Harper's Pov

After finally exiting my room I go downstairs and see that almost everyone's here.

"Hola amigos,"
I say

"Hola, no sabia que podias hablar español,"
Enda answers me

"Woah, don't Spanish me that much,"
I say laughing slightly

"I knew you didn't speak Spanish.
Your pronunciation is horrible,"
He says

"It's not that bad,"
I say and everyone just laughs

"So, what are we doing here?"
I ask

"Nothing, today really is a boring day,"
Amanda says

"Yeah, gonna be a sad one too since one of us is leaving,"
Joseph adds

"Be happy that won't be you,"
Adam says

"And what makes you so sure about that?"
Joseph asks him

"The judges loved your performance.
You got a standing ovation,"
Adam answers Joseph

"That doesn't necessarily mean that I'm gonna get through. I mean it's the votes that count,"
Joseph explains

"Yeah, people can be stupid sometimes,"
Reece says walking into the room

"They really can, you remember last year when that amazing group got out because they didn't have enough votes.
Even the judges were shocked,"
Lesley says

"Let's just hope they got smarter over the year,"
I say and everyone nods

"So, what's for breakfast?
I mean I'm hungr-"
Reece starts to say but is cut off by Anna

"Food's ready!"

×××××

"Welcome to the second episode of the one, the only, THE X-FACTOR!
Today it's not gonna be a fun one since one of our contestants will be leaving the show,"
The host says

"Who would be leaving was up to all of you. But now I am sorry to say that the vote is closed. Now let's call all of our contestants on stage and tell them who will we going in the head to head,"
He continues and we all walk on stage

"Here they are now let me tell you that in no particular order the first contestant to go through is..."

"... 5nation!"

The girls squeal and hug each other before going backstage.

"Congratualations girls. Now the second person to go through is..."

"...Joseph!"

Joseph looks pleased and calmly gets off stage.

"The third person to get through is..."

"...Sam!"

Sam quickly hugs us with a big smile on her face and says

"Don't worry, you're gonna get through.
I believe in you guys,"

And then she walks away

"I know all of you are dying to know if you'll get through or not but before I tell you that we're gonna take a short brake,"
The host says leaving us all depressed

××××

After a short brake which turned to be a whole ten minutes we're finally back on stage to get know if we're getting through or not.

"The tension is real right now so without further ado let me tell you that the fourth person to go through to the next live shows is..."

"...Anna!"

Even though he didn't call my name I'm happy that Anna's going through.
Before leaving the stage she gives us all a tight hug.

"The fifth person to go through is..."

"...Dennis!"

Dennis gives us all a nod and then gets off stage.

"The sixth person to get through is..."

"...Reece!"

Reece does something that looks a bit like a happy dance and then gets off stage.

"The seventh lucky person to get through is..."

"...Lesley!"

Lesley jumps onto me almost making me fall.

"Congratulations,"
I say and smile at her

"Thanks, don't stress too much.
Okay?"
She says and I nod

"The eighth person to get through is..."

"...Noah!"

Noah smiles at all of us and gets off stage.

"Sorry to all the contestants left but you'll have to wait a little longer because now it's time for the performance of one of our very special guests. Ladies and gentlemen please welcome on stage, the one the only
James Arthur!"

After the performance my heart starts beating very loudly because I realise that only two more people can get through without going in the head to head.

"Now, the ninth person to go through is..."

"...Harper!"

The moment I hear my name I start jumping around and making very weird noises. I give everyone that's left a quick hug and then go backstage.

I did it.

×××××

In the end it's Chris and Cole, and Xtravaganza that are going in the head to head. I gotta admit, I did not see that coming. This is gonna be one interesting head to head.

First performing are Chris and Cole who sing easier by 5sos

When they're done Xtravaganza directly hit the stage to perform royals by Lorde

When they're done I can feel the nervousness in the air.
I have no idea who's gonna get through.
It's all up to the judges now.

"Nick who are you putting through to the next round?"
The host asks

"You were both amazing. This is a very hard decision but the performance I'm putting through is Chris and Cole,"

"Rita?"
The host asks

"As Nick said this is a very hard decision and it breaks my heart to see one of you leave the competition so soon but the performance I'm putting through is Xtravaganza."

"Simon, the name of the act your putting through?"

"I still don't believe that both of you are in the head to heads and if it were up to me I would put both of you through but unfortunately I can't do that. Sorry Xtravaganza but the act I'm putting through is Chris and Cole."

"Cheryl?"

"Man I hate to be the deciding vote.
I love both of you I mean your both different and it's very hard to choose but the act I'm putting through is Xtravaganza."
