“Hello”
I swear it wasn’t Jayden, he sounded so different.
“Hello” I answered back in a confused voice.
“It’s Trent, how are you?” That explains why it didn’t sound like him.
“Hey, I’m good. What’s up? Why are you ringing from Jayden’s phone?”
“I just wanted to ask if you were coming to the show tonight, if you are you can come backstage with us for a bit. Jayden will love having you there. I think he really likes you, he hasn’t stopped talking about you since he came back”
“Oh wow, yeah sure. He likes me? Nah, it’s only been two days.” I was shocked that Trent would say that, does Jayden actually like me though?
“Yeah he does, I have to go but I’ll see you here at 6?”
“Okay bye” I hung up looked at the clock and didn’t even realize it was 5:08 already so I quickly put some shoes on, grabbed my stuff and went to see them.
I arrived there at 5:48 a bit early but I told the security that Trent said I was allowed back there, he didn’t believe me. Luckily Keeda walked past and said it was all good for me to come inside, if it wasn’t for her I don’t know what would have happened. We were walking back together and I said “Thank you for that” “It’s okay” She replied. We had a nice conversation about the boys walking to the dressing room she is so sweet, Zach is a lucky guy. Anyway we got there and Jayden stood up and said “What are you doing here?” “Trent said it would be okay, wait you didn’t know? He rang me from your phone so I assumed you knew. Do you want me to leave? I can if you want” Maybe he didn’t want me there, I felt so awkward. “No stay, please. I just wished I knew, now I’m more nervous.” He said. I walked up and hugged him and said “More nervous? Am I making you nervous?” “YESS” Will said from across the room and Jayden laughed.
We sat down on the couch and waited, all the contestants came in and out wishing everyone good luck. You could tell everyone was nervous and freaking out. I told Jayden everything will be okay, just like he said to me. He said yeah everything will be okay if you’re here. I did not know how to respond after that, so I just smiled and held his hand. To be honest I had a strong urge to kiss him but we only knew each other for 2 days and maybe he doesn’t like me like that, maybe he just wants to be friends. I knew already that I like him, I know he is someone special.
Julian then rounded all the guys and Ellise, Keeda and I up in a little group. He said no matter what happens tonight, I’m proud of you all. After he spoke all the other guys said something, it was so sweet they really cared about each other and nothing could break them up. We all walked down to the stage then Jayden hugged me I wished him luck and said they will get through then the girls and I walked into the audience. We sat there waiting and waiting for the verdict.
*The next contestant through and is safe for another week is........THE COLLECTIVE!*
Everyone started screaming, we were all so happy for them. The boys jumped up and hugged one another and they ran backstage. A sigh of relief went out, knowing they were safe to sing again. I was so excited I just had to give Jayden a massive hug, so us girls asked if we could go back to see the boys and they let us. Keeda and Ellise kept their cool while I ran up to Jayden and he hugged me and picked me up and spun me around. He put me down and I said “I knew everything would be okay, congratulations” He then hugged me again and just like that he kissed me. It was amazing, actually it was perfect. His soft lips on mine made me the happiest girl alive, I felt him smile as he pulled away and I said “Wow that was...” “Amazing” He finished off my sentence.
We sat around eating some sweets that were there and Jayden and I didn’t really talk much afterwards, I think he was still taking everything on board. But we stayed together on the couch, him holding me, I mean my night couldn’t me better.
So the show now finished and he asked if I was still going with them afterward, I said of course I was. We all got into one massive van out the back and drove off but as we were leaving there were girls everywhere surrounding the van. They were screaming for all the boys, security had to push them back. While we were trying to get out I said “Imagine when you win X Factor there will be thousands of girls” They all laughed and Zach said “Yeah, IF we win”
We finally got on the roads and started driving. Surprisingly we went back to that same beach Jayden and I went earlier, still the weather and atmosphere was nice. We all sat on the beach, got some food and drinks and celebrated. Jayden then asked me to walk with him, so we walked along the beach and we sat back down. I asked “So how does it feel being safe for another week?” ”Amazing, i still can’t believe it” He replied “Well believe it. Can I ask you something?” I said “Sure” He replied. “What are we? I mean we met yesterday, spent all day together and you kissed me tonight” I asked. “You kissed me back too.” He laughed “I don’t know what we are but I like you. You seem different to all the other girls, I would ask you to be my girlfriend but it might be too soon” He then said. “Yeah, I did kiss you as well. Well ask me then, and I’ll give you an answer” I responded. “Okay, Romoney will you be my girlfriend?” He actually asked and it didn’t seem real at all, I still remember saying to my friends I will be his girlfriend some day, but I didn’t think it would be now. “Yes, I will be your girlfriend” That felt so nice but weird to say. We smiled at each other and his smile is perfect. He kissed me and I kissed him back. I was happy, I was happy the ending to my dream was reality.
