Broken (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 5- Come Back

*2 Years later*




It has been a couple years since I spoke to Zayn. At first it was pure hell. It didn't help as I watched his fame rise with the group of boys known as, One Direction. It hurt when I found out he started dating a girl named Perrie Edwards only two weeks after I had left. I didn't hate him though. I actually was really proud of him, and happy that he finally got what he wanted. In all honesty I was just a bit upset that he got everything he wanted after he left me.




Today is the auditions for the X-factor and I intend to try out for them. I always loved to sing and everybody thought I was pretty good. So I decided to go for it. I really wanted to be famous. Partially because I wanted to make it on my own and show Zayn just how strong I could be, and the other part of me really just lived to sing.




Since I'm 18 now I'm able to live on my own and so I bought my own apartment. I woke up extra early this morning, a tad unwillingly might I add, and headed off to my audition.




Once I got there it was jam packed with people who were talented, and then some people who just weird. I try not to judge, but as a woman walks past me with a Katy Perry snow cone bra, I can't help but stifle a laugh along with the girl next to me. Once the woman is out of earshot we turn to each other and burst out laughing. through my fit of giggles I manage to say, "My name... is... Arianna... what is... yours?" I can barely breathe at this point and I've regressed to making no noise and clapping like a seal."




Once she catches her breathe she tells me her name is Anna and that she is a hip-hop dancer and singer. Wow. if you thought that was impressive wait till you see the the other two girls who came rushing to her side an hour later. They all looked like models.




"Where's Sierra?" Anna asked. Her face was full of worry.




The tall girl whose name was, Ashlynn, answered, "She's sick and she puking everywhere so she can't make it. Maybe we should just forget this who-"




"NO!" Anna screamed. "We worked so hard for this we have to do it now or never."




"Well where in the hell are we going to find someone to sing Sierra's solo? I know for a fact none of us can sing those high notes..."




Anna immediately turned to me and I just knew what she was going to say next. "Ummm... Arianna... How how can you sing?"




After a few improvisational rehearsals we didn't sound too bad. We actually sounded pretty good. The other girl in the group, Courtney, helped me with my solo and I really enjoyed the chills that singing with them brought me.




I hadn't felt this great in a long time. I had made three new friends, joined a singing group, and I was minutes away from a huge opportunity in my life. I was so excited that I didn't really pay attention, so when I turned the corner I accidentally ran into somebody spilling coffee all over them and myself. I heard the person curse, and I looked up to apologize, and I froze. It was Zayn. He was standing right in front of me. He had a hoodie covering his head, no doubt to hide from the fan girls, but there was no doubt when our eyes met, I instantly recognized him. Now here's the real kicker... He just walked away. He didn't recognize me! Granted I had changed a lot since we last saw each other. Back then I was skin and bones, now I had curves. I also used to wear contacts but just recently updated to contacts, and I had dyed my strawberry blonde hair to a darker brown. Also my acne cleared up. But I grew up with him; how did he completely forget me in only two years?




I didn't have time to think about it though because I was thrust into a room and forced into a wardrobe change. Immediately after getting changed I got pulled out to the stage.




Wow there are a lot of people here. I can't believe all these judges are in front of me that I grew up loving. We performed and I really got into my solo and even winked at the crowd. I didn't know I had this in me. it's crazy that all of this is happening with seeing Zayn, but being on stage and performing makes me forget and makes everything seem so perfect. I'd be lying if I said I was surprised we got yes' from all the judges because these girls really are amazing.




Later that night we go out to celebrate it and make plans to shop for clothes before heading to L.A. My mind is still reeling from the events that transpired within the past 24 hours but nobody can take this from me, not even Zayn. I'm on my way to making it big. After everything I've been through in my life, I am ready to take control of my life and I'm ready to make a comeback.
