Demi Has Dynamite

Chapter Two

Demi’s POV

I’m getting sick of all these awful auditions I’m yet to find someone who just like makes something in my brain light up and say they are the winner. The guy on stage currently is terrible once we send him of stage there is a little delay of the next contestant walking on I someone tells us in the ear piece the guy before knocked over the next contestant just as he says that a young girl walks on stage I like her style she looks like a little rebel yet the way she hold herself I can tell she is shy and lacks confidence. She gets to the X and looks up a little “Hi Sweetheart what’s your Name” L. A ask her she looks so nervous I want to run up and hug her telling her it is ok I think she is digging her nails into her palms I used to do that if I couldn’t cut or I was scared I hope she isn’t hurting herself. “My names Blaire sir” her voice is very well she lacks confidence it is kind of cute it makes me want to run up to her and protect her from the world but something tells me the world has already been bad to her but then again I could be reading too far into it I take in her appearance again as the shuffles nervously on her feet she has brown curly hair that fall around her face as if shielding her I can’t quiet tell her eye color but they look like there lacking life yet protected she is rather skinny and her skin is pale like an English rose as people would say “And how old are you” Simon ask the next question “I’m 14 sir” she says a little louder but with a little bit more confidence by the way she holds herself once again she is shy yet highly guarded I wonder what she is hiding I wonder her story “What grade are you in at school then Blaire” Simon ask again she looks at her feet before looking up “Can you tell us the story behind that and you don’t have to call me Sir Blaire even though your respect is refreshing” he says why she should be at school maybe she is home schooled. That is a good point Simon has made it is rare that someone this young she has great manners I see her eyes fill with tears but she quickly puts up her mask again “I ummm well I had a really bad time at school with Bullies and it go too much so I dropped out and started working last year.” Oh god that poor girl it makes it harder right now for me to embrace her and reassure her, why would anyone want to bully her actually why does anyone bully anyone, something tells me there is more to the story I want to ask but I know I won’t get an answer if I asked “I’m sorry to hear that, so who are you here with today Blaire?” Simon ask again I guess he is trying to get a feel for her and see what her support system is like “Umm I’m here by myself” she says a little, how on earth a 14 year old comes here by herself maybe I under estimated her as a shy guarded 14 year old. “Ok well what are you going to sing for us today?” he ask “I’ll be singing Just a dream by Carrie Underwood sir” She says Simon nods and it goes silent for a few seconds then she starts singing the first note that light goes off in my head she is brilliant yet she doesn’t know it, her voice is powerful and so full of emotion she connects with the song so well I close my eyes and listen to the song. I feel tears roll down my face it’s like she is pushing the sadness of the song onto the audience, it is silent and stays silent for a few seconds until everyone snaps out of there daze everyone is on their feet clapping and cheering for this young girl in front of us, I look over and se im not the only one crying Kelly is and to my surprise even Simon is crying wow no one has ever managed to do that. I finally meet Blaire’s eye for a few seconds before she looked down at her feet blushing and going back to the shy little girl. I can’t help it I need to hug her I run up on stage whilst she isn’t paying attention and wrap her in a hug she tenses up so I pull back and look into her eyes they say so much yet so little they are a dull grey color I don’t think it is a natural color I think once they may have been a bright color but have dulled with sadness that she seems to have that you can only see every now and again in her eyes “I’m sorry honey I just I don’t know had to hug you, you look like you needed one” I say she doesn’t argue just shrugs her shoulders so I pull her in for another hug she hugs back a little but I can tell she is not comfortable with it I have never met anyone who is uncomfortable with been hugged. The sound starts to go down so I release her from the hug. “Honey that was beyond incredible are you sure your 14?” Kelly ask her he nods and her cheeks go red “the power, the emotion in your voice, someone you age shouldn’t be able to do that girl. I’m still shaking from your performance” she continues on causing Blaire’s cheeks to become more read. “We all may as well go home, because she has won this already. I don’t know how you did it sweetheart but you just made Mr Simon Cowell cry, that is the first time since I have known him that he has cried, you are incredibly talented, and you could win this show.” LA says this causes her to smile a big smile aww how cute she has dimples. “Thankyou sir” she says quietly into the mike and plays with a bit of thread from oh her shirt it fascinates me how shy she is. “you have no idea how talented you are, you are something beyond special and LA is right you made me cry, the emotion you put in that song you seem to be able make others around you feel the emotions as well that is not an easy thing to achieve, I’ve only just met you but I feel proud that you came here, I can’t wait to see what else you can do, I also love your attitude not many kids your age are so humble and well mannered.” Simon says he actually sounds proud she seems to have made an impact on all of us “I have Goosebumps all over, you are gah I don’t even know how to explain this you are this cute shy little girl walking on stage then all the sudden you sing and your voice is so powerful and perfect and the emotion you sing with, you shouldn’t be able to do that at you age at least not the way you do, you made us all cry well except LA but I saw him tear up. You are a very special person Blaire and I think you will go very far in this competition and very far in life.” I say I watch her smile get bigger but then looks at her feet I think she is a little embarrassed “Don’t be embarrassed Blaire, now we have to vote, it’s a yes from me, you’re going far sweetheart” Simon says giving her the thumbs up ok what the heck was that he seems so happy or something. “It’s a yes from me girl” Kelly says really loud she flinch a little what was that all about I wonder “It’s also a yes from me” LA says “I can’t wait to see you grow it is a big yes from me” I says again she smiles and says thankyou a few times walking of the crowd cheering again. “I love that girl she is incredible, she is so talented, shy, she has no idea how talented she is, she is different” Simon says why we wait for the next performance he is beaming it is bizarre. “I really want to be her mentor” I say truthfully I want to help her I don’t know what she needs help with but I want to help her.
