**********"I want a little bit of California, with a little bit of London sky. I wanna take my heart to the end of the world, and fly away tonight!"
Fly Away is blasting throughout the car along with our screechy singing voices . Noelle, me and our favorite boy band music all in one car.
What could be better than traveling across the world with your best friend? Absolutely nothing.
"Paradise here we come!" Noelle yells out the window.
I chuckled and rolled my eyes at Noelle's remark, but I couldn't help letting out a scream of excitement as I recall the events leading up to now...
~ Flashback ~
"Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen!", the director spoke into a large megaphone that could be heard throughout the whole theatre, "Thank you all for coming and auditioning for 'Into The Woods' National Tour, but as you all may or may not know only a few can go through."
Noelle pokes my shoulder and I turn to see her already looking at me.
"What's wrong, Elle?"
She looks down at her hands and starts nervously twirling her thumbs in circles. I grab her hands and her bright blue eyes dart up to mine.
"Hey. It's ok to be nervous. If we don't make it so be it. There are tons of other shows out there going on tour so we'll just audition for another. We'll be ok. Ok?"
She smiles and nods her head. I smile back and embrace her tightly.
"Here is the moment you all have been waiting for," Elle lets go quickly and looks straight at the director, "the National Tour for the 'Into The Woods' cast."
I grab Noelle's hand and shoot her a good luck smile. She gives my hand a squeeze and starts fidgeting in her seat.
"The following names will proceed to Australia: Ariana, Meaghan, Brady, Chris, Katerina, Kyley, Chad, Mason, Madi, Noelle..."
The director's words slowly faded away as Noelle and I look at each other, both with eyes wide and mouths open.
"...Gwen, Ally, and Jack. Congratulations to the National cast of 'Into The Woods' if your name was called please exit to the right to collect your plane tickets, theatre passes, and rehearsal schedules. Everyone else exit to the left. Thank you. That is all."
Everyone starts exiting to their assigned exits. Noelle and I stay seated and try comprehending what had just accorded. I look at Noelle who has tears in her eyes, which obviously makes me start crying, and I say to her,
"Told you."
~ End of Flashback ~
"You have arrived to your destination."
"Why thank you Australian Siri!" Noelle says with a chuckle.
I walk to the back of our Ford Flex, pop the truck, grabbed my bags, and let Elle grab hers.
"Ready?" she says to me.
"Ready as I'll ever be."
I laughed and grabbed her arm as we both begin running towards the airport entrance. Once we were inside I double checked our plane tickets for the right boarding exit.
Exit A5; section AA; seat 23
Exit A5; section AA; seat 24
Australia here we come.
~ 22 hours and 35 minutes later ~
"Thank god!", I said to Elle, "We're finally off that crowded plane."
