From Marcel to Harry

Going Places

Marcel/Harry POV

I think i have found out why this happened to me. It helped me discover something. Not someone, but something. A talent I posess, but never knew existed until now. Will wanted to form a band, but he didn't have a singer. He asked me to do it, but i don't sing. Or at least, i thought I didn't. I gave it a go, mainly to shut up Will, but my voice is marvelous. Will described it as "A gift." This is so amazing. It's so much fun doing this. We've sang at a wedding and everyone applauded! There were no rude comments or anything! Anytime I've ever done anything in front of an audience I have been ridiculed and emotionally attacked. I can't wait to do something like this again. My birthday is in a couple months and for the first time, I'm excited for it. Before it has just been a meaningless marking of the passage of time, but now I have friends to celebrate with, something to do at the party. I've never had friends; not true ones anyway. People used to pretend to be my friend, so i would help with their homework, but no one ever liked me, for me. I always thought people said, "Don't change for anyone," but changing has helped a lot in my case. I even have a sort-of girlfriend. Life is good, all around. I never understood what it was to be truly happy. I thought I was happy with my grades and awards, but having friends is so much better. Yes, school is important, but school isn't life. Make sure to do your best, but don't forget everything else in life. I've got band practice now, so I'll write later okay?

Janet/Gemma POV

Mum has the best surpise planned for Marcel. As this is his first birthday as Harry, Mum wants to make it special. She's auditioning him for X Factor! He's brilliant at singing, so I'm sure he will at leats go to Boot Camp! Honestly, I'm loving life as Gemma. I'm still making good grades and all aspects of my life are turning out to be the best they've ever been. I'm really surprised how well Marcel is doing as Harry. He's becoming funnier, less geekier and more popular. I can't wait until his audition though. Hope he does well!
