Just The Underdog (Niall Horan)

chapter 18

the car ride was quiet besides the sound of the music playing quietly, "guys about 10 minuets till we get there" my mom said looking in the mirror to see us. I instantly stiffened I was so nervous I just wanted to jump out of the car and run away. "Niall your gonna do great don't worry babe" Emma said looking up at me with her beautiful eyes full of comfort and support. I simply smiled, "thanks" was all I could say. as I looked out the window my mind started to wander and I began thinking of all the possibilities of what could happen, what if u don't make it and make a huge fool out of myself? what if I fall in front of the judges? what if I do make it but then wake up and this is a dream! I quickly pinch myself to make sure it isn't, but worst of all, what if I make it and me and Emma don't last? I was snapped out of my thoughts when my mums voice became clear "Niall, are u listening?" "umm, non sorry what did u say mum?" I asked looking up "we are almost there so when we get there we are taking our things to the hotel we are staying in for the night then we will head down to the X-Factor studio, sound good?" she asked "yeah " I shook my head and looked down at Emma who had her head on my lap I ran my fingers through her hair, she looked up at my and smiled. I returned the smile and bended down to give her a kiss. we intertwined our fingers together and rested them on her tummy, "we are here!" my mom said stopping the car in front of a nice hotel. me and Emma jumped out of the car grabbed our stuff and ran inside as quick as we could. we got to the front desk and waited for my mother to get our room keys. once we got it we an too our rooms, we all had separate rooms because they were very small. once we got settled in we met up and headed for my audition, I was so nervous I could barley breath. the car ride was like torture I couldn't keep still my nerves were getting the best of me. Emma put her hand on my lap And looked at me "babe you will do great just relax" I shook my head and trued to relax...that is until we got there. I stepped out of the car and got into the line of people waiting to get there audition numbers. it took about an hour until I was in the building and another hour before my audition but the second they called my number I froze. I couldn't move! "Niall babe that's you, go one we will be right here I promise" Emma said giving me a kiss and pushing me off towards the stage.
