"Another round of applause for our contestants!" Amadeus speaks in the microphone, his now pink hair shinning with red glitters and his smile as white and brilliant as his tuxedo. We get on stage in a row, Harry and I walking side by side, our hands locked tightly. I didn't have the chance to really talk to him about the performance since everything was rushed and we got called on stage. But I'm still floating after what happened though, and I feel so honored that I got the chance to hear him sing. It was truly a memorable moment, and it made my heart swell to hear Harry sing the "i love you's" even if it was just for the song. It just made me fall even harder.

"Our judges have thought long and hard about each of your performances, we have winners! But sadly, one team, two girls will be leaving the show tonight." His grin falls into a pout for a fraction of second before Amadeus beams again. "Now, ladies and gentlemen, please welcome Our Majesty and beloved leader, King Arthur Styles!" The crowd roars as Harry's father appears from behind screens, dressed in a black suit, a red tie wrapped around his neck. He smiles, no dimples showing like his son, but still looking handsome. He waves at the crowd before taking the microphone Amadeus hands him.

"Good evening." He speaks and we bow down except Harry. "Tonight was filled with excitement and electricity. Each of you were remarkably talented and we had the delight to witness it. Congratulations once again." A woman comes on stage, handing the King a small envelope. "We must announce the winner now, which I, along with my relatives, chose depending on many aspects, success being one of them."

"Five teams, one is safe from elimination, one is the winner and one lost. Lets start with my son, Prince Harry, and Miss Madison Pearl." The crowd is loud as Harry and I approach his father, stress tying my stomach in knots. "I guess he didn't tell you that you were staying safe from elimination, did he?" The King chuckles and the nerves vanish, being replaced by confusion.

"No...He did not." I turn to look at Harry, seeing him look down at the floor, smirk curling his lips. Well, then.

"Then I'm glad to tell you that you will not be sent home tonight. Also, your performance was charming and we could feel the...connection." I blush crimson, shyly thanking him under the eyes of hundred of people. I stare at Harry, this last one already looking at me fondly, melting my heart.

"Now, now," He turns to face the other girls, only Kim, Camellia and Simone looking absolutely nervous. "On the third spot, with a total of 23 points; Simone Valley and Jasmine Robbins with their tap dancing." Everyone applaud while Simone smiles, relieved to be staying. And I guess the thought she could have been safe if it weren't for her behaviour only added to Jas' sadness, her whole being darkening.

"The second best performance earned itself a total of 32 points. They impressed us with their complicity and magic between them. Miss Yu and Miss Taylor, congratulations." They hug each other, Victoria being more excited than Cindy obviously since she's the one staying. "And the last, but not the least, with a total of 40 points, our winners of the night are Kimberly Tempel and Camellia Campbell!" The crowd roars as the two girls screech in joy, jumping in each other's arms. My face splits into a wide smile, so happy that they won the challenge. Their routine was absolutely amazing and they completely deserved it. My gaze flicks to Alexandra and Noel, the tall girl glaring in fury at her partner while Noel shakily smiles at the crowd. Amadeus chats with them a bit while the rest of us congrats the winning team before they leave the stage with a final goodbye.

"What an eventful night we had, my Lord." Amadeus chuckles in the microphone, earning a nod from the King. "Everyone cheer for our winners of the night, Kimberly and Camellia! Would you like the hear your price?" Amadeus turns his attention to Harry who detaches himself from to speak in front of everyone.
