Keep Dreaming - Eurovision Song Contest 2018

1. Save Your Kisses For Me

Thursday, May 3rd 2018

Lukas Kazlauskas was casually watching a movie he didn't even understand as a way to calm down. He couldn't stop thinking about what was going to happen in a few days: first the Eurovision semi-final, then the final... And before all of that, the interviews, the press conferences, the mean comments on social media, the thumbs down on YouTube... This is going to kill me.

Lukas grabbed his phone for the fiftieth time of the day. He couldn't help checking the number of views he had on the music video of his song. Lithuania's song. It's not just me, this time. I have a huge responsibility! He frowned when he saw the last comments.

"why is it in english ??? lithuania selling themselves to gain views !!"

"bad song, not 12 points from Italy"

"he looks like a cheap Joe Jonas lmao, but 12 points from Bulgaria"

Lukas unconsciously touched his black hair. Do I really look like Joe Jonas ? Nice. He felt bitter while reading all the comments that said his song was bad. He had written it himself, and then his manager Tomas had helped him remove all the English mistakes. The result was good, in his opinion! His English level was pretty low, but Tomas had made everything better. It was the song of his life, the most important one. The one that would be heard by all Europe.

Suddenly, his phone vibrated.

Lukas sighed. So Tomas had decided to text him in English, now? I get it, you don't want to be ashamed of me during the press conferences so you're training me... He typed his answer as fast as possible.

Lukas immediately went to the Twitter account he checked the most: wiwibloggs. They always had everything he needed to know before anyone else. As expected, they were already sailing the drama ship.
