Elise's POV:

When I got to the location Spencer sent to us I notice a car that I recognize. I brush it off and lock up my bike. When I get inside I notice a couple people but not anyone I know. I walk into the corner of the room and scroll through Instagram. Then all of a sudden I feel these hands come over my eyes. Wait a second, I know those hands. I quickly turn around and see my best friend Sharon Belle. I let out a squeal. The whole room looks at us then goes back to their small talk. I jump into Sharon's arms.
"Sharon what are you doing here?"
"Well you know, just auditioning for a role in Carmilla."
"Oh my god Sharon! Which one?"
"I'm going to audition for the role of Susan LaFontaine."
"Oh Sharon that's awesome! I really hope we both get roles because it would be awesome to work together."
"Yeah I agree Elise. Uh hey I just noticed one of my other friends. I'm going to go say hi. See you later Elise!"
"Okay see you later Sharon!"

Natasha's POV:

When I walk into the room I can't believe my eyes. There are so many people in here. Then I notice Sharon standing in the corner of the room with a blonde girl. I then notice I am standing in the doorway still so I quickly move to another corner in the room. Sharon then meets me in the corner.
"Hey Nat!"
"Hey Sharon! Who was that girl you were talking to in the corner?"
"Oh she's uh a friend of mine"

I see a blush come across her face. Definitely not just friends. 

"Oh I see you guys are "friends"
"Seriously Nat her and I are just friends. I'm not into her."
"Okay so are you excited for the"
Just as I am about to finish a man starts speaking
"Hello everyone, for those of you who don't know my name is Spencer Maybee. We will be beginning the auditions. When you here your name called go into the room you are directed to. That's all for now, good luck to you all."

With that Spencer slipped away into a room. Names start to be called. 30 minutes pass before I hear my name. I walk into the room I was pointed to. When I walk in I notice three chairs. They are arranged with two facing the door I just just walked in and the other facing them. In the one facing the two I see a man.

He stands up and says "Hello I am Spencer Maybee, as you probably already know." 

He extends his hand. I do the same.

"Hi Spencer, my name is Natasha Negovanlis." 

"Hi Natasha it is very nice to meet you in person, you may take a seat in one of the chairs over there." 

I go and take a seat in one. 

Then he says "Okay what role will you be auditioning for?" 

I reply "The role of Carmilla Karnstein." 

"Okay then you may start."

After my audition I go to leave. He thanks me and I walk out. The next week I got a text from Spencer.

Spencer: Hello Natasha. I am texting you to inform you that you got the role of Carmilla Karnstein. I will need you to go to the same place we held the audition. There is one more thing I need you to do. Also congratulations on getting the role, well done.

Natasha: Thank you so much! When do you want me to go to the studio?

Spencer: You're welcome. If you don't have anything planned today does four pm work? If not we can always work something else out.

Natasha: Four works, I'll see you there!

Okay that leaves me 3 hours to get ready for whatever Spencer had planned for me. I start getting ready right away just in case it takes me three hours to get ready. When I finished getting ready it was around 2:30. So for the hour I have before I have to go I watch TV. I look at my phone and see it is around 3:30. As I walk into the building I notice a couple other girls in some small groups, others alone. Then I hear my name being called. I turn to see Spencer standing in a doorway with a clipboard in his hand. He motions for me to follow him and I do. We walk into a room that looks similar to the room I auditioned in with the chairs set up in the same fashion. I sit in the chair that's in the same spot as the chair I sat in for my audition. He then goes out of the room and I can here him call someone's name. When he returns he comes back with this woman. She has brown hair and brown eyes. She is wearing a plaid button up and some jeans that compliment her curves perfectly. She looks familiar... where do I know this girl from? Oh my god, she is the blonde Sharon was talking to, her "friend." She walks up to me and says "Hey, my name is Elise Bauman nice to meet you." It takes a minute for me to come back to reality and then I reply "oh uh... hi Elise my name is Natasha Negovanlis. It's nice to meet you as well." She then giggles a little and takes the seat next to me. We run through the lines together and then she walks out. 

Spencer goes out to get the next girl and I can't seem to get my mind off of Elise. We run through several auditions and then on the last one Spencer says to me 

"Alright Natasha that was the last one. Do you know who is going to be Laura?"

I think back to all of the people who auditioned but there is one person that sticks out the most, that hasn't left my mind since she walked into the room. She is going to be the one. I know it. 

"Yeah Spencer I do know. Elise Bauman is the best match for me out of them all." 

"Okay then Natasha lets go tell them the news."


Elise's POV:

Spencer walked out and everyone grew silent. After him the girl who went over lines with me walked out and stood next to him. God she is so hot. Oh my god, why am I thinking that about someone I just met? Wait... I think I know her from somewhere. Please don't let her be one of my drunk hook-ups. That's Sharon's friend she went to talk to the day of auditions. Holy shit. I'm brought back to reality by her starting to speak.

"Uh.. hello everyone! With Spencer's help I have made the decision of who is going to play the role of Laura Hollis. Before I tell you who got the role, I want to tell you all that you all did amazing. Even though you might not get this role, never give up. There will always be other opportunities. Don't let this stop your acting career. You all did amazing and I saw talent in each one of you. Okay now that I've said that you will all find out who got the role of Laura Hollis. Can I have a drum role please. Congratulations to... Elise Bauman!"

Oh. My. Gosh. I can't believe I got the role. I can't believe I get to work with Natasha Negovanlis. I just met her and I can tell that I am going to like her a lot. I am pulled out of my thoughts by Natasha walking towards me. I stand a little straighter and I see her laugh at this. She then stands in front of me and says "Congratulations Elise, you did amazing in your audition. I'm really looking forward to working with you." I smile and thank her. She then turns around and walks away. Hot damn.

Natasha's POV:

Okay so I can't believe this is happening. Within the past few hours I have found out that I will be playing the role of Carmilla Karnstein and I have chosen who will play the role of Laura Hollis. I can't wait to work with Elise. From the few short minutes I worked with her I've learned that she is extremely funny, very talented, and a plus is that she is extremely attractive. I feel kind of bad for having to tell all of the other girls no but Elise is the one who stuck out to me so I'm happy with my decision. The first thought that popped into my head when she walked through that door was "That's my Laura."
