“Forgive me for what I have done ‘cos I’m young, yeah, I’m young,” – Jaymi began to sing as him and the rest of the Union J boys were stood on the edge of the stage walk-way.
“Forgive me for what I have done,” Jahmene continued. “’cos I’m young, yes, I’m young.”
“I don’t mean to frighten you off. It’s just fun. It’s just fun,” Rylan grinned.
“I don’t mean to frighten you off. It’s just fun. It’s just fun,” Christopher sang.
“We live on the edge of life. We don’t even compromise. We rush because we’re out of time,” I sang as I was stood on the main stage by myself.
“Forgive us for what we have done ‘cos we are, we are, we are young,” we all sang as everyone came to join me on the main stage. “I said forgive us for what we have done ‘cos we are, we are, we are young.”
“I’ll make mistakes that I’ll learn from, ‘cos I’m young, yeah, I am young,” I sang with Union J as J and Jaymi stood one side of me and George and Josh stood the other side of me.
“I’m sorry I’m not even done, ‘cos I’m young, yeah, I’m young,” James sang in his unique style as he walked through the doors behind us.
“I don’t mean to frighten you off. It’s just fun. It’s just fun,” Rylan sang.
“I’ll scream at the top of my lungs. It’s just fun. It’s just fun,” Josh sang as he stood next to me.
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,” we all shouted as the music began to become upbeat.
“Forgive us for what we have done, ‘cos we are, we are, we are young,” we all sang, standing in a line on stage. “I said forgive us for what we have done, ‘cos we are, we are, we are young.”
As I began to walk down the walk-way of the stage, everyone followed. “Forgive us for what we have done, ‘cos we are, we are, we are young,” we continued. “I said forgive us for what we have done, ‘cos we are, we are, we are young.”
Once the music finished, all the audience began cheering. Looking out at the audience, I had to take a moment to realise that there was only six of us left in the competition and come next week, five would be left. Glancing down at the other contestants, I sighed to myself, trying to stop myself from getting emotional as I realised we’d be losing a contestant tonight.

As we all sat in the rehearsal room on the sofas, we watched Olly perform ‘Troublemaker’. Within seconds of the show rolling to a break, Rylan turned around to me and George. “Talking of troublemakers, what was going on between you two last night after the Xtra Factor?” he asked.
I looked at George, who looked back at me. “What?” I asked, pretending to not know what Rylan was on about.
“You had an argument, didn’t you?”
“Erm..” I looked at George. “Kinda.”
“They’re sorted out now,” Josh said, trying to take the awkwardness away from the conversation.
“You two can’t argue anymore, okay?” Rylan laughed. “Or Uncle Rylan will have to bang your heads together.”
“Don’t worry. They’ve already done that,” Jaymi whispered to JJ but it was loud enough for both me and George to hear.
We both gave him a death stare. “Whoa, if looks could kill..” JJ laughed.
“I hope you two didn’t just imply what I think you implied,” Rylan said, looking at JJ and Jaymi in shock.
