Third Person:

"What song should I sing?" Tikiyah asked the blonde before her on the couch, fidgeting around nervously. Her long skinny fingers tapping the microphone she held tightly. It was noticeable to see her eyebrows twitching nervously to her second viewer.

"Adorable...."

"Any song. It doesn't matter." Shu replied in his deep voice without a glance at the girl, his eyes closed in preparation to be dazzled by Tikiyah's "beautiful voice." "Just make it soothing and sweet."

"Right...." The chocolate girl bit her lip in thought as her hand hovered over Shu's phone on YouTube where she was supposed to search for her song to sing. She would listen to the music on the phone with the original singer and sing along with them through the microphone to expand her voice. She figured out how to use the microphone and the speaker but had no idea how to get the music from the phone to the speaker, Tikiyah knew she needed a plug but she couldn't find the right now. "I think I got it!" The girl exclaimed as she punched in the letters on the touch screen.

Shu opened one of his oceanic eyes to look at Tikiyah with a huff of amusement before putting it at rest again. "Let's hear it then."

Tikiyah plays the song on the phone and listened to the introduction of violins and a piano being played before the first verse comes on. She closed her eyes and tapped her fingers to the beat before singing:

Under the glow, of the very bright lights
I turn my face towards the warm night sky
And I am not afraid of a thousand eyes
When they're above
Five hundred smiles

Oh I used to think (Oh she used to think)
What wouldn't I give (What wouldn't she give)
For a moment like this (A moment like this)
This moment this gift

Tikiyah's voice was soft and a bit shaky from being so nervous but nice and soulful. Her eyes were crunched up shut and her head was down in fear to look up and see Shu watching with judging eyes and amusment from how horrible she sounded but to Shu, he thought she sounded pretty good. He listened in content, actually watching her as did that second viewer.

"Beautiful...song bird of mine..."

Oh, now look at me
And this opportunity
Is standing right in front of me
But one thing I know
It's only part-luck and so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight
I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight
So look at me and this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see

Now I find myself here, and it's time
This is real, an it's a gold mine
I'm not afraid to fly
When it's above
Five hundred smiles

Oh I used to think (Oh she used to think)
What wouldn't I give (What wouldn't she give)
For a moment like this (A moment like this)
This moment is gift

And now look at me and this opportunity
Is standing right in front of me
But one thing I know
It's only part-luck an so
I'm putting on my best show
Under the spotlight
I'm starting my life
Big dreams becoming real tonight
So, look at me and this opportunity
You're witnessing my moment, you see

My big opportunity
I won't waste it

I guarantee

The song was over. Tikiyah sighs in relief and opened her eyes but was anxious to know what Shu thought of her performance. If anyone knew musical talents, Shu did. "Well? Did your ears bleed?"
