Chapter 3: Girl on Fire
Jade's POV
London was amazing! I was really enjoying just being able to relax and do what I wanted for once. I had my phone number changed so my "parents" and "brother" couldn't find me. Ever since being here I hadn't been on any social media. I was having too much fun sightseeing. Earlier at the mall I heard a song that I really wanted to do a cover for. It was Girl on Fire by Alicia Keys. I had heard the song before, but now that I had taken control of my life it had new meaning to me. When I got back to my dorm room I quickly changed my clothes and grabbed my video camera and student id. I needed the id to get into the recording rooms in the art building. When I got over there I quickly found an unoccupied room and locked myself in. I adjusted the switches on the control board until they were what I wanted. I set the song so it would play on the screen. After recording the song I quickly uploaded it to YouTube. I glanced at my follows and views and almost fell out of my chair! I had over 5million followers and over 7million views! How did I become so popular? I quickly logged onto Instagram. I posted a quick pic of the recording room and wrote a caption that said: Yay! Put new cover up! I now have over 5million followers and over 7million views! Thanks to all of you who support me! Luv ya Jade<3
After putting up the pic I got bombarded by notifications from people. They all had the same hashtag: #FindJade. They all said things along the same lines: Jade please tell us where you are. Or Jade they are looking for you please tell them where you are. I was so confused. Who was looking for me? Was it my "family"? I was scared. I had thousands of people that said they were looking for me but I didn't know who they was. I was too afraid it was my "family" to find out. Instead I ran back to my dorm and locked myself in. I only left to go to work. I had gotten a job at the campus coffee shop, and thanks to it being summer still there weren't very many people on campus. So for now I had a very little chance of being recognized.
Demi's POV
I was so excited! We had soooo many people looking for her. Louis had a genius idea of creating a hashtag. Now we have thousands of fans looking for her. Her followers and views on YouTube had skyrocketed. She now had over 5million followers and over 7million views. She was going to notice sooner or later and when she did we were going to find her.
Harry Styles' POV
We were looking everywhere for her. The lads and I were racking our brains trying to figure out where else she could be. Then it suddenly came to me. "Hey," I yelled. "What," they all said popping up from their various positions as we were all spread out all over the living room. "Demi said she just graduated from high school right," I asked. "Yeah, she graduated early," clarified Liam. "Wouldn't she be going to college soon," I asked. "I think you are on to something," exclaimed Louis
Louis' POV
Harry was onto something. Jade would be in college now and if she had left early she would have to have a place to stay. "We should check all of the colleges around here. She is probably staying in the dorms or apartments near the campus," I observed. "We should split up and hit the different colleges," said Liam taking charge. "Louis you go to University of London, Harry go to Imperial College London, Zayn go to City University London, Niall go to University of Westminster, and I'll go to London Metropolitan University," Liam ordered. We all ran off to our cars to get busy. I drove over to U of L. I was glad Liam gave me University of London. Some of my friends were students here. I knew they would help me. As soon as I got there I ran to the administrative office. My old friend Stan worked there. "Hey Stan," I said when I saw him. "Hey Lou. What's up," he asked surprised to see me. "I need a favor," I said. "Sure, what do you need," he said. I quickly explained about Jade and while I was explaining I realized that I was falling for this girl. I didn't just want to find her for Demi and Selena. I wanted to find her because I was falling in love with her. I had no idea who she was though. "No prob. I'll check now," Stan commented. After a second he said," Bingo! Here she is. Jade Livingston, she is staying in Dorm 3 room 322." "Thank you so much I owe you," I exclaimed before running out the door. I sent a message to the group as I searched for her dorm building. As soon as I found it I ran up to room 322. I knocked on the door. [A/N: The colleges mentioned are real colleges in London. I googled. :)]
Ooh cliffhanger! Did Louis find the right Jade Livingston? What's going to happen next? I enjoy hearing from all of you so please comment and vote. If you have a suggestion please tell me. I may or may not use them. If you want a dedication just let me know. Luv ya Beka <3
