What The Heart Wants (Stereo Kicks/ James Graham)

Chapter 15

Once we got to Louis's house, everyone grabbed their things and ran into the house. Before I walked inside, I took a look around and admired where we were. "Pretty incredible isn't it?" I looked over and seen Casey standing next to me admiring the view just as I was. I nodded my head. The wind blew my hair all over the place, and the sun beat down on us, making the cool air from the ocean seem less chilling. "Did you ever think in a million years that you would be here in Bermuda, just a few days away from making the X Factor live shows?" I asked Casey. "No. No way." He shook his head. "I mean, I always knew I wanted to be on the show, but to be put in a group with eight other people is just insane." He went on. "Right? I didn't even know I was going to audition until two weeks ago. And now I'm here." I looked around. "What made you audition?" He looked at me and I thought about it for a second. "I just needed a change of scenery." I finally answered. "Let's go see what room the boys picked out, shall we?" I said, picking up my suitcase and walking inside, Casey following just a few steps behind. When we walked through the doors, I swear my jaw dropped. This was seriously the most beautiful house I had ever seen. There was a long staircase at the other end of the room and I could hear shouts coming from upstairs so Casey and I made our way up the stairs. When we finally made it to the top, we seen Jake run out of one room and into another, and one of the Blonde Electric sisters was running around in her bra, screaming excitedly. I looked back at Casey and he looked just as confused and disgusted as I did. I began walking and eventually found the rest of the boys claiming beds in our room. There were two queen size bunk beds and a single mattress in the room. When the boys noticed Casey and I in the doorway they told us that everyone but Tom had to share a bed. "Wait, why Tom?" I asked. "Because I'm the oldest." Tom smirked. "Yeah, but I'm the only girl. I should get my own bed." I countered. "Too late babe. Dibs." He claimed. I stuck my tongue out and looked at the beds. Charlie and Reece were sharing one, Jake and James were sharing another, Chris and Barclay another, which left..."Looks like we're sharing." Casey smiled and set his bags down. "Looks that way." I set my bags down and looked at James, who was looking back at me apologetically. "Guys, there's a meeting with Louis in five minutes on the beach." One of the twin brothers said from the doorway. "Thanks mate." Jake answered.

"Hello guys. I hope you like what you've seen so far." Louis said. All the acts were gathered in a group on the beach. "As you know, you will be performing for me and my guest judge in just a few days." He continued. "I figure, now's as good a time as any to introduce you to that special judge." He said. "Everyone, please welcome the beautiful Tulisa Contostavlos!" Louis shouted and pointed at the ocean. Out of nowhere, this strange woman began emerging from under the water. She was wearing a white bikini and her hair was long and dark. "Holy shit." Chris whispered in admiration and all the other boys nodded in agreement. They were staring so intently, I swear I had never seen them so focused. I rolled my eyes. Boys. Finally, after Tulip or whatever her name is, was done climbing out of the water in her two sizes too small bikini like an attention whore, Louis introduced her to everyone. After introductions were made, she told us what her and Louis were going to be looking for and she wished us luck. "Starting tomorrow, you will have full access to the vocal coaches who will arrange the music and help you the best they can." Louis said. "The schedule is hanging up inside. Once you're finished with the vocal coach, you're free to do what you like." He finished. We all said our 'thank you's' and 'goodnight's' and all the other groups went back inside. It was still relatively early so the boys and I decided to stay on the beach. At first we just swam around but then they found a soccer ball and began playing. "Aria, what position do you want to play?" James asked and all the guys looked at me. "Uuhh, I'll sit this one out." I answered. "What? Why?" Casey asked this time. "Because I suck at soccer." I said, and all the boys looked at each other, then back at me like I was on drugs. "What the bloody hell is soccer?" Tom asked. I laughed. "Football. It's called soccer in America." I laughed again and a look of understanding finally came across all their faces. "Well fine. But you're playing next game." Casey responded. I sat and watched the boys play for a while before they ended the game. "I'm starved. Let's go get something to eat shall we?" Barclay asked, putting his shirt back on. The boys and I agreed then made our way back to the house to get something to eat.
