America's Princess (Random Updates)

Chapter 40

Ava chuckled as Olivia burst out laughing, "Alright, alright, once more but that's it," she said as she picked her guitar back up. Her eyes found Ava, "But on one condition. You have to let Ava record us."

"Okay!" The children actors giggled as they sat in a semi circle in front of Olivia.

Ava opened the video app then hit record before nodding. Olivia started strumming the strings on her guitar as she started humming. "Alright this is a new song that no one's heard before. I call it My Fight Song. Are you ready?"

"Yeah!" The kids shouted as they clapped. She giggled as the tune switched slightly. The kids grew quiet as they eagerly waited. (The song is originally sang by Rachel Platten)

"Like a small boat on the ocean

Sending big waves into motion

Like how a single word

Can make a heart open

I might only have one match

But I can make an explosion

And all those things I didn't say

Were wrecking balls inside my brain

I will scream them loud tonight

Can you hear my voice this time?

This is my fight song (hey)

Take back my life song (hey)

Prove I'm alright song (hey, ha)

My power's turned on (hey)

Starting right now, I'll be strong (hey)

I'll play my fight song (hey)

And I don't really care if nobody else believes (ha)

'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

Losing friends and I'm chasing sleep

Everybody's worried 'bout me

In too deep, say I'm in too deep (I'm in too deep)

And it's been two years, I miss my home

But there's a fire burning in my bones

Still believe, yeah, I still believe

And all those things I didn't say

Wrecking balls inside my brain

I will scream 'em loud tonight

Can you hear my voice this time?

This is my fight song (hey)

Take back my life song (hey)

Prove I'm alright song (hey, ha)

My power's turned on (hey)

Starting right now, I'll be strong (hey)

I'll play my fight song (hey)

And I don't really care if nobody else believes (ha)

'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

A lot of fight left in me

Like a small boat on the ocean

Sending big waves into motion

Like how a single word

Can make a heart open

I might only have one match

But I can make an explosion

This is my fight song (hey)

Take back my life song (hey)

Prove I'm alright song (hey)

My power's turned on (hey)

Starting right now, I'll be strong (I'll be strong)

I'll play my fight song (hey)

And I don't really care if nobody else believes

'Cause I've still got a lot of fight left in me

No, I've still got a lot of fight left in me"

The kids burst into applause as Olivia blushed while setting her guitar down. "So you think the fans will like it?"

"They crazy if they don't," one of the children said.

"Thank you," She giggled as the kids started to beg her to sing it again. "Alright, but only as long as you sing along with me." Ava nodded and started recording again as the children sang with her.

"Alright, alright," The director and producer clapped after the song was over. "Enough of the impromptu concert, you are needed back on set."

"We'll put on a performance this weekend," Olivia nodded, making the kids bounce in excitement, "BUT," she held up her hands to still them, "ONLY if you do all your school assignments without complaint and you mind your teachers and parents."

"Okay!" The children shouted as they took off to get ready for their scenes.

"Let me guess," Ava chuckled as she sat next to Olivia. "You want me to release both videos as a surprise to your fans."

"Yep," Olivia nodded. "Not only will it be good for the fans, but since I'm obviously dressed as my actor it will promote the video AND I want you to make sure those children get their royalties to their version of the song. The kids, Ava, not the parents. Set it up as trust funds for when they are adults."

"You don't trust some of those parents," Ava nodded, "I saw it too. I'll get right on it."

Olivia stood before turning to her assistant and best friend, "Get Owen, Victor, and Corey to help you."

"What are we doing?" Corey asked as they walked up to the girls.

Ava smirked, "You're coming to work with me, that's what." Olivia chuckled then waved as the make-up artists called her over. "Thank you for what you are about to secretly do," she kissed each of them on the cheek before starting to head to the artists. She turned back to the three men and chuckled at their perplexed looks. "Now be good boys for me and mind Ava. She's in charge now. My audience is waiting for me." She turned her back to them and headed to where she was needed with a mischievous look on her face.
