The studio was dark, the lights dimmed.

"The next act through is..." The audience starting cheering various names, "One Direction!"

The crowd cheered and the boys jumped up hugging Simon.

"The final act through to the next live show is..." There was yet another gap, the wait was agonising for the remaining contestants. "BLAK!"

The four teenage girls screamed jumping for joy before having a group hug with their mentor.

"We survived another week! I thought I would muck it up!" Karin jumped up and down on the spot, adrenaline pumping through her.

"It was because of your amazing singing! We told you that you would be great!" Amy hugged Karina, also high from the excitement.

"I think we should celebrate!" Beth cheered.

"How?"

"We should have a party back at the house!"

"That's not a bad idea; we could put up some lights and turn the music up!" Lianne planned out loud.

The girls told everyone the plan and everyone headed back to decorate the house. It took about an hour until everything was ready and then everyone darted off to get ready.

"I don't see why we're dressing up so much." Karina said, looking through her clothes.

"There are hot guys, plus I want to make them interested even if I'm not." Beth said curling her hair.

"What about you, Lianne? What about the boyfriend?" Amy asked doing her make-up.

"What about him?"

"Well, you're surrounded by hundreds of guys almost all the time, what's he going to think of that?"

"I'm not sure..."

The party was in full swing when the girls walked down the stairs, they all hooked arms in a line.

Amy was wearing a red tank top with black skinny jeans. She wore red and black bangles on each wrist, a black necklace and rd heels shoes. Her hair was left straight.

Beth wore a short pink off-the-shoulder dress. She wore white jewellery and white shoes, her hair in tight curls.

Karina wore a black dress with a green belt, green jewellery and green shoes. Her hair was straightened and pinned up on top of her head.

Lianne wore dark hot pants with a black corset top. She wore black heels and black bracelets. Her hair was in loose curls.

To say that they boys were staring would be an understatement.

"You know we said they were hot?" Zayn whispered to Niall who nodded in response. "That has never been truer!" The boys all hit their knuckles together before walking up to the girls.

"You guys clean up nicely." Amy said, complimenting the boys' skinny jean and shirt combos.

"We do try." Harry said, popping his collar, trying to act cool.

"Obviously not as good as you though, you look amazing!" Louis said.

"Thanks!" The girls said in unison.

"Well, I will get drinks. What do you girls want?" Liam asked.

"Surprise me." The girls said together again.

"You really need to stop doing that." Zayn said, shaking his head slightly.

"We know." All the girls said together yet again. This time everyone laughed.

Liam came back carrying four cans of Coke.

"I didn't know so I just grabbed some cokes for all of you."

The girls took a can each, saying a quick thank you.

"So, how about we have a dance?" Niall asked to no one in particular.

"I'll go for a dance." Beth followed Niall to the living room.

"Why don't we all go?" Harry asked, grabbing Louis' hand romantically. "Come on darling, fancy a dance?"

"Oh, Harry, I would love to! You're so sweet!" Louis answered in a girly voice, pretending to flick his hair.

"Wow, okay then. Let's go dance!" Amy pulled everyone along.

They walked into the crowded room and found the rest of the group. It was strange how there was so many people in the house, but the two groups were always together even if they did act like they hated each other sometimes. The gang were now busy dancing, all the girls were dancing together and the boys were trying to cut in every so often. Though, Louis and Harry were busy caught up in each other, both taking turns to 'declare their love' and then pretending to snog. Each time the rest of them just laughed, either shaking their heads or rolling their eyes t how strange their friends were.

"My feet are killing me!" Amy flopped down onto the sofa after about two hours of dancing.

"I don't even get how girls can wear heels!" Niall sat next to her.

"They make us look good."

"Got a good point there!"

"Hey, guys! Why aren't you dancing?" Beth came in wobbling slightly.

"Beth, are you drunk?"

"I'm not drunk, just a little jolly!"

"Sure you are."

"I love this song!" Beth screamed, dancing away wildly.

"I'm going to get another drink, what do you want?"

"I don't mind, get me anything."

"Okay, but don't worry, I won't be boring like Liam and get you coke." Niall winked before wandering off to the kitchen.

"Hey babe, how's it going?" Lianne sat next to Amy, one arm around her whilst she held a full bottle of WKD in the other.

"You're not drunk too, right?"

"No, not yet, I'm just getting started!" She took a gulp of her drink. "So, why you here?"

"My feet needed a break."

"Should've said, I wouldn't have let my best friend be alone!"

"I'm not, Niall's with me."

"Is he getting drinks?" Amy nodded, just in time for Niall to come back. "I'll leave you alone then." Lianne got up quickly, winking before dashing off join the others.

"Not another drink, Lianne." Louis said, trying to take drink out of her hand.

"Says you, you downed two bottle not so long ago!"

"There's a difference though, I'm over the age limit and it's not illegal!"

"Well, it is my birthday soon."

"Really, when?"

"October 31st; Halloween."

"Not too far away, only a few weeks!"

"I know, I can't wait to see what we do!"

"I'm sure I could plan a party for you."

"Aren't you a great friend!"

"I'm sensing a little bit of sarcasm."

"That's because there was some. So, where is your 'boyfriend'?" Lianne asked, putting air quote around the word boyfriend.

"I don't know." Louis looked around, acting worried. "Harry, where are you my beloved?" He called around.

"He might be outside with the rest of the guys."

"I'll go outside then. Are you going to come?"

"No, I'll just dance with the rest of my girls." With that Louis darted off and Lianne made her way over to her friends.

"So, you and Louis 'eh?" Beth asked, nudging Lianne in the ribs.

"No, but Amy and Niall." Lianne turned Karina and Beth to see Amy and Niall in deep conversation. Amy was looking down, blushing slightly.

"Now, if there is nothing on there. I will be shocked." Karina said sipping her drink.

"There is definitely something going on there. They're so cute; we have to get them together!"

"Come on, we'll go get the guys and plan something!" Karina said, pulling the two girls towards the garden.

"Wait, I need another drink!" Beth screamed, reaching for another alcoholic drink.

"I don't think so; if you're going to drink it will have to be water." Lianne said pulling her away.

"Hey girls, what's up?" Liam said, as he saw them walking over.

"Not much, have you seen Niall and Amy?" Karina said, getting straight to the point.

"Yes, they're inside."

"We meant have you seen they are acting?" Lianne butted in.

"Oh, yes we have. We told Niall to hurry up and get with her." Harry said.

"Yeah, he keeps talking about her." Louis said, pulling Harry onto his lap.

"Well, we were thinking that we should make a plan."

"Like what, lock them in a room and hope for the best?"

"Isn't that for people who hate each other?" Karina asked, looking slightly confused.

"I think we should just leave them, they look as if they'll be together soon any way." Liam suggested, walking back inside.

"I think we should go enjoy the rest of the party, because I would want to get some sleep tonight." Harry stood up off of Louis, pulling him up afterwards. "Though, I would love a dance. Fancy a dance, Lianne?"

"How could I turn down a charming man like you, Harry?"

"Come on then!" Harry grabbed her hand walked her to the middle of the living room. Lianne sent a quick wink to Karina before leaving.

"If only Lianne didn't have a boyfriend, they'd probably be the second couple. They do look quite nice together."

"I guess they don't look too bad together."
