Chapter 9: Duet Duels

(CRYSTALS POV)

I was woken up by the sharp ringing of a bell. "Oh my god..." I muttered as I realized the reason behind this. Today was the first day of the duet duels. You have no idea what I'm talking about. I'll explain. Basically, each person at camp would be paired up with one other person. Those two people basically had to choose a song from some other artist (neither one of them) and perform it in front of a panel of highly qualified judges. Bands even had to split up and find a partner. Running to the little closet, I pulled on my white cardigan and slipped into some jeans. Grabbing my moccasins, a knit hat and a scarf, I rushed out of the room. I practically ran into Niall on the way out of my cabin.

"Oh god...sorry!" I cried in my rush to get out the door. My head probably looked like a mess, considering I'd only stuffed a hat on it and not bothered to brush it.

"No problem. Hey, um, are you nervous about getting paired up?" He muttered softly, as we began to walk together towards the big domed building where we'd be put into pairs.

Really nervous. I mean, what if they put me with someone like Christina Aguilera! Oh my god Niall she's so good, my voice is so small compared to her!" I ranted. Niall chuckled.

"Nah, their pairing boys with girls. So that way it won't be so competitive." Niall shrugged.

"Oh, right." I blushed. I then remembered what I was going to tell Niall. I had to tell him that I liked him back.

"So, about last night Niall..." I began, but was cut off my a loud voice projected over a speaker.

"Welcome, super stars, to the beginning of the duet duels! Please proceed inside of the Dome, where we'll give you instructions for these duels." A voice said cheerily.

"C'mon! Tell me later. We can't be late." Niall said, looking a but disappointed as he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards the Dome. Dang it. I got butterflies...go away stupid butterflies. Niall, why'd you have to grab my hand? We finally arrived at the dome, entering and taking a seat next to Little Mix and the rest of One Direction, who had saved us seats.

"Is that Jay Z for seats to the right?" I whispered to Niall, who nodded.

"Oh my god!" I Fangirled slightly before controlling myself. "Sorry." Niall laughed at me, scrunching up his nose a bit. His laugh was pure Adorableness (A/N: ive made that word up. Heh.😜).

"Hello Campers! Now I'll get straight to the point and explain how this works. Basically, the camp managers have written each persons name on a slip of paper and divided it into two boxes. The boys and the girls. I will choose one slip of paper from each box, and those two people whos names are on the papers will be partners. Each pair WILL get along, alright? No swapping partners. The pairs will choose one song WHICH was not formally sung by either of them. Thank you, and lets start the pairing!" A petite lady with platinum blonde hair smiled warmly out at us, presenting two silverish boxes. The whole dome was filled with the whispers of everyone, discussing the entire thing. Here we go...now I just have to pray I get someone I either know or could get along with.

The lady smiled at us and pulled a slip of paper from each box. And so, the duet duels began.
