I had never been so stressed before! Sitting on the red coach with my family and my friends, I was playing with my fingers and my rings. I chose to sing When I'm Gone by Anna Kendricks, and of course, I choose difficulty by doing the cup thing. I worked so hard on it with my sister, I knew it by heart, without looking, watching something else at the mean time, but I couldn't avoid it.. I was nervous. And my nerves increased the moment a guy with a microphone called after me. That was it. The BIG moment. I was about to sing in front of Mika for God's sake!

I entered the stage, and my nerves were growing step by step. I was completely panicking! What if I forget the lyrics? What if I let the cup fall? Oh goooood! I can't do this! What was I thinking? I can't! I'll be ridiculous, and everybody will laugh at time on Monday when I'll go back to school! And while I was stressing, this fu*king camera was filming all the scene! Brilliant.. I had no other choice than go to stage and do my business. After all, I only needded ONE seat to turn around. Just one; It's noting after all! It's hhuge... Ok breathe.. You can do it.. You trained a lot, this isn't different from the times at home... You just have hundreds of people staring at you.. It's nothing.. At this moment, 5 images flash at my mind. 5 guys, walkig on stage, who certainly were as nervous as I am. But they had fun on this X-Factor stage, and it changed their lives forever. I knew mine couldn't change that much, but I wanted to do it. I've been waiting for it for years and now I freak out? No way! The show must go on!

First step full of fears, the second was full of confidance. I knew that my family was watching, and I wanted to make them proud. And I was ready to do it right now! Let's go!

I waved at the crown which was clapping, and my stomach twisted when I spotted the 4 seats. I mean their back, directly turned to me. Oh gooood.... Ok! Bring your shits together and do it! With my cup in my hands, I sat on the floor, and put the cup in front of me. The room went quiet immediatly, and I started. 2 claps in my hands, 3 on the top of the cup, and I was ready to rock it!

I got my ticket for the long way round
Two bottles of whiskey for the way
And I sure would like some sweet company
And I'm leaving tomorrow
what you say
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
I got my ticket for the long way round
The one with the prettiest of views
It's got mountains, it's got rivers
Its got sights to give you shivers
But it sure would be prettier with you
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my hair
You're gonna miss me everywhere
Oh, you're sure gonna miss me when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me by my walk
You're gonna miss me by my talk
Oh, you're gonna miss me when I'm goneee.

I made the last note last a little longer, then I looked up. They were standin, applauding, the 4 of them looking at me. I didi it! I couldn't believe it! They liked what they heard! It was so unreal.. How 4 famous singers could like my voice?! The crowd was a bit crazy, calling my name and clapping. That could be my life. But for now, I had to choose my mentor, enven though I had already made my choice.

- I loved what I heard, and I would like to work with you on your voice, we would get well along togerther, started Florent Pagny.

I nodded, and thanked him, while Garou started to speak.

- You've got a strong voice and I'm sure that if I work with you, we could improve it! I'd be really happy to work with you!

- I adored what I heard, and you make me think of me when I was younger, and I would adore to work with you. Come with me!

I thanked both of them, and tried to get my breath back. Then it was Mika's turn to speak.

- You are what I like to call a pure diamond, and we need to work on it to give it the perfect shape. And I think.. no I know that I would be the perfect person for that. But you need to come in my team to prove me that I'm right!

I could believe it! Mika, the one I wanted to be trained by, said that I wanted ME in HIS team! Yaaay! If I wasn't standing in front of him, and a big crowd, I would've done the joy dance!

- I'd love to prove you that you're right..

I tried to keep my vioce even, even though it was hard! And even more when he jumped and clapped, and come to me to hug me tight. Oh. My. God. I hugged him back, then I thanked him discreetly. After waving goodbye to the crowd and the 3 other judges, I went backstage, to be interviewed by a journalist. I didn't know what to say, I still was shocked. I mumbled few thing that I dreamt I was saying when I trained in front of the mirror. All I was thinking about was the fact that I went through! I was going to the next step of the competition, the battles! That was epic! For now, I entered the room where my family was, and I was welcomed by a giant group hug, and confratulated by my mum, who was crying. I wish I could do it again!
