Chapter 35
Daveigh's Point of View
I stood there in awe of what they were saying. They were telling me… That my singing… Was amazing…
And, these were the people that told me I couldn't sing when I was, what, 10 years old, and crushed my dreams in the first place? No, they really couldn't be… Was I now suddenly out of the blue a good singer? Were they telling the truth? They kept reiterating themselves, so I guessed it to actually be true. It was very hard for me to believe though. But, I tried my best to.
Just then, a man with dark sunglasses and semi-formal attire came up to us. He looked at the band.
"I'm Jon Lind from Hollywood Records. What a talented group you are! I came looking for fresh new faces and I think I might've found what I'm looking for." He said.
The whole band got so excited and I was so happy for them.
Then, of course…
There was a 'but'.
"Unfortunately, since your group wasn't fully intact tonight, I'm not allowed to sign you. However, I think that once you've grown a little more and once I can judge your full band, well… You better bet I'll be keeping my out for you all."
"Thanks, Rydel…" Rocky said, accusingly.
"Rocky." Riker hushed him.
"On a brighter side, I was most impressed with this young lady's talent. And, since she's not part of the band, I thought it no harm in asking you to join our record label."
I looked around, and then realized he was staring straight at me.
"I… I- uh, me!?" I managed to let escape my mouth.
He chortled. "Yes, yes… Are you interested?"
I looked at everyone. They motioned spastically for me to say yes…
"Uh, y-yes!" I said.
"Good! Now, I'd love to hear a demo of that song you sang tonight… Uh, was it "Never"?"
My heart stopped.
Rydel stood there, stunned. And, so did I.
The boys looked at me disapprovingly. A second a go they were all supporting me, and now they demanded something different.
What am I supposed to do?
Jon noticed my hesitation. "Is there a problem with that?"
Uh…
"Well, you see, that's… Um, that's Rydel's song. And, she sings it an awful lot better than me. If that's the only song you want me to sing, then I can't say yes…" I looked over at her, reassuringly. Why would she think I would steal her song? I held my breath waiting for a reply.
"I respect that, very much." I exhaled, deeply. "Do you write your own songs?" He asked.
"W-well, I… I've written a few, yes…" No, I haven't, but I want to get signed!
"Drop a demo of one of your original songs by my studio by Monday afternoon. If I like it, we have a deal."
I smiled widely.
He handed me his card and started to walk away, but then turned around and said, "I think you'll be a very big hit… You're the most talented young lady I've come upon in a while. And, as for you R5, I expect great things from you, as well. I don't want to be disappointed!" Jon smiled and walked away to his entourage.
Rydel started to scream. "EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!" She squealed, hugging me tightly as we jumped up and down together.
"Daveigh…?" Riker asked, slowly.
Rydel and I stopped jumping and the boys stopped talking.
"Y-… You don't write songs, do you…?"
I looked down sadly.
"No…"
"And, when is the demo due, exactly…?" He spoke knowingly.
"… Monday," I sighed.
Today was Saturday.
OH NO! This isn't good! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! FEELS!
Okay, anyway, hey guys! Here's Chapter 35 as promised, but sorry, it's a tad bit late by a few hours... I deeply apologize. I had FUN writing this though. I did a little researching on Hollywood Records and Jon is a real agent in the record company! That was a pretty cool element, I thought...
