Mahira started a band at 12 years old, dreaming of being a lead singer. Fallen Angels, she called it, inspired by the Mortal Instruments series that she swore by. However, when thoughts became reality, she declined and opted to be the backup singer. Four years later, the spot for lead singer opens up again, and 'mysterious new boy' auditions for the role. After winning the battle of the bands for the first time, they decide to audition for the Xfactor. Nothing goes to plan from there...
"Finally, the last to go through to the semi-finals is a group I put together. Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson."
My ears strained to hear if there were any more names, but hesitant applause erupted from all the disappointed contestants. Was I one of them? I desperately looked over to Harry, only to discover that the rest of the boys were looking at me in concern. My face felt as if it was drenched in gasoline and set alight, making me happy that my blush is nonexistent. With his usual swagger, Harry approached Salmon Cowbell (simon cowell) with a glare that could make me willingly hurl myself off a cliff.
"Sorry to interrupt, but I would like to forfeit," he said, clasping his hands behind his back politely.
My eyes widened at his request. We, or they, I should say now, had made it too far for him to stupidly go and drag the whole band down. Taking in whatever confidence had built up in me the last month, I made my way over to the two. I lightly grabbed his arm, too frustrated to think about the whole 'being awkward around him' thing that I had going on recently.
"Harry, what are you doing," I whispered between gritted teeth.
"It's unfair," he said in his usual slow drawl, "You were the one that got us this far."
"I. Don't. Care." I breathed, though I knew in the back of my head that this was the end of Fallen Angels. And it seems it was the beginning of 'One Direction'.
please read besties I worked so hard :)
