Chapter One

~~~Adelaide's P.O.V~~~

Hello all, the names Adelaide Stars, but my friends call me Addie and I'm eighteen years old. Before I start anything I should probably tell you somethings about me, right? So, firsts things first, I'm a famous singer/song writter originally from Australia but is living in London, I first started out on YouTube and than one thing lead to another and now BOOM everyone knows who I am. My name wasn't originally Adelaide Stars, it used to be Annabeth Williams but after eveythings that's happened I decided to change it, I decided on Adelaide because it is the name of the city I was born in.

So, the reasons that I changed my name was firstly because when I was six my mum was killed in a car crash on her way home from work, she was hit by a drunk driver and had died instantly, my dad ended up getting re-married to a bitch of a woman and the three of us ended up moving much to my dismay. We never really had a 'stable' place to live, we kept on moving from place to place, it wasn't until I was in my last year of Primary school that we finally found a house where we would be able to stay for a while, in Holmes Chapel, England. We waited until I was going into high school before we moved to which I was thankful of, kinda, when I started high school I was hoping that I could make some new friends but I was so wrong. On my first day I started to get bullied, I was bullied for everything, how I looked, how I acted, how I talked and even for my mums death. To say high school was rough would be the understatement of the year, at first it was just verbal stuff with the occasional being pushed and shoved but after a few years it turned more physical. I started getting beaten at home by my father and at school by the teens that always made fun of me, although everyone at school was doing it to me there was one person who was more involved in it than anyone else, he was the one that actually started it in the first place. His name, was Harry Styles...

As soon as I could I got the hell out of Holmes Chapel and moved to Mullingar, Ireland to live with the relatives that I had over there, when I was younger I wasn't that close to my cousins but as we got older we got closer.A year after I had moved away from home my dad had been killed in a car crash much like my mum did but this time it was my dad's fault, and he was the drink driver. My step mum is probably off living her life somewhere, I honestly couldn't careless where she is or if she is still alive, I know I sound like such a stuck-up bitch but believe me, I have my reasons.

As you can see, all of the things that I just told you about were why I changed my name from Annabeth to Adelaide so that no one would know who I was before I became famous...
***************************************************************************

'All aboard! Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaa!
Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay, Ay'

Ozzy Osbourne's song Crazy Train was blasting through my stereo speakers as I danced around my room singing into my hair brush as if it was a microphone, (hey just because I'm famous doesn't make me any less of a freak than I am)

'Crazy, but that's how it goes
Millions of people living as foes
Maybe it's not too late
To learn how to love
And forget how to hate

Mental wounds not healing
Life's a bitter shame
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
Let's Go!'

As I bounded around my room scream-singing at the top of my lungs I heard my room mates grumble at how I was always so hypo, I live in a flat in London with my two best friends Casey Laura and Ella Philips who both happen to be my stylists for interviews, concerts and shit like that. The day that I first met the girls we instantly became best friends and now I don't go any where without these two, unless Simon wants me for whatever reason.
My bedroom door flies open and there stood a grumpy looking Ella, her usually well kept blonde hair sticking up everywhere, she was glaring at me as I jumped up onto my bed and began using it as a trampoline. I fact that I do this a lot means that I go through beds like teenage girls go through phones.

'I've listened to preachers
I've listened to fools
I've watched all the dropouts
Who make their own rules
One person conditioned to rule and control
The media sells it and you live the role

Mental wounds still screaming
Driving me insane
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train
I'm going off the rails on a crazy train'

By now Casey has also joined Ella at my bedroom door and as soon as she see what I am doing she starts to laugh, unlike Ella Casey's dark chocolate brown hair is sitting in nice loose waves over her shoulders. As I continue singing along with Ozzy Osbourne I fail to notice that Casey has began runnning at me and by the time I realize what she is doing it is too late. I feel her arms wrap around my legs as she tackels me causing me to fall off of the bed and her to come with me, I land on the hard wooden fall with a thud and Casey falls ontop of me, Casey crawls off of my body and when I sit up we both look at each other before cracking up laughing at one another. Casey's hair is now all over the place, sticking up in every possible direction and I can imagine that my own dark red hair is in the same shape.

Ella walks over to my stereo and turns the music off before walking over to us, she extends both of her hands down to help Casey and I up, I look over at Casey to see an evil glint in her eyes, we both grasp one of Ella's hands and as she goes to pull us up we yank her arms down towards us and she falls down on top of us. The three of us start laughing as we all sit on my bedroom floor, this is basically our normal morning routine, I'll wake up really early all hypo for no reason then I'll go and wake the girls up some

how and we always end up lying on the floor laughing.
Out of no where a Mayday Parade song starts playing making us all jump a little bit, I instantly reconise the song as When I Get Home You're So Dead also known as my ring tone for my phone. I pull myself off of the floor and begin to look around my messy room for where my phone might be, I finally find it underneath a bunch of my clothes and I answer the call, not even bothering to look at the caller ID

"Hello?" I ask, my voice slightly raspy from this mornings 'concert'

"Hello, is this Adelaide?" His deep british voice asks me

"Nope. It's a burglar who stole her phone! Mwahahah" I said making my voice go all deep and male like, I tried to keep a straight face but I failed and I ended up laughing "What do ya need Simon?"

"Stop over at my office in twenty mintues, there's something I need to ask you about" He told me "I have people that I want you to meet!"

"Okay, I'll see you there Si!" I said before I hung up the phone, I turn to where Casey and Ella are still sat and I grap each of the arms and yank them up, I push them out of my room so that I could get ready to meet Simon. I go through my many sets of clothing draws before I pull out my white tank-top with skulls all over it, a pair of denim skinny jeans and a dark blue blazer. I pair that with my skull face hand-bag, my black two-inch heeled boots, a black love heart necklace, my simple silver one love heart charmed charm bracelete that the girls gave me for my seventeenth birthday and my rayban sunglasses. I quickly throw everything on before grabbing my phone, song book and wallet and stuffing it into my skull face hand-bag, I yell out to the girls telling them where I was going and I walk out of my flat to go meet up with Simon...




~~~Harry's P.O.V~~~

I was looking through my old yearbook like I do every now and then, replaying some of the memories of my time at high school, as I was flickling through the book I landed on the page where it showed all of the people in my year level and my eyes flickered to the red headed girl with the dark blue eyes and nerdy glasses.

"Harry!" Louis called "What are you drooling at?"

I pulled my attention away from the girl I had been staring at to look at Lou
"I'm not drooling!" I told him which only caused him to chuckle at me, Louis came to sit next to me and snatched the yearbook out of my hands "Hey!" I protested but he wouldn't hear of it, he started to look through all of my class mates until he caught sight of the picture I had been staring at moments ago

"Who's this girl?" He said pointing at her picture, I took my yearbook back from him and

I sighed as I replayed the memories that I had of her

"That's Annabeth Williams," I told him, pausing slightly before I continued on "she was known as the school outcast, I used to bully her"

"Dude, why would you bully her? She's freaking gorgeous!" Louis exclaimed and I sighed

"To be honest Lou, I don't know why I did it and she really was a gorgeous girl, glasses and all..." I trailed off my voice growing thick, I never told anyone this but I always had a soft spot for the nerdy little red head and after everytime I would hurt her, whether it be verbal or phyiscal, I would always feel guilty about it. There were a few times where I just wanted to run back to her and apologise and make sure that she was okay, but I never did...

"What do you mean 'was'?" He asked confused and I shook my head slightly

"She died a few years ago, apparently in some freak accident, I don't know. Her old friend, Maddie, was going around school telling everyone that she had died but she wouldn't say how. It hurts me knowing that she's dead and how I never had a chance to apologise for everything that I've done to her in the past..."

"That's... weird"

"Isn't it just"

"BOYS!" Liam's voice echoed from somewhere around the flat that all five of us shared together "We have to meet Simon at Syco in fifteen minutes!" He comes bounding down the stairs and over to where Louis and I are seated, he graps us both by the arm and yanks us up off of the couch causing the yearbook that I had sat on my lap to fall to the floor. I quickly pick it up and hug it closely to my chest as if it was a precious dimond, and to me it was. Liam gives me a weird look as I tell him to hold up for a minute, I dash into my room and I tuck the yearbook underneath my pillow where I always keep it. I run back to where Liam and Louis are and we wait for Niall and Zayn, Niall walks in with an open bag of chips in his hand and I have to resist the urge to roll my eyes, typical Niall right there. Zayn soon follows after him and we all walk out of the flat and into the awaiting black van, we all pile into the van and soon our driver Daniel starts the drive to Syco Records.

"Why does Simon want to see us?" I ask Liam who seems to be the only one who knows anything

"He said he wants us to meet 'someone'" Liam said putting air quotes around 'someone', I sighed and turned to look out the window

"Daniel, could you turn the radio on?" I ask our driver who happily complies, as soon as the radio gets flicked on 'Too Good For You' by Adelaide Stars starts playing

"I love this song!" Louis screahed like a teenage girl as he starts dancing in his seat

"I'm watching the rain fall down as my head spins around
I was thinking of you
Yeah, yeah
I'm feeling the fear run through my pants, I can't hear a sound
And I am so confused
Yeah, yeah"

Louis started singing and I laughed at him but I soon found myself singing as well

"Woah, cuz you were never the one to say that way
So can ya hear me say
Hey there is someone standing baby
And hey, you got nothing to prove
And hey, I'm not trying to hurt ya now baby
It's not that you're too bad for me
I'm just too good for you"

All five of us were now singing along and dancing in our seats, if I do say so myself, we looked like a bunch of loons

"Don't you try the half of me cuz I can see
That you can't escape the truth
Yeah, yeah
I'm falling out from the edge
I'm screaming through my head and now I can't breathe
Are you just afraid to lose
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah)"

We all sing along for the rest of the song and as it begins to close both Louis and I scream out the last line

"I'M JUST TOO GOOD FOR YOU!"

We both high fave each other and then the radio anouncer begins to speak again

"That everyone was Adelaide Star's brand new single called 'Too Good For You', next week Adelaide will be joining us down here in the radio station so you better be listening in then! The next song we have coming up is 'Kiss You' by One Direction!"

We all chuckled as they started playing our song and we started singing along to it, with Zayn starting out first

"Oh I just wanna take you anywhere that you like
We can go out any day any night
Baby I'll take you there take you there
Baby I'll take you there, there"

I followed after Zayn with my part, raising my voice just an octave higher

"Oh tell me tell me tell me how to turn your love on
You can get get anything that you want
Baby just shout it out shout it out
Baby just shout it out"

Liam began singing his part and he raised his voice so that it was louder than mine, I could already see where this was going

"And if you
You want me to
Lets make a move, yeah"

I sang my little part before we all jumped into the chorus

"So tell me girl if every time we"

"Touch
You get this kinda rush.
Let me say yea a yeah a yeah yeah a yeah
If you don't wanna take this slow
If you just wanna take me home
Let me say yeah a yeah a yeah yeah a yeah
And let me kiss you"

We weren't even singing anymore, we were all just belting out the lyrics trying to be louder than the others. By the time the song finished our voices were all worn out and sore and we had reached the Syco Records building. We all jumped out of the car and we ran into the building

"WE HAVE ARRIVED!" Louis screamed as he stalked into the room with his hand on his hip like the sass master he is

"Mr. Cowell is in his office waiting for you  boys" Said the female secretary, for the life of me I could not remember her name, we thanked her before running to Simon's office...
