Sorry for taking so long updating!, I wasn’t inspired at all, but then I saw some videos and my heart melted haha!
I apologize for the mistakes I may have, I’m still searching a proofreader (:, hope you guys like it!
Shakira POV
-What?- I couldn’t stand but feel a little bit nervous if what he was going to ask, my experience with boys wasn’t the best.
-Would you sing a song for me? One of your own, I like your style.- he said with a smirk on his face- Pretty please?
-Sure –I said giving him a hand so he could stand up- I apologize again, I didn’t mean to hurt you.
-What about this afternoon around 4? You can come here and we practice for rehearsals at the same time.
-It’s okay, see you later
Adam POV
I had bad thoughts about her as soon as I got home, but it was so good and relaxing doing things with her. She was not the typical “Omg its Adam Levine, I want to kiss him”. I went back to the studio at 3:50, and not surprising, she was there already.
-Always early Blondie.
-Don’t even mention my hair, I kind of miss my mess – she said laughing
-You should do that more often
-Dye my hair again? I don’t think so, it’ll be way too damage for my type of hair.-I couldn’t stop but laughing- What?
-I was referring to your laugh, it’s pretty cute, and you should laugh more.
-Stop it –she said blushing and with another laugh
-I’m just giving you an advice as your new coach, even if you don’t win this, you could for sure win the most contagious laugh in the world. –I saw her blushing even more, I liked it- Did you bring a song for me?
-I thought you were joking about that…
-I’m as serious as wining this competition-unconsciously taking her by the arm-be confident, you’re one of the best; you need to believe in yourself, because I do.
-Well I have one, but you won’t be able to understand it, it’s in Spanish.
-Go for it –I sat beside her while she took an acoustic guitar and started singing a soft melody, her voice is fresh, and sweet, without taking out her rasp, simply beautiful. After she sang, I gave her a hug, lately I couldn’t keep my hands away, but I had too.-For the battles you get to pick your own song, it cannot be one written by you though, as much as I would like.
-Can it be in another language?
-I already like the way you’re thinking, we would be the first to do that, which one do you have in mind?
- Je L’aime A Mourir, it’s a Francis Cabrel song, but I don’t know if America would like that.
-Do you speak French too?- I was kind of impressed, I already heard she could sing in English and Spanish.
-Better than English
-I think they will love it, you should add some parts in English and I bet you will make them fall in love with you- or me.
She started singing her heart out, I was so glad cameras weren’t there and she was doing amazing, her pitch, her approach to a song like that, and a mixture of three languages that for me could be translated as “Take me, I’m perfect”, for me, right now, she was…one of the most awesome girls I have known, even though I could see something in her eyes
Shakira POV
-I look all puffy with this dress
-What are you even talking about? You look like a princess –he said taking my hand, I had to admit that Josiah was a sweetheart, he was always talking to me and he was in my say situation, so we were there for each other. –We’ll do or best and hopefully they won’t put us against each other-He kissed my cheek and took my hand until we were in front of the judges.
Next thing I heard was Adam saying that I would be against Karina.
Adam POV
She was just perfect, with a blue dress, she looked like a princess, she started singing and this was ten times better than our practices, not only she sang in English, but in the Middle of the song she started in French. She was just flawless; I don’t have a word to describe how silence the studio was and that could mean only two things, either it was amazing or awful.
I looked around trying not to seem so crazy about her, I saw Blake leaning forward paying attention, Xtina was with a smile on her face and looked at me, and Usher gave me thumbs up.Back again to perfection, she looked at me, smiled, and I couldn’t stop grinning like a teenager, I felt like I was back in high school, I could take this girl to prom and I would be damn nervous asking her to go with me. All the coaches seemed to agree that even though Karina was an amazing singer, Shakira would be able to sing in any language, and in different styles, just like she has done. The decision was half and half, Usher gave his vote to Karina and Blake to Shakira, while Xtina said it was too hard for her because she loved both performances.
-This time is definitive, one artist must go home and the other would join us next round. Adam who would you pick…?
