I'm Looking For You(One Direction)

Ch. 21 Singing For Simon

¤Laura P.O.V.¤

THE Simon Cowell is standing in front of me.

Don't freak out

I can't help it I'm fan girling so much right now. To me Simon is the biggest name ever, well almost, but he's still up there. He can make or break a career in the music industry. Back in the states he was the major judge on American Idol. I guess you can call it X-Factor, but it's still way different. AI is only for 18+, while X-F is for younger people. I would always watch and I usually criticized people exactly like Simon.

"Yes I am Simon Cowell. You must be Laura." He grabs my hand and shakes it.

"Yes, that's me." I look at Zayn, "why am I here for a band's meeting?"

"Oh, it's not a band's. It's an, audition." Louis tells me.

I look at the group confused. My eyebrows are trying to touch each other.

"Audition?" I question them.

"Yes Laura, this is an audition. In fact, this is your audition." Simon tells me.

"Excuse me, what?!" I turn to look at the band, "I said I didn't want any help."

"Ooh sweetheart, you're not here by their request. You're here by my request." I turn to look at Simon again.

"I'm here because the Simon Cowell asked me to be here. How is it that I don't believe in the slightest bit?" I put my finger on my chin, "Ooh I know why, because my neither and his friends told you about me and then begged for you to give me a shot. Am I close out did I hit the bullseye?"

"Bullseye" Simon points at the boys. "Zayn came in here saying that he knew someone who was related to him, he told me he was your cousin, but then found out you were sibling. They said you had an amazing voice. They wanted you to cone on and see if I could help you. That is why your here."

"So I'm here by semi-request from you and semi-begging?"

"Exactly" he moves to the door, "so if you'd follow me, I need to heart your voice."

We all follow him and we walk into a music room. He walks up to a cello and motions me over.

"Can you play this?" I nod abs grab the cello and take a seat.

Start to play a nice classical tune then change to something more modern. Simon stops me and give me a violin. I do the exact same thing to a different song. He then gives me a viola and I do it again. He leads me to ths piano and I scoff at this. I play fur elis then change to a kind of rock sounding kind of song. He makes me play the guitar, bass, drums, all the wind instruments in the room and my lips starts to become sore.

"Okay boys. You were right she can play anything. Now the real question is her voice." He turns to me, "is there anything you'd like to sing?"

"Um, can I sing something in Spanish?"

"If that's what you'd like to sing go ahead. Just what song is it?"

"Mi Corazoncito by Aventura"

"Oh. I've heard today song before, just once actually, but at least I will hear the difference between the original and you're voice" he opens the for to the recoding booth abs I put the headphones on. I hear the music start and I start to sing.

"Mi corazoncito esta de luto por tu amor,

prendo dos velitas y te escribio una cancion

es un poco necio y se llena de complejos,
