Haven made her way to the piano placed in the middle of the room. She turned to the judges and announced "my name is Haven Matthews and I will be singing along to Skinny Love by Birdy in an addition I will be playing the piano." The judges nodded and showed no expression change from their blank faces. Haven smile nervously and sat at the piano bench and placed her fingers on the keys and began.

~Skinny Love- Birdy~

Come on skinny love just last the year,
Pour a little salt we were never here,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
Staring at the sink of blood and crushed veneer.

Tell my love to wreck it all,
Cut out all the ropes and let me fall,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
Right in the moment this order's tall.

And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And in the morning I'll be with you,
But it will be a different kind,
'Cause I'll be holding all the tickets,
And you'll be owning all the fines.

Come on skinny love, what happened here?
Suckle on the hope in light brassieres,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
Sullen load is full, so slow on the split.

And I told you to be patient,
And I told you to be fine,
And I told you to be balanced,
And I told you to be kind,
And now all your love is wasted,
Then who the hell was I?
'Cause now I'm breaking at the britches,
And at the end of all your lines.

Who will love you?
Who will fight?
And who will fall far behind?

Come on skinny love,
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my...
My my my, my my my, my-my my-my.

Haven's POV:
I had finished the song, I took a small breath out loud. Got up from my seat faced my body towards the judges said my thank you then walked to the exit door. I was scared I had examined their faces and body language not one of them moved a limb or showed any impressed facial expressions. Is that a bad thing? I questioned myself. I walked into the waiting room and was given a gigantic hug from Kara "you did great." She said smiling 'thanks." I said smiling back "we saw the whole thing, I told you, you were amazing." Mason said wrapping his arms around me. "thanks, I don't think the judges liked me." I said looking down. Mason and Kara were about to speak up but were interrupted when a girls voice pierced through my ears. "they hated it, you will see how judges react when they hear a true talent." The blonde haired girl said holding her cello in her hand. "Well good luck." I said giving a light smile holding back Mason's hand and Kara's arm. "Hmph don't need it." The blonde girl smacked as she turned her back and walked into the stage door. "who is that?" I asked releasing Kara and Mason. "her names Melody, she's really popular and her parent basically bribed the school to let her into the music, acting, dance, and cheer program." Kara said crossing her arms. "how did you know that?" Mason asked. "word got out, plus I heard some girls talking in the bathroom about her and I asked who she was and they said the girl with the cello who thinks she's all that." Kara said "well I'm not letting her get to me I came here to perform not make enemies." I said "she's right they won't announce who gets in till next week, so lets get a bit to eat." Mason said motioning to the door. "okay." Kara and I said as we walked out of the auditorium.

Once thy had finished their dinner, they all went to Mason's dorm. He insisted that the girls need to meet the three boys who he shared a room with. "are you sure they wont mind." Haven asked again as Mason opened the door . "it doesn't matter he invited us anyway." Kara said shrugging "she's right, you have nothing to worry about." Mason lead the way into the room.

"Hey." a tall blonde blue eyes boy said getting up from his seat said. 'Hey." Haven and Kara sync "the names Anthony,this is Preston, and Nathan." Anthony said pointing to a tall dark skinned boy with dark hair and brown eyes as he said Preston, and to a light brown haired boy with piercing blue eyes as he said Nathan. "Nice to meet you." Kara said smiling. "you too." Nathan said sending a wink her way. Kara had turned a shade of red and hid her face. "And you are?" Anthony asked. "Oh right I'm Haven and this is Kara." Haven answered. "well I will love to take you out for a date sometime." Preston said looking down at Haven. "Nice try Preston she's my girlfriend." Mason said wrapping an arm around Havens waist. "how did you get with a girl like her!?" Anthony exaggerated "who knows are you blind haven?" Nathan joked "no I'm not blind, Mason is cute if you ask me." haven said smiling up at mason pinching his cheeks. "he is cute." Anthony said pinching Mason's cheeks with Haven. "Anthony are you gay?" Kara asked curious. She didn't come of rude or anything just like a normal question. "yes yes I am thank you for noticing." Anthony said smiling. "its cool just curious I love gay people they are cool." Kara said "thank you." Anthony said wrapping her in a friendly hug.

We spent about 3 hours talking to the guys. Just getting to know them mess around with them, and they already instantly felt like best friends. "we need to get going classes start tomorrow." Kara said as we took in the time. "Oh Haven,do up want to come to my audition tomorrow?" Mason asked before Kara and I walked out the door. "sure what time?" I asked. "be ready at 6 it should end around 8 at night depending on how many people there is." Mason said "okay ill be ready, thank you for inviting me." I said walking over to mason giving him a hug goodbye. "okay see you tomorrow." Mason said as we walked out.
