EARLIER THAT DAY ....

- Ricky's P.O.V -

Lesley has been unable to leave me alone since the incident with Aurora and she honestly has been annoying me. It feels like she is my shadow and it's a sunny day and I am not allowed to go inside, she is always there. I thought it would be great that Aurora has the chance to move on away from me but be able to maintain a good friendship and that I could be happy with someone who I'd loved a long time ago. But it's heading towards a dark place. I miss Aurora and Lesley is just acting strangely. As if she has achieved something.

- Tom's P.O.V -

Still no sign of Sasha which is worrying me a lot. She hasn't turned up to any rehearsals and the producers are proposing the idea of dismissing her from the show, constantly I have been stopping them, convincing them that she will come back. I've tried calling her and she has not even answered any of my phone calls. Today was the final day of rehearsals before the day of the show and if there has been one person who has been distant from everything, including the rehearsals, is Ricky. He has been less fun and more distant, as if he is in a different land or something. I've peaked into rehearsals and he has been leaning against the wall not watching as much as the rehearsal as he normally does and not been giving his silly advice such as his dancing.

Moments before the start of the rehearsals, Sasha came through the door. She seemed as if she had given up on everything. I instantly ran over to her as she started to cry into my shoulder.

"Hey, chick what's up?"

"Nothing much, just thought I'd come and see you and tell you that I'm sorry that I have been away from you and the competition and the rest of the team. I've been unable to come to any of the team rehearsals or individual rehearsals for uncalled for reasons." With that being said, she walked over to the piano and picked up her music sheet. The song she'd be singing 'lost and found', one of her favourites. The rehearsal started and not a single word was breathed about why she hasn't been able to come to the rehearsals. I didn't want to push her to reveal everything since she was away.

- Kaylie's P.O.V -

Since I met Stevie that night when I was doing the dare which the girls had set me, I had been seeing him more often. We had been going on dates to the cinema and to restaurants, he says he will even take me to one of the rehearsals with Ricky.

I love him. He's smart and funny and cute. I never really go or people who have a Scottish accent but, I like his. Well, either that or I am a sucker for men with an accent.

Stevie had been telling me things what happens normally in a rehearsal with Ricky. Including that dance which has famously been named as 'the nervous dance'. As well as that though, he had also been telling me about Ricky and how much he had changed over the past few days, turning into someone less involved and more as if he was trying to stay out of the spotlight. That was totally unlike Ricky. Stevie didn't know about what could be causing it, but I have a pretty good idea.

Today is his rehearsal day and he has told me that I am coming with him, he knows that I'm not much of a singer, but he does know that it will be both awesome and fun to have me there alongside him. Oddly enough, today is also our month anniversary and the girls and the other coaches have no idea about us, all they know is that we know each other.

We arrived at the rehearsal rooms where the corridors were filled with piano players and music coming from the piano as well as vocals. The rehearsal room for team Ricky was the door which equally divided the rooms, altogether there were 8 so our room was number four.

The corridor walls were painted a deep red colour with a silver stripe in the middle; each door was half silver and half red with the name of the team on the door with the voice logo next to it. The rehearsal room had cream coloured walls which were plain and instruments as well as a little performance stage inside. The stage and the piano were distant from each other and was only used a few days before the show, it was for the contestants to get a feel of what it is like to get onstage. Everything was pretty awesome. There was a table next to the piano used for music sheets and used to put beverages on.

"Hey Stevie!" Ricky called out as he entered the room, smiling

"Hey Rick, look who I brought along, I hope it's okay?" he nervously asked

"Oh, hey Kaylie. Yeah, totally it's um. It's fine" he said before turning around to face the piano

"Is there anywhere to sit down?" I asked as I spun my head left and right to find a chair, he quickly turned back around to face me

"Um, yeah there is a speaker you can sit on. I'm sorry it's not ideal but it's also not required for today's rehearsal. Please sit" he said as he pointed to a speaker whilst nervously smiling at me.

I nervously sat down. Ricky pointed at it so it must be okay to sit on. It wasn't being used, as Ricky said, and it had a perfect view of the piano. Ricky seemed tense while I was sitting there and he knows me because of Aurora. He doesn't know that I am here for Stevie because, like everyone else, he doesn't know about my relationship with him.

"Um, guys. I'm heading off to the coffee machine, do you want anything?" I offered as I put my bag on my shoulder and stood up. They both wanted a regular coffee, without milk for Ricky and two sugars for Stevie with milk. I promptly left after I took their orders. When I left I heard the piano begin to play and Stevie's voice singing beautifully. Then it hit me, he was right, Ricky went strange when I was there just because I know Aurora and I am friends with her, there was one thing I needed to do and that is tell Aurora. But not yet, the timing was wrong.
