CraZ LuV

Last chappie....

As our last week on the Sing Off went by, I got more nervous than ever but I knew the guys were behind me, backing me up (literally) through the entire thing. During our practices, our entire group would burst into fits of laughter just out of nervousness (causing our neighbors to complain.) Finally, Sunday night came. The last night that I would be in that hotel. The last night I would have to dodge Scott’s awful mistletoe which we’d forgotten to take down. The last night I could just walk next door to see Scott. I would’ve tossed and turned all that night, but I forced myself to sleep.

        The next day, the guys and I met down at the hotel lobby. We’d packed our things and checked out. We decided to practice at the Sing Off stage until the show. We did “So What” exactly 17 times that day. John kept count. Finally, the show started and Nick Lachey invited both groups onstage to do their songs. The Infectorz went first with “We Will Rock You” b Queen. They were obviously celebrating their victory before they knew they’d won. We went up and sang like crazy. Finally, Austin hit the last note. Then came the moment of truth.

        “The votes are in.” Nick Lachey announced “And this season’s Sing Off winner is…”

        Those next few seconds felt like an eternity. Our eyes darted across the room, from Nick to each other.

        “CraZ LuV!!! Congratulations! You are our champions!!”

        My heart leaped and we went crazy. We had won! Then, something even better happened. Scott grabbed my waist and kissed me right then and there. My first kiss. That day was nothing short of perfect. I was well on my way. I wasn’t Lauren the dork anymore. I was Lulu, lead singer of CraZ LuV and the girlfriend of the cutest guy in the world. I was who I was meant to be. Me.
