Twenty-seven; Audition

So baby,
•
•
tell me where
•
•
your love lies
•
•
Waste the day and
•
•
spend the night
•
•
Underneath the sunrise
•
•
Show me where
•
•
your love lies
•

You know that feeling you get when you have to present in front of the class? The feeling at the pit of your stomach, how anxious it makes you feel. Your heart is beating so fast you're sure everyone in the room can hear it, how sweaty your hands get that you have to keep constantly wiping them on your jeans. Your leg keeps bouncing up and down as your mind creates every worse possible scenario that could happen while your up there. Well that's exactly the feeling that's going through my body as I walk behind Jake and Tom, they somehow convinced me that it would be a great idea to audition for the talent show, I kept telling them it was the worst idea ever but then they bribed me with ice cream and they know I'm a sucker for junk food.

My hands were shaking nonstop as Tom and Jake walked with me towards the auditorium where auditions were being held for the talent show, come on you can do this, you can-, "I can't do this" I stopped walking causing Jake and Tom to turn around to face me, "Bianca don't start, you are doing this and it's final".

"You know Jake, you're supposed to be on my side"

"Well not today Bianca, I'm on the side of you following your dreams"

"More like my nightmares" I muttered under my breath, not low enough since it seemed Tom heard as he shook his head lightly, "Come on Bianca, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, you'll end up regretting if you don't"

"I don't know Tom, it's just being in front of a big group makes me so anxious, what if I mess up and get laughed at?"

"So many 'what ifs', do this for once in your life, I'll be right there supporting you"

"you promise?"

"I promise".

I walked up to the stage as it was my turn, I wiped my sweaty hands on my jeans as I took a step forward to the microphone, adjusting it to my height as my eyes kept glancing from the other people that were auditioning to the judges in front of me, when my eyes caught Madison's I knew that I was going to end up throwing up any minute, just breath, relax, "My name is Bianca Cruz and I'll be singing today".

I looked behind the judges to see Tom and Jake sitting down, they send me a thumbs up when they caught my gaze, "whenever you're ready". My heartbeat was going so fast I was sure everyone could hear it, clearing my throat,  "Well-l, I heard there was-s..." Madison and her friends giggle as my voice cracked, taking a deep breath I closed my eyes, come on Bianca you got this,
