The sound of the ticking clock was vibrating throughout the room; everyone was silent pens on paper writing their answers. I couldn't focus I was waiting for the call from my mom to tell me everything would be okay.
I don't wanna bruise your ears, or hurt you again
But I got back stabbed by a black cab when I needed a friend
But now I'm in town break it down thinking of making a new sound
Playing a different show every night in front of a new crowd
That's you now hello, ciao
My teacher looked up from his desk and cleared his throat "sorry sir, but it could be my mom with news about my brother" I said hurriedly before rushing out of the room.
Seems that life is great now
See me lose focus, as I sing to you loud
I can't, no I won't hush
I'll say the words that make you blush
I'm gonna sing this now
I looked down at my phone I didn't recognize the number the music played off the walls and down the halls.
See, I'm true my songs are where my heart is
I'm like glue I stick to other artists I'm not you, now that would be disastrous
Let me sing and do my thing
And move to greener pastures
See, I'm real, I do it all, it's all me
I'm not fake don't ever call me lazy
I answered my phone "hello?" I said cautiously
"hello, is this Kaylee Jamison?" a man asked
"uh, no its not" I said wondering why they were asking for her
"oh I'm sorry miss she must have wrote the wrong number down."
My head suddenly clicked into what he was getting on about
"oh, wait is this for the contest?" I asked slightly excited
"yes, it is" he said sounding confused; I shrieked
"yes, yes you have the right number I entered her in the contest for a birthday present!" I said almost all in one breath
"ah, I see well ms. You have just won a meet and greet for you and two friends!" he said in monotone
"wait, were all underage can we bring one more sort of as like a parent... You know for the law" I said trying to sound convincing
"well I see, I believe that can be arranged" he said shuffling papers in the back round.
"I will call you with more details tomorrow ms..." his voice trailed off not sure of what to call me
"Jackson" i said almost too quickly
