I woke up what sounded like a plate smashing the next morning. The morning of the filming of the video for 'Can We Dance' I looked at my phone which read 7:45, we only had 15 minuets before the car was coming to pick up! I turned around to see Con, who was still fast asleep.
"CONNOR SAMUEL JOHN BALL!" I shouted in his ear
"Muuummmm, I'm trying to sleep!" He groaned taking a pillow and putting it over his ear
"Oh my god Con it's Grace! Just hurry the fuck up because your filming your music video today!" I shouted at him making him sit up straight
"I called you mum?" He asked rubbing his face with his hands
"Yes, yes you did. Now can you you please hurry up because we need to leave the apartments in ten minutes." I said jumping out of my bed and rooting through my draws to find a pair of lounging pants and a top I got from a swimming meet once. Connor somehow picked himself up out of bed, and began to get changed into a pile of clean clothes that he had brought into my room the previous night.
I gathered up everything I needed and walked into the bathroom which was across the hall, wanting privacy to get dressed for once. I pulled on my trousers before putting on a clean bra and my t-shirt. 'Where the fuck was my tooth brush?' I thought to myself looking around to bathroom to discover where I must have hidden it. Soon enough I found my tooth brush which I had put in the bathroom cabinet behind all of my other things.
After I was dressed and ready I went back through into the bedroom to collect my phone and put my dirty clothes away. I pulled on a pair of socks, quickly tied up my hair into a messy bun and ran into the living room where everyone else was stood waiting for me. It was five to eight, I was hurried to the front door where I pulled on one of my only pair of vans, blue ones to be exact, and ran down the corridor of our building, my friends all surrounding me as we reached the lift.
We all managed to squeeze into the lift, unbelievably, which I think maybe made it reach the ground floor quicker, due to the increased weight, as we were soon stood outside with one minuet to spare.
"Did you have a good night?" I asked Emily as we stood on the side of the road waiting for any sign of a large car
"Yeh," she giggled "it was amazing."
"You seem...uh...different, are you okay?" I asked genuinely concerned for my friend who was acting unusually girly
"I'm all good, I'm just, you know, happy." She grinned looking towards Brad who grinned back to her looking equally as chuffed
"Oh, okay." I laughed
"It's here!" James squealed like a five year old boy reviving the 'Hot Wheels' he wanted for Christmas
We all got into the extremely large car and began to be driven to an 'unknown destination' as I was told. Everyone was feeling the same way about today, I could tell. We sat in silence for the whole journey, the radio blaring away in the background attempting to make everyone less nervous.
The driver sooner than everyone was hoping pulled up out side of a large, red brick house. We all looked to each other, the boys obviously understanding what was going on while the rest of us had no clue. The boys clambered out of the car first, the girls and I soon followed hitting the stoney ground and we stepped out of the car.
"Hi guys," Joe approached us grinning "looking forwards to today?"
"I'm shitting it!" Brad blurted out making us all laugh in agreement
"You guys are going to be fine! Girls if you want to go over there to Jemma, she'll do your hair, make up, help you pick out what clothes you want blah blah blah." He said pointing towards a pretty blonde girl who was stood looking extremely bored outside of the house, we nodded and nervously made our way to Jemma
