My Best Friend's Brother (A Reece Mastin Fanfic)

Chapter 5

Hey everyone! I am so so so so so so so sorry that this hasn’t been updated in like forever!!!! After I posted the last chapter, my laptop broke and it took ages to be fixed and then I got it back and I got caught up with the end of holidays and the start of school so please forgive me for not getting this up sooner. I’ve been sitting here for the past few hours writing this chapter and trying to make it good and slightly longer for all you that are still reading. I thank everyone who has not given up on this story <3

Georgina and I woke up at around 1:00 the next afternoon. We put a movie on and ordered room service. We snuggled up in bed even though it was the afternoon and eventually there was a knock on the door. Georgina answered it and brought a tray of food back to the beds. We ate our food and the movie finished soon after. It was about 2:30 so we dragged ourselves out of bed and changed into our bathers.

After about an hour of swimming we went back to our room. I had a shower and started to get ready for tonight. I wore the same thing that I wore on the plane except instead of the peacock top, I put on my Reece Mastin Xfactor top that Deb created. I did my makeup and curled my hair slightly.

A few hours later we were sitting in the Xfactor studio, waiting for the show to begin. Before long Luke Jacobz stepped on to the stage and started talking before introducing Reece, as he was the first to perform. As soon as he stepped out on stage, a massive smile spread across my face. It had been so long since I had last seen him in person, only over the internet and on skype. I’m not going to lie, I had missed him so much and I have thought about him every single day that he has been away. He began to sing ‘Closer To The Edge’ by 30 Seconds To Mars.

I don’t remember the moment I tried to forget

I lost myself, it is better not said

Now I’m closer to the edge

It was a thousand to one and million to two

Time to go down in flames and I’m taking you

Closer to the edge

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No no no no

(Can you, can you, can you)

Can you imagine a time when the truth ran free?

The birth of a song, the death of a dream

Closer to the edge

This never ending story

Paid for with pride and fate

We all fall short of glory

lost innocence

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No no no no

No no no no

I will never forget

No no

I will never regret

No no

I will live my life

No no no no

I will never forget

No no

I will never regret

No no

I will live my life

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No I’m not saying I’m sorry

One day maybe we’ll meet again

No no no no

Closer to the edge

Closer to the edge

No no no no

Closer to the edge

Closer to the edge

No no no no

Closer to the edge

As he finished the song, you couldn’t wipe the smile off of my face, I was so proud of him. I stood up and clapped and cheered with the rest of the audience before sitting back down again. Reece listened to the judges comments before heading backstage. We watched the rest of the performers before the show ended. Everyone started to head out but me and Georgie stayed behind. I noticed two doors, one on either side of the stage with a security guard in front of them. I started to walk toward the one on the left.

“Ashlie, where are you going!” Georgie whispered as she followed me

“To see Reece, where else would I be going?”

“What! Are you crazy, how do you plan on getting back there!”

“I’ll find a way, c’mon Georgie, you know I will”

“I don’t want to get in any trouble Ashley”

“Okay okay! You go wait with the others and I’ll meet you out there in a minute”

She nodded and headed outside. When I turned around the security guard was talking on his walkie talkie. He put it away and walked away from the door. As soon as his back was turned, I ran over to the door and quietly went inside. I walked down the long hallway before coming to a stop in front of a room that had ‘Reece Mastin’ on the door. This must be his dressing room! I knocked on the door, hoping that he was still here.

“Come in”

I opened the door and went inside, shutting the door behind me. He had his back to the door.

“Reece!”

He quickly spun around with a shocked look on his face as I ran towards him, jumping into his opened arms.

“Ashlie”

Hope you enjoyed the chapter :) Please vote and comment if you liked it! I hope to get the next chapter up soon :)

p.s. I know he didn't sing the whole song on XFactor, it was a shortened version, but I put it all on here anyway :P
