As kaycee shook her hands, trying to release some nerves, she felt her phone buzz in her pocket, she smiled as she found a text from her best friend.

Kaycees nerves lowered as she placed her phone back in her pocket, feeling lucky to have a friend that was so supportive of her.
"Ok were gonna start our auditions now." a loud voice came out over the loud speaker. "first up, the legend himself, Mr. Sean Lew."
everyone cheered, excited to hear his performance. Sean took quick steps out to the middle of the stage, waving to the drama teacher who was seated in the audience. The music started and kaycee instantly recognized the song to be this town by Niall Horan. She had never heard him sing before, but wow was he incredible, she could now see why he always the lead... it was well deserved. he sang with a softness that broke her heart. She watched him intently from the curtains, tears welling in her eyes.
everything comes back to you...
he finished, breaking character and giving small laugh and a bow before running off, greeted with high fives and praises by his friends. kaycee discreetly wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, wondering how someone like him could sing like that...

seans pov
sean's audition had gone well, at least he thought it had gone well. he had sang one of his new favourite songs, his heart breaking every time he heard it, wishing he could relate to it, wishing he had a someone.
he went to sit down on one of the benches on the side of the stage, giving him good view of the auditions, scoping out who else was there. There were a few girls who had done the musicals in the past, some of them leading as his opposite lead, but were never good enough to get it again the next year, there had never been anyone who had just clicked with him. Sean watched a few audition, all were pretty decent, but nothing extraordinary.
"next up... kaycee rice!" the announcer said, as a small girl with dark hair walked sheepishly out onto the stage. Sean had never seen her before, and wasn't sure how he hadn't noticed her. she had a sort of glow that emanated from her, her eyes sparkling from the bright stage lights. She gave a small smile to the teacher and nervously took her place behind the microphone, taking a deep breath before the music started. A simple melody played from the speakers, filling the room with a calm innocence, she opened her mouth to start and sean's jaw dropped.
There you are with your college friends
You played in their marching band
I can't help but wish I knew you then
But I guess I know you now
It looks as if I've stumbled right into the palm of your hand
i see the light (pt 1)
Start from the beginning
