I have to admit, I have no idea how this whole chapter will turn out . Let's just wait and see. hehe

Nellie's POV

What have I done? I have caused so much destruction. I look over at Michael who is with Blake playing thumb war to decide who gets the last Red Vine. Maybe that's what I need to do, compete with myself to see who wins. But there's no point. I know now that I can't be with Dani. I've blown it either way. If I am bi, I've blown it. But, what hurts the most, is I've blown my friendship with her. And what have I gained from it? Remorse. That's all that comes to mind. Remorse and a broken heart.

Michael's POV

Dani strides over to Nellie, who looks worried but relieved. It kills me. I hear Dani say 'we need to talk'. She leads Nel away and I automatically stand. I tell Blake to have the Twix before following the couple.

"Michael," Blake says from behind. "Don't interfere. Don't take what's not yours." Those words echo in my head like Dani's footsteps in the distance ahead of me. I listen intently.

"Nellie. I'm gonna ask you some things and I need the truth, okay sweetie?" Dani says.

"Okay. I'm listening"

"What's your sexuality?" I knew she'd say that. I try to see Nellie's face, but can't catch it.

"... Bi" Oh god.

"Okay. On a scale of one to ten, one being nothing and ten being a lot, how much do you like like me?" This is getting hard to bear. I resist the temptation to save Nellie. I can't. Like Blake says 'Don't take what isn't yours'

"seven" Nellie says after a long pause.

"What about... him. Michael" She says my name like it's some sort of disease.

"Uh... Eight." Then I go numb.

Lily's POV

Part of me knows what will happen. It kills me to admit it, but I'm going home. The mentors amble onstage, making me feel very nervous. My palms are sweating. I glance at Shanna next to me. We haven't talked since the shoot as we both know how this revealing will end. I try. I try to keep my head high. But it's not working. It never works.

"Hey guys. So this weeks theme was Pairability. It involved a lot of acting, chemistry and connection. Some of you guys rose to the top, others of you fell behind. So, let's start with Blake and Callie. Callie, as one of the homework winners you had a lot of pressure on you. You chose a very good partnering with Blake and... your hard work paid off. Congratulations, you are both through to next week!" They hug and make their way off stage, and I see them join hands in the shadow. No way!

"Right, Charlie and Aylin. You were given quite a hard video. It involved raw acting and patience. You were amazing through out the week, so Mr homework winner and Aylin... you are also through to next week!" Another hugging fest. My breathing quickens. Not now. Oh god.

"So you guys are the bottom three pairings. You are here as each pair were let down in some way. One person from each pair will be in the bottom. Let's start with Dani and Mario."

"Mario. In the booth with me your attitude when Dani was late was very bad. Dani. You had trouble with me and Eric, like you weren't focussing and were late. So, Dani... you are doing a last chance performance tonight. Mario, you are safe. Well done."

Dani's POV

How could I have been so blind. All week i've been so focussed on love that I haven't been fulfilling my potential. I forgot why I was here. And it kills me. I stand at the back of the stage, trying to regain my composure. But I can't. I've lost it. I've lost myself.

Nellie's POV

I feel so heartbroken for Dani. After all she's been through. After all I've put her through. It's all my fault. I need to speak up for her, tell the mentors it's my fault. I can't. How could I be so selfish?

"Michael. This week you struggled with Nicki in the booth, having bum notes and getting frustrated. Nellie. The song showed a longing and an emotion, but we didn't see any of that with you until the very end of the video. Nellie. You are... on the callback list, congrats. So Michael, you'll be performing for Ryan tonight." I make my way off stage, but take one last look. I see Michaels grief, Dani's hurt and all I feel is pain. Why?

Shanna's POV

Why leave us until the end? I feel like I shouldn't be on this stage.

"Finally, Shanna and Lily. Both of your problems this week were to do with the way you held yourself. Lily, we felt like we weren't seeing the real you, like you were intimidated by Shanna." Zach explains. "But Shanna, you weren't yourself either. We felt you were taking advantage of Lily and overpowering her too much." I resent that! I nod understandingly but feel so shocked inside.

"Shanna," Robert says, leaving a pause "You will be doing a performance for Ryan tonight."

So, our bottom 3 and their songs

Shanna: Wide awake- Katy Perry

Dani: Mean- Taylor Swift

Michael: Cough Syrup- Young the Giant
