Competition Of A Lifetime

Chapter 13:

I watched the sun set over the beach. I didn’t know how well I was going to go after that round. I don’t think I made much of an impression. I feel my phone buzz in my pocket and my inner scaredy cat comes out. I gracefully fall backwards off my chair and land on my butt. When I say gracefully, I mean full on spazzed out, with my arms flailing around in the air. I ripped my phone from my pocket and unlock it. I scan the email and roll over on the grass.

“Dear Chelsea,

Congratulations you have made it to the top 3. We have decided to dig out secret talents of the top 3. You have 24 hours to give us a video on you or your talent. Upload it to YouTube and send us through the link. Farewell and good luck.

Team Crafted”

I didn’t want to send a video of me dancing to them. I didn’t want to do a cover. I didn’t want them to know about my love of music. I don’t know why, but I was just not at all up to be judged on my musical abilities. After about 3 minutes of pure thinking, I decide on the talent I’m going to send them. I’m going to tell them I have a talent in media and directing. I’m going to send them the music video I made a few years ago for school. I recorded a music video cover of my friend signing people help the people and playing it on the piano.

-Time Skip because I have nothing smart to put here-

I send them the link and give them a description of what my talent was.

-Time skip hour of two again. Im sorry don’t kill me D:-

I decide to record a cover while I wait. I grab my guitar and set up the mic. I set my camera up on the tripod and hit record.

“Hey guys, this is a cover video for you guys. As most of you know, I made it to the top 3 in the TC competition and its killing me while I’m waiting for the results. So here you go.”

Hey there Delilah what's it like in New York City

I'm a thousand miles away

But girl tonight you look so pretty, yes you do

Times Square can't shine as bright as you, I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah don't you worry about the distance

I'm right there if you get lonely give this song another listen

Close your eyes, listen to my voice it's my disguise

I'm by your side

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

What you do to me

Hey there Delilah, I know times are getting hard

But just believe me girl, someday I'll pay the bills with this guitar

We'll have it good, we'll have the life we knew we would

My word is good

Hey there Delilah, I've got so much left to say

If every simple song I wrote to you

Would take your breath away, I'd write it all

Even more in love with me you'd fall, we'd have it all

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

What you do to me

What you do to me

A thousand miles seems pretty far

But they've got planes and trains and cars

I'd walk to you if I had no other way

Our friends would all make fun of us

And we'll just laugh along because we know

That none of them have felt this way

Delilah I can promise you

That by the time that we get through

The world will never ever be the same

And you're to blame

Hey there Delilah

You be good and don't you miss me

Two more years and you'll be done with school

And I'll be making history like I do

You'll know it's all because of you

We can do whatever we want to

Hey there Delilah here's to you

This one's for you

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

Oh it's what you do to me

What you do to me

(A/N The song is hey there delilah, and this story will be ending either next chapter or the one after...so yay!?)
