As Lovely As You (George Shelley Fanfic)

Chapter 39 - Styled by Jamie & Julia

Well I don’t know about you guys, but after someone kisses me, I feel pretty good. Especially if this someone is a certain George Shelley.

We pulled apart and I knew I had a mixture of 2 face expressions on my face; surprise and delight. Although my eyes were wide open, I couldn’t stop grinning. “So, yeah, I’ll see you later Laura” he smiled back and ran to the door.

He kisses me and then runs away, I don’t know what to assume of that.  (I actually do, but let’s pretend I don’t) I just wanted this happiness to last longer. He kissed me.Me. So he liked me. Me. I could die now, George Shelley liked me.

I headed back to the restaurant with a smile stamped to my face. I felt so light, like everything was perfect. All the guilt and confusion I had inside me were gone. Cause he liked me, he kissed me.

Funny how all the trouble started because I didn’t kiss him in the first place and now that I did, everything was fine again. I just hope they stay that way.

2 days later Richard Holloway called me:

- Hello Laura!

- Hi Mr.Holloway - I responded

- So, today is wednesday only 3 days till the next show, we’ll need you to come here tomorrow at 10am to see some paper things and film you for some clips too!

- Sure I’ll just need to see it with Amelia

- Great! Text me to confirm you’re coming and we’ll see you tomorrow ok? - he said -Bye!

- Ok, bye! - I hanged up.

“It still seems unbelievable you know” Amelia said “Like I’m dreaming or something. Hell, you must feel like you’re dreaming”, “I don’t know, maybe, it feels like it’s happening but I’m not aware of it” I responded, “Let’s just make sure you come out of this experience satisfied” she replied. We were on the car on our way to the Xtra Factor studios, it wasn’t a long drive but there was a lot of traffic. “We should have left sooner” my aunt sighed “You’ll be late” “And on my first day of work! That’s lucky” I said “It’s not really work, you see, you’re just receiving free stuff, not money” she pointed out “Well, it is kind of a job, since the free stuff is great too” I responded “I wonder what kind of things they’ll be giving you” she said “We’ll see”.

Amelia dropped me off at the studios at 10:22, saying to call her when I finished the filming. I thanked her and entered on the building. “Laura you’re finally here, I was just about to call you!” I was greeted by Mr.Holloway “Sorry. there was a lot of traffic” I responded “The contestants were a bit late too, so it’s okay. But let’s get you to hair and make-up now!” he shouted gesturing to a woman “Lydia will take you to the make-up room andI’ll see you later” he said leaving.

Lydia lead me to a corridor with lots of doors, she opened one of them and inside there were lots of mirrors and chairs. Sitting in one of them there was Rylan Clark having his hair styled by a short guy wearing glasses.

“Laura! What are you doing here?” “Hey Rylan! I’m kind of working for the Xtra Factor now” I responded “What? How did it happen?” he asked “Rylan sorry to interrupt, I’m finished with your hair, I need to do hers now” the short guy pointed at me “Oh, of course, thanks Jamie” he left his chair and hugged the hairstylist “I have to go now, but girl you need to tell me everything! Give me your number and we’ll text each other later”.

We exchanged phones and when Rylan left I had my hair styled by Jamie Stevens. After that, Julia Carta came to finish my look with a soft touch of make-up. “Woah” I said looking in the mirror “Who is this person?” “It’s still yourself” Julia replied “I just enhanced what was already there” “It looks amazing thank you!” I smiled, “You’re welcome dear, you can go now, they’re expecting you on the green room” she said.

I hopped out of the chair and opened the door, to my surprise, right there, standing in front of me, there was George Shelley.
