More than Expected

Just the Beginning

Bella's POV

It took about 15 minutes to get to Syco Records. I thought I was completely confident and would walk in there with a smile on my face, but when I pulled into a parking spot I had a nervous feeling in my stomach. I couldn't get myself to get out of my car.

I finally got out and took deep breaths. When I got in there I was greeted by a woman named Lindsey, she told me that Simon would be a few moments and I should wait in the waiting room.

As I sat down I noticed that there were a lot of pictures of bands and singers on the wall. Wow I didn't realize he signed so many people. I saw One Direction, I'm pretty sure they are the ones Jess sometimes talks about. Emblem 3 was up there too. I recognized them from the X-Factor.

Then I got to thinking about how many people applied for this job. I mean who wouldn't want to be the assistant of Simon Cowell. That's when the nerves came back. My thoughts were interrupted by Lindsey saying that Simon was ready. This is it. It's now or never.

I walked in to Simon's office. It wasn't as intimidating as I thought it would be. It put me at ease.

"Hello, You must be Isabella Green." He said in his thick accent.

"Yep that's me, uh sir." I said sort of hesitantly.

"Please call me Simon." He said very nonchalantly.

"Okay." I said with a smile evident on my face. Simon returned the smile and with that I found myself more comfortable than with any other job interview before. After that, he asked me a few questions.

Harry's POV

The lads and I were in the recording studio. We were recording "Over Again".

"With a tight grip then my kiss can mend your broken heart, I might miss everything you said to me. And I can lend you broken parts that might fit like this, and I would give you all my heart so we can start it all over again." We all sang in unison.

"Can we take the same road two days in the same clothes and I know just what you'll say if I can make all this pain go. Can we stop this for a minute, you know I can tell that your heart isn't in it or with-" I sang. At the end I went to go look at Louis because he had his solo next, and I saw her. Damn she's hot. Where did she come from? Do you think she will like me? What do I do? All these questions were running through my mind.

"Harry, What happened?" Liam asked. I couldn't even say anything. I just pointed at her.

"Damn she is fine." Zayn said with a laugh.

"I call her." I said kind of defensively.

"Harry, I was just kidding." Zayn said with a confused look on his face, "I have a girlfriend."

"I know, I'm sorry. I have just never seen someone so beautiful. Just tell me what I need to do." I sighed, "I need to get her attention."

"Well you look fine. So this is what your going to do..." Louis started to explain.

Bella's POV

I walked out of Simon's office with a smile on my face. I felt pretty confident. I was smiling at the ground when I walked into something and fell down. When I looked up I saw a guy.

"Oh, I am so sorry. I am Harry by the way." He said while sticking his hand out to help me get up.

"It's fine. I am Isabella but my friends call me Bella." I said while taking his hand. Wow he is pretty strong.

"No, it's not ok," he said with a thinking face, "Here. How about I make it up to you. Maybe we can hang out sometime?"

"Ok that sounds-," I started before my face lit up, "Aren't you from One Direction?" I asked, almost laughing that I didn't realize earlier.

"Yes, yes I am love. The rest of the lads are hiding under that window trying to spy on me." Harry said loudly. I'm assuming so the others could hear him.

"We are not!" Niall said while popping up.

I cocked my eyebrow at him before saying, "You tried getting my attention by knocking me down with your strong muscles?" I said while trying to look mad.

"Wow I'm surprised you didn't figure that out sooner. Don't try to look mad. Wait, you think I have strong muscles?" Harry asked with a smile.

"Well, I mean, yeah." I said with a blush.

"Thank you, so why don't you give you number and maybe we can hang out sometime." Harry said once again.

"I would love that." I said while writing my number on his hand. He wrote his on mine.

"I'll text you." I smiled and he turned to walk back into the room. All of a sudden all five of them erupted in cheers! "Its not sound proof!" I yelled with a laugh and they stopped but once I rounded the corner it started again. I'm pretty sure I would be able to get along with them.
