Y/N's P.O.V.

I didn't want to go out but of course, Scott is making me. It's 4:30 and I guess I have to get ready. I hop in the shower and let the warm water fall on my skin. It relaxes for me and for moment I swear I forgot all about Mitch. 

I get out of the shower, dry my hair, and straighten it (If it isn't naturally straight.) I put on my over sized black sweatshirt and black skinny jeans. I don't even bother with makeup because I truly don't care what I look like, even though I do look horrible.

It's now 6:30 and I'm waiting on Scott so I go ahead and put on my black converse. All black since I don't want to stand out in the crowd. I get on my phone and go right to twitter. I see that Mitch has posted a lot about hoe good hes doing and then one post from Scott telling Mitch that hes glad that hes having fun. I hear Scott down the steps and say "Ready?" 

"I guess." I say and walk out with him to the car. I get in the passenger seat and look out the window the entire drive there. 

When we arrive Scott helps me out of the car and we go into the bar together. The rest of the group is already there and we all sit at the bar together and order a drink. I don't order anything, yet. They all drink the beer until Scott says "Hey we should go and perform a couple of our songs! I mean no one is doing the karaoke now, so they shouldn't mind." 

"But we're only 4/5 of Pentatonix! What about Mitch's part? Without it the songs will sound empty." Kirstie says.

"You have a point. But hey Y/N you memorized Mitch's parts in the songs, right?" Scott turns to me.

I'm tempted to say no but say "Sadly, yes." 

"There! She can sing with us. Please?" Scott begs.

"I guess..." I trail off. They all cheer and drag me onto the stage. Scott asks the guy if they could perform a few of their songs and the guy said yes. We each get our mics and run onto the stage. I stand there all shy, did they really think I could sing that well? Surely I can't and I start to panic thinking that I'm going to ruin the song. Scott starts to introduce us quickly and says "Hey guys! So we're 4/5 of Pentatonix at the moment so our friend Y/N here has volunteered to fill in for our missing member!" Scott says. I hear a few screams from what must be some fans that are mixed in with the audience. "So the first song we'll sing today is a song called Cracked. I hope you all enjoy!" Scott says and with that Kevin counts us off. Scott begins singing and soon enough it's time for me to join in the song.  I sing my part and everyone screams. 

We continue the song and about 3/4 of the way through I notice that I'm actually having a lot of fun doing this. I have a smile on my face and I'm bouncing around to the beat as I sing. the song ends and everyone screams once the the applause quiets Scott introduces the next song. "So if you don't mind the next song we're going to sing is a sing called Can't Sleep Love. Sing it with us if you know it!" Scott says. He walks over to me and whispers in my ear "Do you know Tink's part? Can you do it?" I nod and he quickly tells everyone else who gives me a reassuring smile. We begin with snapping and I start with the back round part that Mitch usually sings. My eyes find Jeremy in the crowd smiling and gives me a thumbs up. 

The crowd falls silent as we approach Tink's rap. Am I going to be able to hit the high note right after? I ask myself. The band falls back leaving me up front to sing Tink's part.

  Rejected heart, feels like a veto 

We can't last if your love is incognito 

A bit of time, that's all that I ask 

You know you leave me out too long and I'll go bad 

Verbatim, I'm hot as a volcano 

You want a taste, you better be bringing more to the table 

Speaking of, I want your love sweeter sweet and low, low, low(Come on) 

Come set me on fireYou gotta be the man of my desire 

Yes, I'm yearning, butterflies returning 

To get the usualGet deep as a swimming pool,yeah yeah 

Bottled up with all of these emotions

 You know I got to pour this out to someone 

My sweet love  

Now I have to hit that high note. I do my best and the crowd literally goes wild screaming stuff like 'Your amazing!' or 'I love you!' which brought a huge smile to my face and I sang. Confidence filled me. They liked me. We finished the song and Scott talked again. "So we're going  to do one last song for you, it's called Na Na Na." The crowd cheers. My eyes widen as a realize that Mitch is the lead in this song. Scott pushes my to the center of the stage. Ok, I was fine with doing background and the occasional solo, but the LEAD?! I'm not ready, I'm going to ruin it all now. The band starts with the clapping and soon enough I start singing. To late to back out now. A smile finds it's way to my face the entire song as the crowd dances to the song. I start bouncing around with the beat as I sing. The song is soon over and I'm out of breathe. "Thank you all, so much." I say into the mic and we all walk off stage. We find our seats near Jeremy and I find myself actually in a good mood! Mitch isn't haunting my head just the people who I'm sitting with that are my friends. 

I end up ordering a couple drinks. Occasionally come up to me and tell me I did great and they love me voice. By the end of the night I'm a little tipsy.

Next Morning

I wake up in my bed, slightly confused. I picked up my phone to look through Twitter. Every other post was either of me singing last night or a picture of it. WAIT WHAT! Someone posted that?! No, no ,no. Everyone is going to hate me. I look through at who had retweeted it and find that Mitch had. Hes gong to hate me! I looked at the comment he left on the video and surprised to that he wrote:

Y/N has always have been able to sing, I'm glad to see that she has finally broke out of her shell.

A smile appears on my face and for some reason I feel like a new person.
