After arriving at school and getting my schedule, I go to my first class, which is music. I hear a beautiful voice, and look over to the sound and discover its this beautiful boy with straight brown hair, somewhat like Justin Bieber's, and he is singing.

And I know someday that it'll all turn out

You'll make me work, so we can work to work it out

And I promise you, kid, that I give so much more than I get

I just haven't met you yet

I noticed that there's a blonde kid strumming a guitar and two other people are humming along to the songs.

I might have to wait, I'll never give up

I guess it's half timing, and the other half's luck

Wherever you are, whenever it's right

You'll come out of nowhere and into my life

And I know that we can be so amazing

And, baby, your love is gonna change me

And now I can see every possibility

I couldn't help myself, so I joined in and started singing.

And someday I know it'll all turn out

And I'll work to work it out

Promise you, kid, I'll give more than I get

Than I get, than I get, than I get

Oh, you know it'll all turn out

And you'll make me work so we can work to work it out

And I promise you kid to give so much more than I get

Yeah, I just haven't met you yet

"Kids, this is a new exchange student, Zayn Malik! Zayn, I'm Mr. Cowell."

"Hi." I say, and sit down in the chair next to Liam, since it's the only one available.

"Now, I want everyone to make groups of five and find a song that manages to suit all of you. You will perform it in front of the class, so make sure it's good. If you need any help, just ask. Now get started!" I look around, but I really want to partner up with that kid- man I don't even know his name!

"Zayn, want to partner up with us?" I look over to see that it's him asking me.

"Um...I-I-Sure." He probably thinks I'm a freak now.

"Thank you. You have a beautiful voice." He smiled a warm hearted smile, and it's breath-taking. So I smiled back, hoping that he would think the same of me. Too bad I'm ugly, and defiantly not breath-taking.

"I'm Liam," the boy with the Justin Bieber hair tells me.

"I'm Niall!" the blonde, who was playing the guitar, says.

"And I'm Louis, that's Harry." he points to the one with he curly hair and Harry waves and greets me.

"Well, I'm obviously Zayn." I chuckle.

"So.. Do you guys have any ideas in mind?" Niall asks, and we all shake our head. "Then let's ask Simon." I look at him confused.

"Who's Simon?"

"Oh, we call Mr. Cowell, Simon. MR. COWELL!"

"Just not to his face," Liam mutters.

Simon comes over, and pulls an extra chair over to so in front of us. "What is it boys?"

"We have absolutely no idea what to sing." Harry says.

Simon goes over to his desk and grabs an iPod, then comes to sit down with us again.

"I'm just going to click shuffle and what ever we decide is the best, you will do." He presses the button and the first song that comes on is 'If You Seek Amy' by Britney Spears.

"No." Louis laughs.

With that, Simon clicked next. 'Nothing' by The Script. We shook our heads. It's a great song, but not for this project. 'What Makes You Beautiful' came on and we all laughed, until we were literally clenching our stomachs.

"Defiantly not." I breathe out. "I hate that song... So overplayed."

Simon clicked the button once again, and 'Airplanes" came on.

"I love this song!" I exclaim, "But I think we should pick something else." everyone agreed, so we played so much different songs until one came on. 'Torn' by Natalie Imbruglia came on. We all gave each other a knowing look, and without further explanation, we gave Simon a nod.

"Okay lads, figure out you're parts and what not." since Niall, Louis and I have some sort of stage fright, we decided to give Harry and Liam most of the parts, and I was more of a backup voice. Not that I minded. Tomorrow is the day we are going to perform this to Simon and a guest, then he will video tape it an decide who and who not he is going to show to the rest of the school.

Until then, school awaits.
