Underneath The Spotlight [Rusame]

Chapter 8

As they stepped on the stage, the lights on them from above beating on to there bodies and the crowd with there cheering to see who will come out the victor with the slight mix of excitement and anxiety.

America loved it all.

He enjoy everyone looking at him from a stage might seem narcissistic but he didn't seem that way for him no, He didn't want to seem appealing for the public eye no he wanted them to enjoy him for his music what he sings and what he plays. He was going to get what he wants and do whatever it takes to get to the top even if it means lies and pain he'll do it all

"What are we going to do?" Ukraine said in a slight panic not wanting to look dumb in front of loads of people.

"We're going to play come as you are" America said with a slight smile. "Oh great... " Ukraine said as she when to the drums, Canada when to the bass, Russia the electric guitar and of course America as the singer.

[Come as you are by Nirvana]

As they all finished the song everyone of them stood there in silence until everyone one started to cheer and clap.

This made everyone but America sighed in relief, he smiled, He never felt so alive in that moment.

"Thank you all!" America said as they all walked off the stage for the host to introduce the remaining people for the contest. America was still smiling as they walked off the stairs.

"What the big smile for? We don't know if we one yet" Ukraine said. "I know but the whole experience it's self was enough for me! Imagine doing for millions just to see you!
And not just for some stupid contest no! But something more" America said as he was hopping around and people just looked at him weirdly.

"Hey America" Russia said as he felt a small smile form on his lips from seeing America so happy. "Yeah?" America said as they walked past the crowd of people.

"You should smile more" Russia said as they finally got away from the crowd of people to take a breather. America said nothing and just looked away feeling his cheeks getting a bit warm.

Russia laughed at America embarrassment and America just glared at him "sure whatever. What an asshole" America said mumbling the last part. "What was that?" Russia said. "Nothing dumbass" America said as Ukraine and Canada giggled.

"Guys we should pay attention for when they say the winners" Russia said. "Yeah... True" Canada as America just rolled his eyes. "No need to listen to the lame singing! You know who is going to win!" America said grinning and pointing to himself.

"You never know. They seem pretty good" Ukraine said as she looked over the singers that where currently on stage.

America suddenly felt a sharp pain in his hand. America eyes widen to realize it was probably his stitches, they open didn't it?

America looked down to his hand seeing blood seeping through the bandages, He mental cursed.

"What seems to be bothering you?" Canada said as he put his hand on America's shoulder and his face fill of concern. "Nothing.... It's not important right now it can wait" America said crossing his arms so he can't see his hand in the dim light which made it hurts even worst.

"Let's see what they'll say" America said not really wanting to answer anymore questions.

A few hours passed and they are finally going to pronounce the winner and America was extremely excited with the full pain in his hand as well.

The host when one the stage with a white envelope to make it more suspenseful, for the people who are probably at this point kinda grew impatient.

"Hello everyone one in this lovely night" The host said.

"After these wonderful performances we got to choose one winner and that winner is"
