friend Jace for always supporting me on my music!"

"Woohooo!" he cheered.

We both laughed. Then I got a text.

"Who's it from?" asked Jace.

"Oh, it's just Noah," I said, smiling.

Noah: Hey, babe, just asking how the audition is going.
