Mellifluous // lrh

"I loved the sound of something beautiful. Something that was worth listening to but something that was good enough to just be a background noise also. It entertained me to scroll through covers of people willing to become famous, to join the life that I was now in.

I was famous, movies were popular  and received a lot of rewards, but I never really took it all in. I was too busy trying to find the perfect voice, the perfect person and once I did I was relieved.

At first I didn't think much of it, I thought that he was just like everyone else. He was 14 when I first found out about him, me being 13 then. I was on my way to fame too, I guess I was found first. But I couldn't help to see something different about him, his voice was just so mellifluous and I couldn't stay away. I continued to watch him as years went by, he joined a band and was now touring around the world.

The 17 year old boy was now doing something with his voice, and I couldn't wait for the chance to meet him."

Time. I thought as I stared at the clock in the dressing room, I had 10 minutes to finish getting ready before I was forced to show my face on the carpet. It was an award show that I was more than likely going to win another award from, it got boring at times the awards never really bothered me.

New people were going to be there though, new bands, new artists, people who have only just joined the fame life. It's been three years since the first audition I had performed, the audition that brought me here to become one of the most renowned actress. I was 16 and my life was only just beginning, yet I was stuck here.

It wasn't a bad place to be in, everyone wants to become famous at some point in their lives but when it comes to wanting a life where you don't have people following you every second of every day, it just doesn't happen.

And so I continued to get ready, being stopped every now and then with people fussing about the heavily placed make up that was on my face. I was told to stop and to not ruin my make up or hair as I grabbed hold of the dress that I was supposed to wear and put on, now walking into the bathroom.

It was a short black dress and it made my green eyes pop out more than usual, the dress flowed out towards the end and was tight around the chest area, and if I wasn't having to wear this to go to some award show, I would have loved it.

I grabbed the heals that I was able to choose on my own commands and put them on, grabbing my bag that was placed on the side. I looked into the mirror that was in front of me and rubbed my red painted lips together before smiling a strained smile. I was used to making my smile look realistic, even though I wasn't sure myself if it was real or not most of the time.

My bag vibrated under my grasp and I reached in to grab my phone that now vibrated a second time. I turned it on and checked my notifications to see that my brother, Cole, had messaged me. I messaged him back quickly to tell him that I was busy and that I would speak to him soon before checking my other notification.

I smiled when I saw the twitter logo and realised that it must have been Luke Hemmings, he is the only person who I have the notifications on and I almost screamed out in joy when I read the tweet.

@Luke5sos:
whos ready to see us live at the award show tonight :-)

I had only just realised what award show he was going to and I couldn't keep the scream in this time, which I realised was now a bad idea as a group of people were now banging on the bathroom door asking what had happened and if I was okay, I kept on replying with the simple "yeah, im fine" and soon they left me alone to smile and laugh at how crazy I am.
