The Beginning 

I was actually here at the X Factor auditions it was crazy. I didn't know what was happening I was all alone. I looked across and I was standing on the X Factor stage. I looked around the huge audience to see if I could see anyone I knew and then I just froze. I didn't know what to do. I looked to my right and i saw this tall Geordie bloke known as Ant with his mate Dec they were both moving in a motion were you could tell they were telling you to speak to one of them but I didn't. My legs started shaking violently and I couldn't control them. I had butterflies in my tummy and I was positive I was going to throw up. Then I heard a little sweet Geordie voice.

" Whats your name love ? "

Oh my god Cheryl Cole was talking to me. What am i suppose to say I don't know. I was making a fool out of myself before I was going to start. I managed to force a few words out of me.

" My name is John Jones, Cheryl."

" What are you going to be singing today for us lovely?"

" Just the way you are by Bruno Mars."

"Ohh for anyone special?" Louis asked me.

"No not yet, I'm hoping one day though."

" Okay John, whenever you'rer ready"

I took a deep breath and turned to looked at Ant and Dec and signaled for them to start the backing track.

As the track started I felt some what more confident; I raised the microphone to my lips and started singing.

Oh, her eyes, her eyes

Make the stars look like they're not shinin'

Her hair, her hair

Falls perfectly without her trying

She's so beautiful

And I tell her everyday

 I looked up into the crowd and saw everyone cheering for that small section. This gave me the confidence to then carry on with the rest.

When I see your face

There's not a thing that I would change

'Cause you're amazing

Just the way you are

And when you smile

The whole world stops and stares for a while

'Cause girl you're amazing

Just the way you are

Once I finished the song I looked at Simon Cowell for approval and he seemed quite happy with how I had done. There was a huge roar from the crowd shouting out my name. All these claps and cheers where for me and only me I am so proud of myself I created these cheers with me singing. Once the audience finished cheering.

" WOW you are amazing" Dani said still shocked of my voice . All of the other judges agreed but when it came to Simon Cowell he said somethings a bit more differently.

"Well John, you did okay, but whats so different about you? How will you make more money than other male artists?"

"Um I would try harder than any other artists I, ...." The 2 women judges and probably half the women in the concert hall aw'ed

"I'm sorry that's not really good enough, that's why I'm saying no. Danni?" The whole stadium shook with the boo's from the audience

"Yes!"

"Urrgg, Louis?" Simon said glancing at the man at the opposite end of the table.

"Yes, Cheryl?"

"YES!" My ears started aching with the amount of cheers people were giving me; I was overwhelmed

"Okay you're through to the next round." Simon sighed.

"Thank you so much, you wont regret this!" I said as I walked off stage.

I ran of the stage and the first person I thought about was my mum I needed to ring her. I got my blackberry out and I saw my Adele wallpaper and that got me distracted then I came back down to earth and rang her.

" Hi mum I just finished audition on the X Factor "

" And what happened " in her very sweet voice

" I GOT THROUGH"

" AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I'm so proud of you John I knew you could do it "

" Thank you mum I just need sometime on my own to take it all in ok ?

" Ok John love you"

"Love you too Mum"

I drove home back to my flat and it still hasn't sunk in that I have actually got through to the X Factor sat on my broken sofa that had a spring coming out of it. I turned on my ancient T.V that may as well of being from the 1920's. I turned on the music channel and my favourite artist came on Adele. I looked around my flat and all of my fifty Adele posters all stared at me. My favourite poster has to be her with her hand covering her one eye with her hand. She looked so beautiful. I sat on the sofa listened to Someone Like You which was playing and then stood up and turned my T.V off. I looked around and I thought I need to change my life. If I win this I could get so much money I could buy a new sofa , maybe even meet Adele...
