Chapter 3

A/N- Here is another chapter, I won't be uploading this frequently all the time but I had some time as I'm off school :) anyway hope you enjoyy!



Jodie's POV


It was quarter to 3 when I finally decided that the recording was as good as I could get it all I had to do was record my intro and outro, I started with my intro first.


'Hey guys Jodie here and I've decided to do something a little different today, it's something I've been wanting to do for quite a while now and I finally managed to find the courage to do it. It's quite personal to me, so as you may know I moved to England 6 months ago and never released why. Well basically I was in a car accident and I lost my mum, dad and sister Rachael in the accident. It was a horrible day for me..' I paused and looked about the room to help me fight back tears I wasn;t about to cry on camera I'm not like that. I took a deep breathe before continuing with a smile 'So basically this is a dance that I have choreographed myself and it is the first time since the accident that I have danced properly using proper techniques etc so it may still be a little rough around the edges but this is a tribute dance the music is called In the Arms of an Angel by Sarah McLachlan and I hope you enjoy it. I said smiling and stopping the camera. I decided before doing the outro I would go wash my face and calm myself down because this was hard to do. As I walked out the living room and into the kitchen to throw some water over my face I bumped into JJ. I looked at him and without realising it I let a tear fall down my cheek, he never said anything he just hugged me. What I love about JJ is I have known him for a while longer than the others because he is Patsy's brother and he's always been like the brother I've never had.


I pulled away from the hug and looked at him. 'Jodie are you sure that this isn't too soon?' He looked at me concerned he has always been concerned about me ever since I moved in with them. 'JJ this is something I have to do I feel like once I have done it I will finally have a weight lifted off my shoulders' I smiled reassuringly, why can I not just open up to them and tell them I mentally told myself. 'If you say so Jodie, please don't force yourself to do it though if your not ready because your fans will understand I'm sure' He told me before squeezing my shoulder then walking away to his room. I soaked my face quickly in the kitchen then went back into the living room this time to film the outro.


'So guys I hope you liked the video, I know it's not my usual content but its something I have really wanted to do.. Anyway please let me know what you thought and if your new please subscribe. Thank you so much for watching and I'll see you all soon' I smiled giving the peace sign and turning my camera of and breathing a sigh of relief. 'Thank god thats it over' I said to myself as I moved the sofas back and then headed up to my room to edit the video. I grabbed my laptop seeing as it was only going to be a short edited video and sat on my bed, I put my earphones in and played spotify listening to my playlist I usually listened to when I edited.


It took an hour or something for me to edit it and I waited for the video to render and then I could upload it. I went and got changed into some shorts and another Sidemen jumper (I basically live in their clothing) so i was in comfortable clothes for the movie binge. I looked over at my laptop once I got changed and noticed that the video had rendered, I took a deep breathe before getting ready to upload it. I captioned it 'I AM FINALLY READY' and then uploaded it. I watched as the percentage built up and finally reached 100% and uploaded I sighed with relief but it was a shaky sigh as I wasnt sure as to how my fans would react. After about 5 minutes my Twitter was going crazy with mostly positive tweets about my video, there were the odd nasty ones saying things like 'Your video is so attention seeking' etc but I ignored them. I scrolled through some more tweets liking them and replying when I heard a gentle knock at my door. I stood up and shouted 'Come in' I looked over to my door and saw Simon walk in he looked like he had been crying before I could say anything he walked over to me and hugged me I was slightly surprised but I hugged him back. I felt weird butterflies in my stomach but I just ignored them, we pulled out the hug and I looked at him.


'Simon are you alright?' I asked him slightly concerned as to why he has tear stains on his cheeks. 'Jodie? Are you kidding? After the video you just uploaded your asking me if I am okay? You really do put others before yourself don't you' I looked at him slightly confused at the last part but the hugging made sense now. 'Simon were you crying at my video?' I basically whispered. 'Yes Jodie your video was beautiful! Honestly I can say it is the first dancing video that has made me cry, it was lovely' He said smiling brightly now, I felt so happy to hear him say something so nice about my video. 'Thank you so much Simon! That honestly means a lot' I smiled and we stood looking at each other for a minute before hearing Josh shout up letting us know they were back. Oh no I thought I better brace myself for these horror films..


Time Skip


It was half 7 and everyone was gathered in the living room getting comfortable to watch the first film. I brought my duvet down as did Patsy and Vikk. I was curled in the corner of one sofa with Simon next to me and Josh next to him under my cover. On the other couch was Tobi who had come over and joined us sitting next to Patsy and Vikk at the other side. JJ decided he would take the beanbag on the floor. I looked around at everyone and my eyes caught with Patsy who I could tell was excited as she loved horror films. I quickly nudged my head for her to look beside her at tobi then I smirked. I knew that Patsy had a little crush on Tobi and I have always thought he had a slight crush on her. She just rolled her eyes at me and laughed quietly.


'Right so we can start with The Exorcist or The Conjuring your choice?' Vikk said and looked around. 'Lets start with The Conjuring' Simon suggested and I looked at him with wide eyes I honestly hate horror films and The Conjuring is one of the worst ones there is. He just laughed at me and leaned into my ear and whispered 'It's fine you can hug me at the scary bits' I just rolled my eyes and laughed a little. Everyone started to get comfy as the film was about to start.


I knew because of the music it was getting to a jump scare bit because of the music and I started to hide my eyes under the covers, I then felt someone under the covers hold my hand and I looked down and it was Simon, the same butterfly feeling returned in my stomcha and I smiled at myself and started thinking to myself could I be falling for Simon Minter? I was brought out of my thoughts by JJ screaming really loudly at the film everyone just started laughing. I started squeezing Simons hand tightly because I knew another scary bit was coming up and he started stroking my hand gently with his thumb. Out of some weird luck before the scary bit could come up the electricity cut out. Everyone just looked around confused for a minute then a bit of lightening lit up the room followed by a loud clap of thunder making me jump and causing Simon to laugh at me.


'Looks like there's a storm arrived' Tobi said. 'Oh great now what do we do' Josh said rolling his eyes and leaning back on the sofa with his arms crossed over his chest making me laugh lightly. 'Well we could play some games?' I shrugged. 'OMG yes!! We can play spin the bottle or truth or dare!' Patsy practically shouted causing Tobi and JJ to jump and the rest of us laughed. 'I'm down for that' JJ said and the rest of us agreed and we started getting in the positions for spin the bottle sitting in a circle. Josh, Vikk and Simon went and got candles to light up the room, Vikk and Simon also brought their camera's in case they wanted to vlog the night. This was going to be a fun night I said to myself while looking down at my phone seeing as it was only 9pm.


So that's another chapter done! Please tell me our thoughts so far :) I am hoping to upload at least one more time this week! Anyway until next time. See yaa
