I Wanna Be Famous (Book 1)[Slow Updates]

Day 2 of Bootcamp

Ana's Point of View

I got up the next day, still exhausted but ready to go to bootcamp. I got up and dressed casually since I had vocal practice that day and that didn't really involve anything to physical. The rest of the gang insisted on coming too so I let them. They hadn't managed to get me kicked of The X Factor yet, so I figured they wouldn't today either.

We all piled into Shelby's truck and drove back to the X Factor building where we were split into groups like we had the day before but this time Harry escorted the group I was in to the vocals room. When my group got to the vocals room, I saw Niall sitting there with his guitar in hand, strumming away softly, his fingers moving expertly over the strings. I knew how to play the guitar, but certainly not as good as Niall did. I also knew how to play the piano. My mom had put me in lessons when I was in second grade. At first I had hated it but after a time I started to like going to piano lessons. When my parents stopped caring about me, they stopped paying for my lessons so I had to scrimp and save to be able to pay for them. After a while though, I didn't need lessons anymore and I just bought sheet music or printed it off the internet and figured it out myself on our old worn out, out of tune piano.

I sat down on one of the uncomfortable chairs they typically used in schools and waited for instructions. After a while, Harry cleared his throat and called for our attention.

"Ok," He said, holding a clipboard like Liam had been the day before. "If I call your name, I would like you to go with Niall to see how well you play the instruments you claim to play." He finished and started to call out people's names.

I didn't really pay attention. I was kind of in my own little world until Harry called out my name. I walked over to where Niall was standing like the rest of them and waited until Harry was done.

When everyone that was called was around Niall, he beckoned us to follow him. We did and he led us to a large room with a variety of different instruments everywhere.

"Ok, all of you claim to play the guitar. Let's see if you all were telling the truth. Just grab a guitar and find a seat then I'll tell you what to do." He said, sitting down himself and starting to strum away on his guitar again.

I found a guitar and chose a seat as Niall had instructed. When I was done I took the time to look at the people around me. The boy sitting to the left of me had dreads and some crazy gauges why the girl sitting to my right wore way to much makeup for my liking. The boy sitting next to Niall looked a bit like a nerd which was fine with me. The girl sitting on the opposite side wore a slutty outfit that showed way to much and she was trying to flirt with him. Niall was just tuning his guitar casually, obviously not listening to her.

Once we were all seated, Niall grabbed a stack of papers and started to hand one to each person.

Now, if you can really play the guitar, this should be fairly easy for you. You will all play it at the same time and I'll watch." He said, handing out the last sheet of paper and returning to his seat.

I looked down at the paper and smiled, recognizing the song immediately. It was the chorus to Jason Mraz's 'I'm Yours'. I already knew how to play the song so this would be easy for me.

In reality, the song was just the same four chords over and over again, C, G, A minor, F, C, G, A minor, F, over and over again.

"Ok, let's begin." Said Niall, and he put down his guitar so he could watch the rest of us play.

I looked at the paper and put my fingers in the right position and started to play. It was just the same chords over and over again, C, G, A minor, F, C, G, A minor, F.

Halfway through the song I noticed that some peple were falling behind. This included the girl that was sitting next to Niall, the one who tried to flirt with him. She had obviously lied and said she could play guitar to help her get on to the X-Factor. She was going to get kicked off right after bootcamp, guaranteed.

Once we were finished, we all put down our guitars and watched as Niall wrote something down on a clipboard. After a few minutes he stood up and walked to the other side of the room.

"Ok, now I'm going to split you all up into groups based on your abilities with a guitar." He said and started to direct people to certain spots in the room. He put me in the group with the hippy that had sat next to me, the girl that sat on the other side, the boy who had been sitting next to Niall, and a few others.

After a few minutes, Niall came over to our group and gave us a few songs to play together. As he handed one to me, he winked at me, almost seductively and to be honest, it was working.

After we finished, Niall dismissed us and we gathered pur stuff and I started to walk away when someone grabbed arm. I turned around to see Niall with a sheepish smile on his face.

"Um, nice guitar guitar playing out there. I really appreciate a good guitar player." He said, scratching the back of his head nervously.

I smirked a bit and answered back with a quick "Gracias" knowing Niall would get it instantly and I walked off feeling accomplished.

Just before I walked out the door, I looked back to see Niall with a wild grin on his face, looking like he had just received his letter from Hogwarts.(a/n: Sorry, the nerds coming out in me ;)

I walked put of the door, knowing I was going make it through bootcamp and pass with flying colors.
