A/N
This is kind of like x factor or the voice, but not exactly. Nico wants to compete in a singing competition, but what happens when he gets stuck with a sunny, smiley song writer as his partner on the show?

NPOV

I walked into the building, unbelieving of the fact I had actually been picked to audition. I was nervous to say the least, but I shook out my nerves and went to sign in. Maybe an hour later I was called in, and a few short minutes went by before the light lit up telling me to go in.

"Hi," I waved as I stood on the X and looked out at the 3 judges.
"Hello, what's your name?" Taylor Swift asked me.
"Nico Di Angelo."
"Well Nico what are you gonna sing for us today?" She asked with a kind smile.
"I'm gonna sing Jar of Heart by Christina Perri," I give a small smile, my nerves showing.
"Alright then, start when your ready."

I nodded and then nodded towards the music man, he started the song and I closed my eyes and breathed before beginning. My voice shook a little as I began, but by the time i reached the chorus I was sure of myself. I belt out the words and then on the last line I draw back in, almost whispering the last words. The judges were staring, obviously not expecting that from a young, skrawny "emo" like me.

"Well, it's a yes from me," Taylor broke the silence.
"A yes from me as well," Sofia Carson spoke up, smiling at me.
Ed Sheeran smiled, "And a yes from me, that's three yeses. Nico your moving on to partner performances!"

I smiled and started thanking them, though the confused looks on their faces let me know I was speaking in Italian. After a moment of calming down I was able to thank them ans leave the stage, my smile genuine and bright.

WPOV

I took back stage after watching a young Italian boy jam out to Jar of Hearts, it'll ba hard to live up to that. I shift from foot to foot, nervous about everything. When the light comes on i walk onto the stage.

"Hey!" I smile, though me figiting hands give away my nerves.
"Hello, who might you be?" Sofia is the one to ask me, a smile wide on her lips as well.
"Will Solace."
"And what will you be singing today?"
"I'm singing an original song, I've been working on it for about a month now."
"Wow, alright start whenever your ready."

I nod to the music man and shake out my nerves as the intro starts.

Close me eyes, and i see you
Standing so near to me
I reach out, can't touch you
Your just an allusive dream

And i walk and walk for a thousand miles,
But you never see it though
And i try and try a thousand times,
But you just keep standing resolute!

Why am i not enough for you?
When you say you want someone like me
Why is this just a joke to you?
When you say you still feel things for me!

And i cry and i cry, all my tears they fall for you
Not because i miss you, but because you'll never miss me to

And i walk and walk for a thousand miles,
But you never see it though
And i try and try a thousand times,
But you just keep standing resolute!

Why is this world not enough for you?
That you have to leave my side
Why can't you believe when i said I'd miss you?
Cause now your gone from my life

And i cry and i cry, all my tears they fall for you
Not because i miss you, but because you'll never miss me to

Not because i miss you, but because you'll never miss me to

I smiled sheepishly as they all sat wide eyed, i guess they weren't expecting that.
"Yes for me!" Ed said smiling.
"Of course I have to give you a yes!" Taylor said.
"And I'll make it three yeses, your moving on!" Sophia stated as I started shouting and thanking them.

I soon walked out and headed home so i could start to pack. This is just the beginning.

A/N
Thats it for this one guys, should i do a part 2?

Jk, guys im not done yet, i have to keep going its only at 753 words! Besides you can't call that a ONESHOT!

NPOV

I open the letter with my plane ticket and the name of my team as well as my partner and the other members of the team.

Nico Di Angelo,
We are excited to announce that you will be on team Sheeran! Your partner's name is Will Solace, please check your email for a video of his audition. We ask that you view this before bording your plane.

Furthermore, we are excited to announce that your team will be visited by one of three celebrities listed in your email, please vote on which you think would best help you and your partner continue to grow.

Yours truly,
The Riff Off officials

I quickly open up the email and click on the video. I was suprised to see that they paired me up with such a smiley happy person, but hes voice and song were haunting. Maybe he's not as happy as he seems...
I was crying by the end of the song, and had to sit back for a moment before i could place my vote.
It was for Elizabeth Gillies.

WPOV

I open the letter and quickly read over it before opening the email. I smiled at the boy they paired me with, the Italian I had watched before performing. I rewatched his audition anyway, his voice was filled with hate and distaste as he sang. I guess his heart has been broken before. I then flip over and place my vote.
It was for Elizabeth Gillies.

3rd POV

Nico walked into the house to see a few people already there. A boy with dark hair and blue-green eyes was talking to a guy with blonde hair and bright blue eyes. A girl with blonde hair and grey eyes was chatting with a girl with dark hair, dark skin, and dark eyes. A third pair was made up of a short spanish elf and a shorter, younger boy with excited eyes.

Someone taps Nico's shoulder and he spins around to see Will smiling and waving,
"You're the last one here, it's great to meet you!"
"Uh, y-ya... great to meet you to."
Nico crosses his arms and rubs the back of his leg with his foot, shit he's to cute!

Ed walks in soon after and we all fall silent as he tells us the rules of the house and how the competition will go about narrowing each coach down to one pair. Nico is shifting from foot to foot in anticipation, a scary smile gracing, err, appearing on his face. The other competerors shifting away, except for Will... he just keep smiling, dispite the look of pure willing to commit homucide on Nico's face.

Once Ed finishes, the pairs are allowed to head to their rooms and discuss their next performance. Nico and Will entered to see a bunch of equiptment in one corner and all the stuff off a normal room covering the rest. Nico claimed the right bed and flopped on it before sitting up, Will sitting down a little slower on his.

"So, what where you thinking?" Nico asked, raising an eyebrow.
Will thought for a moment, then smiled,
"Maybe an original piece? Or we could mix a few songs. I doubt the other teams would try, i watched most of the auditions."
"Alright, how about we try and mix a few genres? Like we each pick 2 songs we like, then we can work around and fit them like puzzel pieces."
"That sounds perfect! And it'll be a real show stopper for sure!"
Will was smiling like an idiot, Nico was straight faced though his eyes danced with excitement. Maybe these two could really work together.
