"Marci did you know that the song you tried out for was a song that I wrote for your mum?" I asked as she got out of the car
"Yes daddy. Please don't tell mum. I want it to be a surprise." She said while she walked up the driveway
"I won't tell her." I said as I opened the door. Once we got to the kitchen table I noticed that everyone was sitting at it
"Everyone Marci made it! And it's tomorrow." I said as Marci jumped up and down
"Yeah! I'm gonna be the finale!" She said as her sisters gave her a hug.
The Next Day Sky's POV
I got myself and the girls ready for today then I went downstairs to talk to Marci. I knocked on the door trying not to cry then she opened it
"Mum!" She gave me a hug
"I just want you to know that me and your daddy are very proud of you. It takes guts and talent to do what you're doing. I know you'll do great." I said while giving her a hug
"And I just want you to know that your not allowed to have a boyfriend until your sixteen." Shawn joked from behind me
"Okay daddy." She said.
Once we got there people were moving around and I wanted to make sure no one took my seats
"Melody and Naomi let's go get our seats." I grabbed their hands
"Actually your mum said that she would sit with the girls." Shawn said as I looked to my mum who was almost to the seats. We waited for a long time and jumped several times when the judges hit the buzzers. Marci looked so confident like she knew that she would be the best and I couldn't tell her to not be that cocky because I don't know how she sounds. It was finally Marci's turn and my heart beat was so rapid as she walked onto stage. Shawn pulled me close and Tyra smiled as the crowd awed
"She's adorable." Tyra said as I smiled "Hello." Simon said
"Hi." Marci said
"What's your name and how old are you?" Simon asked
"I'm Marci Mendes and I'm four years old." She said
"Let's see your talent then." Howie said as I made my embrace on Shawn tighter. Then, familiar music started playing and an angelic voice rang out "Wow she's great." Tyra said, causing me to look around the crowd and see that everyone was standing then I heard the part that made me realize the song 'And I can't stay. Just let me hold ya for a little longer now. And take a piece of my heart and make it all your own. So when we are apart you'll never be alone.' She sang as I cried into Shawn's chest. Then the song ended
"What made you sing that song?" Simon asked
"Well my dad sang it for my mum. Then when I had cancer he sang it to me and I think that just helped me fight cancer even better." She said "That was just amazing! I'm speechless." Howie said as I slowly let go of Shawn
"You have definitely made your family and everyone with cancer proud!" Mel B said while tapping the table "Your what four? You sound like you've had the training of a pop star." Heidi said then looked at Simon
"I'm still thinking." He said as my hands covered my mouth and my heart sank
"Can't wait to see you next round. It's a yes from me!" Howie said "Definitely a yes." Mel B said
"Yes." Heidi said
"Simon?" Howie asked
"I think your wrong. You all want her to advance to the next round. Well I don't. I want-" he stood up and hit the golden buzzer. I cried as I saw Marci frozen on stage then tears came down and Simon went on stage and gave her a hug
"Mom dad get out here!" He said as I ran over to my baby, swooped her into my arms and cried. Shawn hugged us too then Heidi stood up "Shawn Mendes is your dad?" She asked as I cried and nodded.
Marci, Shawn, and I walked off the stage
"I'm thirsty daddy." Marci wined
"I'll see if I can find you some water or something." Shawn said before running off.
"So you did advance to the last round." a voice boomed from behind me. I turned around and saw a man "I'm sorry?" I said while putting my hands on my hips
"Is this your sister?" the man said while kneeling down to Marci
"Mum! Stranger danger!" Marci yelled while hiding behind my legs
"She only made it because her daddy's a pop star!" The man yelled in my face "I can smell alcohol in your breath and I don't want you to make any hasty decisions." I said calmly
"You don't know anything about me!" the man yelled as Marci backed away "I know your drunk." I said
"Are you a pop star too? Think you know about drunks!" the man spat "My father's a drunk so yeah I know a little about drunks. Could you please leave me and my daughter alone?" I asked as the man stepped towards me "My daughter should've won!" the man yelled as he slapped me across my face, causing me to fall backwards and land on a table behind me.
Shawn's POV
I walked around backstage trying to find some water for Marci. Every corner I turned; there was always someone waiting there and wanting to take a picture with me. Once I finally fond some water I started back to Sky and Marci. I turned the last corner on my way to them with the biggest smile on my face. Then I saw them talking to a man and once I realized that the man was the one who was being rude to me just the day before; I ran to Sky. Right before I reached her, the man slapped her and she fell back. I grabbed the man by his shirt and punched him and didn't stop until the police showed up.
Sky's POV
I held Marci back as an officer broke up the man's fight with Shawn. They pushed Shawn against a wall and said "You have the right to remain silent." and they cuffed him as tears fell down my face.
