Movie exec Angela was right - no one has done that kind of thing with song rights at the time aside from American Idol 'cause Glee doesn't exist yet. Anyways, let's go back to the real deal here.

AUDITIONS

*.*- BELLA'S POV -*.*

After almost two months of writing the script and brainstorming and whatnot, we finally get to the auditions part.

I chose 'Mary's Song (Oh My My My)'.

Some asked me why, of all the songs, that's the one I picked.

My answer?

Because I want that song.

What? Sue me.

Good thing this happened during summer 'cause I can focus more on this project.

Well, I really have to or else they're just gonna spend tons of money for shit.

"Okay, Bella," Uncle Marcus starts as he sits beside me. He's the director, and I'm like his protégé. "There will be tons of girls and guys auditioning for the main role. The casting director, Kim, will need you to observe who delivers the lines according to how you wanted them to be. Advise them, alright?"

I nod in return.

"Hi, I'm Kim. I'll be your casting director," a dark-haired woman, who looks to be in her late-twenties, introduces herself. She extends her hand. "You must be the screenwriter, Bella Swan?"

I send her a coy smile and shake her hand. "Yes, I am. When are we going to start?"

She sits beside me. "Right now, actually."

And the auditions go on. We've listed some of the names of the guys who can play for the role. Some were young actors, some as first time auditioners.

"You're Tyler, am I right?" Kim asks the redhead standing in front of us. We've both decided that we're gonna keep more of the Southern auditioners' names since the song is country.

"Yes, ma'am," he replies, a tinge of nervousness in his voice.

"You see, Tyler, we have preferences for our character. We've created a 'look' for him, do you get me?"

He nods a bit furiously.

"Are you open to dying your hair blond?"

"Of course," he drawls. "I was born blond."

"Oh, okay then," she replies. "We'll just call you with the results."

She quickly turns to me as he exits. "I think he's perfect. What about you?"

"I don't know. There's something missing."

She laughs. "Oh, that's okay. We still have a few more. Next!"

And then enters the bane of my existence.


What do you think of the auditions? And who is she talking about in the end sentence? ;)
