Business Is Hard

Bekah POV

"So today you are going to meet the girls and do some practice with them and get to know them better." My new manager Abigail said walking briskly beside me.
My brain was still trying to wrap around the idea that I was going to be in little mix. That I Bekah Edwards from the middle of nowhere America was going to be a part of the biggest british girl band. I was so lost in my thoughts that I had tuned Abigail out a bit.
"Bekah, Bekah." Abigail said pulling me out of my thoughts. "Were here just give me a second to explain the situation to the girls and then you can come meet them."
Wait they didn't know I was going to be part of Little Mix? Can someone say awkward.
"Okay." I said cheerfully.
Abigail goes into the studio and I hear her talking to the girls. She peeks her head out the door and motions for me. Taking a deep breath I push through the doors and see Perrie, Leigh-Anne, Jesy and Jade just staring at me.
"Hi I'm Bekah." I say trying to break the silence.
"I'm Perrie." Perrie says coming and giving me a hug.
"And welcome to little mix!" She says throwing her arms in the air and striking a pose.
Leigh-Anne just rolls her eyes behind her and turns to Abigail.
"So were going to have to redistribute singing parts?" she asks.
Abigail just nods her head.
"Well I'll leave you girls to it." she says and leaves the studio.
"Well come on we need to practice." Leigh-Anne says turning towards the studio.
I follow the girls into the studio. I look around and marvel at the studio.
"Are you going to practice or are you going to sit there and stare." Leigh-Anne says.
I snap out of my thoughts and feel my cheeks start to blush.
"Sorry. So what song are we going to practice?"
"Well we need to figure out where your voice fits and figure out the parts and then we can practice." Jade says.
"Okay." I say.
"So sing something?" Jesy urges.
"Right now? Oh gosh I don't know what to sing. Ummmmm......okay I got it."
I go over to the dash and find the right song on the device. I start the song and walk over to the mic. I bob my head to the music and start to sing.
"Young girl, don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall
Young girl, it's all right
Your tears will dry, you'll soon be free to fly

When you're safe inside your room you tend to dream
Of a place where nothing's harder than it seems
No one ever wants or bothers to explain
Of the heartache life can bring and what it means

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl, don't hide
You'll never change if you just run away
Young girl, just hold tight
And soon you're gonna see your brighter day

Now in a world where innocence is quickly claimed
It's so hard to stand your ground when you're so afraid
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold
When you're lost outside look inside to your soul

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Yeah...
Life is a journey
It can take you anywhere you choose to go
As long as you're learning
You'll find all you'll ever need to know

You'll make it
You'll make it
Just don't go forsaking yourself
No one can stop you
You know that I'm talking to you

When there's no one else
Look inside yourself
Like your oldest friend
Just trust the voice within
Then you'll find the strength
That will guide your way
If you will learn to begin
To trust the voice within

Young girl don't cry
I'll be right here when your world starts to fall....."
I finish singing and look at the girls. They look at me with a bit of shock and a bit of respect.
"Your voice is really good." Jade comments.
"Thanks." I say my cheeks turning a bit pink.
"Well we were going to practice Wings today are you okay with leaving it as is and not having a solo for this song?" Perrie asks.
I nod my head as long as I got a solo in Turn your face I would be happy. We start up the track and practiced for the next couple of hours. Around lunchtime Abigail comes in.
"Well girls its time for lunch. I've given you the afternoon off for band bonding. Maybe you guys can get Bekah acquainted with London she just moved here from America. See you later girls." Abigail says then leaves.
I follow the girls out the doors and into the crisp London air. Well let the interrogation begin.
