¤Laura P.O.V.¤

"Isadora you sing really well. Can you sing something for us now?" My aunt begs.

"I don't know" I mumble.

"Come on Laura can you sing for us?" The boys beg in unison giving me puppy eyes.

"Don't look at me like that!" I exclaim frustrated.

"Like what?" Harry asks in an innocent voice

"You know exactly what I'm taking about, don't act innocent. You look at me with those puppy eyes" I say back anger and annoyance intwined into my voice.

"Please. Pretty please with a cherry on top, unless Niall eats it" Louis says.

I look away and look at the booth and the mic. I look back at the 7 eager faces. I look at my instruments and I walk to my soundboard, I turn the volume all the way up. I walk inside the booth and scream into the mic, "Only this once!"

All the boys flinch will the girls cover their ears. I laugh into the mic and Zayn runs to the soundboard to turn down the volume. He presses the talk button.

"Okay, okay we get it. Only this one now please don't scream or laugh when the volume is that high" he begs. "What sing are you going to sing?" He then asks.

"Um, just press the shuffle button and it'll choose a song," I tell Zayn pointing at the button. "It'll come out with only music, no vocals." I commented before Patty came running and pushed the button.

The music started coming through the headphones and I recognized the song, Breakaway by Kelly Clarkson. I started the "dah dah dah rah dum"s while swaying to the music

"Grew up in a small town 

And when the rain would fall down 

I'd just stare out my window

Dreaming of what could be 

And if I'd end up happy 

I would pray

Trying hard to reach out 

But when I'd try to speak out 

Felt like no one could hear me

Wanted to belong here 

But something felt so wrong here 

So I pray 

I could breakaway

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly 

I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky 

And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun 

But I won't forget all the ones that I loved 

I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway

Wanna feel the warm breeze 

Sleep under a palm tree 

Feel the rush of the ocean

Get onboard a fast train 

Travel on a jet plane, far away 

And breakaway

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly 

I'll do what it takes 'til I touch the sky 

And I'll make a wish, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun 

I won't forget all the ones that I loved 

I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway

Buildings with a hundred floors 

Swinging 'round revolving doors 

Maybe I don't know where they'll take me but 

Gotta keep moving on, moving on 

Fly away, breakaway

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly 

Though it's not easy to tell you goodbye 

I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway

Out of the darkness and into the sun 

But I won't forget the place I come from 

I gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change 

And breakaway, breakaway, breakaway."

I took of my headphones and looked out the window if the booth. The boys were looking at the soundboard while my aunt and Anne were looking at me gobsmacked. I looked at the sight in confusion and walked out the booth.

"So..." I asked the boys trying to get their attention.

They all looked up at me and their mouths' were hanging again.

I laughed, "Was I that bad?" I questioned.

"No!" They all screamed. I flinched at the sudden outburst.

"You were..." Zayn tried to talk but was cut of by the 4 other boys

"Awesome" Niall said

"Fantastic" Louis screamed

"Great" Harry yelled

"Perfect" Liam said calmly, but enthusiastically.

"Sweetie that was amazing" my aunt said

"I wasnt' that good" I said in a hushed voice.

"Weren't that good?! Girl you didn't even need Auto Tune." Anne said. She pressed the play button and my voice came out. I did sound good.

"Are you sure I mean that sound way to good?" I questioned

Louis was the first to speak of the boys, "Really?! I mean we are professionals and we don't hear people as good as you." Louis then snapped his fingers,"girl you could own this town with that voice."

"Really Louis I wasn't that good. Anyways you probably hear people that are better than me."

"NO WE DON'T!" All boys yell.

The boys turn to each other and form a group huddle. They must think that creating a circle could muffle their voices, because they were taking loudly.

"We need to get her signed." Harry said

"Yeah, but would uncle Si take her in like he did us?" Niall asked

"I don't see why not" Zayn answered

"Why wouldn't he anyway?" Louis questioned

"Exactly he wouldn't, he would sign her in a heartbeat when he hears her voice." Liam says enthusiastically.

"Um you know I can hear you right?" I question them, "I'm only like 3 ft. away." Then I add in a whispe, "Plus I doesn't help that you guys don't know how to whisper."

"Oops" they sat in unison. 'Seriously what's up with them saying everything together?'

"And just so you know I don't want you guys to do that." I walk out and go to the kitchen.
