Adam's POV:

The week went by pretty quick. We had non-stop rehearsals, interviews, and we had to get our outfit and makeup ready. It was pretty fun; Kris and I hung out more than we usually did, but we didn't see Allie and Jade as much as we saw each other. The girls would have to go to a private room with no boys when getting their outfits fitted and well chosen, which took a while. It was the day before the show, and we were going to head out and see which group we were in. We got to the front of the line and got assigned a number. After we all got it we shared them with each other.

"Well I got group 2." I said.
"Same here." Allison yelled, as usual.
"Dido." Kris said.
"Well unlike you guys, I got group number 3. But look at the bright side." Jade said and we all looked confused, what could the bright side be? We all wanted to be in the same group!
"And what would that be?" I asked in a flirty tone.
"Well, now, we might all go to the top 12. If we were in the same group only 3 of us would make it." She said and we nodded.
"True that!" Allie yelled again. Boy that girl was active!

After a week, it was time for group 2 to perform. We didn't get to see Jade that day, but she told us that she would miss us and hugged all of us. We would be able to see her next week in the group 3 eliminations. All the groups would have to go to different houses and stay there until the top 12 were chosen. Even after our eliminations, the three that made it would stay in the house. Last week, Michael Sarver made it through. So did this girl called Alexis, and for some reason, I never felt comfortable next to her. She would always flirt with me for some reason, was I really that attractive? And sadly that last guy that made it through was that jerk Danny Gokey. That guy has been bugging Jade all month! He has been flirting with her and trying to get her to kiss him too! The nerve of that guy! And as strange as it may seem, Jade didn't really let him get to her, she obviously got annoyed, but I seemed more annoyed than her. I was actually jealous!

Finally, it was the moment we've all been waiting for. It was time for us to perform. First up was Jasmine, then Matt, then Jeanine, then Nick, or Norman. Finally it was Allie's turn. She sang Alone by Heart. It was awesome and the judges agreed with me! She is bound to make it through! Right after Allison, it was Kris, he sang Man in the Mirror by Michael Jackson. I thought it was incredible! And again, the judges agreed, Simon even said that the ladies will like him, and like I said before, he is pretty attractive. Anyway, next was Meagan, then another Matt. Next were Jesse, Kai, and Mishavonna. Finally, it was my turn, I was shaking like crazy! I had no idea it would be this hard! I got on the stage and sang my heart out. This was going to be my only chance to impress the judges and America at the same time. I finished singing (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction by Rolling Stones and the judges thankfully liked it. Simon said that parts of it were bad and parts were good, but at least he said the last note was amazing. After the show, we all headed to our rooms and went straight to bed, even me!

We woke up the next morning and got to the dressing rooms. It was the day of the results and we were all nervous. Only three of us could make it through and everyone in our group was so talented. At around 7:30, we headed to the show and got all of our outfits on. We got on stage and took our seats. Ryan gave that speech he always give's, and we did our group performance and that got us all to calm down a little. Finally, it was time for the results. Ryan called up Allison, Jesse, and Matt up on stage and he announced who made it.

"Allison," he said and she looked at him, "you made it through to the top 12." And with those words everyone in the area was yelling and cheering for Allie. We were all so happy for her and she made her way to Danny, Alexis, and Michael who were sitting in their seats.

"Meagan, Kris, Jeanine and Matt." Ryan said and those people made their way to the center stage. I gave Kris thumbs up and he smiled. Ryan then sent Matt and Jeanine back to their spots since they didn't make it and then it was either Kris or Meagan.
"Meagan," he said and just like Allison, she looked at him, "You did not make it through, which means Kris did." He said and everyone again cheered. Before it was my turn to find out my fate, Kris said that Brooke White would perform and then there was a break.

"Adam, Nick, Jasmine, Mishavonna and Kai please come to the center stage." Ryan announced and we all walked up to the stage. Ryan announced that it was either me or Nick, and to my surprise, it was me. I ran over and hugged Allie and Kris, and before I knew it, the night was over. I got so many calls from my family and friends congratulating me, but the one call I really wanted, never came.

'Ring! Ring! Ring!' My phone rang right before I was going to turn the lights off in my room and get some sleep. I rushed over to my phone and hoped that it was the person I was expecting.

"Hey Adam!" Jade yelled. Guess I was right.
"Took you long enough to call, don't you think." I said and I could tell that she rolled her eyes.
"Well I'm sorry, but I was busy and they didn't me use my phone."
"In that case, I forgive you." I said.
"Anyway… CONGRADULATIONS!" she yelled and I was forced to move the phone from my ear to prevent losing my hearing.
"Thanks. Now all you have to do is do good tomorrow and I won't have to live with 24/7 crying."
"Aw, your saying that if I didn't make it you would start to cry." She said in a baby tone.
"Actually, I was talking about Allie," she giggled, "but I guess that I would be sad."
"Well, I got to get to bed now, tell Kris and Allison I said congrats, okay?" she said.
"Yeah well, I have to get to bed too. See ya soon." I said and yawned.
"Bye." She said and closed her phone. I put the phone down and closed the lights. I was a lot more relaxed after talking to her.

"See you soon Jade." I said to myself and closed my eyes.

Jade's POV:

Today was the day. It's been a long hard week and it was finally time for my group to perform. I was really excited. Not only was I going to perform for the first time to win America's votes, but I was also going to be able to see Adam tomorrow in the result show. After calling a few people up, it was finally my turn to perform.

"And here is Jade singing Please Don't Leave Me by Pink. Didn't really think anyone was going to sing a song by Pink, but on with the show!" Ryan announced and I heard the applause. I was also surprised to see that there were some girls yelling. I got on stage when the music started and sang my heart out. I finished the song, and again, there was an applause and lots of yelling! I even looked down and saw this guy whistling. Then I looked towards the judges when it was time to be, well judged.

"Yo Dog!" Randy said to quite down the crowd. "That was the bomb tonight!" he yelled and I perked up, I could barely hear the crowd cheering! "I loved it!" he yelled and I looked towards Kara to see her comment.
"Yeah! I agree with Randy! That was awesome." She said and then I turned to Paula who was giving me a standing ovation.
"What can I say? You rocked the house tonight. You could sing the phonebook and make it sound good." She said and I laughed. It was finally the moment I was waiting for, Simon.
"You know Jade, I actually quite like you, and I think that was a good song choice. It was a risk and that is what we want you guys to do. You were the first to do that tonight. Congratulations, and I hope we see you in the top 12." He said and I was surprised. I thought that I did well, but I didn't know that the judges would ALL agree with me. Especially Simon, since he was a real critic and stuff. Ryan made his way to the stage and put his hand on my shoulder.
"Well Jade, you got good reviews from all judges and I bet you're feeling great!" he said.
"Sure am!" I yelled.
"Well if you would like to vote for Jade, here are the numbers." Ryan said and gave them. I felt incredible!

The night was over quickly and I was soon home reading tons of messages and answering lots of calls I got from my friends and family. Adam then rushed to my mind, he didn't call yet. He was probably busy so I just let it slide, but as soon as I put down my phone I heard the song Crush by David Archuleta ring and I knew it was him.
"Hey Adam!" I yelled still perky from the good reviews I got.
"Hey Jade! Congrats today! You did awesome, and I guess I'll see you tomorrow?" he said.
"Thanks, and see you soon, I'm going to get some rest, big day tomorrow!" I yelled.
"Yeah well bye." He said and shut the phone. I put my phone down and fell right to sleep.

I woke up the next morning and headed to the area. The day went by pretty fast; I finally got to see Adam, Allie, and Kris too.
"Jade!" Allie yelled and ran right over the second she saw me. I could barley breath from how tight she was hugging me.
"Long time no see!" I managed to choke out, she noticed that she was literally killing me and let go.
"Sorry, I just missed you a lot." She said smiling.
"It's alright." I said and looked around the room hoping to find the guys.
"If you're looking for the guys there right there." Allie said not pointing anywhere, but I still felt two people hugging me.
"Hey Jade, you miss me." I heard the one and only, Adam say, Kris had a smug look on his face.
"How could I not?! Don't worry Kris, I didn't forget you." I said and Adam looked even more satisfied.

After catching up for a few minutes, the show started and it was time for the eliminations. I got on stage and performed the group song, then after a 'short' brake, it was time for the results. Ryan announced that two guys named Scott and Jorge made it through, and it was my turn to find out my fate. I was asked up on stage and before I knew it, I was the last one out of my group still on the stage, and I had made it through. I could barley breath, but apparently I could sing. I was asked to sing Please Don't Leave Me by Pink one more time before joining the other top 12 contestants it their area. I hugged all of them, including sadly, Danny, and thankfully, Adam.

"I knew you could do it." Adam whispered in my ears while I hugged him.
"Dido." I said before letting go and we both received big smiles from each other.

"I can't believe we all made it!" Allison yelled while Adam, Kris, and I all walked behind the overactive teenager.
"I know Allison, we heard you say that… 32 times." Kris said getting pissed.
"I know…" she said finally calming down, or so I thought, "But I just can't believe that we all made it!" she yelled, again.
"33 times." Kris mumbled and Adam and I laughed.
"Well anyway, I'm just glad that were all going to be able to see each other again." I said to keep Allie from saying it again, and again, and again.
"Same here." Adam said, and for some reason Kris and Allie both rolled their eyes. "Um, what's up with the eye rolling?" Adam asked.
"Oh I don't know, it's just that you guys always seem to agree with each other." Kris said and Allison nodded. I blushed and when I looked over at Adam, he gave Kris a death glare. "Just saying." Kris said putting his hands up in defeat.
"Yeah well anyway, here is my room, good night guys." Adam said and entered his room. We eventually all found our rooms and went to sleep. We had all made it through, just like Allison wouldn't stop saying, and we were all excited. We were going to move into the mansion too, and we have heard rumors about swimming pools, bowling allies, and lots of other things. 'This is going to be the best time I am ever going to have.' I said and fell asleep.
