Faking happiness - A Lisa Cimorelli story

Chapter 5

*Lisa's POV*

I'm so nervous for their answer, please tell me they want to start a band with me.

I can see them smirking as Christina says, “We decided that..”

“Yes? What did you decide?” I don't know where to look, so I just look at my hands.

“That we don't-”

“No, Christina why not? WHY?”

“Let me finish my sentence, Lisa.” Christina says kinda bossy.

“Okay, I'm sorry, you can finish it now.”

“Okay, so we decided that,” Christina looks at the others, “we don't want you to go on The X-Factor alone, so we will START A BAND WITH YOU.” Everyone cheers and I start hugging everyone and then we have a groups hug. I sigh in relief.

“Thank you so much! I was so nervous! But what song are we going to cover first? And who is going to arrange the harmonies and things like that?” I ask them.

“Okay, let's all write down a song that you want to cover and put it in this jar. I'll pick one paper out of it and that song we will cover, okay?” Christina says, we all nod.

What song shall I write down, hmm maybe The First Time by Boys Like Girls? Everyone knows that song, so we only have to decide who is going to sing each part.

*Christina's POV*

It's a really good idea of Lisa to start a band, we can all sing, play instruments and harmonize. Which song shall I pick for our first cover? I think I'll go with Best Thing I Never Had, because Lisa and I both know how to play it on the piano so we can do something with that. Yeh Best Thing I Never Had is a good idea.

*Katherine's POV*

I liked the idea of Lisa to start a band already when she said it, so I didn't even think about it and said yes. Hopefully, dad and mom will be happy for us and support us, but I think they will, since mom taught us how to play instruments and how to harmonize since we were younger. I hope Christina will grab my paper, because I want to cover Party In The USA, I really like that song.

*Amy's POV*

I didn't really liked the idea of starting a band in the beginning, because what if people from school are gonna see it and what if they are going to bully me? But Christina told me how much fun we would have, because we all love music so much, so I said yes. I really like country music, so I hope she'll take my paper. I wrote down I Want Crazy by Hunter Hayes.

*Lauren's POV*

I was the only one who didn't like the idea of starting a band I guess. Since the others agreed immediately, except for Amy. But she agreed later with them. I do like singing, but I don't how I'll feel in front of a camera, since I'm introverted. But yeh, we will see. I'm thinking of a song when I hear someone outside singing Cruise. Hmm that song sounds good, I'll write that down,

*Dani's POV*

I've always wanted to be famous and now we get the opportunity to sing, so why not, right? I've no idea which song to choose, I've so many songs in my head. Let's go with the song that I know the best, One Thing by One Direction.

*Lisa's POV*

“Okay, everyone. Put your paper in this jar.” Christina says, I hope she will grab my paper. Let's hope so.

Christina grabs a paper, “Okay, the song I picked is..” Christina says as she smirks. Really girl? Again? “C'mon Christina tell us!” “Christina, tell us, which song is it?” everyone starts yelling, I guess everyone is nervous.

“Okay, okay, calm down girls. The song is Best Thing I Never Had!” Christina says as she is smiling, I guess she wrote that down. “Who has chosen that song?” I ask. “I didn't.” “Me neither.” “It wasn't me.” “Not me.” Everyone says, except for Christina. “Did you choose that song?” I ask her, she nods. “Show us that it's really Best Thing I Never Had! I don't believe you!” says Dani. Christina starts pretending she's hurt and she starts sobbing, “Y-you don't b-believe m-m-me?” We all laugh at her attempt to trick us. She shows us the paper and it really says Best Thing I Never Had.

“Okay, now we need to arrange the harmonies and we need to see who is going to sing what part.” I say. “And are we going to do it with the piano, Christina?” I ask her, since we both know how to play it.

“Maybe you can arrange the harmonies? You are good at that. And I'll divide the parts. Oh and yes maybe we can do it with the piano, if the others agree?!” Everyone nods, so I guess that is a yes.

~Two hours later~

“Hi, I'm Christina.” “I'm Katherine.” “I'm Lisa.” “I'm Amy.” “I'm Lauren” and then it was silent, “Oh and I'm Dani.” we all laugh, and we re-do it, since we want to be it perfect.

“What goes around, comes ba-” “Alex, do you want to go outside with me?” Joey yells. Seriously? We were almost done. “Joeeeey, we are filming.” “Oops, I'm sorry Lisa.” And he hugs me, he knows I can't resist his hugs.

“EVERYONE, WE ARE FILMING, SO PLEASE DON'T MAKE ANY NOISE.” Christina yells, I guess everyone heard it.

~One hour later~

“Are we done?” Lauren asks. “I guess so, I'll edit it now.” I'm so nervous, what if people don't like it?

“I'M DONE, COME WATCH IT PLEASE.” I scream, hopefully they like it.

“Lisa, you did an amazing job!” Katherine says as she gives me a high five. I'm glad to hear that. “So, shall I upload it on YouTube?” “Yes, duuuuh!” Dani says. “Okay, he's uploaded! I'll tweet it!”

@LisaCim: hey guys, so most of you don't know this, but me and my sisters can sing. Here's our first video, hope you guys enjoy it! (link)

My interactions starting blowing up

“You are all amazing singers!” “Wow, didn't know you were such a great singer! And I loved the bloopers! Haha” “you guys suck” I didn't know what to say or how to react, of course I know everyone gets hate, but I didn't know what to do. It was the first time someone said that to us. I read some other comments, but they were all positive, so I just ignored that one hater.

I'm wondering how many views it'll have tomorrow. Then I got a text.

D: Hey babe! I just saw the cover, wow. Just wow, you're amazing! Keep singing, I'll always support you! Love X

L: Hey! Thank you so much :))), I love you so much! X

D: Goodnight, my beautiful lady. X

L: Goodnight handsomeee, love you xx

D: xxx

And with that I put my phone away and fell asleep.

~The next morning~

I'm so excited, how many views do we have? I open up YouTube and go to our account. Oh. My. God. And then I fainted.
