Lauren and I walk out the venue trying to squeeze through the crowd of people to get to our car.
"I can't believe we get to try out to be up there with them!" Lauren said in amazement.
"But we only have three days to prepare and our routine has to be perfect." this is the big break we have been waiting for and I don't want to pass an opportunity like this.
"We'll be fine, we just gotta work really hard for the next few days."
"Okay okay we're fine." I said worried.
"Chill" Lauren said touching my shoulder.
We arrive to our apartment and get straight to work on our routine.
...
"I CAN'T DO IT UGH" I yelled in frustration curled up in the corner.
"Hey don't worry, its only the first day we still have 2 days to get better."
Lauren and I head off to bed but i cant fall asleep. I pull out my phone and and put my music on shuffle. I eventually calmed down and fell asleep.

Today was the day we were auditioning. We were joined by another hundred people trying to be their dancers too. Lauren and I got there early so we were right in front of the judges table stretching. Everyone went silent and we turned around to see the four boys and the tour manager walking towards the table. Lauren nudges me and whispers, "Michael is totally staring at you". I look over quickly and make eye contact with him for a slight second and then he turns away fast. I smile a little when I feel my face heat up and turn red.
We all stood up to begin learning the choreography. After a half hour of learning, the choreographer leaves us to begin the elimination round. She explained that we would just do the dance over and over and after each time they would go around and eliminate people. She said that they would continue to eliminate until around thirty people were left. When the elimination round ended, the remaining people would all come in individually or with a partner to performing their 6 eight-counts.
The music began and Lauren and I went all out. We killed it every time and everyone noticed. eventually the number of people went down to 30 and we were still there.
"We will now begin the personal choreography section, congrats to you all for making it this far'
We were last to go, which was bad for my nerves. We walked in and said our names and gave them our music. We backed up and hit our beginning pose. Adam started the music and we began our short routine. After we finished we were out of breath and sweating hardcore. Adam said thank you and we left the room. 10 minutes later they called me, Lauren and two girls named Chloe and Cindy. We all walked into the room nervous and excited.
"After all of today we have decided that you 4 are the strongest dancers out of everyone" Adam said.
Me, Lauren and Chloe all looked at each other smiling while Cindy stood away from us by herself arms folded. We ignored her and thanked them a million times.
"Rehearsals start on Friday in Houston, Texas at 6:30. You will be staying there for a month before the start of tour."
Lauren and I drove home practically peeing our pants and start packing right away.
"We need to go shopping I cannot be seen in these in front of them" Lauren complained.
"Agreed."
