When Lauren checks her phone at around 3pm a few days after you two talked, she sees a dm from you.

Thatonekid
I failed

LaurenJauregui
What?

Thatonekid
The test.
I failed it
Really badly.

LaurenJauregui
It can't have been that bad.

Thatonekid
I spent a week studying and got 15.

LaurenJauregui
Out of?

Thatonekid
75

LaurenJauregui
It gives you more room to improve.
I wouldn't look at it as failing, but more as not doing as good as you can.
You did the best you could on that test and i assume, you answered every question.

Thatonekid
Thanks.
I never normally get under 60 in any tests.

LaurenJauregui
Like i said, more room for improvement.
Dont put yourself down because of that.

Thatonekid
I really appreciate that.
When people found out what i got they were surprised because i always get highest in the class.

LaurenJauregui
If anybody says anything to take the piss, ignore them.

Thatonekid
Nobody dare say anything to me.
Last time someone pissed me off i put em in the hospital.
Not on purpose.

LaurenJauregui
You sound like someone who isn't to be fucked around with.

Thatonekid
I'm not.
I didnt do it on purpose tho.
I got angry because the teacher yelled at me and some kid took the piss out of me.

LaurenJauregui
What'd you do?

Thatonekid
Punched them so hard their jaw broke.
Then i slammed them into my locker and banged their head against it.

LaurenJauregui
Damn

Thatonekid
I felt awful about it.
I did apologise.
They forgave me but seemed terrified.

LaurenJauregui
Not going to lie, i would be terrified too

"Y/N!" Callie shouts

"WHAT?!"

No answer.

Thatonekid
Brb.
Sister wants my attention

You put your phone down and go downstairs.

"Fuck you want?" You ask.

"Y/n." Your mom says.

"What?"

"That language is unacceptable."

"What do you want then Callie?"

"Me and mom are off to the shop. Want anything?"

"3 cans of monster and 2 cans of red bull."

"Y/n. You're not allowed that."

"Why cos i have adhd and it effects me badly?"

"Yeah." Your mom says.

You roll your eyes.

"You can have a few bottle of coke or pepsi but that's about it." She says.

You groan and go upstairs.

LaurenJauregui
I hope it's interesting.

Thatonekid
It wasn't.
Callie asked me if i wanted anything and i asked for a few cans of monster and red bull
Mom said no cos i have adhd and it effects me.

LaurenJauregui
She'll just be looking out for you is all.
Dont let it anger you.
Hang on, you have adhd?

Thatonekid
I thought i told you?

LaurenJauregui
No?

Thatonekid
Wow. Okay.
That's weird. I coulda sworn i told you.

LaurenJauregui
It's okay.
I'm glad you told me.

You and Lauren text a little longer before Lauren has to go record a song with the girls.

Thatonekid
I look forward to hearing the song :)

LaurenJauregui
You're so sweet.
Talk to you later.

You and Lauren say the goodbyes and stop talking. Callie and your mom walk back into the house. Callie throws you the 3 bottles of pepsi you're allowed. You chill and watch a few films. Before you go to sleep, something outside catches your attention and then you cant go to sleep. You end up watching YouTube and falling asleep.

The next morning, you wake up to your alarm.

"Will you fuck off?!" You shout at it.

You turn off the alarm and get changed. Then you go downstairs.

"Y/n you gotta head off quickly. You're gunna be late." Callie says.

"You gotta drive me."

"Drive yourself."

"Dumbass, i dont have my own car yet." You say.

"Fine." Callie says.

You and Callie get into her car and she drops you at school. You're not doing to good. When you get to your locker, your phone rings.

"Hello?"

"Hello. Is this Y/n Y/l/n?"

"Yeah. Who is this?"

"I work for Simon Cowell. Recently, there's been a video of you on the internet that caught his attention."

"As in the Simon Cowell that owns Syco?"

"Yeah."

"How did he see this video?" You ask.

"It blew up on YouTube and Twitter. He asked me to call you to see if you would like to talk to him."

"When?" You ask.

"Whenever is best for you."

"Would tonight at around 4pm work?" You ask.

"Yes that would work perfectly."

"Amazing. See you then."

After school, you get an uber to Syco enterprises.

"Hello. How may i help?"

"Yeah i have a 4 o'clock interview with Simon Cowell. Y/n Y/l/n?"

"Ah. Yes. You can go up now."

Hehe. Things be taking off already. Lmao anyway. Byeeeeee :)
