A love like War.//Stereo Kicks ~Reece Bibby.

XIII//tonight

At around 6pm, everyone went off to go and get ready for the ball. Syco had provided us all with our own outfits, and I was in love with mine. It was a silver shimmery dress, with a baggy turtle neck and a slit to the middle of my thigh on the side of the dress. I had a shower and then put my dress on, taking a few selfies. I loved it.
"I'm jealous, you look so good" Safia joined in a mirror selfie with me. I turned around and looked at her.
"So do you, hottie" I said. Her dress was a black shimmery dress, the arms were off shoulder and it had a small trail. Her shoes were some black suede peep toe heels, mine were same but silver leather.

We went to the back room where we got our hair and makeup done. Again, In love. My hair was in one of those 1940's headwrap plaits, and I had a small sequin flower in the front. My makeup was a black shimmery fading eyeshadow, and the eyeliner was like cat eyes. I had on a plum lipstick and a slight bronze on my cheekbones. The amount of selfies I took was unbelievable. Safia had on a gold shimmer eyeshadow and her eyeliner was done exactly the same as mine, with a dark brown lipstick. Her hair was up in a ponytail plait.

Once all of us got our makeup and hair done, we got into a separate limo. For whatever reason, we weren't allowed to see the boys until we got to the hall. We we're in there for about 20 minutes, before arriving at a hamptons hotel. The interior was lighting up a golden colour, and that was when they decided to tell us that we got one free night to stay here. We were all buzzing. Me, Safia and Fleur got out of the right side, and Lauren, Betsy and Parisa got out of the left. I turned around and on the opposite side of the drive i saw reece, standing there in a satin black tuxedo. His hair was combed upwards, looking fluffy and shiny. Even from where I was standing, I could see his emerald orbs staring deep into mine. I felt a push and it was Fleur.
"Come on girly! I know they're all looking banging but you'll see them in a minute" she smiled, hooking my arm and walking towards the entrance. That's one thing I loved about Fleur, she was always happy, making others happy too. Never had I ever felt down around her.

We finally got to the hall, where there were strobe lights, a bar, tables and a dance floor. In the corner was a dj, and soon enough the whole floor filled up.
"Right guys, you need to match yourself up with someone for this dance. It's a slow one!" The dj screamed out of the microphone. Fuck, who was I supposed to dance with? I walked anxiously over to reece, who was looking the other way.
"I would, but-" he stopped, and in came Parisa. Was there something about OTY that he seemed to like, cause I wasn't getting it. I smiled and walked away, bumping into Charlie (jones).
"Ah, just who I was looking for" he said, offering me his hand. I took it and we begun to dance around the hall.
"You spoken to reece?" He asked me, spinning me and leaning back, making me laugh.
"I asked him to dance but he was with Parisa so it backfired a little" I replied. He held me a bit closer, putting his chin on the top of his head. He had on on some lynx aftershave, it smelt so good.
"Don't worry, it'll get better" he said to me. I smiled to myself, since my head was more or less in his chest.
"You smell really good Charlie" I lifted my head up and gave him a shocked look. He winked
"I know, turns out it's Reece's as well, he wears it a lot." He told me. That made me even more attracted to him, good looking, nice, and smells fucking amazing - what more is there to ask for?
The dance finished, and we went and sat down at the tables. I sat with Charlie, and soon enough reece and Parisa joined in.
"Finally found you" reece hugged Charlie, giving me a whiff of the aftershave. God, he smelt good. He looked at me and strained a smile before sitting down next to Charlie.
"Are we eating here?" I asked, Parisa nodded.
"I think that's why we're sitting down now, I'm starving" she tapped my arm and laughed. I smiled at her. To be fair, I preferred her than Betsy, she seemed so much more like a real person.

The food plates came over, and we realised it was a buffet. Our table went first, I picked out mac and cheese and fries first. The drink selection was at the end, and I picked a sprite. I sat back at my seat and begun to eat, and someone sat beside me. There arm was over my shoulder, and I immediately thought it was Charlie.
"Charlie, you know I'm into reece-" I looked and realised it was reece himself. He looked at me shocked.
"I'm into you too" he said, kissing me quickly, right in the corner of my mouth, fucking tease. He moved back to his seat and Charlie and Parisa say back down, oblivious to what had happened. The rest of the meal I kept quiet, just watching reece. When he smiled, spoke, looked confused, shocked, excited, angry. All were cute; like himself. I couldn't take my eyes away.
"Madi, you ok?" Parisa asked me. I watched how Reece's eyes darted straight to mine, and I looked away.
"Oh yeah, I'm a bit tired to be fair" I rubbed my eyes, realising a load of makeup was on it. I looked at reece who have me a big grin. I looked down and wiped it away.
"I'll take her to bed" Charlie said, standing up and holding my back. I smiled and said goodnight to them both,looking back at reece who winked at me.

"I'll see you later, yeah?" Charlie hugged me. I smiled and nodded. I went into the room and got changed, getting into bed. It took me about 5 minutes before I fell asleep, I didn't realise I was so tired.
