When 19 year old Samantha Kelly signed up for the newest singing competition Bandslam she never knew just how much her life would change...
--------------------------------------------------------
A/N: Bandslam is set about 6 months after the end of...
"You ready?" Addilyn asks from beside me as I check my hair in the mirror. "I'm so nervous I think I might faint" I respond dramatically. I've been joking around the past hour in order to distract myself from thinking about the live audience on the other side of the stage.
"Well don't be, you're going to kill it" she says giving me a big smile. "We are all going to kill it" Riley adds, coming up and placing an arm around each of us. I look at both of them and instantly feel better. We've only known each other for about a week but I already know that I have made friends for life.
"Well I better go join up with the other girls. Good luck on your performances, I love you guys" I tell them, giving them both a hug before going to find my group. I spot Lucy and Lisa by the side stage talking to one of stage hands.
"Hey ladies" I greet them poking them both in the side. Ever since the first rehearsal I have gotten to know them both so much better and really created a bond that hopefully translates on stage. Courtney and Tara however haven't left each others' sides and only talk to us during rehearsals. "Where are Tara and Courtney?" I ask. Lisa rolls her eyes before pointing behind me, as I turn I see them both infront of the mirror messing around with their make up and hair, even though it has already been done and fixed a hundred times.
"I swear they have spent more time looking at themselves in the mirror then they have practising with us" Lucy states, making us all laugh. "I just wanted to tell you guys that no matter what happens tonight you guys are so talented and I'm so excited to share the stage with you" Lisa says pulling us into a group hug. "Agreed" I say with Lucy also nodding.
"Alright if everyone could get into their groups and get ready to head to the dug out" one of the producers yells, rushing around and organising everyone. Tara and Courtney strut towards us in their ridiculous high heels and tight outfits. The overall theme for our group was embroided flowers but we were able to personalise our looks to suit our style. I picked a little shift dress and brown heels to look a little more dressed up but still comfortable.

"Nice of you to join us" Lucy says with fake enthusiasm. They both look at us and roll their eyes, not even bothering to respond. This is going to be a long night. All of a sudden they both perk up and begin fixing their outfits. I look at then in confusion before seeing what had caught their attention, the guys from In Real Life had arrived.
The guys made their way to each group, offering words of advice and encouragement. We hadn't seen them since the first mentoring session so we haven't been able to get to know each that well but Drew and I had texted a couple of times.
