As I walked up to my music room, nervous as hell, I realised one thing, what if I was rubbish? Then everyone here would take the mickey out of me even more...
As I walked in and up to my music teacher on the piano, my shyness over took me.
"Hello Olivia, How can I help you?" Mrs Jones asked me.
"Well, um, I was wandering if I could sign up for the talent show?" I said quietly, even though nobody was there as it was lunch time.
"Sure, and do you know what you'll be doing?" she asked getting off of the piano stool and over to some files.
"Um, yes." she picked out a piece of paper and turned to me.
"Fill in this and hand back tommorow..." I nodded.
The best thing about school? My music teacher, she helps me alot.
Nobody knows im good at music apart from her.
I walked out the room and felt un-ease...
---OneWeekLater---
Everyone knew I was going to be apart of it but nobody knew what I was doing or anything like that. We had five special guest judges and didn't know who they were. Beside them was my music teacher, drama teacher and of course our head teacher. Behind them was anyone who brought tickets. My family? Not at all.
"Now, performing Jar of Hearts is Olivia Maye!" and that was my que.
I picked up my guitar and went to the middle of the stage. I started to play come chords then sang staring at the floor...
"No I can't take one more step towards you,
Cause all that's waiting is regret,
And don't you know im not your ghost anymore,
You lost the love the l loved the most,
And I learned to live half alive,
And now you want me one more time,
Who do you think you are?
Runnin' round leaving scars,
Collecting your jar of hearts,
Tearing love apart,
You're gunna catch a cold
from the ice inside your soul
don’t come back for me
who do you think you are?
i hear you’re asking all around
if i am anywhere to be found
but i have grown too strong
to ever fall back in your arms
ive learned to live, half alive
and now you want me one more time
who do you think you are?
runnin’ ’round leaving scars
collecting a jar of hearts
and tearing love apart
you’re gonna catch a cold
from the ice inside your soul
don’t come back for me
who do you think you are?
it took so long just to feel alright
remember how to put back the light in my eyes
i wish i had missed the first time that we kissed
cause you broke all your promises
and now you’re back
you don’t get to get me back
who do you think you are?
running around leaving scars
collecting a jar of hearts
and tearing love apart
you’re gonna catch a cold
from the ice inside your soul
so don’t come back for me
dont come back at all
x2
who do you think you are?
who do you think you are?
who do you think you are?"
I looked up and saw a standing ovation! Cheers, screaming and people smiling. Everyone. Me. The nobody everyone picked on.
I looked at the judges, the was standing too... every single one of them. I know I was smiling big now.
I walked back and saw Elena, my enemy. She was shocked. She walked up to me.
"You were good." she said. I nodded.
"thanks." I put my guitar down and talked to people... the nobody.
It was time for the results. We all went on stage as the judges were having the talk.
"you deserve to win" Elena whispered in my ear.
"but im a nobody" I whispered back, gobsmaked from her comment.
"A nobody that should be somebody." I looked at her and hugged her.
"thanks"
the host came up and started to speak in the mic.
"We are glad to announce the winner is... Olivia Maye!"
I looked up from the floor.
"so, will you perform again?" the host asked.
I nodded. A dude came on stage and passed me my guitar. I looked out to the audience. "Thank you so much! And judges, what song will you like me to perform?" I asked. One of the guest judges (they were wearing hoodies and sunglasses) shouted out "TORN!!" I nodded.
"This one is Torn and is dedicated to the guest judges then!" I said laughing.
I started to strum the guitair and everyone stood up and started to dance.
"I thought I saw a man bought to life,
He was walm he came around he was dignified,
He showed me what it was to cry
You couldnt be that man I adore
you don't seem to know or seem to care what your heart is for...."
I carried on and actually looked up from the floor.
As I went backstage the guest judges came up to me.
"Um hi." I said shy.
"You're really good." One of them said.
"Yeah, never give up, okay?" what were they on about?
"Um. What are we on about?" I asked unsure.
"Your singing." the one in blue said.
"I only did it to stop the bullying." I replied.
they all looked shocked.
"Anyway, we have to go, here, take this." the one in purple hollister hoodie said giving me a card thing and walked away.
I looked at the card. It read "meet us outside starbucks, half 11 this saturday."
I turned the card over...
I am. GOBSMACKED. They HAVE to be kidding.. right?!
