I arrived home and shut off the ignition. Before going inside, I let out a sigh and flopped back on the seat. 

I'm going on the X-Factor. I'm moving out of the house for a little bit. I'm going on the X-Factor. Mom won't be able to boss me around. I'm going on the X-Factor. 

I opened the car door, hopped out and let it shut, locking it with a beep. I walked feebly inside, not sure of how my mother would react. As I walked through the door, my little sister Lucy pounced on me. 

"MOM TOLD US!" Lou shouted. "Congratulations Ruthie! I cant wait until you're a superstar and you can buy me Dolly's and clothes and flowers and.." 

I silenced Lucy by putting a finger to her lips. 

"Now Lou, we don't know anything yet so you've got to keep it quiet, okay?"

The six year old nodded her head in agreement. I kissed her cheek, patted her on the head, and stood up as my mother came down the stairs to greet me. 

"Congratulations Ruthie. I never guessed you would've made it so far. We're all so proud of you I hope you know!" She was basically grinning from ear to ear which brought a small smile to my lips. I could tell it was sincere. "Thanks mom. It means a lot" I whispered as i leaned in for a quick hug, 

"Now, I want you to tell me all about it." Her tone was back to serious again so I let out a small chuckle and began..

"So, I have to be moved into the dorms by noon tomorrow." I informed my mother. 

"Oh honey! That's wonderful. You had better go and start packing then!"

"I will mom," I said, making my way up the stairs and towards my room.

"Goodnight dear! We'll leave at 11:00 tomorrow for the dorms okay?"

I quickly mumbled an "Mhm" before shutting my door and setting down my things. I had alot of packing to do..

A/N: Alright so from now on I'll try to update on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and either Sat/Sun. Sound good? Also, I know the chapters are a bit short as of now but they'll get longer as the story gets more in depth I promise! I'd really appreciate it if you guys would comment and give me some feedback yeah? I'm not going to ask for votes because yeah, I like them, but I find it a bit annoying when authors always ask for so many votes just to update! So, Give me some feed back!
