"Yeah, why wait?" Courtney asked with a smile.

by **Allie Orton** Mon Feb 14, 2011 6:37 pm

"It's just, I uh..." Allie stuttered.

by **Courtney Orton** Mon Feb 14, 2011 10:09 pm

"What?" Courtney asked.

by **Allie Orton** Mon Feb 14, 2011 10:27 pm

"I guess I'm pretty nervous." Allie said, looking away.

by **Courtney Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 12:25 am

"Don't worry about it. Just take a deep breath and relax, I was pretty nervous when I first started singing but it's something you have to get over, don't let it hold you back." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 8:42 am

"Okay." Allie said before taking a deep breathe and smiling.

by **Courtney Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 5:27 pm

"Now go in there and sing." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 6:48 pm

"Okay! Pushy much." Allie joked.

by **Courtney Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 7:54 pm

Courtney chuckled as she sat down on a chair.

"Sorry, whenever you're ready." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Tue Feb 15, 2011 11:54 pm

"What do I sing?" Allie asked.

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 1:01 am

"Anything you want." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 9:58 am

"Firework, I guess." Allie said, that being the first song in her head.

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 10:01 am

"Alright go ahead." Courtney said as she pressed the recording button.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 10:19 am

Allie took a deep breath before she started singing.

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?

Do you ever feel already buried deep?
Six feet under screams but no one seems to hear a thing
Do you know that there's still a chance for you
'Cause there's a spark in you?

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby, you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
Just own the night like the 4th of July

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

'Cause baby you're a firework
Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, oh
As you shoot across the sky

Baby, you're a firework
Come on, let your colors burst
Make 'em go, oh
You're gonna leave 'em falling down

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

Allie looked up at Courtney, waiting for a response. Hopefully a good one.

Courtney stopped the recording then pressed a button so Allie could hear her in the recording booth.

"You really should come out here and hear how amazing you sounded." Courtney said with a wide smile.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:24 pm

"Really?" Allie asked.

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:40 pm

"Yes really." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:43 pm

Allie walked out and stood next to Courtney. "Was I really good?"

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:46 pm

"Yes you were, you were great." Courtney said as she played the recording.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:49 pm

"Thanks." Allie said as she listened to herself sing. "Wow...I really do sound good."

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 5:52 pm

"I told you." Courtney said with a smile.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 6:02 pm

"Yeah, yeah." she joked. "That's crazy, I didn't even know I could sing."

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 6:14 pm

"You're really talented." Courtney said.

by **Allie Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 6:22 pm

"Thanks."

by **Courtney Orton** Wed Feb 16, 2011 6:35 pm

"You're welcome." Courtney said as she saved the recording to a cd.
