ON WITH THE STORY MY TRUSTY STEEDS.

JESS'S P.O.V.

"no nikki." i said. "c'mon please jess? you'll do great!" nikki begged. "ugh fine." i finally gave in. nikki's been begging mee to audition for the x-factor. "yay!" she yelled, and hugged me.

"showtime." i whispered to myself as i got ready for my audition. i was wearing a white flowing dress with white converse, and a white bow in my curled hair. nikki insisted i wear it for my performance, even though she knows that i absolutely hate wearing dresses. i walked down the empty hallway and reached the backstage area. several people wished me good luck, and i whispered a couple shakey thank yous. my name was called over the loud speaker and i stepped out from behind the curtain. i looked at the ground as i made my way to the microphone at the front of the stage. i pulled the microphone off its stand and gripped it tightly in my sweaty hands. "jessica benson." i said into the microphone and the judges nodded their heads. "and what song will you be singing for us?" one of them asked. "im yours by jason mraz." i stated into the microphone. "alright, you may begin." another judge said, and i racked my brain for the lyrics. i sung my heart out for about 15 seconds, but then i was interuppted. "okay, we've heard enough." the first judge said. "okay, thank you for your time." i said and put the microphone back onto its stand. i slumped my shoulders, knowing i didnt make it. i started to walk off the stage, tears threatning to escape my eyes. "congratulations ms.benson." a judge said, and i slowly turned around to face them. "excuse me?" i asked. the judges laughed, and i scrunched my eyebrows. "youve got some real talent young lady." the judge said. "seriously?" i gasped. and the judges laughed again. "seriously." one of them said. "oh my gosh! thank you so much mr. cowell!" i said. "well, welcome to hollywood ms. benson." simon cowell said, and i skipped off the stage. nikki greeted me backstage and i told her the big news. "you could be a celebrity!" was her response, and i laughed. "in my dreams..." i whispered.
