The Chatroom

Chapter 18

It's been a little over a week since I have gone to Panda Express with Hannah. Nothing really exciting happened since then. Louis still hasn't confessed to me about him and Hannah, but I keep having this dream every night that Louis is sneaking out with Hannah and then comes back an hour or so later then goes to his guest room. It keeps happening and I don't know if it's a dream or really happening. I don't want to leave the comfort of my bed every time it happens though. That seems like too much work for me.

Right now I am in my room, on my bed practicing with Niall for The X-Factor. I am singing a song by Paramore called The Only Exception. "Start from the beginning again." Niall told me. I nodded my head as he started playing guitar.

When I was younger I saw my daddy cry 

and curse at the wind. 

He broke his own heart and I watched 

as he tried to reassemble it.

And my momma swore 

that she would never let herself forget. 

And that was the day that I promised 

I'd never sing of love if it does not exist.

But Darling, 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception.

Maybe I know somewhere 

deep in my soul that love never lasts. 

And we've got to find other ways 

to make it alone. 

Keep a straight face. 

And I've always lived like this 

keeping a comfortable distance. 

And up until now I had sworn to myself 

that I'm content with loneliness.

Because none of it was ever worth the risk.

Well you are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception.

I've got a tight grip on reality, 

but I can't let go of what's in front of me here. 

I know you're leaving in the morning 

when you wake up. 

Leave me with some kind of proof its not a dream.

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception.

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception. 

You are the only exception.

I'm on my way to believing 

And I'm on my way to believing."

As I finished singing, I gave Niall a small smile. "Okay, I think that's it...?" He nodded his head, vigorously. I giggled, "When does the audition happen?" "I think we have about another day or two and then I have to fly back to Ireland, and you and LouBear can audition here." "Why are you going back to Ireland?" "Because, I signed up there and that's where they will want me to perform." I nodded my head sadly.
