A Little LA Magic
Chapter 9- Big Time FREAK OUT!
AN: Soo heeeey :) Hows it going? Thanks to Anonymous Skrtle, Kendall Schmidt is Mine and my anonymous reviewer RawrGirl. Yes! I did that from memory! That's how much I love you guys! Anyway, sorry for the long wait, I had writers block- I knew what the chapter was, but I didn't know what to do. BUT I wrote a one shot called 'Never Be Replaced' so check that out! Let's hopethis chappie's not too much of a fail. Yeaaahhh... On with the story!
BTW if you didn't know, I own nothing except Kat.
Oh yeah, most of the time I'm gonna call my OC Kat.
Jo's PoV
So, my audition was in the afternoon and I was FREAKING OUT! Only negative thoughts would come to my head, such as what if I mess up a line? What if I fall over and totally humiliate myself? What if they just hate me?
"Jo!"
"Huh?" I said, completely unaware of my surroundings. I happened to be sitting at the table, with very appetising pancakes in front of me.
"You just zoned out," explained Katie, "and I'm pretty sure it's about this afternoon."
"Chill Jo, it's an audition. And you're an amazing actress, you'll nail it," reassured Camille. I smiled.
"Don't mean to interrupt this moment of encouragement, but I spent ages on the pancakes which, as I've been told, are to die for." We all took a bite and wow, they were amazing!
"Oh god, these are good Kat. Where did you learnt to make these?"
"I'd tell you, but then I'd have to kill you," responded Kat nonchalantly. Swiftly, the plates were cleared of pancakes. After clearing everything away, we sat on the couch. I caught a glimpse of the two scripts on the coffee table in front of us and sighed deeply.
"You need help to rehearse?" Camille was a very willing actress, but sometimes she could be a little over the top. But it's better to rehearse with someone else doing the other lines.
"I could use help with the best friend scene. But I need a boy for the other scene."
"Just ask Kendall," said Kat, her voice showing annoyance, "or Logan. They proved they're freaking good at acting yesterday!"
"Oh, get over it Kat!" We looked around to find the source of the voice. Kat went and checked the door but there was no-one.
"Kat, you Face-Timed us." She pulled out her phone and smiled sheepishly.
"Oopsies… But I'm still mad at you guys." Kat ended the call and put her phone back in her pocket.
"Today I don't feel like doin' anything" Kat sighed and pulled out her phone.
"If this is the boys then I'll- hey Kelly. Gustavo wants me to come to the studio now? Oh, okay. See ya in 10. Bye." She put her phone back in her pocket, grabbed her keys and purse, then headed towards the door.
"Gotta go guys, Gustavo wants me to show Griffin how good I am. But I'll be back for your audition even if I need to sneak out. Bye guys!" With that she left.
"So wanna go get Kendall and practice?"
"Sure."
•••••••••••••••••
Waiting is the worst thing ever! I'm usually patient but things like this really got on my nerves! Unable to stay still, I got up and started pacing back and forth. It actually calmed me down but annoyed the rest.
"Stop stressing out," said Kat, "you'll be fine!" I sighed and sat down.
"Jo," I sat up straight- finally my turn! "Timmons." In frustration, I threw my head back and hit the wall behind me. I looked around, only a few more people we left. One by one, they all went in for their audition, then when they left, they'd have an anxious expression, wondering if they had got the part. The waiting room was pretty much empty, with only us left.
"And finally, Jo Taylor." I stood up, dusted myself off and walked towards the nice lady. Behind me came calls of good luck. With a smile, I closed the door.
"Hi there, I'm Gabriela, the writer slash director of the show," said the lady who called for me, "this is Jett Stetson who plays Drake, Rachel's love interest and Megan Lane who plays your best friend. So you're going to do both scenes with them. Just give it your best and you'll be fine." I nodded and prepared for the first scene.
Jo: I can't do this Drake, I have a boyfriend back home.
Jett: One that seems to care a lot about you I see. How many times a day does he call you?
Jo: That's none of your business.
Jett: The point is, I really like you Rachel. Ever since I first laid my eyes on you, I've never felt the same.
Jo: It's not that simple, trust me.
Jett: Don't complicate things, just look in my eyes.
*Both lean in to kiss, then Jo runs away.*
"Well done! Let's try the next scene!"
Megan: So tell me, what happened?
Jo: Me and Drake almost kissed….
Megan: WHAT! You have a boyfriend Rach!
Jo: I know. He says he likes me a lot, and I'm so confused.
*Jo puts her head in her hands and Megan comforts her by putting her arm around her shoulders*
Megan: Just follow your heart, and remember, I'll support whatever decision you take.
We finished the scene and Gabriela told me that one of them would call me up at 5:30. I opened the door to find my friends and we left.
•••••••••••••••••
I stared intensely at the phone, waiting for it to ring.
"Ring, ring, ring," I muttered under my breath continuously.
"Wow, Jo," Carlos said breaking the silence, "this must be so stressful for you. You're just one call away from your big break and you don't even know how good you were against the others."
"CARLOS!" Everyone shouted at him in unison.
"Carlos is right. I don't know how well I've done and this phone call could make or break my Hollywood career and I don't mind. But right now, I just want the phone to RING!" Magically the phone started to ring.
"PICK UP THE PHONE!" Everyone shouted at me. I picked it up and when to the other side of the apartment.
"Mhhm, okay. Thank you very much." I ended the call and walked over to the eager faces. A disappointed look covered my face as I sat down.
"So, what happened? Did you get the part?"
"I…. GOT THE PART!" All of a sudden, I was surrounded by loud squeals, congratulations and deathly hugs.
"This calls for a celebration!"
So we ended up going to Fun Burger- I heard they serve the funnest burgers in town. What a great way to end a big time freak out.
AN: Yup, that sucked. Originally, I was going to have a Jonas LA sort of thing but then I thought it'd be a little tooooooooo early for Jendall. They've only been going out for a day. And the Carlos thing near the end was TOTALLY inspired by BTBU.
Challenge Question 3:
In the show, one of the Jennifers has been played by two people- which one was it, blonde, brunette or curly haired Jennifer?
Just saying, you need to have answered all the questions to qualify. The prize is an OC.
Who's looking forward to Big Time Wedding? I am! I think accidently getting married is a totally Jamesy thing to do! :)
Please review,
Love MiiMyselfandTime x
