Born Super Star (open)

It had been her dream for many years, to sing, to preform. She enjoyed the feeling of it. She got that chance, Lady Gaga was trying to get away from people flashing wanting a picture of her. She took her hand and led her, she worked hard to protect her. Finally they were alone, she was happy to have her for a friend. But when she gave Bella the card, she smiled and left. Looking at the card she smiled.

"Recital" and the address, This was the chance she wanted. When she got home she got ready, she was to do two different dances and outfits. She wore a white dress, it covered most of her. She slid her feet into her white boots. She grabbed what she would need and she headed out. Her stomach was tied into knots. Was she loosing her courage? no she refused to loose the nerve. She got into her car and went to the studio.


She only saw three people, well she made four. She saw the girls, they were into Lady Gaga. She saw the girls, they were terrified she could tell. But soon it was her turn. She slowly moved, a graceful step. She saw someone, he was tall and dark. Looking at him made her fear vanish, she went outside seeing many people. Bella was excited to be doing this, the first song came up, it was from a woman that lived in Japan. But when the song got into beat she removed her white dress.

Standing before them was a leather tube top, leather shorts and leather boots. Everything was white and fitted her body perfectly. She began to sing and dance, she took everything from the bad romance video. She used the steps and changed when they needed more then one person. She had so much fun. She stopped when everything else did, she saw people stand up and clap, she bowed and left.

Bella wondered who that man was, she smiled. She did have a flaw, she was shy around men, she didn't know why. She went to get a drink and the bar she sighed softly. She sipped her drink and relaxed.

`Bump`

The man, appeared to be casually dressed and was in his mid-thirties. He had stayed behind for the entire performance of the girl, whom Lady Gage had recommended him,earlier to sign on for a record.

As the girl ended her performance and sidetracked, she noticed him. He returned his gaze at her and then walked towards her, easily towering over the crowd around and then stepping just behind her,his voice deep,he complimented.

"That was a good performance, worth waiting and watching."

He had his hands around a glass of beer as he stood by her and then introduced him for the first time.

"I don't believe we have met,but I know you. My name is Robin Dawson, and I own Big Bang Music Company. Maybe you'd like to tell me more about yourself and your experience in this industry."

He was very calm but apparently, calculative, taking down mental notes of everyhing he was learning about her which may be useful later.

She was taken back by all this, a guy actully wanting to get to know her. Looking up into his eyes she smiled, she saw kindness in him. "Pleasure to meet you" Bella said with a kind smile. "Nothing much to tell Mr Dawson, ive been trying to use my musical talents for a year. But no one wants to even hear a song I made up. I guess because of my age, they see me as a child. But I don't know" Something about him...made her smile even more. She was rather shy, but she felt like they had been friends for years.

Robin had his gaze on Bella as she spoke, taking in every word of hers and she described her musical talents she been trying to find a way to expose but had lack of opportunity. He just nodded like he understood what she had been through and he replied.

"Maybe you've been looking at the wrong places. "

He took a sip off his glass of beer and then placed it on the table where they were standing by, exposing his long fingers with some odd rings.

"You do have the innocence of a child in your performance and I think you'd fetch a good market and go down well with the teen fan base. The last time we had a celebrity who managed to pull a large fan base was Miley Cyrus. Now I see you have the same potential. I should hear those you have recorded for myself in any case and I'd make sure I'd groom you to stardom."

He spoke with much confidence and enthusiasm, and experience as he seemed spirited to try out the talents of Bella for himself.

She was happy to talk to him, she noticed he paid close attention to her. What he said was true, she was innocent. When he said what he did, her fingers went into her bag and pulled out a cd in a case. Looking down at it, she ran her fingers over the case. Was this her chance? she was so afraid of being disappointed. What the hell tho, you can only live once. She handed him the case and smiled.

"I wrote all the songs, I play the piano and the guitar so it was easy to make songs up" Bella said with a smile.

Robin reached out for the cd case she passed to them and flipped it open, and saw all the recorded copies of her music inside. She had many copies of them and seemed to have taken alot of time in getting them recorded.

He put his hands into his pants pocket and pulled out a Diskman. He slid one of the recorded copies of her music from the case and then inserted into the Diskman and putting on the ear pieces, he played the music.

He remained in silence and very focused as he listened to the music from the cd for a minute or two before he paused and then pulled down his ear piece and then replied.

"Hmm...you singing is there. And instruments, you play the guitar and piano you say? Ever had any musical training lessons before in your early years? Or any artists who particularly influence your style? I'm asking, because it's going to be a start, to establish a unique style on your own in your music. Popular artists do this all the time, they establish their signature in their music or singing style or videos or costumes. It's all about leaving something of yours for people to remember you of. So do you have something you'd like to leave your signature behind?"

She listened to him, watching him. She was surprised he played it right there and then, she bite her lip as he listened. She was almost afraid to know what he thought, but with what he said. She nodded when he asked about classes. "Yes I was taught how to play the piano at the age of five and the guitar at the age of ten. I know I need improvements, even in my singing I know im lacking something. Least I think so" Bella said with a smile. She sighed softly. When he asked about what artist.

"Well, a few different people. Perhaps im crazy" She chuckled with a smile.

"I love Lady Gaga's dancing, that got me into dancing. As for singers, id have to say Within Temptation and Barlow Girls. I like to express my feelings, ive never been into songs about losing a boyfriend."

Robin's face lit with a smile, a slight one listening to her been influenced by various people and Lady Gaga been one of them.

"Lady Gaga is one of my good friends in the industry. Knew Stef, since she was writing songs. She was not unlike you, when she started. Full of ideas and aspirations, and never failing to go for them."

He lowered his gaze and drumming his fingers on the edge of the table he said beneath his breath.

"She was the one who told me, you'd be a good catch. And here I am, as I need a new and fresh face for a new album I intend to produce.And emotions are good, I'd think it'll be apt for a teen celebrity like yourself to sing about things like boyfriends, it goes down easy and fast with teens.."

He removed the CD he was listening and sliding it back into the cd case he asked.

"Can I take this with me to listen to them?"

She smiled and nodded to what he said, she nodded "Sure you can have it, I have a copy at home, oh and there is one thing" She said, she had a bright smile on her face. "I also listen to music from Japan, im self taught. I always had a thing for Japan, I must have been a geisha or something in another life." She giggled. "Im rusty at it, but growing up. I wanted a taste of everything, to hear the music in the heart of the band. " looking down for a moment, then she looked back at him.

"Im flattered, by you. You see me in a new light, each person I listen to. Something inside me makes me stop. To listen to the music, to feel what hey feel."

"Thank you."

Robin thanked her as he closed the CD case and placed it within his arms reach and gazed at her as she spoke of her fascination with Japan and their music.

"I saw the influence of Japan in your performance you did earlier. This is something new and not attempted much, with mainstream pop. Did you learn those moves from Japanese music videos?"

He asked in deep interest and curiosity and listened to her speak of how much music affects her and he nodded in understanding and replied,with a smile.

"That's the easiest way for you to connect with music and connect with your fans. I like the style you portray your music. I am more than ready to invite you to your first recording in fact, whenever you are ready."

Bella listened to him, thinking of what he said. "Ive learned different dances that they do over there" She sighed with a smile "Koda Kumi is the artist I love the most, she did a song for a video game, funny thing is I remember each step. Amazing what you learn when you really involve yourself"

"You tend to be influenced by things you are involved in. That's how we sell."

He said in a brief explanation, even though he had never heard of the artist, he still had enough experience to understand what she meant as he said.

"And that's how I have a use for you. To make your music just as interesting and unique, and get your fan involved. You have a good prospect even though amateur you are, in dance."

He put his hands into his coat and retrieved a thin file which fitted in. He flipped it open and then took out a paper, an agreement or contract of sort. He passed to her and said.

"This is the contract of the recording deal. Read through it and sign it and bring it over when you come for your recording session. I'd be expecting you."

She was surprised by all this, he wanted her right then and there. She took the pen and read everything quickly. Her parents told her to read before you sign, she had a big smile on her face as she signed it. She looked back up at him, and bowed her head a little. She looked back into his eyes and was really happy.

"You know, this is like a dream come true...actully it is a dream come true" She giggled

Robin just sat calmly, glancing over at her as she went through the terms and condition of the contract and signed it, looking very excited and clearly seemd very happy.

"Wait till you get your first renumeration for this project. That will be your first dream come true."

He replied, encouragingly, knowing too well how much artists earn after their first album become a big hit.

"You just have to work and establish yourself right in the start. Would I be asking too much if I ask to see your performance, dance or performance on an instrument on one of the songs you wrote,personally at the recording studio to see for myself, how talented you are?"

Bella was content and nodded "Sure, I have a song ive been working on. I didn't get a chance to make it. When my parents died I used some of the money to make a cd. But id be honored to perform it for you" She was eager and enjoyed the excitement. "When ever you want me to do it, I will" She ordered a drink. She managed to wiggle out a small drink, she only gets one drink. She doesn't get drunk and when she drinks its just one small shot. She didn't like those who drink to get drunk. She waited to see what would come out of his mouth.

"You seem pretty enthusiastic..good just the way I want it."

Robin replied impressed and glanced over at his watch, an expensive rolex and then glanced at her and then said.

"If you haven't got much issues, we can start first pre-recording tommorrow morning at 8 am,first thing. I will be waiting for you, it'll do good if you come with your costumes you have performed in today. I might have a video recording tommorrow on your performance so that I csan view it and plan on how to make a music video."

He took his glass and then drank down what was left of the beer in his glass, and he seemed pretty elated.

She nodded her head "Sounds good" Bella said and she brought out a small card and handed it to him. "My cell and my home phone, just in case" She said softly. "But I don't plan on missing tomorrow. A thousand horses couldn't stop me" She chuckled. But she grew serious fast, she seemed to know how to act at certain times. "I will bring the outfits" Looking down. "I am honored you want me, I was afraid I wasn't good enough and if I was just wasting my time" She said kindly.

Robin gave a quick glance of her card and he put it into his pocket and then retreived one of his own and exchanged with her. Just as he did, his cell phone started ringing.

His calm and relaxed expression suddenly changed to stony as he pulled out his HTC cell phone and glanced at the number, sighing like he was mulling over whether or not to answer and finally he decided he would as he excused himself.

"Excuse me."

He turned his back to her as he picked up the call, his voice all hushed up and impatient, as he spoke, rapidly.

"Ok,please stop doing this to me. I told you I'd get those signed. Yes. I'm busy on business, I'll talk to the lawyer this Sunday. Ok, please don't call me again."

He clicked his phone off and turned to Bella with a far away look in his eyes, and he said softly.

"Sorry about that."

He seemed distracted for a short bit and he fiddled with his phone for a while and then he looked up at her and asked.

"Would you like another glass of drink? I think I could do with another, would make me..umm..feel better.."

Bella heard what he said, course the person on the phone she just heard a voice. She looked down for a moment. And when he looked up at her she looked back at him, she nodded and ordered another drink. "I don't mean to pry, its none of my business but...are you ok?" She had a kind heart and always pleased others. She waited for what he would tell her, she noticed people leaving so it was only a handful of people, she felt more relaxed.

Robin wandered off away, leaving her on her own and only returned with another glass of vodka as he sat down beside her, paying for their drinks.

As he helped himself to his drink, trying very hard to control his intake, he looked at her, in deep thought of a sort at her question. Her question in nowhere disturbed him, but he sighed.

"I am...I wish..."

He muttered to himself as he took more swig off his glass and he looked over her and said, trying to change the topic.

"Sorry about that. again. And I thank you for spending the evening with me.Maybe I could drop you off at your house?"

She smiled and with the topic no longer on the able she just replied with what he said. "It feels good to talk to you. Im usually very shy, but something about you..your easy to talk to. " Bella in her head said "Damn he is good looking" "Im having fun, feels like ive known you for years...kind of strange but I love it.

Robin started to get more at ease as they slid off to a new topic, clearly he was more than willing to get into it and listening to her speak, he smiled and replied humbly.

"I'm glad you feel that way. This could be a great start in our partnership."

He seemed to slightly at ease as he chucked his cell phone back into his pocket and he leaned towards her again as he spoke.

"So how did you know Stef...I mean Lady Gaga?"

She grew even more comfortable with him, she thought "Its a funny story, i was heading over to my car and I heard her name. I saw her being bombarded by the paparazzi so I took her hand and helped her get out of the situation, she gave me her card and here I am. I was so nervous, but I was able to pull it off." My stomach was up in my throat tho" She laughed. Something about him made her feel something he was special and she knew something may spark

"You're lucky.."

Robin said with a slight chuckle now as he started getting very comfortable around her and he added.

"She'd what we call a VVIP..eve Producers have to get appointments to see her."

He looked around and saw that the Lady Gaga fans were gone, leaving just very little people aorund in the bar. He finished up what remained of his vodka and stood up,pikcing up her CD Case.

"I think it's time we get started. Mind I drop you at your house?"

He offered her, looking at her now and smiling.
