Irresistible

chapter one

"And the winner of this years united kingdom's eurovision selection competition is..!" the presenters began.
My heart was racing, my whole body shaking..

It had been my dream to be on eurovision since I was a little girl.
Now, here I was, literally having the chance to represent the united kingdom.

The tension was rising as the presenters were about to announce the winner.
The whole place was silent.
I could feel Dahlias breath on my neck.
She was sitting behind me.
I was feeling super nervous, my leg now bouncing up and down and my lips trembling.

Dahlia had been supportive of me my whole life.
She was my best friend.
She was the one that got me into all of this. I wouldnt be here if it wasn't for her.

"EVA WILDE!" the presenter yelled.
I was in pure shock.
I was frozen.
Everyone around me jumped up, and started cheering, meanwhile I was having my Ethan winning eurovision moment.. (please tell me someone gets this).

It finally hit me.
I would be on eurovision.
ME?!
Dahlia jumped out of her seat and grabbed my hands.
We cheered for ages.

"Congratulations Eva! We hope you will do us proud!!" The presenter shouted.
I was starting to tear up. This was my dream, and it was finally coming true.

"EVA OH MY GOD YOURE GOING TO BE ON FUCKING EUROVISION!!" Dahlia yelled.
"OH MY GOD I AM!!" I laughed, still cheering and wiping a tear from my cheek.

My whole stomach felt tight, and my whole body shaking in excitement.
I could see my parents in the crowd, waving their arms at me.

I was super proud of myself. This was my passion.
Music had been my everything.
I remember singing nursery rhymes to my dad in the car when I was 4.

I grew up with singing, whenever I got the chance to sing I would.
People would think my energy was "hyper" or "rather annoying".
But I didn't care, and especially not now.

I was super excited to be working with so many amazing, talented people.
Sure, there was also a nervous, and working super hard part to it.

Doing eurovision wouldnt be as easy as you think it would be.
I tried not to think of the negative things, and think of the positive side.
I wouldnt have to travel too far, as I was from London, but again it would still be a pretty big journey.

Although eurovision was still quite a long way from now, I still had to get prepared.
As the night ended, I was constantly being congratulated wherever I went.

There was an after party that we were going to.
I would be going with Dahlia, and everyone that worked with me. Everyone that had been selected for each country would be there.
I was still pretty shakey, still shocked from knowing that I was going to be on eurovision.

We then left..

——————————————————————

As our uber reached the after party, I immediately saw banners over the club doors, that said my name on them.
I was smiling so much, that my mouth was starting to hurt.
It meant so much to me how much I was being supported.

We went into the club, and I was met with my mom and dad.
"Mom!! Dad!!" I yelled, running up to the pair.
I suddenly felt a really safe feeling knowing they were there.

"We're so proud of you, honey!" My dad told me.
"Thank you so much dad.." I replied, hugging him.
"You deserve this! You have been working super hard and we are just so proud of you." My mom joined the hug.
I felt warmth.

"I love you both so much" My voice muffled into my dads shoulder.
"Now go have fun! Not too much fun though!" My dad laughed.
"Very funny dad." I chuckled.

I left, and went to meet Dahlia again.
"How are you feeling then?" She asked me.
"To be honest, I'm really not too sure yet." I looked up at Dahlia, making eye contact with her.

"Has it not hit you yet?" She asked.
"Well- a little." I said.
"You're going to be on eurovision babe." She laughed, putting her hand on mine.

"I wouldn't be here without you Dahlia." I smiled at her.
"Don't say that! Of course you would be!" She looked at me.
I didnt reply.

Each representing country was at a different table.
In the corner of my eye I could see Noa Kirel, and Alessandra.

I was super excited to meet them, so I decided to go over and introduce myself.
Dahlia came with me.

I made my way to the pair.
"Oh my gosh! Eva right?" Alessandra smiled at me.
"Haha, yeah!" I replied.
"Congratulations!" She hugged me.
"Awh- thank you so much." I smiled.

"I cant get your song out of my head." Noa laughed.
We started making conversation.

We all really started to bond, until I got tapped on the shoulder.
I turned, confused on who tapped me.
I then saw a familiar face.
"Bojan?" I said.

I hated him.
And he hated me, as far as I knew.
We had known each other since we were 15.
I had done an exchange year in Slovenia for school.
Me and Bojan got really close, and even started dating, until I found out he asked me out as a 'dare.'
It was all a big lie.
I then moved back to the United Kingdom, and hadn't spoken to him since.

"Well well, Eva Wilde." He said, rolling his eyes at me.
"Piss off." I said sharply.
"Someone's mad." He pouted his lips.

"I'm serious Bojan, fuck off!" I pushed him.
"Are you still mad?" He chuckled.
I ignored him.
"It was 7 years ago Evs, chill out." He said.

"Dont call me that." I turned back round to Noa, Alessandra and Dahlia.
I felt my blood boiling.
He was annoying the fuck out of me and I was so angry.

"You know him?" Alessandra asked me.
"Unfortunately." I rolled my eyes.
"Wow. You seemed pretty mad about it?" Noa asked.
"Yeah." I looked down at the table.
"We don't have to talk about it if you don't want to" Noa assured me, feeling bad.

"Yeah, if that's okay." I replied.
We continued our conversation and went back to normal.

I couldn't get seeing him out of my head.
The way he would tease me.
But the chances of me ever falling for Bojan is the chance of stealing a star from the sky.
