"alison i can't do this." i said as i paced back and forth.

"emily relax. it's just like any other time you performed."

"no it's not! barack obama, the first lady and his kids are here! i need to be amazing!" i said and wiped sweat off my forehead.

alison grabbed me and kissed me.

"what was that for?" i asked, my chest and heartbeat slowing down, my stress going away.

she smirked, "feel better?"

i sighed and nodded, "yes. thank you."

she smiled and put her hands on my cheeks, "emily. you are an amazing performer. i would never lie to you about that. don't think about the president being here. think about you are performing on stage, doing the thing you love most. i know you will be amazing. okay?" she said  to me and i smiled, "how do you do that?"

she laughed, "powers, now go." she said and started fixing my tie.

she tightened it and straightened it out and fixed my white suit jacket.

"go get 'em tiger." she said and kissed my cheek.

i smiled and conan said, "the first performance of the night is someone who actually i have a lot in common with. we are both young, super good looking, have girls swooning over us-"

everyone laughed, even me and conan finished off saying, "but i'm not a girl...anyways, here's emily fields!"

everyone clapped and i took a deep breath as the music started.

"It's the most beautiful time of the year

Lights fill the streets spreading so much cheer

I should be playing in the winter snow

But I'mma be under the mistletoe

I don't wanna miss out on the holiday

But I can't stop staring at your face

I should be playing in the winter snow

But I'mma be under the mistletoe

With you, shawty with you

With you, shawty with you

With you under the mistletoe

Everyone's gathering around the fire

Chestnuts roasting like a hot July

I should be chilling with my folks, I know

But I'mma be under the mistletoe

Word on the street Santa's coming tonight,

Reindeer's flying through the sky so high

I should be making a list, I know

But I'mma be under the mistletoe

With you, shawty with you

With you, shawty with you

With you under the mistletoe

With you, shawty with you

With you, shawty with you

With you under the mistletoe

Aye, love, the wise men followed the star
