Justin p.o.v.

Iknow facing Eagle Rock High students was going to be a challenge, after I ran off the stage. What would there reaction be? Find out in this part of He's Not All Bad.

It was Wednesday morning, sunny as usual. I had called Principal Jenkins the previous night to set the stage up like before. This time I knew what I was getting myself into and there is no turning back now. Arriving at the school early before anyone else I walked into the auditorium upon seeing Principal Jenkins testing out the microphone.

Principal Jenkins: Testing, Testing  1 2 3

Me: Hi

Principal Jenkins: You're back

Me: I'm back

Principal Jenkins: Nervous?

Me: Nahhh

Principal Jenkins: You know Justin you don't have to do this

Me: This isn't me to have stage fright. I don't know what happened. Sir I have to do this

Principal Jenkins: Be my guest you're a brave young lad

Me: Lad?

Principal Jenkins: You know *british accent* aye laddy

Me: Sorry sir but don't do that ever again

Principal Jenkins: They'll be here in 2 hours. Get ready, you can do this *walks off the stage and leaves*

Me: Alright Justin, you can do this

Believe

*2 hours later*

They arrived the auditorium was filled with chatter and laughter. As Principal Jenkins spoke clearly into the microphone my hands started tremble. My thoughts began to scatter. Kidrauhl where are you? I thought. Normally he fixes everything but its been a while since I heard from him. I may sound crazy, I may leave you starstruck or you could say its just my imagination but its not. Kidrauhl is me, the me before my bad boy image was created his name was Bizzle. You'll know more about who Bizzle was coming up but for now it was going to be me, that stage and the crowd. What if I forget the lyrics? What if they hate me?  What do I then? I was going to be fine, I knew I would be

Principal Jenkins: Welcome to the stage Justin Bieberrrrr!!!

I walked out unto the stage where I saw pairs of eyes glaring me down, some were akwardly silent, some were laughing but one person screamed " GO JUSTIN!!!" That person was no other than Emily. My hazel brown eyes searched for her in the crowd longing to be hugged by her but this had to be done, now or never. I walked up to the microphone and spoke

Me: Hi as you all know I'm Justin Bieber

Student: *yells* GAY!!!!

I tried to ignore

Me: I know some of you don't like me but....

Student: *yells* FAGGOT!!!

I went on

Me: But truth is you don't know me, the person I am as a human being. I admit my voice was high pitched when I was young, when I was him- His name is Kidrauhl. Some of you don't know who Kidrauhl is but he's the guy I was before, the guy I am now before I started smoking, drinking. I did some stupid stuff in the past for that I am sorry. I stand before you today not for you but for me. The first song is called "Believe"

I took a seat on the stool and lifted the guitar closing my eyes I sang my heart out

"I know how I got here

I know it won't be easy

But your faith in me was so clear

It didn't matter how many times I got knocked on the floor

You knew one day I would be standing tall

Just look at me now

Cause everything starts from something, something won't be nothing, nothing if your heart didn't dream with me

Where would I be if you didn't Believe"

Ifinished with 3 more songs, I added in an extra one "Pray"

"I close my eyes and pray"


That final note hit as I looked back at the crowd, they were silent. A pause. Then...... they were students on their feet. Whistling. Applauding. Cheering. It was all for me. After the concert and the auditorium was empty Emily stayed behind. With open arms she ran into them, I pulled her in as she held on tight. "You did it" she said. "I did it" I answered back calmly "I did it" as tears rolled down my cheeks.
