I got through the other rounds and we are now in the 3 live show. We are down to two people. Me and someone from Nicks team, Mason. We are about to battle it out to see who is going through to tomorrow's show.
"Ok. First up is Mason." Says Cheryl.
Mason begins to sing as I stand at the side with Olly Murs and Caroline Flack. He is signing I will always love you. I can't beat that. I start to cry just as he finishes. I'm introduced and the music starts.
"I was born in a thunder storm. I grew up over night. I played alone. I played on my own. I survived. Hey. I wanted everything I never had. Like the love that comes with life. I wore envy and I hated that. But I survived. I had a one way ticket to a place where all the demons go. Where the wind don't change. And nothing in the ground could ever grow. No hope. Just lies. And your taught to cry. In you pillow. But I survived. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I found solace in the strangest places way in the back of mind. I saw my life in a stranger's face. And it was mine. I had a one way ticket to a place where all the demons go. Where the wind don't change. And nothing in the ground could ever grow. No hope just lies and your taught to cry in your pillow. But I survived. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. You took it out and I'm still breathing. You took it out and I'm still breathing. You took it out and I'm still breathing. You took it out and I'm still breathing. I have made every single mistake. That you could ever possibly make. I took and I took and I took what you gave. But you never noticed that I was in pain. I know what I wanted. I went out and got it. Did all the things that you said that I wouldn't. I told you that I would never be forgotten. I know its part of you. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm still breathing. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive."
Just like when Mason sang, the audience erupts with applause, filling the room with noise. Caroline, Mason and Olly come to the centre of the stage and stand with me.
"That was amazing. Well done both of you." Says Caroline.
"Thank you." Mason and I both say in sync.
We get through the complements and we are now down to the vote.
"Simon, we need the name of the act you will be sending home tonight." Says Olly.
"Gosh, this is hard, but I'm going to send Mason home." Says Simon.
"Thank you Simon. Cheryl?" Says Olly.
"Harper. I really want to save you, but I want to to save Mason as well and you understand that I have to go with my own category?" Says Cheryl
I nod.
"I'm so sorry, but I'm going to be sending home Harper." Says Cheryl.
"Ok. That's one vote for Mason and one vote for Harper. Rita?" Says Caroline.
"Like Cheryl said. I want to save you both, but I have to stick with my girls. I'm going to be sending Mason home tonight." Says Rita.
"Ok. That's two votes for Mason and one for Harpern Nick. If you choose to save Mason, it will go back to the public vote. If you vote to save Harper, Mason will go home tonight. We need the name of the act you are sending home tonight." Says Caroline.
"I can't choose. I'm taking it back to the public vote." Says Nick ad he sits back in his chair.
"Ok. I have the results and I can now reveal thag the person, going through to tomorrow's live show is...." Says Olly.
There's about a 10 second pause.
"Mason!" Says Olly.
The crowd begins to cheer, but I just stand frozen. Mason goes off stage and Olly and Caroline stand eaither side of me. I start crying and then begin to hear something in my ear piece.
"Harper. Are you ok?" Asks Caroline.
"Yeah." I say.
The sound is muffled, so I can't make out what the person is saying in my ear piece.
"Do you have anything to say?" Asks Olly.
"Yeah. I want to say thank you to everyone who voted for me and tried to save me. It may be the end on the xfactor, but it's not the end for-" I say as the word a through my ear piece become clearer.
"Harper. Are you sure you're ok?" Asks Olly.
"I have to go. My best friend has gone into early Labour and she is one of the people that ckmes before any of this. Thank you again." I say.
The crowd cheers as I hurry off stage. There's another big crowd wait if outside, but I get straight into a taxi with Rachel and Lily. We drive to the hospital and I go straight to her room.
"Ryakrd. Is everything ok?" I ask.
"She's having the baby three months early. The doctor said that one of them might not make it." Says Rykard.
We look at Hanna, who is sleeping, and then the doctor comes in.
"Sorry. Who are you?" Asks the male doctor.
"I'm a friend of Hanna's." I say as I sit beside her bed and take her hand.
"Ok. Hanna is showing signs of improvement, however, we may need to take her for an emergency ceserean. If she wakes up with no disturbance witning the next 30 minutes, she may be able to deliver naturally." Says the doctor.
"Ok." Says Rykard.
Exactly 17 minutes pass and Hanna wakes up. She starts to panic when she doesn't realise where she is, but soon calms when she notices me and Rykard.
"Hanna it's really important that you tell me exactly how you are feeling." Says Rykard.
"I feel tired, but I need to push." Says Hanna as she begins to moan in pain.
"Ok. I'll get a doctor." I say.
Hanna starts to scream as I leave the room. I return 5 minutes later with the doctor from earlier. They take Hanna down to the delivery ward and it only takes 2 hours for the baby to be born. Once he is born, he is taken away as he is having difficulties breathing.
God, I hope he's ok.
