Flaws (Mark Owen Fanfic)

Chapter 2

'Oh my God', I whispered, as I felt my legs begin to shake.

'Hello', he smiled up at me, extending his hand to meet mine, 'It's lovely to meet you Cora.'

'Y-you too', I nodded, as I shook his hand.

'Cora, Mark is on holidays here at the moment', my mother explained as I continued to stare at the biggest crush of my life.

'Yes and I heard about the competition', Mark explained, taking over from my mother, 'Cora, you have a fantastic voice!'

I stood there, unresponsive. Was I dreaming?

'Uh, thank you', I gasped, eventually, 'Thank you so much.'

'I'm definitely going to have to tell Gaz that he has some serious competition for singing 'Patience'',Mark replied, flashing his infamous smile.

'Gary Barlow?', I asked, knowing that my eyes were bugging out of my head.

'Uh-huh',Mark replied, laughing at my reaction, 'Anyway, is there somewhere more private that we can talk? I need to ask you something.'

'Uh', I said, 'You could come back to our house?'

'That sounds good', Mark smiled, before turning to my mother and father, 'Is that okay with you?'

'Of course, it's no problem', my mother replied.

'I just have to say goodbye to Lisa and Eric', I said, 'I'll be back in two minutes!'

I ran down the hall to my two friends and gasped, 'Lads you'll never guess! Mark Owen is here AND HE WANTS TO TALK TO ME! HE WANTS TO ASK ME SOMETHING!'

'We met him before you won', Lisa laughed, 'When they were counting the votes.'

'I can't believe it!', I replied, as they laughed at me, 'Okay, I need to go. I'll see you guys soon.'

After hugging them both I said my goodbyes and went back to my parents and Mark.

'Ready to go?', my mother asked, as she picked up her jacket.

'Yep', I nodded excitedly, making Mark smile, 'Let's go.'

With that we made our way out of the hall, and began walking home.Thankfully, it was a short walk and we were soon there.

'You have a beautiful home', Mark complimented as he walked into our home.

'Thank you Mark', my mother replied, and you could tell that she was as excited as me, 'Cor, why don't you show Mark into the living room?'

'Of course', I nodded, before leading the way into the small living room, with Mark directly behind me.

'Would you like a cup of tea or coffee?', my father asked him, when we were all in the small room.

'No thank you', he replied, as he sat down on the couch, 'I won't be able to stay long. So, Cora I wanted to ask you something.'

'Yes?', I asked, as I sat down on the couch opposite him.

'Well, as you might know, the boys and I are going on tour later this year',Mark began.

'We already have tickets', I beamed, cutting him off in the process, 'It should be an amazing show.'

'Hopefully', Mark nodded, before growing serious again, 'Well, after hearing you sing tonight I can see how talented you are. So, how would you like to be our support act?'

The room fell silent as we all came to terms with what he had just asked me. My idol had just asked me to support him on tour, was I dreaming?

Hey guys,

I'm sorry that this chapter is a little short, but I promise the next one won't be.

So who else pre-ordered the boy's new album? I can't wait for it! 'Hey Boy' is class!

Thanks for reading!

Love,

Lauren
