~Clara's P.O.V~

We walked out on stage. Screams, screams and more screams. This was as worse as the boys' concert. We sat in our seats and Simon took the mic. "What a nice start to a new season!! I want you to welcome a brand new judge, Clara Lee!!" Everyone clapped and whistled. He handed me the mic. What do I say?! "It's nice to be here!! Who else is excited for what we have in store today?" I asked. Cheering comenced.

Tonns of people came and auditioned, there were some really bad ones, and some really good ones. You could consider me as the 'nice' judge. The last auditionee of the day came out. "Hello. What's your name?" I asked. "Caiden." He smiled. "What will you be singing today?" "Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls." He started singing. I was blow away. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyOqIKGbYkg)

And I don't want the world to see me
'Cause I don't think that they'd understand
When everything's made to be broken
I just want you to know who I am

Um. These word sound a little weird. Ohh I remember, this song is about stalking!! Wow. Weird. But Caiden is an amazing singer. I whispered to Demi "How far do you recon he's going to go?" She smiled. "He could win this thing." To true. He finished his song, everyone stood up and clapped. Even all us judges. "Wow, dude you are really good!" I said as the crowd calmed down. "Your voice is amazing!!" Demi said. "I can tell your going to go far in this compitition." LA said, Simon agreed. "It's a huge, massuve yes from me!" I said. "Yes!!" Demi and LA said together. "Congrats you've got 4 yes's. See you in boot camp!" Simon said. Caiden walked off stage to greet some friends.

Auditions went really well. We met some really awesome people and some really weird people.(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7WdTmX9O_6Y) But travelling is so fun!! When we were in Texas Demi and I went shopping but were mobbed by fans. Finally after weeks of travel we stopped for boot camp. The next two days should be really fun. I got changed (http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=85648025) "Hey Demi." I said as I left my dressing room. "Hey! What catigory do you think you'll get?" She asked. I've never though of that before. "I don't know. But I think I'd like to have the girls." There were some amazing girls here. "I want the groups. I recon LA will get the over 25's." She said as we walked to our seats. We greeted Simon, LA and the crew. "Ok, so this is what were going to do. We have nearly 150 people for you to choose between. So they'll go through some challenges. Like dancing ect."

The next two days went really fast. We saw some people dance and there was lots of singing. Finally it came down to who's in and who's out. "So, who do we choose?" I asked LA. "Well we have to put him through." Demi said pointing to one of the really good guy's. "And her" I said. We couldn't decide between to girls. "Let's do it fairly, rock, paper, sissors?" I asked. LA rolled his eyes. "How 'bout we just bring them back in?" "Ok!" They came back in and did a duet. The best was obvious. When we decide and finished up we brought them back in. "Thank you so much for auditioning, if you don't make it through, don't cry please, you'll just make me cry!!" I said. Some people laughed. We called out the girls, then the boys, and then the over 25's and groups. People cryed so Demi and I went out and told them not to worry, to try again next year. It was a wrap for the day.

Over the next day LA, Simon, Demi and I called each other alot. Finally we got the call we were waiting for. "Clara, we would like you to come down to the studio to meet your contestants." Yay!! Demi and I drove down together, since I was staying with her. We walked in, I waited outside a door while the others left. "3, 2,1 go!!" The crew said. I walked inside. I was greeted by 12 boys hugging me. 'I'm mentoring the boys' I though to myself. "Clara I'm so glad your our mentor!!" Someone said to me. I giggled as they all hugged each other. "So who have we here?" I asked. They all introduced them selfs. "So let me get this straight we have Liam, Caiden, Josh, Ethan, Aaron, Dacrey, Ian, Kellin, Ronan, Jack, Dawson and Joel?" I said pointing to then as I said their name's. They nodded. "Well nice to meet you." I smiled. We spent 30 minutes talking to each other. "Ok, I have to go now, but i'll see you soon." I said leaving. When I got back to the hotel Demi was already there. "So what did you get?! I asked walking in. "The girls!!" She praticlly screamed. "Ahh!! I got the boys!!" We jumped up and down with each other.

When it came to the judges homes we had to get someone to have a celebrity guest with us. I don't even have a house! I can't ask the Perrie to be a guest because she's gone somewhere. "Omg Clara!! What's up girlfriend?" Louis shouted through the phone when I called him. "I want to ask you a favour." "Sure what is it?" He asked. "Do you want to help me at the judges homes?" I heard him scream on the other end. "Of course I would!!" Yes! "See ya soon!" And he hung up.

Then next morning there was a knock on Demi's front door. It was Louis "What are you doing here? You know you don't have to be here until wednesday?" I asked him. He looked at me. "Do you really think I'd miss an opertunity to see you?" "I don't know?" I said. "You've been gone for 2 months nd we miss you so much!" He hugged me. We sat on the couch. "So what have you been doing?" He asked me. "Shopping, hanging out with Demi and the boy's. How about you?" "Concerts, concerts and more concerts." I laughed. Lucky they had a break for a week. We hung out alot, when Wednesday came I was exited. Even though we had to chosse 4 out of the 12. They all sung their songs, which were pretty good. It was a hard choice but Louis helped. "Caiden, congrats your through to the live shows!!" He nearly cried. We did the same for Kellin, Joel and Darcey. We said good bye to the other boys. "Bye Louis!! I'll miss ya." I said hugging him, he had to get back to the others. "I'll miss you to Clara." I started to cry a bit. "Why are you crying.?" He asked. "Because I might never see you again." His face brightened up. "Don't worry you will." What does he mean?

When the live shows came it was super awesome!! All my boy's did really well. In the first week one of LA's groups left. Second week Joel left, which was really sad. The weeks felt long. But when ever I heard one of my boy's perform it felt worth it, Darcey left in the 8th week. Now all I have is Caiden and Kellin!! When we got to the week with the audition song, Caiden got the most votes. He really did sound amazing. "CAiden you did really well tgis week!!" I congradulated him. Kellin and Caiden went to hang out back stage while Demi and I went and talked to Simon and LA. "I really do think Caiden could win it." "And I think so too." Demi agreed. The guy's rolled their eyes. Because they didn't like him.

"We have a special week this week." The crew told us, it was the last week of the season. The whole thing went past so fast. I was going to perform with Caiden, since Kellin left last week. He and Monique (One of Demi's girls) were the only ones left. There were going to be heaps of performers like the Black eyes peas, Demi, me ect. "Caiden what song are you going to perform today?" I asked. "Um, I'm oing that duet with you, then I'm doing 'If you cant hang' by sleeping with sires. And one other song, but that's a surprise." Caiden sang heavy metal types of songs so I don't know what song we're doing together. "Any ideas of what we can sing together?" I asked him. He smiled. "Can we do your one, Breakeven?" He asked. "Sure!" We walked over to the studio and practiced. We sounded great together!! Demi and I sat around talking to some people while we waited for the whole thing to start. We met Fergie!! Her, Demi and I were talking for ages. Fianlly the show started. "First up we have a performance from Ke$ha!!" The announcer said. After the performance it was time for Caidens first song; the duet with me! "Please welcome Clara and Caiden to the stage" We walked on and sang. During the chorus I saw somthing in the side wing of the stage. It looked like Louis. But I looked again and nothing was there. We danced around the stage and had so much fun!! When the song finished I ran over to Caiden and gave him a giant hug. "Well done, you sounded way better than last time." We walked off stage but I stood there with Demi talking. "Can you please welcome One Direction to stage with their song Over Again?" I stopped and turned around. The song started. I saw all of the boys there. Harry, Louis, Liam, Zayn and Niall. I nearly fainted. When Niall's solo came on he looked me straight in the eye and sang. Why is he doing this to me? I remembered what happened 2 months ago, "I'll be back later." I said running out of the wing and to my dressing room. I sat there crying when I heard the door open.

"Clara? Why did you run away?" Someone said in a huff.
