My Mentor *Completed*

Twenty-Three. Fan Mail

(A/N - 23!  This story is moving right along!!  I did have a comment on one of the earlier chapters from a lovely reader asking for maybe some Ziam action and while I don't plan on getting those two into a fling within this story, I might have slipped an awkward bromance moment in this chapter.  Enjoy the Narry!!!  ;)  xx  )

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Monday morning was the second week that all the contestants had to do the video diary things for the fans.  Everyone had a set time throughout the day.  Mine would always be at eight am.  I am a little bothered that I have to get up so early on Monday morning but it is something that I must do for my dream.

The first video diary was kind of awkward.  I really didn’t know what to say.  I pretty much just introduced myself and was told to tell the fans where they can send questions for me.  I also talked about what the contestants’ house was like and so on. It was basically a two minute video of me rambling.  At least this morning I will have some questions that I can answer so I won’t have to come up with things on my own.

I take my place on the stairs and begin recording.

“Hey guys!  This is my video diary, week two.  This past weekend was so amazing.  I was really taken back by all of the applause that I received and very grateful for it and thank you to everyone who voted for me to stay in the competition.  It really means so much and I appreciate it.  A lot.  I was very sorry to see Jenny go.  She was a great girl.  Also all the lads in No Limits were fun to hang around with.  I’ll miss them all.”  I now had to read some questions.

“So I have some questions that some of you had sent in.  The first is from Theresa of Portsmouth and she asks ‘When did you first start singing?  By the way, you are gorgeous’”  I blushed and I am sure it was visible for the camera.

“Thanks, Theresa.  I think I really started singing when I was maybe twelve, not one hundred percent sure but I started playing the guitar first.  I think that was my first love in music, my guitar.”  Next question.  Oh lord.

“Next question is from Adam of Killarny.  Yay Ireland!” I joke and half fist pump.  “His question or questions, I should say are ‘As someone who is gay, I was wondering when did you first know you were gay and what do you look for in a guy and are you single and thank you for being a positive role model for young gay guys.’”  How do I reply?  Truthfully I guess.  Well except for the single question.

“Thanks, Adam.  I guess I really don’t consider myself a role model.  I am just being myself and am true to who I am and I hope that everyone, no matter who they love, can be honest about it.  I realized I was gay when I was thirteen and um….yes…..I’m…single.  What I look for in a guy would be someone that I can hold a conversation with and someone who is kind and a love for music would be a plus.  I also kind of have a weakness for a nice smile and nice eyes”  I move on to the last question.

“So the final question is from Emily of Bristol.  Hello Emily!  Emily asks ‘are you happy you have Harry as a mentor and how is he?’  Yes.  I was really happy when I found out that it would be Harry to mentor the boys.  We can relate to him, I think, because he is young like us and he started out in the music business when he was a teen and I think he has a lot that he can teach us.  He is so talented and I aspire to be as successful as him one day.  He is really great.”  I have to stop myself there because I could go on and on about how great Harry is and I know I would eventually end up blushing at the thoughts of him.

“Well that is all the questions I can do today.  Thank you so much and I’ll see you next week!” I smile brightly and wave to the camera.
