Hi, my name is Emily and I am 19 soon to be 20 and I am still in school.. Yep that's right I am soon to be 20 and still in school. As soon as i am 20 i will be leaving though... It's because I chose to stay on for sixth form and I missed alot so I am making up for them now- I am just that sad.

If I am not at school I am raising my niece and nephew. My sister died of cancer not long ago and her twins, Chloe and Owen, don't have a father. The dickhead ran off when he found out my sister, Jessica, told him that she was pregnant... He didn't like he idea so he simply fucked off; charming lad he is (note the sarcasm)

Me and Jess don't have any parents really- our dad died in a car crash and ever since, our mother has not been right; she got so bad that we were forced to put her in a home. That's why I have missed so much school, I was godmother meaning that Chloe and Owen are now mine- while I am at school they go to nursery and then I pick them up when I am down then drop them at my neighbours while I do my shift at nandos. It's the only way to bring in money; I don't enjoy it but I suppose I have to do it. Not for me, not for Chloe and Owen but I owe it to Jess- she was the most amazing person you will ever meet. I don't understand why cancer decided to take her but I guess I can't do anything but take care of her previous little angels.

That's pretty much my life, sad right? I have no time to date between school, my shifts and taking care of the twins. But I don't care- I love then like they're my own and they mean the world to me; I can put up with all the stress and all the pressure as long as they stays safe.

Oh, one more thing to note about me is that the only happiness in my life(other than Chloe and Owen) is this group of 5 Gods sent from heaven to please people like me.. Their names? Tom Parker, Nathan Sykes, Max George, Siva Kaneswaran and last but certainly not the least.. Jay McGuiness. That's right! I am a 19 year old loser obsessed with THE WANTED! If you don't like them, you can just go away because your opinion is invalid!

Anyway, I am currently making my way into the main school hall because we have an announcement about his years talent show and apparently a performance from a 'surprise guest' knowing my school that means someone that used to go here and has now become a successful lawyer or something, sigh. I really want to participate in this years show but I don't have the time or talent- I like to sing and my friends say that I am good but they have never really heard me sing properly; maybe occasionally in the shower if they stay over or humming while I have my headphones in.

I wonder what Jay is doing right now.. He's probably still sleeping actually considering that is only 10:30AM. Lucky him, I barely sleep as soon as I get home from school at 4, I get changed and I am off out for my shift till 10. Then when i get home I have to collect the twins, make sure theyre fine then I can go to bed- but if by any luck I get to sleep chances are I will be awoken by Chloe- she has these recurring nightmares where this strange man comes in and tries to take her from me. At the age of 5 years old, Chloe and I have a very strong bond. No one and I do mean no one can come between us. It's just impossible. My bond with Owen is quite tight aswell but he is more energetic so he doesn't mind running around the house on his own. I am very protective of the twins so are they of me. They don't really trust people because nearly everyone that's come into their lives has gone away of hurt one of us in someway. But you know what they say; children and dogs are the best judges of character.

Sorry for rambling, I tend to do that..

Back to the assembly; the head teacher, Mrs Gremlinge (yeah it does sound like gremlin, we always take the piss out of her for it lol) is standing at the front telling us all the details about the show I decide not to listen because, well, Idgaf.. I can't participate anyway and I cant watch it either: I have no one to watch Chloe and Owen. I can only hear a few words that she is saying but not many.. Who cares.

"...guest.. make... welcome... WANTED!!!" I shot up out of my seat and turn to Megan next to me who just started to scream amongst the rest of the fangirls in our school.

"DID SHE JUST SAY THE WANTED?!!"

"YESSS!!! Now let's get to the front!!" She grabs my wrist and pulls me down the front where we sing and dance along.

Omg!! Jay freaking mcGuiness is standing right in front if me- oh, the eyes the curls, the voice.. Is this some kind of dream.

Next thing know they start to sing one of my personal favourites... Heart vacancy!
