Secret lover

Chapter 1

School was never easy for me, it was always unpleasant. Everyone knew I wanted to be a singer but they all made fun of my dream. The top girl in the school was Amelia, she was pretty, smart and she had a great voice too but she didn't want to have a career with it, she wanted to be a party girl, hooking up with the lads, getting drunk and having a wild time. She also knocked me down about my voice because she thought she was the best. If anyone ever competed with her she would tear them into shreds.

My favorite band was Take That, u had loved them ever since they started. My mum liked them too but everyone knew in our house I was the biggest fan girl. Even though I am 21. I still live at home considering I've just finished my music degree in college. I am planning on moving out soon just when I save the money up.

This year, the X - Factor auditions are coming up and my best friend Julie thought it would be a great idea for me to enter the competition and share my voice with the world. I'm not too sure that this is a good idea considering my self confidence has been knocked down so much. Talking of Julie she's calling me now.

"Hey Julie, what's up?"

"Hiya, was just wondering if you wanna go ahead with this audition, one in London on the 23rd of May at the O2, what do you say?"

"Oh Julie, I'm not too sure if this is a good idea - I'm sorry. I just don't feel up to it."

"Scarlett you can't allow all these haters to get you down, they are just jealous and they don't want you to achieve a good future."

"I'm not sure.."

"Hey, listen to me, your my best friend. I ain't going to let you turn down a opportunity like this. It's a one in a life time opportunity technically. Please put your worries aside and take this chance."

"Fine."

"Eeekkkkk my bezza is gonna be famous, I'll be straight over love you bye!"

"Jules, wait a min..ute."

By the time I finished the sentence she had already hung up the phone. Guess she is as excited than I should be. But I wasn't. I was actually not happy because I knew I wouldn't get far in this competition.

*knock knock*

"Come in!" I yelled.

"Scarlett it's me, and look what I've the audition form. All you need to do is fill it in now and the audition is in two days time, you need to take this form with you and hand it in on the day. I'll come with you because I don't wanna miss you perform. I'm your biggest fan."

"Awe Jules, don't make me get emotional already. I'm going to end up crying. Your the best person ever to be a part of my life. You are always here for me. I love you so much."

I embraced her into a massive hug.

Two days passed extremely fast. For the last two days I had been rehearsing the song I wanted to sing. Which was rule the world - take that. I was also panicking all weekend because the judges hasn't been announced. They were keeping it a secret and you found out when you entered the room.

Today was the day - 23rd of May... I was petrified. Julie was holding my hand, the whole way to the O2. When we arrived. We were guided towards the table where we enter our forms. I wasn't far back in the queue and once I handed me form in I was told I would be the last person to perform today. So it would be later on tonight.

So me and Jules decided we would just wait patiently in the waiting room considering I didn't want to go anywhere because I was that nervous.

"I'm so scared Jules."

"I know you are, but hey your mum and dad are going to be proud. Have you told them yet?"

"No. My mum and dad are on holiday at the moment in America seeing my gran."

"We'll call them up, and will them. They will be so proud."

Trembling I picked up my phone and dialed my mums number, it took a while before she answered but she did in the end.

"Hey mum, it's me Scarlett."

"Oh hi Scarlett, my baby girl is everything alright? Are you okay?"

"Mum stop panicking, everything is fine. I just have some news to tell you..."

"Oh, go ahead then?"

"Don't be mad at me mum, but I'm auditioning on the XFactor today. I'm hear now with Jules. I'll be performing later on tonight considering I'm the last one to perform."

"Awe Jules, I'm so proud. Make me proud my little star. Good luck. I'll let your dad and gran know. I have to go now, but I love you so much my baby girl!!! I'll be watching."

"Love you to mum, bye."

With that, the call was over. I don't hardly speak to my mum considering she is always busy over there. I do miss her lots. But it's nice having some alone time and having the house to myself.

"So Scarlett what did your mum say?"

"She said that she is proud of me Jules, are you proud of me?"

"Of course I am, I am so proud of you. Your gonna be a star!!"

"Haha! Don't go to far ahead, I haven't even had my audition yet."

Hours later we were still sat here waiting. It's be a long day which has dragged.

"Scarlett how much longer is it gonna take, I'm bored out of my backside."

"Same here."

Couple of minutes later. My name was called.

"Scarlett Brown, please make your way to the addition room."

With that I jumped up and have Jules a hug, before making my way to the auditioning room. On the way I was greeted by Ant and Dec. Dec was so adorable. We had a quick selfie and a small chat before I walked onto stage.

I had just got onto the middle of the stage, when my eyes connected with MARK OWENS!!!!! We stared at each other for a few moments and then he smiled at me and gave me a quick wink.

"Hello, so what's your name?" I look to my left and there was Gary Barlow, Simon Cowell and Louis Walsh!!!

My legs started to tremble then the next minute all I can see was black and darkness.....
