"Now come on, we need to practice." I say and drag him by the hand up the top of the fire escape. He laughs and we walk back in. "Hey guys!" Samuel says and we start practicing. After a while, when they all leave the room, I stay behind and get out my ipod. I close my eyes and listen to 'You' By The Pretty Reckless.
I open them 5 minutes later to see Samuel and Marissa walking towards me. "Hey." I say and they sit at either side of me. "What's up?" I ask and they look at me. Marissa uses her sleeve to wipe my face. "You've been crying." Samuel says matter-of-factly. "I'm ok." I say and get up to walk out but they pull me back down.
"Don't lie to us." Marissa says. "I'm ok, I promise." They look at me and shake their heads. "Stop worrying." Samuel says and I laugh. "I'm not." I say and Marissa nods. "Stop worrying about your Dad." Marissa says and I shrug. "When we go to Ireland, he's going to be there." I say and a tear rolls down my cheek. "I won't let him near you." Samuel says and I laugh. "He'll be there, and I don't want to be anywhere near him." I say and think of Ciara.
Marissa hugs me and Samuel puts his hand on my arm. I look back at the sheet and the three of us practice. I smile and we get up. "I don't know about you two, but I am starving!" Samuel says and we nod. "Magic charms?" Samuel says and Marissa nods. "Brinner." She says with a smile and high fives Samuel. "Nice Scrubs reference." Samuel says to her and she smiles. We eat and see Damian holding on to Lindsay as she cries. We go to walk over to them but Damian shakes his head. "I got her." He whispers to us and we smile and walk back out.
We walk into the guys dorm and sit down on Samuel's bed. He steals my ipod and starts taking pictures and posting them on twitter. I laugh at him and he pulls the hood up on me. I laugh and he grabs my hand. He takes a picture of our hands that have each others bracelets on.
THE NEXT DAY
I wake up and get changed into clothes for practicing straight away. I walk in and we practice for a few hours and people keep breaking down. Everyone except Marissa, she never seems to. Strange. Damian starts getting nervous for his one on one with Dot and when he goes into the Choir room, we sit and read magazines, comfort best friends and I reserch Universal Citywalk. "Well. I'm scared." I say and they laugh. I grab my laptop and create a tumblr.
Just To Rant, Get Things Off My Chest, And To Relieve Stress...
I put as the title and start writing a post.
And so here we are. The final 10. And this is the most emotional week ever. Mending hearts are breaking and broken hearts are mending. I love every single person in here, and who has been here. I realise who I care about, who I always have and who I always will, thank you The Glee Project, you've should me how to trust and how to love. Do you know what it's like to hate yourself everyday of your life because you weren't meant to be here? Do you know how it feels to have to be a fake everyday because you know your 'friends' won't like you if you tell them the truth? Do you know what it's like to have your best friend go into Rehab? I do. It's not fun, driving your friend to rehab on the way to the airport.
Song To Listen To: 'You' By The Pretty Reckless.
I send it and we practice again.
Damian walks out with a smile on his face. "You ok McGinty?" Emily asks and he nods. "That was so much fun." We smile and he jumps up and down.
