It was now a weekend, Jess was travelling to the nearby theatre so she could meet with the choreographer fo the musical and meet all the people for the cast. Jess pushed open the doors to the huge theatre, it was beautiful, the roof was high above and there were 3 higher levels which looked down to the stage.

People were walking around practising lines and getting props ready, Jess stood in the middle of the stage as some lights went on, she looked out to the empty seats of the theatres with a spark of inspiration in her eyes "Jess! Your here great" said a voice, Jess turned to the person calling her and saw Jackson (The glasses guy from before) running to her from out the stage.

Jess pulled a happy smiled on her face as she looked at him "Hey Jackson" she smiled, "Hey, I'd like you to meet Zac, Zac!" he called, from the stage walked a tall boy with canary yellow hair and orangish eyes. he had a bright smile on as he walked out from backstage.  He wore a white button-up shirt, ripped jeans, leather jacket and a pair of sunglasses hanging from his shirt. 

 "Whats up Jacko?" He smirked not noticing me from behind him.  

"Firstly I told you not to call me that" Jackson grumbled, Zac walked up to him, Zac was slightly taller than him, he was about the height of Aaron or Ian. "Secondly I'd like you to meet the girl who's playing Zoe" Jackson explained moving to the side to show me.

I slightly waved, I saw him blushed slightly before giving me a smile. "My names Zac," he said as he held his hand out to me with a bright smile on his cheeks, "My names Jess" she smiled with her eyes closed.

"Excuse me miss?" Asked a timid voice from behind me, I spun around and saw a girl, she had a head piece on as she held a notebook and pen, "Are Y-You A-aphmau?" she questioned shyly, "Yep that's me!" She exclaimed.

The girl awkwardly pushed the notebook out to Jess "Please sign my notebook! My best friend and I are huge fans of you" she gushed, she smiled sweetly at the girl and took the pen and notebook. She pressed the notebook against her thigh as she wrote a message to the girls.

She handed the book back to the girl who slightly squeals with joy before sprinting backstage. Jess let out a chuckle before looking back to Zac "What was that about?" Jackson questioned, "Oh! I'm kinda a big deal on youtube" Jess said timidly.

"Are you a youtuber? Tell me your youtube so I can subscribe!" Zac exclaimed he pulled out his phone and going to his youtube, "Aphmau" Jess smiled.

Zac stopped typing and looked at Jess with wide eyes, "Wait for Aphmau?!" He cried, "Yeah" she questioned, "I'm a huge fan" He gushed, He clasped his hands around hers and he bent down slightly to look at her with a closed eye smile.

Jess giggled slightly awkwardly before he let go, "Zac!" Called a voice, we looked over and saw the director who auditioned me at school, "We'd like you to do addition" he explained, "Oh! Cool" Zac smiled as the 3 judges sat at the front "Wish me luck" Zac smiled before everyone walk off the stage to be backstage or sat on the seats behind the judges.

The music started to play before he sung. (Play song)

[Verse 1:]

I've learned to slam on the brake

Before I even turn the key

Before I make the mistake

Before I lead with the worst of me

[Verse 2:]

Give them no reason to stare

No slipping up if you slip away

So I got nothing to share

No, I got nothing to say

[Pre-Chorus:]

Step out, step out of the sun

If you keep getting burned

Step out, step out of the sun

Because you've learned because you've learned

[Chorus:]

On the outside, always looking in

Will I ever be more than I've always been?

'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass

I'm waving through a window

I try to speak, but nobody can hear

So I wait around for an answer to appear

While I'm watching, watch, watching people pass

I'm waving through a window, oh

Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me?

[Verse 3:]

We start with stars in our eyes

We start believing that we belong

But every sun doesn't rise

And no one tells you where you went wrong

[Pre-Chorus:]

Step out, step out of the sun

If you keep getting burned

Step out, step out of the sun

Because you've learned because you've learned

[Chorus:]

On the outside, always looking in

Will I ever be more than I've always been?

'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass

Waving through a window

I try to speak, but nobody can hear

So I wait around for an answer to appear

While I'm watching, watch, watching people pass

Waving through a window, oh

Can anybody see, is anybody waving?

[Bridge:]

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around

Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around

Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around

Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?

When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around

Do you ever really crash, or even make a sound?

Did I even make a sound?

Did I even make a sound?

It's like I never made a sound

Will I ever make a sound?

[Chorus:]

On the outside, always looking in

Will I ever be more than I've always been?

'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass

Waving through a window

I try to speak, but nobody can hear

So I wait around for an answer to appear

While I'm watching, watch, watching people pass

Waving through a window, oh

Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me? (Ooh)

[Outro:]

Is anybody waving?

Waving, waving, whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh

Zac had an amazing voice, he was perfect and according to the judge's faces, he did really well. Zac bowed slightly before running to me backstage, "How did I do??" he questioned panic in his voice.

Jess stayed there mouth wide trying to find the words to say how amazing his voice was, "I knew it I was horrible!" he cried flopping onto the floor "No way!! You were amazing!!" she cried.

Zac cocked his head up with a smile "Realy?!" he exclaimed. I smile at him, soon we were chatting and having playful banter before the directors called Jess and Zac on stage to try and rehearse a song.

The song was one of the love songs and Jess was slightly nervous about it because she was doing it with Zac, a hot guy she had just met.

the music started and we went through the song with acting and everything. (Play song)

Jess:

I don't need you to sell me on reasons to want you

I don't need you to search for the proof that I should

You don't have to convince me

You don't have to be scared you're not enough

'Cause what we've got going is good

I don't need more reminders of all that's been broken

I don't need you to fix what I'd rather forget

Clear the slate and start over

Try to quiet the noises in your head

We can't compete with all that

So what if it's us

What if it's us

And only us

And what came before won't count anymore or matter

Can we try that?

What if it's you

And what if it's me

And what if that's all that we need it to be

And the rest of the world falls away

What do you say?

Zac: I never thought there'd be someone like you who would want me

Jess: Well...

Zac:

So I give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go

But if you really see me

If you like me for me and nothing else

Well, that's all that I've wanted for longer that you could possibly know

So it can be us

It can be us

And only us

And what came before won't count anymore or matter

We can try that

Jess and Zac: It's not so impossible

Zac: Nobody else but the two of us here

Jess and Zac: 'Cause you're saying it's possible

Jess: We can just watch the whole world disappear

Jess and Zac: 'Til you're the only one I still know how to see

Zac: It's just you and me

Jess:

It'll be us

It'll be us

And only us

And what came before won't count anymore

Jess and Zac:

We can try that

You and me

That's all that we need it to be

And the rest of the world falls away

And the rest of the world falls away

The world falls away

The world falls away

And it's only us

By the end Jess and zac were holding hands and really close, Jess and Zac both blushed at the position they got themselves into and separate. "That was amazing! Perfect! You two are perfect for the roles!" The director praised. Jess and Zac slightly blushed as they looked at each other with a smile. the howl time easily when Jess first sang Zac had been looking at her with amazement and shock.

As Jess went backstage to get a drink Zac came up to her. "You were amazing! I didn't know anyone could sing like that" he explained with a smile.

Jess smiled shyly "I only really started singing in front of people last year" Jess Gushed as she put the cap back on her water bottle. "Well, I think you are one of the best girl singers I've met" he smiled.

Suddenly from on stage, the directors called "Everyone out! We've finished the rehearsal! Come back next week and we can start with the dancing!" He called. As Jess slung her purple bag over her shoulder and started to walked out the theatre Zac caught up with her.

"Jess!" he called, Jess turned to him and smiled "what's us Zac?" she questioned, Zac blushed "I was wondering if you want to hang out tomorrow seeming how it's a weekend" he asked, Jess smirked "Like a date?" she questioned, "I mean yes" Zac laughed, "I'd love to" Jess smiled.

They gave each other their number before going in separated directs to their homes.
