Chapter 1: Oh. My. Gosh. WE'RE TRAPPED!?!?

I walk into the mall with Gerome and Miri. Just a normal day, and most people are here shopping. I look down at the floor not wanting to look at anyone. Then my decision is made, I look up at Gerome and Miri who are looking at me.

"Alright, off to the GameStop I go! Bye!~" I say in a sing songish voice to the two as I run off to find an escalator to go up. Man, they're so much fun!

On my way to the escalator though, I accidentally bump into a group of people with hats and mustaches. I back up a little bit and shake my head to clear it or something. I then look up to get a better look at the people.

"I'm so sorry! I wasn't watching where I was going..." I say rubbing the back of my head embarrassed.

"No, no, it's perfectly fine. We weren't watching where we were going either." The really short one of the group says.

"You... You look familiar..." The guy with curly hair popping out of his hat says.

I tilt my head in confusion, "I don't know how. I mean, I've only lived here a year just about." I explain.

"Oh, really?" Another one of them asks, he isn't that tall, or anything.

That's when I notice the accents, "Hey! You've got a similar accent to mine!" I say, a big smile appearing on my face, "I nearly forgot what others sounded like from the UK."

"What do you mean? You're the one with an accent." A fourth guy says.

"Oh, right. I bet my accent has changed a little bit, I mean, the last time I was in the UK was after the X Fact...." I get interrupted by my phone going off. I quickly pull it off of my pocket and answer it, "Hello?"

"Was she on the X Factor last year?" I hear one of the guys ask the other 4.

"She was about to say X Factor, I'm sure of it." Another said.

"Um, Miri.... Why are you calling me?" I ask through the phone with a neutral expression, "What do you mean you're watching me?" I ask looking around.

"She looks fam..." An Irish sounding guy, the short guy of the group gets interrupted by my yelling.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN GAMESTOP ISN'T HERE ANYMORE!?" I screech. Laughing on the other side of the phone makes me even angrier, "MIRI! You're so getting it next time I see you!! Hey.... I have an idea... Can we go to Harry T's Lighthouse tonight for some Karaoke?" I ask Miri. She says yes after asking Gerome.

Then I respond with, "That's how I'm going to take you down then!" My famous smirk appears on my face, "M'Kay. See ya later! AND STOP STALKING ME!!!" I yell before hanging up.

"Sorry about that..." I mummble in embarrassment turning to them and giving them an apologetic look.

"It's no problem lass." The Irish says.

"Yeah, don't worry about it love." One of the British boys says.

"Alright, now if you'll excuse me lads, I need to get to GameStop!" I grin at them waving as I hop onto the escalator.

1 and A Half Hours Later, After I Buy Two New Games

I finally leave the store, happy with my two purchases. I take the escalator down to the first level, and the first thing I notice is five boys being chased by many girls. I blink multiple times before running as they're running in my direction. I quickly run into a store called, Billy's Clothing Line Store. But, soon, the five boys come running in here as well. Suddenly the manager of the store comes out of nowhere and locks the door to the store after exiting.

"HEY! WHY'D YOU LOCK THE DOOR!?!?" I yell at the manager.

"Sorry Miss. Have fun!" He yells running away.

"You have got to be kidding me...." I say sighing.

"Hey, it's you again." A boy with very familiar blonde hair says.

I look at each of the boys' faces, and surprise takes over my facial expression. It's them from that interview....

"Y-You're.... Ugh.... I'm so bad with names... You're those boys!" I yell pulling out my phone opening up YouTube and pulling up that interview where they thanked that special person.

'"We were so nervous during the X-Factor, we were sure we would've failed. But, then suddenly..." The curly haired guy starts.

"There was this girl, she looked to be 17 or 18. Her blonde hair with black streaks going to her mid back." Pixie hair style continues.

"She encouraged us to try harder, and that we could do it." The blonde haired boy had finished during an interview one day.

Then they turned to the camera, "If you're watching, the girl that encouraged us, thank you for what you did for us!" All five of them yelled.'

"You're her?" They all ask, making me have an expressionless expression.

"Am I who?" I ask confused.

"Wait, what?" Right direction pixie style hair asks surprised.

"I don't know who you're talking about....?" My phone begins ringing and I pick it up, "What do you want Gerome?" I ask annoyed.

I put it on speaker not really caring about Gerome's privacy or anything anymore.

"Where are you? You do know that the store is closing in 5 minutes right?" Gerome's voice asks.

"Oh... Well, um.. You see.... I'm stuck in Billy's Clothing Line Store..." I say defeated.

"You're kidding! Why are you there!?" I hear Miri yell from Gerome's side.

"Not my fault! These girls were chasing these boys, and I didn't want to get caught up in it, so I ran, and ended up in this store. They followed me, the boys, and then the manager of the store suddenly locked us in here after leaving the store! He then ran off!!" I explain while pacing in a circle.

"Who are the boys?" Miri asks, you can tell that her interest has been peeked.

"Um... Well, they seem to be those boys who were on X Factor UK series 7. They were giving an interview that we watched after we became friends Miri?" I ask.

"You bet I do!" She exclaims, "They were so hot! But, what about them?"

"That's who I'm with. And, it's kinda weird..." I say rubbing the back of my head nervously.

"It could be you're destined to be with one of them!" Miri exclaims making me roll my eyes.

"I doubt that Miri." I say noticing all five boys are blushing which confuses me.

"So, since we won't be able to go to Harry T's Lighthouse, should we just do it over the phone, or wait for another day?" Gerome asks.

I tap my right hand's pointer finger against my right leg in thought, "I wanna sing at least one song. You know my love for it!" I grin.

"Alright, tell me what song then, and I'll play it for you!" Miri says.

I smirk and whisper the last song I sang perfectly on the X Factor into the phone. My smirk still there as she laughs knowing why I chose it. Soon enough the music plays through my phone, I pull out my broken mic out of my purse, set the phone down, turning it up to full sound, I begin the dance moves for the song that I made up, and then I start singing.

As soon as the song is done, I end in the splits. I stand up, and begin laughing at the boys' expressions. They're obviously surprised at my performance. Then Gerome, Miri, and the boys begin applauding. I take a bow, "Thank you, thank you!" I grin.

"Lil! What am I going to tell your family!? They're calling me!" Miri asks panicked.

"Just tell them I'm having a sleepover with you after going to karaoke at Harry T's Lighthouse." I say already having it planned out in my head.

"Alright. Hey Mr and Mrs O'Niell! Oh yeah? Well, we're heading to Harry T's Lighthouse for some karaoke. Then she's gonna spend the night at my house." Miri's voice is quiet, but still loud enough to hear.

She continues talking to my parents for a little while longer. I tune her out, and begin talking to the boys. Well, they keep asking me questions about the X Factor.

"So when were you kicked off of the X Factor?" Left pixie hair style boy asks me.

"After week 2, I picked the wrong song. Either I did it on total accident, or I secretly wanted to be kicked off." I explain.

"Why would you want to be kicked off?" Curly hair asks.

"I don't know. I was confident in my singing, and everything, but it could be I was going to be off within the next few weeks." I answer.

"How old were you last year?" Blonde asks.

"I was 17, and now I'm 18." I say smiling.

"What's your name?" Black haired guy asks me.

"It's Lil..." I get cut off again.

"They're fine with it as long as you're home by Saturday." Miri says, and I can tell she's trying to keep herself from laughing.

"Alright, alright!" I say tired of getting cut off every single time I am about to say my name. When I first met Gerome and Miri, I got cut off ALL OF THE TIME!!! They still do it a lot.

"Sorry, sorry." Miriana says with sincerity, realizing what she did, again.

"It's fine. Hey, my phone's about to die. I'm going to have to call you back later. You and Gerome go have a karaoke date or something. I'll be back by tomorrow!" I give a thumbs up even though she can't see me.

"Alright, see ya tomorrow girl." Miri says and Gerome ends the call.

I pull out  a charger and chord so I can plug my phone in. I quickly find an outlet and plug in my phone so it will charge.

"Welp, looks like we're going to be here for the night. Now this is something I didn't expect at all. Getting trapped in a store with the people that were so nervous, they thought that they'd fail the X Factor!" I grin before realization washes over me, "Oh. My. Gosh. WE'RE TRAPPED!!!!!!" I yell.

"Seems so." Right pixie hair style says.

"I'm sleeping near my phone, come near me in my sleep at all and you're gonna regret it." I say with a straight face. I lay down and darkness welcomes me after a couple of minutes of silence.

That kinda went a little different than how I imagined... But wow, is it good? What do you guys think? Feel free to comment in the comments what you think. I would love your constructive criticism, it will help me become a better writer and such. Alright, enjoy your day/whatever time it is when you read this! Bye bye my lovely peeps!
