"1,2,3,4! I'm so insecure I think that I'll die before I drink..." Evie sang loudly through her mic as she stood at the centre of the stage, grasping tightly to the mic and every now and then making suggestive movements with it.

The second rehearsal finally had the full staging and they were a dressed in one of their trial outfits for the live final. The stage was set with large layered curtains of varying textures and purple, cream and brown hues, blurring to become the perfect scene for a shouty song about the perils of being a teenage girl.

Mia had a classic a-line red dress that she had thrifted weeks prior as she believed it matched her bass perfectly, Margot wore a brown leather corset over a pale long silk dress with blue embellished details that also perfectly encapsulated their attitude. Natalia had a short black dress with perfectly layered fishnet tights, thick cream socks, a large red knit cardigan and a black leather jacket. While Evie wore a short ivory silk babydoll dress, ripped tights, an oversized brown leather jacket and heavily layered silver jewellery. Each of them plucked straight from a 90s riot grrrl scene. With Evie at the helm generously adorned with heavy makeup resembling that of Courtney Love's kinderwhore style.

Their performance was possibly their best, receiving huge rounds of applause and general admiration from Summer and the few acts that stood around the stage to watch.

By the end of the song her jacket was on the floor and few of her tattoos were left on show. Evie looked perfectly bedraggled and felt it with a lingering hangover from the night before.

"That was amazing, perfect! I'm so proud of my girls." Summer hugged them and applauded their performance while they finished detaching themselves from their microphones and instruments.

"Evie, darling. How's your head? I heard you went out last night." Summer continued, rubbing Evie's forehead as she asked.

"It's alright, could've been worse." Evie smiled and repositioned her hair behind her ears. "I'm very tired though."

"Yes well you can sleep in a bit but you've got the press conference and then lunch. After that you are free."

"Where were you yesterday?" Natalia asked Margot as they walked off the stage and back to their dressing room.

"I was with you lot, what do you mean?"

"No after we left the bar you didn't come with us." Natalia added, looking into Margot's eyes.

"Oh umm I just stayed at the bar a bit longer with Ethan but I got a bit tired so just went back to the hotel." Margot answered hoping Nat would stop her questioning.

"Okay sure." Natalia added walking away.

"Evie!" Victoria shouted across the bubble, rushing towards her.

"Victoria!" Evie replied hugging the blonde girl, waiting for her to say something else.

"Your performance was so good, and I love your outfit." Vic complimented sweetly.

"Thank you so much, but I'm not going to lie I have the fattest hangover from last night."

"Oh my god, me too. I really think I overdid it." She laughed as the pulled away from eachother.

"I've got the press conference thing now but we should meet up again at lunch." Evie suggested.

"Yes, we should. I'll meet you by the entrance in an hour." Vic rushed before running off again and leaving Evie to rush off to the press conference hall.

"Ahh Evie! My favourite woman!" Victoria shouted yet again when the band walked into the lunch hall to meet with their newfound friends.
