(Play the song at the begging of her performance <3 I hope u enjoy it)

"Excuse me Miss", Rob tried to shake the sleeping girl up, "Please wake up, you're next".
Mirella jumped from the sudden touch of the young man and felt puzzled. She was looking around herself trying to find the difference between the current situation being a dream or reality. It's hard to tell what's real, what's fake. After her eyes met Rob, she took a moment to scan his face and remember that he was a part of the band. Her eyes have adapted to the contacts and her vision was clear. He looked at her like a puppy, even his eyes had a sort of worry carrying in them. He released his grip from her upper arm and she immediately stood up causing him to take a step back.
"Oh my god I'm so so sorry!", Mirella said and he gave her a sincere smile as a response like saying 'don't worry about it' without a word leaving his mouth. Rob had a grey shirt on, where the sleeves were cut off, revealing his defined arms whilst still sitting loose on his upper body. It had some messy lettering written on it and he wore dark straight-fit pants, which were ripped and there was a chain attached to the jeans to give off sort of an edgy vibe. She looked down at him taking in how good he looked but when she lifted her eyes to meet his, she saw the most beautiful light blue eyes she's ever seen. Mirella had blue eyes herself but his were mesmerising. His messy mullet completed the whole look perfectly and she didn't even realise that during the time she was staring at him, that he had lifted his arm showing towards the stage. Just when he nodded towards his left stretched out arm, that's when she apologised again and grabbed her stuff to follow his movement.
"Wait, I'll help you with that,"Rob said offering his help, which Mirella accepted. "Do you need some water? You might need some after you just slept, your voice might be a little raspy.", he added. "That would be very nice, thank you so much.", Mirella replied still unsure what was going on right now. She was looking around and wow she really was the last one left. There was a feeling of relief but it made her even more anxious since they would most likely remember the first and last contestant most. Yet walking to the front, it's a beautiful place to be at right now.
"Here's your water, take it to the stage with you and take your time to prepare." Robert said after turning to her. They arrived at the front sooner than Mirella expected but loosing herself in her thoughts and feelings really made her snap out of it again. We're not dreaming anymore. Rob looked down at her and she felt her cheeks heat up by his kindness and care. He walked to the front of the stage and slid her stuff up on it and turned back to her. This whole time she didn't even dare to look at the others there but when she tuned there was absolutely no one. It was just Rob and her in the entire hall. He walked up to the desk and grabbed a bottle for himself and started chugging it. Following his movements she noticed a variety of rings and his fingers and some bracelets.
"The others went out, they really thought you just left but I heard you snoring so I managed to find you.", he said to Mirella smirking to tease her.
"Ehm, where are they now tho. Don't we need all of them to judge my appearance and performance?", she said not falling for his teasing.
"They're gonna be back soon I texted them as soon as I found you.", he replied, " I guess you can already go up and do whatever you need to do."
And with that Mirella walked up the stairs on the left of the stage and started to plug in her guitar and set the mic down to her height. The light at the center of the stage was so bright that she covered her face. During her preparations the other three members walked in and made her way to their seats. She still wasn't able to tell who was who due to the bright lighting. It got quiet. She was yet up there trying to adjust to the white piercing light which was burning her eyes.
"I wanna see your beautiful face", someone from the front desk said which she couldn't identify.
"Uhm, I'm really sorry my eyes can't seem to adjust to this bright light." Mirella declared.
"It's fine, just close them. It'll make you more comfortable."Rob said. She just nodded and took her hand down. She closed her eyes and started playing.
