It's official. Two more chapters, and this story is finito. And trust me, in the next two chapters, there will be Channy to the eleventh power!(I don't know what that means….). So enjoy, because this is the third-last chapter!
Dedication! T-Kiwi02, channygirl33, kfodom. Thank y'all for reviewing!
I sat there, frozen. I was shaking. Even after the breaths, and the hugs… oh god…. I couldn't do this.
Sonny shot me a look of encouragement, while Tawni waved her arms with a panicked look on her face.
"Um… Zora?" Grady chuckled nervously. "We're ready."
The audience leaned forward in a quizzically matter.
"O..okay." I stuttered. I squinted at the piano sheet. B, F, D, A, G, C. My head was spinning. Sonny's song was a picnic compared to this. Oh God. Here I go.
I played the beginning chords of the song grudgingly. "Here I am once again, feeling lost, but now and then, I breath it in to let it go."
Okay. The song was going good. I felt more nervous than I did before. Okay. F, D, E, G, A.
'And you don't know where you are now, or what it would come to if only somebody could hear." I continued. The tempo was picking up, and my heartbeats matched the rhythm of the drums.
"When you figure out how, you get lost in the moment and disappear…"
Oh. God. The high note.
"You don't have to be afraid to put your dream in action. You're never gonna fade, you'll be the main attraction."
Wait.
"Not a fantasy, just remember me when it turns out right…"
Was the audience standing? Dancing?
"Cause you know that if you live in your imagination, tomorrow you'll be everybody's fascination…"
As soon as I sung that chord, I stood up and got lost in the music. All of my worries literally slipped out of my body. I sung my heart out, even borrowed some of Tawni's dance moves. As soon as the song ended, I twirled and posed.
"Woo-Hoo!"
I blinked out of my predicament and saw the audience on their feet. Sonny was jumping(with her signature smile) and even Tawni was applauding. They ran out to the stage and gave me a group hug(with Nico and Grady).
Grady hopped out of our group hug. "That's all for now, ladies and gentlemen. Vote on the So Random! Site for your favourite singer. Knee is next. Good Day, everybody!" he exclaimed and the American Idol, America's got Talent and America's next top model theme song began playing at the same time.
We clamoured backstage. "Kids, you were amazing!" He exclaimed. Then he wrapped me in a hug and whispered in my ear; "Especially you, kid."
I smiled.
Sonny squeezed me. "You weren't great Zora. You were amazing!"
"Let's go to DQ!" exclaimed Tawni. "It's on me."
"Right after the curtain call kids." warned Marshal.
''Wouldn't bet on it." I beamed.
