Affection (One Direction)

Mean

Emerald's POV

Me and the girls still can't believe what all happened yesterday, the other day, and today. We're here in the studio with Simon Cowell. 'This is going to be fun!' I thought but I was wrong. The boys are also going to watch us sing. Why are they here anyways? Especially that rude curly guy! Just hearing or saying his names make me mad.

Suddenly, Mylene snapped her fingers in front of my face.

"What?" , I asks.

"Am I talking to the wind?" , she said, her left eyebrow raised.

"I'm sorry. What were you saying?" , I quizzed.

"I said, get ready! We'll be starting!"

"What song are we going to sing anyways?" , Ryla asks.

"How about Mean?" , I questioned.

"Yeah, that will be great." , she smiled.

(A/N: I know, Mean is Taylor Swift's song. xD But it's only in the story! XD)

Simon clapped his hands. Signaling us to get ready. Mylene took the guitar as we sat on the chair. We girls exhanged looks, and we all nodded.

Mylene started strumming and I sang...

You, with your words like knives and swords and weapons that you use against me

You have knocked me off my feet again got me feeling like I'm nothing

You, with your voice like nails on a chalkboard, calling me out when I'm wounded

You, pickin' on the weaker man

Mylene sang next:

Well you can take me down with just one single blow

But you don't know, what you don't know

And we all sang the chorus:

Someday I'll be living in a big old city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

We started clapping our hand for the interlude. And she continued strumming. Simon was smiling and the boys' eyes widened. What's their problem?

Ryla sang the second verse:

You, with your switching sides and your walk-by lies and your humiliation

You, have pointed out my flaws again as if I don't already see them

I'll walk with my head down trying to block you out 'cause I'll never impress you

I just wanna feel okay again

I sang next:

I'll bet you got pushed around, somebody made you cold

But the cycle ends right now 'cause you can't lead me down that road

And you don't know what you don't know

And the chorus again. We all sang it together:

Someday I'll be living in a big old city

And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Someday I'll be big enough so you can't hit me
