Competition- X Factor 2016

Chapter 24

Katie's POV

Wednesday, next day

Emily, Gifty and I waited in our room for Roman to come and record us. Minutes later he did.

"Hi girls, ready?" He asked. We all nodded and stood up. He's basically going to be interviewing us.

"Welcome back, I'm Roman kemp and right now I'm join my the girls category in the x factor house!" He said to the camera. Us girls said hi to Roman as he faced us.

"So Gifty, we all know how much of a fashionista you can be. But what we all want to know, is how many clothes have you brought with you?" He asked. Emily and I laughed as we walked to our walk in wardrobe.

"Let me help you...this side, Katie and I share. This side is aaalllll Gifty" Emily laughed.

"Next question" Roman laughed.

"Katie, who's the messiest?" He asked already knowing the answer.

"Well when I'm doing my make up I practically sprawl it out all over the floor so I guess me" I laughed.

He then asked Emily a question. I didn't pay attention after that. I stared at Roman.

Looking into his eyes I saw he was still hurt. Don't get me wrong I am too but I know I'm getting over him. Somehow he's managed to not only break my heart but it see,s as if he broke his own as well.

I suddenly didn't feel in the mood anymore, as a matter of fact I just wanted to cry to myself as I nought about what I did wrong in my relationship with Roman to make him want to talk to his ex and spend less time with me.

"Katie, you coming?" Gifty asked as her and Emily stood in the doorway. I didn't even realise Roman had left.

"Umm yea...I'll be down in a moment" I hesitated. They left the room and I sighed. I stood in front of the mirror and wanted to cry. Who am I?

I finally got the courage to walk downstairs. Everyone was in the living room talking and I stood in the doorway. Freddy was first to notice me.

"There you are! Come on, we're gonna watch a movie" he said excitedly. Everyone was staring at me confused as I stayed frozen in my spot. I looked at everyone, Matt last. Matt.

I let my brain take control and I ran back upstairs to my room, slamming the door shut. I let the tears fall as I stood in the middle of the room, confused with my sudden emotions.

Seconds later the door flew open revealing a worried Matt. He closed the door behind him and engulfed me into a huge hug.

"What's wrong?" He whispered. I let myself calm down. I gently took his hand in mine and walked over to the mirror I looked in earlier. He stood behind me as I stared at myself.

"...I keep letting my thoughts distract me. Take control of me. Effect me. Every time I see Roman, so many questions race through my head. Why did he feel the need to talk to his ex? Was I that bad of a girlfriend? Why would anyone ever love me...my mum and brothers don't believe in me. My dads fiancé hates me. I'm ugly. Stupid. Pathetic....
I met Roman and he made me feel like such a princess. He treated me with respect. He made me love him. But as soon as he changed the love went. But I realised I was so into having a relationship with him as I never had one before, that I didn't even notice I didn't fall in love with him. I loved him as a person and that was all. But he still managed to break my heart. Matt, you've been so great to me. You've been there when I needed it the most, you make me feel special. But, even though we are taking things slow, I fear that I'm going to break your heart one day and I know you've been through that before....I don't want that to happen to you again." I cried looking at him through the reflection.

A single tear rolled down his cheek as he stepped closer to me, wrapping his arms around my waist.

"Roman was the luckiest guy in the world to have you in his life. He ruined it. How could he ever let you go? You're the sweetest girl I've ever met, you're stunning and bubbly. Never say bad things about yourself. Taking things slow is good for us, Katie. It will work out I promise." He told me. Tears fell down both of our cheeks as we stayed the way we were. I finally turned around to face him.

He leaned in and gently pressed his lips against mine. The kiss lasted about 10 seconds. When we broke apart we wiped our tears and he took my hand in his.

"Come on" he whispered leading me downstairs.

We reached the living room doorway and freddy raced towards me.

"Are you okay? What did I say wrong?" He worried.

"Oh no, freddy it wasn't you. I promise" I said letting go of matts hand and pulling freddy into a tight hug. When we let go relley spoke up.

"We were worried there" she said.

"Yea, we hate to see you upset" Kieran said.

I smiled and sat down with Matt and freddy. We began to watch the movie.

Being here a week and a Half and these guys already feel like my family. I love this.
I know I can trust these guys with any thing and I'm so great full.
