The band

Brielle's POV

Me and Jack walked inside and sit on the couch that was in the room. We went over the songs that they chose to play. I knew all of them by heart so it didn't take that long.

Jack explained the whole singing situation with Aidan and Kait so they understand. They all wanted to hear me sing though and I'm nervous. I haven't sang in a while. And not in front of people who weren't family. So you can imagine how nervous I was.

They suggested that we all do vocal warmups together so I feel more comfortable. As we're doing them I feel less nervous.

It was time to show them my singing voice. I'm a shy girl ok so I was shy.

"Can we just sing a song together?" I ask them hoping they won't be annoyed.
"Of course if that's what's gonna make you feel comfortable." Aidan says smiling. Omg his smile is something else. His dimple is so cute.

They started singing the chorus of Señorita. Wow their voices are amazing in person. Their truly the best.

Then my part started coming up. Oh shit...

Locked in the hotel
There's just some things that never change
You say we're just friends but friends don't know that way you taste
La-la-la
Cause you know it's been coming don't you let me fall
Oooh

That's all I sing. I'm shy ok.

I look up at them and they looked surprised. I look at Jack then Kait then Aidan. I start getting nervous at what their gonna say.

Jack looked at them then back at me. He starts clapping.

"Woa Brielle that was awesome!!" He says hugging me. I just smile. At least he likes it.

"Damn Brielle that was amazing." Aidan says smiling at me.
"Wow I've never heard anyone sing like that! You have a gift Brielle." Kait says smiling.

I feel so relieved right now. That was the first time I sang in front of people that weren't family. I'm so happy they liked it.

They went out of the room to discuss something. I hope they like my singing. I mean I know they said they liked it but I hope they were telling the truth. I've never done that before. Singing in front of people of course.

Aidan's POV

Wow I am amazed at Brielle's singing voice. I've never heard anything like it before.

I called the group outside to discuss what songs she'll be singing.

"She could sing 'I see Red'." Kait said.
"Are you sure that's one of your biggest songs." I say a little concerned. It's not one of the easiest songs to sing.
"Yeah I'm sure. She has a very good voice I think she can pull it off." She says smiling.
"Ok."

"Guys if she does good tonight can she join the band? She can take Tyler's place." Jack says with a hopeful face.
"I know we just met her but I seen how talented she is. Not just singing but she can play almost any instrument. She's really one of a kind." I hesitate.
"I don't know we'll discuss that later after the concert ok." I say

We walk back inside.

Brielle's POV

I'm standing by the mirror looking at myself. 'Wow I'm really about to sing in front of a crowd with my favorite band.' I say in my head.

"Ok so here's what's gonna happen." Kait says walking inside the room.
"You'll be singing 'I see red' after I sing Give em hell. The rest of the songs you'll be singing the chorus. We don't want to make you sing too much since this is your first time singing in front of a crowd."
"Ok." Is all I say smiling.

We're standing on the side of the stage waiting to go up. I'm a little nervous but not as nervous as I was before. Jack told me I was gonna have a great time and I believe him. These guys are fun.

There was a bigger crowd tonight but I get why. These guys are the best well known bands in the world.

"Everyone welcome ****" (can't expose the name just yet.)

We walked on stage and people started cheering. Wow the crowd was bigger than I expected.

"Hey everyone Tyler couldn't be here tonight so we have Brielle filling in for him tonight." Kait explained. I just smiled as they all cheered.

I'm kinda sad this is a one time thing but I'm glad it's happening.

First song was Jack's song Teenagers. I was playing the drums for this one while he was playing the guitar. I started counting down with the sticks and he started singing. They all started cheering. This made me less nervous. I was hardly nervous now. I just hope I don't mess up.

They're gonna clean up your looks with all the lies in the books to make a citizen out of you
Because they sleep with a gun and keep and eye on you son so they can watch all the things you do
Because the drugs never work their gonna give you a smirk cause  they've got methods of keeping you clean

3 songs later it's Kait's song now. She sings Give 'em hell.

Better hit back never walk away cause you just can't give in
Gotta come strong give em that pain
Oh don't you know they'll try to break you try to take your pride
No they won't break nothing stare right back devil in your eyes
Oh you just give em hell
- - -

Once she's done singing everyone cheers. I'm just smiling looking around then I see my boss. He's clapping giving me a thumbs up. He's happy.

I realize it's my turn to sing. I get nervous again. I try to calm down my breathing but seeing all these people is overwhelming for me. I've never sang in front of a big crowd before especially like this. What if I mess up? What if I play the wrong chord? What if they hate my singing? I'm snapped out of my thoughts when I feel someone tap on my shoulder. It's Aidan.

"Hey Brielle don't worry your gonna be great. They'll love you. If we do then they will." Hearing him say that made me feel better like y'all got love for me?

"Ok thanks Aidan." I say smiling. Damn his eyes pretty. He grabs my hand and takes me to where Kait was standing. Apparently for them if your singing a song you go to the front.

I hear Jack hitting his sticks together counting down. Oh shit.
