Chapter 2

(Three months later) May 4, 2009

Excitement boiled up inside Mitchie Torres as she neared the studio where Connect Three were having the auditions. Imagine, if I actually made it, it'd be a total dream come true! Mitchie sighed with joy, and the thought of even catching the slightest glimpse of her favourite band made her even more energetic. All the girls in her class liked Connect Three because they're hot, not because of their music. But it was different for Mitchie, although she did think they were cute, it was their music that made them Mitchie's favourite band.

All her excitement reminded Mitchie of her mother last week when Mitchie had asked if she was allowed to audition. Layla Torres's face had brightened up as soon as Mitchie had asked. Her mother loved to hear Mitchie sing, but she used to be too shy to sing in front of crowds. So when Mitchie asked permission to audition, her mother was probably more excited than Mitchie was.

As Mitchie round the corner, she groaned at the huge line up of girls outside of the Lullaby's Studio. The line ended so far from the studio that you could barely see it. Mitchie sighed with frustration then got into the line, and began to wait her turn.

* * *

It was three hours later when there were still four people in front of Mitchie. But at least they were lined up in the studio, and not outside, where the sky was becoming darker. She'd come at five, and now because of the huge line up, it was eight. Although it was late, and Mitchie was getting hungry, her mom was still supporting her all the way. Than a super-visor came out of the door leading to the room where Connect Three were having the audition, and walked toward us. "Thank you for your patience, but now, Connect Three have asked to have the rest of you to all go inside," he super-visor said.

Mitchie and the other girls followed her through the door. As soon as the other girl caught sight of Connect Three they squealed with excitement. But Mitchie stayed calm, even though her heart was racing, probably even faster than the speed of light. It was almost Mitchie's time to shine, but...what if they didn't like her voice? Her mother had always said she had a beautiful voice, but mothers always say that, you just couldn't trust them with a question like that.

Although Mitchie's hands were already beginning to sweat, she got even more nervous when she heard the first of the four girls sing. Her name was Jane Lyon and she had a great voice. Jane chose to sing Play My Music by Connect Three and I could tell that she was doing a great job. The three boys were all smiling and nodding their heads to the music. Mitchie considered trying to sneak out and just go home, but she knew her mom would be so disappointed.

So Mitchie took a deep breath and decided to stick with this, even if they wouldn't like her voice. Connect Three said they liked Jane and told her to wait in the other room, across the door we just entered. But the next girl didn't have such luck, "you have a nice voice, but maybe a little more training," Jason Hill said, one of the band members. She dipped her head in disappointment, and walked out of the room, the third to last girl went up.

She had long flowing, blond hair, and was a beautiful girl, but her voice was other-wise. Mitchie didn't want to be mean, but the girl's singing reminded Mitchie of a dying cow, but Mitchie felt guilty even thinking about something so mean. But it seemed as if Connect Three agreed with her, because Nate winced, and Shane struggled to be polite to the girl. "Uhm, interesting, but just not what we're looking for," Shane stuttered. The girl's pale skin burned bright red, "you people don't know what the hell you're talking about," she growled at Connect Three. Shane raised an eye brow at her, clearly annoyed. "Please, have a good day," he said, still polite but sharply. The girl flipped her hair once, and then stomped off and out of the door, slamming it behind her. Mitchie could see that the young girl in front of her was very nervous, and wouldn't budge when she was called up. "I'm sorry, I have to go," she muttered and then ran out the door, before Mitchie could even blink. "Bad case of stage fright, I guess," Mitchie heard Nate Sanders say. Shane Gray nodded in agreement, then said, "Hello, yes you can go up now," to me. Mitchie nodded then stood about ten feet away from them.

"What will you sing for us?" asked Shane. Mitchie took a small breath, "Gotta Find You," she answered; it was one of her favourite songs by Connect Three. Shane nodded for me to continue, she began to panics, scared she might forget the lyrics, but, without thinking about it, the words flew out of her lips.

Every time I think I'm closer to the heart
Of what it means to know just who I am
I think I've finally found a better place to start
But no one ever seems to understand

Mitchie's voice rang out, she impressed herself, and she even saw a hint of a smiled on Shane Gray's face. They let Mitchie finish the song, which the rarely do because it would take too long. Mitchie smiled proudly after she finished singing, and stood tall. All three of the band members were smiling, relief swept over Mitchie, she felt that she did well. "Great job, let's go to the other room, where you'll find the other girls who auditions and did a good job," Shane said. Connect Three led Mitchie into the other room; Mitchie was surprised at the few remaining girls. There were hundreds of girls to begin with, now there were only about six, including her, remaining. Mitchie still had a silly smile on when she settled down next to Jane, who smiled at Mitchie as well.

"All of you did wonderful. But, unfortunately, we don't have the time to have one of those shows where they have a six week competition. So, we decided to just keep two out of the six of you, and have those two to sing for us and our manager then we'll decide," explained Shane. The girls around Mitchie nodded their heads in understanding. All the members of Connect Three had pieces of paper where they'd written down notes on, now they were comparing the notes with each other.

"Alright, I'm sorry, but, we would only like to keep Jane Lyon, and," Shane paused, and looked down at his sheet of paper again. Mitchie held her breath while a huge smiled broke out from Jane's face. "And Mitchie Torres," Shane said, Mitchie smiled too, a bigger smile than Jane's. The other girls, though, were less excited, some of them sighed, some of turned bright red with anger, just like the other girl who was here and didn't make it.

Connect Three waited until the girls filed out before turning to Mitchie and Jane, with nice grins. "Okay, Felix, could you come out," called Nate, a door at the back of the room opened, and in walked a young man with dirty blond hair and sky coloured eyes. "Hello, girls, I suggest you sing your hearts out because I'm very critical," he said, smiling but seriously. "Alright, Jane, how about you go first," Jason said, settling down on one of the four chairs set up at the front of the room. Jane and Mitchie smiled at each other, and then she stood up and cleared her throat.

Mitchie seriously did not feel good at how nice Jane's voice was. Usually, she would compliment someone with Jane's voice, now she just wished that she would just lose her voice. Mitchie tried to think positively, but Jane's lovely voice ringing out just made her feel hopeless.

Jane smiled and said thank you after she was finished singing. Shane gestured for Mitchie to go up; Jane smiled supportively, Mitchie smiled back. Felix pointed at me for me to start, trying to ignore her racing heart, Mitchie opened her mouth. This time though, she didn't say a Connect Three song, she sang This Is Me, by Demi Lovato.

As the last words rang out, Mitchie smiled at the band, and then retreated back to her seat, next to Jane. "You did a great job, Mitchie," Jane said to Mitchie as she settled back down on her seat. "Thank you, you did a wonderful job as well," Mitchie replied. Moments later, Felix called them both over. The girls smiled at each other before they walked toward Felix. "Both of you girls are delightful singers, but we can only have one more member. This has been a hard decision to make, but we have decided," Felix said. He turned to Shane, motioning for Shane to give the results. "Alright, so, we've thought carefully, and our next lead singer is, drum roll please!" Shane said with a laugh. Jason started banging on a small table beside him, Jane and Mitchie smiled. "Okay, Jason stop," Shane said, still smiling, Jason stopped hitting the table, and looked at the girls. "Connect Threes' new lead singer is Mitchie Torres!" Shane practically shouted, or what that Mitchie yelling?

"Oh my god, really?!" Mitchie asked, jumping up and down. "Yes, do you accept?" asked Felix, although he obviously knew the answer. "Well, yeah, I mean, of course, I mean yes, yes I accept," stuttered Mitchie, still too excited to speak clearly. "Great!" all three members of Connect Three said together, Shane smiled at Mitchie, and she smiled back. Wow, in one amazing day, Mitchie got to meet and join her favourite band of all times, just amazing.
