Belinda's POV:
Breathe, Belinda. Breathe. You're just auditioning for the X-Factor in front of Simon Cowell and Paula Abdul. No biggie. I breathed in and out, knowing that I was next.
"Belinda Corazon?!" A stressed out looking woman said, coming into the green room.
"Yes?" I said.
"Come with with me!"
I followed the woman towards a red door. Strobe lights were everywhere. Before I could say anything, I heard the door slam behind me, it's loudness giving painful vibrations to my deaf left ear. I walked towards the dreaded stage that would decide if I would make it or break it. I was nervous. There are so many people....
I turned around, hoping to make a run for it.
"Oh come on, honey," Paula Abdul said, "Simon's not that scary."
The audience cracked up along with me.
"So what's your name, sweetheart?" Paula said with a welcoming smile.
"Belinda Corazon," I said nervously, "I'm 18 years old and I've been taking college classes in jouralism since I was 16."
"Wow, Belinda! That's some big studying! Let's see if your voice is just as big. What song are you going to sing for us today?"
"This L-love, by Maroon 5." I said, stuttering.
"Great! Hit it, boys!" Paula said, gesturing towards the band. I heard the first notes and immediately relaxed. I inhaled, and sang.
"I was so high I did not recognize
The fire burning in her eyes
The chaos that controlled my mind
Whispered goodbye and she got on a plane
Never to return again
But always in my heart
This love has taken its toll on me
She said Goodbye too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore
I tried my best to feed her appetite
Keep her coming every night
So hard to keep her satisfied
Oh!
Kept playing love like it was just a game
Pretending to feel the same
Then turn around and leave again
This love has taken its toll on me
She said 'Goodbye' too many times before
And her heart is breaking in front of me
I have no choice cause I won't say goodbye anymore
I'll fix these broken things
Repair your broken wings
And make sure everything's alright
My pressure on your hips
Sinking my fingertips
Into every inch of you
