Chapter 2

Chapter 2

I got out of the shower and changed into a nice white top, a dark pair of jeans and white Toms. I walked over to Erica's bathroom to see how she was doing. I knocked on the door and she appeared in front of me in a beautiful blue, purple and grey tank top with a grey cardigan. She was wearing dark blue ripped jeans and black boots. On her neck was a beautiful black and silver flower necklace and a rose gold wire bracelet.

"Hey, Beth!" she exclaimed when she opened the door. 

"Hey, gorgeous," I answered. "What are you going to do with your hair?"

"I was thinking about curling it..." She said hesitantly.

"I can curl it for you," I offered.

"That would be great, thanks. By the way, you look gorgeous," she returned the compliment from before. 

"Well, thanks," I said happily. 

After about 45 minutes of working on Erica's hair, we were ready to go. Niall came to the door to get us. I could tell he was nervous because he was shaking. I looked at him at just gave him a sympathetic hug. I didn't know what else to do. We stood there holding eachother for a minute cause all I wanted to do was be there for him. I could feel his tense body in my arms. 

"You're going to do fine," I assured Niall while we were in line at the auditions.

"Thanks, B. I'm just scared. What if they say no?"

"Don't worry about that. Just do your best," I was trying my hardest to comfort my best friend.

"Can we have Niall Horan to the stage please?" A lady's voice boomed through the speakers. 

"You're going to do awesome, Ni." Erica and I hugged him quickly before he ran on stage. 

I stood there admiring my best friend's voice that I had been listening to for the past few years. It has only gotten better. He was having an amazing performance. It was like angels in my ears. I smiled from ear to ear during his entire performance. 

He ran off the stage after singing So Sick by Ne-Yo with 3 yes-es and an acceptance to the next audition. I was the first one he hugged. 

 "I TOLD YOU THAT YOU COULD DO IT!" I yelled, bursting with excitement. 

 "Thanks Beth! And thanks Erica for you guys coming to support me."

"I'm so proud of you!" His mom was also there along with Greg and Niall's dad, finally got to hug him.

"Thanks, Mum. How about some Nandos to celebrate?!" We all cheered.

"Right after the rest of these auditions!" Maura added. 

We stood there to watch the rest of the auditions and there were 4 other boys that caught my eye. I couldn't remember all of their names. I'm pretty sure one of them was Louis... he had the cutest hair cut and a pretty cute voice too. The other one was Liam I'm pretty sure. He had kind of curly hair and a beautiful voice. The next one had super curly hair and the nicest green eyes I have ever seen in my life. That one was Harry I'm pretty sure. And the last one was... Zayn? I think. He looked like a little rebel but I kind of liked his style. I stood there holding Niall's waist as he held mine. Erica was on my right watching everybody closely. 

I could see that she had her eye on this one boy in particular. Liam. She watched him and I'm about 99.9% sure that I saw a twinkle in her eye and a little bit of a smirk on her face. I nudged her, wiggled my eyebrows and smiled. She shot me back a dirty look and kicked me in the back of my knee causing my knee to buckle. I heard an evil chuckle come out of her mouth as I kicked her back and watched her knee buckle. I laughed at the karma. 

Niall looked at the two of us and shook his head, "why am I friends with you guys?" he chuckled. We laughed and asked ourselves the same thing. I could tell Niall was starting to get hungry and I was too. We took off to Nando's to celebrate.
