Annie's POV
It's the next morning and I'm nervous. Why you may ask? Well, I'm giving an audition in front of Mr.Banks, Hayden, Mackenzie, Johnny and Tisha.
I know I'm not going to be on stage and I know I've sang in front of Hayden before. It's just, if I don't make the auditions, I'll let my mom down.
Then I'll have to go back to Maryland and face my same old life. I want a change. I don't want to be the same Annie LeBlanc.
Someone lightly knocks on my door. "Come in!" I say. Tisha walks in with a smile plastered over her face.
"How are you honey?" She asks, sitting down next to me. "Nervous." I say. "It's okay. I'm sure you have a beautiful voice. I'm excited to hear you sing!" Tisha smiled.
She's so kind, I don't understand why Tisha hasn't won a noble prize for 'kindest person ever' "Wanna know a secret?" She partially whispered.
"Mr.Banks hasn't liked the other auditions so far. So you have a chance!" She said. Was that suppose to cheer me up? That made my stomach churn.
If Mr.Banks hasn't liked any of the auditions so far, what chance do I have!? Ugh, maybe I'm being pessimistic.
"Come down for breakfast when you're ready." Tisha said. She got off my bed and walked out, shutting the door behind her.
I sigh and go take a shower.
Hayden's POV
Annie is a really cool person. There's something about her that gives me a feeling in my soft spot.
I really need advice about Kenzie and Johnny right now. Annie seems like the person to talk to.
I walk to her room and open the door. "Hey Annie I-" before I could finish my sentence, I see Annie half dressed. She was in her bra and pants. I quickly cover my eyes with my hands.
"I am so, so sorry. I should've knocked." I said with my hands still over my eyes. My cheeks started to burn. I could tell I looked like a tomato.
I felt a pair of hands touch mine. I look in front of me, Annie full dressed. She pulled my hands away from my eyes. "So, what did you need?" She asked, going back over to the dresser and doing her hair.
Wow, she didn't even care I walked in on her. "First of all, sorry for walking in on you." I mumbled. "It's fine." She said, turning her head to me and smiling.
God, she looks so pretty. "Um, I needed advice... for John and Kenzie. Today's the first time I'm seeing them after the whole drama. What should I do?" I ask.
She turned her head to me, again. "Well, who's fault do you think it is?" Annie asked. "Um, well Johnnys the one who made a move. But Kenzie kissed back... ugh I don't know." I said I'm frustration.
She nodded her head. She walked up to me and placed her hand on my shoulder. "In my word of advice, do what your heart tells you. I know, it sounds cheesy, but you asked me for advice." She smiles.
Annie removed her hand from my shoulder and walked out of her room. Leaving me be. She's right. I should follow my heart.

Annie's POV
I was sitting on the couch, with nervousness taking over my body. "Are you okay Annie?" Tisha asked me, walking over to where I was sitting.
"Um, yeah. Just... nervous." I said. "Don't worry dreary." She said. She motioned Hayden to come over.
Tisha whispered something to Hayden. He walked over to me. "Hey, remembrance what I told you when we were upstairs in the attic?" Hayden said.
I nodded. "You said I should close my eyes and focus on my voice. No one else, and nothing else. Just me and my voice." I smiled, meeting his charming eyes.
"Yep! Good luck, you'll do great." He smiled. Then I did something my heart told me to do. Not my brain. I gave Hayden a hug.
"Thanks." I whispered in his ear. He immediately hugged back. "Anytime." Then we released. Soon enough, the doorbell rang.
Tisha opened it, letting in Johnny, Mackenzie and Mr.Banks. Mr.Banks made eye contact with me which made me even more nervous.
"So you're the so famous Annie I've been hearing about. Hayden told me your voice is angelic! Let's see if that's so." Mr.Banks smiled.
I looked over to Hayden who's cheeks were turning a shade of bright pink. I softly giggled to myself.
Johnny and Kenzie shook my hand and sat down in front of me. Kenzie somewhat gave me a dirty look, but I just shook it of. It was probably just my imagination.
"Alright Annie, on your cue. Johnny will play the guitar for you." Mr.Banks said. I nodded and took a deep breathe.
Johnny began playing the guitar and I sang the song that I sang in front of Hayden. I sang my heart out. Forgetting my surroundings.
After I finish my song, I look around the room with everyone's mouths dropped to the floor. "Heavens, I haven't heard singing like that, well, since ever!" Mr.Banks exclaimed, fixing his glasses.
"Wow, that was really impressive Annie! I haven't heard of that song. What's it called?" Johnny asked. "Thanks, I actually wrote it. It's called ordinary girl." I smiled.
"Clearly we've found our audition winner! Welcome to the music industry Annie!" Mr.Banks said with a smile on his face.
I stood up in shock. Really!? "Really! Thank you so much!" I said I'm disbelief. "I'll see you in two days. Congrats!" Mr.Banks said.
After they leave, I start jumping around in excitement. "Congrats Annie! Mr.Banks is really hard to impress!" Tisha smiled.
"Great job Annie!" Hayden said pulling me into a hug. I smiled and blushed slightly. "I have to tell my mom!" I smiled.
I used Haydens phone again and told my mom everything. She was super excited for me, as with Caleb and Hayley.
Today's just been a dream come true!
