Sophia's pov :
Tonight I have Nationals tonight o for glee club. I'm really excited and this time Finn and Rachel. Everyone says Rachel and Finn are proud of me but I don't know . I just want to be as good as they are. "Sophia come on its time to go." Jax said waking me up on the bus. "Wow I can't believe we're in L.A ." I said holding his hand . "Okay guys rehearsal is at 3 and Nationals are at five so everyone go to your rooms get some rest and unpack." Sam said. "Think we can get a room together? " Jax asked jokingly. "Ay none of that!" Sam said getting between us. "You're worse than my father." I told him. "Not quite. " Finn said popping up behind us with Rachel. "Hi guys." I said. "Hey superstar." Finn said hugging me. "You nervous?" Rachel asked giving me a hug. "little bit I have a solo." I said . "Don't be you have your mother's voice , you'll do great we believe in you ." Finn said. I smiled and said , "Thank you. I'm going to go though and unpack I'll see you at competition? " I asked them. "We'll be in the front row." Rachel said. I smiled and went to the hotel.
(At competition)
"Ladies and Gentlemen up next is the New Directions. " The annoucer said. "You ready?" Jax asked me. "Yeah I just want Rachel and Finn to be proud especially Finn." I said. "They will be even if we don't win." He told me. I smiled and kissed him. "I love you. " He said. I smiled and said, "I love you too. " And I went on stage . I grabbed the microphone and looked out into the crowd and saw Finn and Rachel in the front row cheering me on and I smiled and started :
( Sophia )
Front row center in that little white church
I was singing at a baby laying in a manger
Eight years old wearing angel wings
Yeah, and to this day, that's what you see
(Smiles )
I've been daddy's little girl since my first cry
And it was hard turning eighteen, saying goodbye
You told me I was gonna take the world by storm
And Mama said you cried all the way home

You think I'm strong, you think I'm fearless
Even when I'm, I'm at my weakest
You always see the best in me when I can't
I wanna be the girl you think I am

I got my flaws and I've got regrets
And I know there's more on the road ahead
When I wonder if I'll ever measure up
Oh, I thank God for a father's love

Cause you think I'm brave, and you think I'm beautiful
You think that I can do the impossible
You always see the best in me when I can't
I wanna be the girl you think I am

Oh, whoa
Oh, whoa
The girl you think I am, yeah
Ooh
Ooh, yeah

All I want, more than anything
Is to make you proud of me

Cause you think I'm strong, and you think I'm fearless
Even when I'm, I'm at my weakest
You believe in me; yeah, you're my biggest fan
So I wanna be the girl you think I am
I wanna be the girl you think I am
(End of song )
Everyone clapped giving me a standing ovation I bowed and the New Directions came out and we started the next song :
[Sophia :]
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee, ee-ee.

Stripped to the waist,
We fall into the river.
Cover your eyes,
So you don't know the secret.
I've been trying to hide,

[Sophia and New Direction girls:]
We held our breath,
To see our names are written.

On the wreck of '86,
That was the year,
I knew the panic was over.

[Sophia:]
Yeah, since we found out,
Since we found out,

[Sophia and ND girls:]
That anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could...

[ND girls:]
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee,
Ee-ee, (ee-ee).

Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee, (ee-ee).

[Jax:]
After the war,
We said we'd fight together.
I guess we thought,
That's just what humans do.
Letting darkness grow,
As if we need it's palette,
And we need it's colour.

But now I've seen it through,
And now I know the truth.

[Jax and New Directions girls:]
That anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could...

[ND girls:]
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee,
Ee-ee, (ee-ee).

Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee.

[Jax:]
Baby, I'll give you everything you need,
I'll give you everything you need, oh,
I'll give you everything you need,
But I don't think I need you.

[Sophia:]
Stripped to the waist,
We fall into the river.
Cover your eyes,
So you don't know the secret.
I've been trying to hide.

[ Sophia and ND girls:]
We held our breath,
To see our names are written.
On the wreck of '86,
That was the year,
I knew the panic was over.

[Sophia :]
Yeah, since we found out,
Since we found out.

[Sophia and ND girls:]
That anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could happen,
Anything could...

[New Directions:]
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be,
I know it's gonna be.

[Sophia:]
Oh yeah.

[New Directions:]
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee,

[Sophia and ND girls:]
But I don't think I need you.
Ee-ee, (ee-ee).
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee,

But I don't think I need you.
Ee-ee, (ee-ee).
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee,

But I don't think I need you.
Ee-ee, (ee-ee).
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee, ee, ee-ee,
Ee, ee-ee, ee
(End of song )
Everyone clapped for us and then we did the final song :
(Jax)
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
(Sophia )
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
(Guitar solo)
(Jax)
A singer in a smokey room
(Sophia)
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
(Both)
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on
(Sophia)
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night

Streetlight, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
(Guitar solo)
(Jax)
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anythin' to roll the dice
Just one more time
(both)
Some will win, some will lose
Some are born to sing the blues
And now the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
(All)
Strangers waiting
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows searchin' in the night
(Both)
Streetlight, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
(Guitar solo)
(All)
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people

Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people

Don't stop!

(End of song )
Everyone clapped and we all bowed and went off stage. "Sophia we're so proud of you!" Finn said squeezing me in a hug. "Can't breath." I said laughing. "Sorry." He said and we all hugged.
