I stand there awkwardly as the business men were starring at me." Alright, guys, don't freak her out." Chan says, they snap out of it. I see Robert stand up and lead us out if the room." Wait here, we'll get to the audition in a minute." I nod. I feel someone grab my shoulder, I turn around grab there arm, twist it around, and pin it between there shoulder blades. I hear a someone choke a scream of pain, OH MY GOD IT WAS CHANDLER!!!!" I am so sorry! I didn't know it was you!" I let go, he grabs his arm in pain." That's twice today you've hurt me." He groans. I gently take his arm and look at it. It looks fine, it's not broken." You'll be okay, you didn't scream when I touched it." When I let go the arm looks bruised where I was holding it. I look at my hands, there's make up on them. I look up at Chandler, then at his arm, then my hands. Everything's normal." I'm going insane, my coma dream feels like it's coming true." He gives me a confused look." What dream?" I gulp... (a/n: if you haven't read the first book this won't make since) I explain everything, from beginning to end, from Hana being abusive, to my ex kidnapping me, and when I woke up." Your not going crazy." He tells me." How?" He grabs my hands," your hands are covered in make up for your costume, and I put a few fake bruises on me. You just didn't notice them." I sigh," Thanks, Chan, I thought I was going insane." I look up, and my mistakes kick in, I look into his eyes. My blue eyes meeting his bright blue's." I've always liked you, Chandler, but I've loved you since the day we met." I realize I just said that out loud. I drop his hands and back away." I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said anything. I understand if you don't like me, or love me, back. I wouldn't understand if anybody likes me." I slowly back up into the wall. I end up in a corner. Out of the Conor of my eye I see the sign for the bathroom. I dart for it. I've heard Chandler calling my name since I started backing up, I've ignored it. I lock the door and make sure no one is in here. It's clear. I can't seem to find my blade on me, so I just start scratching my wrists with the stubs I call my nails. They slowly start bleeding, good. I know Chandler's banging on the door, I ignore it. I hear a new voice now, I recognize it as Emily." Chandler, go talk to Norman or something. I can handle it." I hear Chan sigh, but I think he walked away. I grab some paper towels and cover my wrists." Sweetie, please open the door." I whimper a no out." Please, we can talk this out." When he said he liked me more than Hana, he obviously meant it in a friendly way." Fine." I tell her. I through away the paper towels and unlock the door. Emily walks in," Aren't you off the show?" I ask," Yeah, but I'm visiting them. Not why I'm here, are you okay? What was that back there?" Oh God she saw." I'm fine, I just made a mistake." She doesn't seem to be buying it." That wasn't a mistake, Chandler obviously likes you back. I saw him holding your hands, I saw him starring in your eyes, he chased after you when you ran, he was beating at the door trying to break it down, and he was obviously crying when he left. That boy loves you, you made no mistake." I jump off the counter I was on and hug her. When I let go, my wrists are still bleeding. I gasp." Ummm, I think I got some blood on you..." I whisper. She gasps at the sight of my wrists, I look down and I do too. They are pouring blood. Emily grabs her purse and pulls out gauze, medical wrap, and medical tape. She cleans me up, then changed her shirt." I usually bring extra clothes, plus I've been in the habit of bringing medical supplies with me since I started working on the show." I nod, she heads into a stall and changes her shirt." Let's go find him." I suggest," I'm Trista." she nods. We walk around the building, we can't find him." Hey, Emily, who's with you?" I hear a British accent ask." Hey, Andrew, this is Trista." He nods," Hello, Trista." I smile," Hey, Andrew." Emily looks back to Andy." Have you seen Chandler?" He nods," Break room." She smiles her thanks as we run off. When we get in the break room Chan's on the couch crying." Chandler?" I whisper, he snaps his head in my direction. I slowly walk over to him, he holds his arms out. I run over and hug him. We hold each other crying, I don't know why we're crying." I like you so much, Tia, and not as a friend. I want you to be my girlfriend." We here the door open," Can we start the audition or is this a bad time?" I hear Robert ask." Nows good." I say. I stand up, he hands me a script.

Character mode: Cailey Greene's POV

I'm walking around the city, I found my home over run with the monsters and flames what seems to be two years ago. I haven't seen my daddy, my sisters, or my mama in what I'm sure are four years. This all started when I was nine. I see hospital with a fire truck. Is that my sister? I walk over, IT'S MAGGIE!" Maggie!" I yell, oops..." Cailey...?" She whispers, she turns an looks at me. I nod," It's me... Where's daddy? What about mama? Beth?" She looks even more broken with every word." Th-there...gone..." I don't do anything, I do give a slight nod. I've gone with out them for four years now, I can go the rest of my life. I climb over the fence and with Maggie.

End audition.

" Wonderful!" He says clapping." You have the part." He tells me. I smile. I have the part... I'm moving to Atlanta...
