The Audition, Girl Meets World fanfic

I know what you all are thinking. What is Maya Hart doing at an audition? First, I want to put it out there that this was all Riley's idea. Our school is putting on Peter Pan as the school play. They were going to be holding auditions at 3pm. Riley, being Riley decided that we should all audition. Farkle and Lucas auditioned first and then Riley. I'm last. It's pointless anyway. I'll probably get a small role.

  "Maya Hart", said Mrs Daniel at her desk in the auditorium. As soon as she called my name, I stepped up to the stage. I wore a simple white shirt with ripped jeans and my cheetah print coat.
 " What part are you auditioning for, Ms. Hart?" said Mrs Daniel with a soft expression on her face.
" Excuse me" I said, perplexed. I didn't know we had to come reading for a part, I though it was just an audition.
" Do you want to be Wendy, Tinkerbell, Tiger Lily?" I thought about the choices carefully. Wendy is someone who is sweet and kind. Not me, that's Riley. That role is for her. Tinkerbell is sassy and fierce. While, Tiger Lily is head of her tribe.
" Tiger Lily", I said, smiling. She nodded and wrote something down the piece of paper in front of her. " You may begin, Ms. Hart"

      I took a look at my surroundings, closed my eyes, took a deep breath and sang

 On the day that you were born the angels got together.
And decided to create a dream come true.
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold,
And star-light in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls in town follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you

I finished the song looking up with a sad look. I looked up to see what Mrs Daniel thought of it. "Um, Mrs Daniels, I'm done" I said. When I looked at her, she was clapping and crying. " Bravo, Ms. Hart, that was wonderful", she said beaming. " You are perfect for the role." I smiled. " Great, so when do i get to wear face paint?".

 Now, Mrs. Daniels looked confused. " What are you talking about, Ms. Hart? " You said I was perfect for the role of Tiger Lily". Then, she was laughing. I swear theatre teachers are weird, This is why I don't get involved in school activities. " Oh no, my dear girl you're going to be Wendy in the play, not Tiger Lily". I stopped breathing when I heard Wendy. I stepped down from the stairs and went towards her. " I'm sorry, I thought I heard you say that I'm going to play Wendy".  She put her hand on my shoulder. " That is correct, Ms. Hart, you will be our Wendy in the play".
" No offense, Mrs Daniels, but I think you're making a mistake", I said. She looked at me the way Riley looks at me when she wants to say something important. " How so, Ms. Hart? Wendy is character who is in middle of wanting to remain a child and yet she is also forced to be grown up.
I think that you can relate the most to this, right, Ms, Hart"

I thought about what she said. She was right. Since my dad left me and my mom, I had been a little kid when it happened but I had to be forced to be grown up for my mom.
"Ok, I'll do it", I said.
" Wonderful, I will see you and Mr. Friar on Monday for rehearsals", Mrs Daniels said. wait, what? why would he? Oh no.
I knew the answer anyway but I had to be sure. " what is Lucas's part"? Maybe I'm overthinking it, he could be a lost boy.
" he will be playing Peter Pan, said Mrs Daniels. " You two will be our Peter Pan and Wendy."
I left the auditorium after that. I'm going to be Wendy and Lucas is going to be Peter Pan. Wendy is in love with Peter Pan, I think Peter likes her too. Riley isn't going to like this. I have act like I'm in love with Lucas. But he's Riley's crush. This is going to be difficult. Normally, I would text Riley first, but I had to go to the source. I texted Lucas.
 So, apparently, I'm wendy in the play.
That's great, I knew you would be her.
what are u talking about? You wanted me to be Wendy?
yea, I'm playing Peter and you're wendy. 
This doesn't seem weird to you?
No, we're friends. Plus,  I think you make a great wendy
How come you didn't want Riley to be Wendy?
riley' great don't get me wrong, she just doesn't have that spark that Wendy has 
she's smiley riley, she's a ray of sunshine
I know, but wendy's more than that she's loyal, compassionate, creative, beautiful.
are we still talking about wendy?
Um, maybe.
what?
i gotta go, see ya at rehearsals, wendy. he ended the text with a heart emoji
Ok, Lucas Friar can be a Huckleberry. But, that was just weird. He was obviously talking about Wendy right? Not me, besides he likes Riley. He likes her. he has to like her.



Current Update: Books/movies/writing

It's been a while since i did one of these current updates. Better late than never. First is the books that I am currently reading. I am currently reading 2 books.
Will Grayson, Will Grayson by John Green and David Levithan
These Broken Stars by Amie Kaufman and Meagan Spooner
I am loving Will Grayson, Will Grayson, The characters are relatable and i adore Tiny Cooper, he reminds me of one of my best friends. I've talked about it with him. We have already decided that if they ever make a movie of it. He would play Tiny Cooper. I would play Jane. Josh Hutcherson would play Will Grayson 1 and Charlie Puth would play Will Grayson 2. i think you can tell we thought a lot about this.

 As for tv i'm watching Robot Boy, Gilmore Girls( I'm on season 6), Miraculous Ladybug, Girl Meets World, i'm going to watch the 100 season 3 because i just finished watching the series on Netflix. It's amazing. Bellarke shipper for life. That's about it so far. I would highly recommend Miraculous Ladybug. The main girl and her partner solves crimes as Lady Bug and Cat Noir but they don't know each other real identities and they prefer to keep it that way. By day, they are Marinette and Adrien. Marinette has a crush on Adrien. Adrien/Cat Noir is in love with Ladybug not knowing that Marinette is Ladybug. As Ladybug and Cat Noir, they are partners but she doesn't take him seriously because he always flirts with her. They are the same people. At this point, adrien and marinette are comfortable around each other. 

For movies, i loved Star Wars: The Force Awakens and Jurassic World. Another thing that i want to mention is writing. I have a lot of ideas for stories but have never attempted to write one. My first is a going to be an AU crossover of 17 again/Bandslam. Yes the 17 again with Zac Efron and Bandslam is the one with Vanessa Hudgens.
I've been thinking of writing  one where Mike is actually Neil's son. Sa5m transfers to his school for senior year. Maggie and Mike dated junior year but broke up. Maggie still wants him back but he's interested in Sa5m. Sa5m is trying to get over her ex Will and has not sang in her band since Charlotte graduated.  They meet in Human Studies, Mark and Sa5m are partners. Sa5m is reluctant to be Mark's partner. On other hand, Mark is fascinated by Sa5m.

Five-Seven Five Review


Five-Seven-Five (The Boy with Words, #1)
This book was an interesting science fiction fantasy book. The main character White was a well developed character. She was curious, determined, and courageous. The world building could have been developed more, i think in my opinion. The main plot is that White wants to find out more about the outside world because her community is very strict. One of the reasons of is pieces of messages that her cousin brings back with him. The whole thing with the messages drew me in to the story until it's revealed where they actually come from. Another character is Kes who is a person that White meets while she is trying to explore outside. i felt conflicted with Kes. There were times where he would act interested in White and then the next they're friends. The date scene is where i was confused because I though that he was interested in White because of the way he was acting throughout the book with her. He always wants to see her, writing poems about her, he's excited when she's there. Of course all those signs would make White think he was interested in her. Through it all, the ending left on a cliffhanger and i can't wait to read it when it comes out. I rated this book 4 stars.

The Tragedy of Loving Jamie Clarke


The Tragedy of Loving Jamie Clarke

I thought this book was good. The characters were easy to relate. The relationship was sweet. Althought, i do feel there were some parts where the pacing seemed fast. One minute she's showing him around town, then he's asking her to be his girlfriend after one date. It didn't feel like insta-love. It just felt like intense attraction from the beginning. Overall, i loved the christmas and valentine moments between the couple. that was sweet. The jealousy part actually doesn't happen until the last 30 pages and then the ending. The ending was unexpected. I was surprised but at the same time it felt right for April to do something for herself and for Jamie. I would put this as If I Stay meets The Fault In Our Stars.

A Raven's Touch Review

 


     A Raven's Touch Review
A Raven's Touch by Linda Bloodworth
I loved this book. It had everything, magic, friendship, romance. I liked all the characters. Justice was great, she was loyal, brave, courageous, and witty. The friendship between her and Moira was beautiful. Its seen from the beginning how they really are best friends. The side characters of Tom and Mr. Joy was really good. I liked the humor they book had. Also, the magic system was incredible. Each character is a different magical being. Justice is an angel. Moira is a witch. Tom and Mr.Joy are elves. Darien is a vampire. Dragons are also in it. The romance was great because it wasn't the main focus, instead they each help other throughout the book. The ending was a cliffhanger with them entering Hell. I enjoyed this book a lot and I can't wait for there to be a sequel. 5 stars.
