So this is a fanfic I wrote back in 2011/2012 and it was a hit on Tumblr and so I decided to share it here on Wattpad as well. I hope you guys enjoy and since it was written around 2011/2012 some of the things that go on in the fanfic are like old jokes that the fandom used to have and stuff. So yeah! Enjoy!

 Chapter 1

“You had a lot of crooks tryin’ to steal your heart…”

                I reached over to my cellphone to check out whom texted me, it was the first day of summer and I was ecstatic because Uncle Simon was coming over from the UK to San Diego to visit. Most of my friends were away for the summer and I was stuck here alone. It was Uncle Simon who texted. The text read,

                “I’m coming really soon, just givin you a heads up. See you in a bit Channel.”

                Simon Cowell wasn’t of course my real uncle, he was more of a family friend in which I grew up to know as my uncle, my family was really close to the entertainment business which is why they were partners with him. My parents were away for the summer to take care of all that business crap that I never fully understood. They decided to leave me here so I could accommodate Uncle Simon since he only knew is way around LA.

                I stood up from the bed and looked in the mirror.

                “Oh damn, I look like a hell of a mess.” I looked at my appearance. I was of Asian descent. I had long black hair, big brown eyes, and I was really short. Well enough about the insecurities, I scurried to the bathroom to get myself ready, it was already 12 and I slept in once again. I brushed my teeth, and then hopped in the shower. I started belting out the song Grenade which was my ultimate shower song.

                “I’D CATCH A GREANNNAADE FOR YAAAA THR-“I was then interrupted by constant ringing of the door bell.

                “Ugh, who the fuck is that….” I quickly got out of the shower and but a robe on. I went ninja mode and went to my window to check who it was. I saw a stretched limo outside of my house.

                “Oh crap, Uncle Simon’s here.” I said in horror. The door bell rang again.  “JUST A MINUTE!” I yelled at the top of my lungs. I threw on a pair of jeans, my Hollister top, and a pair of Toms then pulled my hair in a bun.

                I ran down stairs, nearly tripping, but I made it eventually to the door and opened the door. I then saw 5 tall, very attractive boys standing in front of me. My eyes widened.

                “Uhmmm may I help you boys?” I asked.

                Then Uncle Simon made his way to me. The boys were still staring at me and I was staring at each one of them, I couldn’t keep my eyes of them, they were super yummy eye candy.

                “Channel! Good to see you again,” Simon said while reaching for a hug, I hugged him back, it was so good to see him again but I was wondering who those boys were.

                “It’s really good to see you again too Uncle Simon.” I was still looking at the boys because I was just so confused with what was going on. Uncle Simon could probably tell from the expression that I had on my face.

                “Oh yes, uhmm Channel, I forgot to mention to you that I brought along these fine lads with me, they are working for my label and I guess your parents didn’t get the chance to tell you since it was on such short notice. Sorry for the hassle dear.”

                “It’s alright Uncle, I was just a bit stunned.” I replied with a smile. The boys were giggling for some reason. Ugh. Boys, you’ll just never understand them.  “Come on in everyone.”
