I cannot belive it. He was singing isnt she lovely by stevie wonder. That was Chichi's favorite song. The last song me and Harry ever sung together. The last song i ever sung, period. He was on that stage, belting out those words. He voice sounded so good, projecting outwards from that microphone. I couldn't handle it anymore. I turned around and darted to the bathroom.
When I was leaving someone was standing outside the bathroom. They grabbed me by my shoulders and spun my around.
"Tyra, Im so sorry. I didn't think you would hit you that hard. I'm so very sorry love." It was Harry. I wanted to ask him how his audition went. But all I could manage to let out was;
"it's alright." I turned around and started walking back to where his family was. He grabbed my hand, and intertwined his fingers with mine. We walked back together. Harry was crying. but I didn't know if it was because of Chichi or his audition. I decided I would just wait and see what happens.
When we got back to where everyone was, everyone was smiling and cheery. But they saw me crying and they stopped. Gemma stepped towards me.
"Are you okay" She started rubbing my back.
"yeah, I'm fine." I said giving her a half hearted smile. Then I noticed, I never let go of Harry's hand. I turned to him and smiled.
"So did chichi work wonders?"
"you know it. They all said yes!" My jaw dropped.
"i knew you could do it. See I told you. I freaking told you." I jumped on him and he caught my legs as i wrapped them around his waist. I squeezed his next and started crying again. I was so happy for him. We left for the car holding hands and skipping like we were 5 again. It felt so good being with him. I genuanally loved this kid. Like, everything about him.

I didn't see Harry much the next couple of weeks. He called me when he could, and texted me goodnight everynight, but he didn't have time with the x-factor and his new friends I guess. He called me randomly one day. I was with my cousins, but I knew I had to answer.
"Hello?"
"Hi, uh..uhm. I got booted off."
"oh no , harry i'm so sorry."
"wait hold on. Theyre calling me back on stage, i'll leave the phone on so you can hear what's happening."
"okay."
In the background , i heard 5 boys names, and four girls names. Then I heard Nicole from the pussy cat dolls speak.
"You guys weren't strong enough as a solo, so we decided to keep you guys as two seperate bands. You guys get to stay."
I could hear Harry and some other people screaming. I decided to just wait.
"Ty, did you hear that. I can stay, they're giving me another chance!"
"Well that's great Curls , but i have to go. Text me before you go to bed. I miss you."
"I miss you too..." There was silence, than the phone cut off.
Great. Even Longer that I was going to have to go without seeing him. But little did I know, that was just the beginning.
