Alex couldn't believe what her eyes were scanning over, what was he doing here? He couldn't possibly be part of the group. On the other hand what else would he be doing here in the first place?
She stood their in silence, eyes widened as she continued to look at him, she didn't know what to say or do. It had been a long six months since they had seen eachother, and all of a sudden it was him in the flesh standing right infront of her.

The boys and Cyd stood in silence, they had no idea how Alex was going to react, and they were hoping that she would take it well. They stood their nervously staring at Alex, still waiting from a reaction from her.

" Hello Sebastien." Alex replied quietly shifting her eyes towards the floor. She didn't want to see him at this moment. She would be better off meeting a stranger than him.

Their was another awkward silence in the room, everyone unsure of what to say or do. The tension between Sebastien and Alex was getting very un comfortable and had no idea how to deal with it.

Just when Urs was about to say something to break the tension, a look a releave swept acrossed his face as he saw Mr. Cowell re enter the office.

" Okay everyone I am sorry I'm late." He walked inside with a coffee in hand. " I see you ladies have met these wonderful gentlemen already." He smiled as he patted Sebastien on the shoulder.

Sebastien just smiled weakly at Simon not knowing what to say.

" If you don't mind me saying ladies, but I would like you girls to come with me, we have alot of preperations to do." Simon smiled towards Alex and Cyd. " You boys should go home and get some rest." He turned to look at the four men. " Come back Monday, where we will start working."

The boys nodded as they made their way towards the door way. Sebastien took a glance at Alex as he followed the other three out the door. He could see her looking at him, without any expression written on her face. He gave her a gentle smile, hoping to recieve one back, but failed as she turned her head to Simon.

" Now could you ladies acompany me to my office where we can start on some work?" Simon asked as he raised his hand towards the hallway.

" Oh certainly Mr. Cowell." Alex forced a smile on her face. " But can me and Cyd use the restroom first before starting our duties?" She asked kindly.

" Certainly ladies." Simon smiled gently at the two women. " The restroom is just right down left hallway." He replied pointing in the direction.

" Thank you." Alex smiled nicely at him as she grabbed Cyd's arm.

" But, I don't have to go." Cyd replied in confusion.

" Oh yes you do." Alex replied not letting go of Cyd's arm and pulling her into the hallway.

" No, I realy don't." Cyd replied trying to realease Alex's hand on her, still the look of confusion written across her face.

" Just come with me for a second." Alex whispered in Cyd's ear almost in rage.

Cyd had finally gave in and followed Alex to the restroom. Cyd realized something was wrong as she had to walk faster to try to catch up with Alex. She then knew this wasn't going to be good, and it must have to do something with her bringing Alex here to Paris.

" Okay Alex, what's this all about?" Cyd asked after Alex shut the restroom door behind her.

" What are you doing to me? Don't you know what happened to me and Sebastien?" Alex asked. Her words echoing in the restroom at her slightly raised voice.

" Alex what are you talking about?" Cyd asked as she crossed her arms across her chest.

" Don't play dumb with me!" Alex replied agrily. " You probably had all of this planned didn't you? You knew he was in the band so you suggested me for a job."

" Alex I thought it was okay between you two now!" Cyd replied, becoming a little irritated.

" Okay?! Okay?!" Alex repeated, she wasn't in the mood for games. " It's been six months and you think it will be okay?"

" Exactly Alex, it's been six months!" Cyd replied, her arms still folded. " You should be over this by now!"

" Well, I'm not! I haven't seen him since that day he came over to the house." Alex replied. " And now I have to see him 5 days a week, and take pictures of him!"

" Alex, it's not that bad." Cyd replied, her voice now softening. " But I do have a question for you."

" What?" Alex asked meeting Cyd's green eyes.

" Do you love him?" Cyd asked, her hand now placed on Alex's shoulder.

Alex didn't say anything, instead she looked down at the hard wooden floor. She was afraid that someone would ask her that one day, she didn't know the answer herself.

" I uh ...... I don't know." She replied quietly still looking down at the floor.

" Alex you must know, it's either yes or no." Cyd persisted.

" Cyd I honestly don't know. How could I still love someone who broke my heart?" Alex asked, she could feel herself becoming teary eyed. " He broke my heart. And I will never forget it."

" I'm sorry, Alex. Truly I am. But I need to know the answer to my question." Cyd repeated.

Alex stood there still looking at the floor as she thought about Cyd's question. Of course when she thought about Sebastien, she couldn't help but feel warm, and in reality she would be smiling inside. The first time she saw him she knew that she had something for him, but she couldn't place what it was at the time, but she did realized what it was,and that it she was falling for him. She was falling for him deeply.

" Yes, I do." Alex replied as she made contact with Cyd once more.

" Then why are you so angry about this?" Cyd asked placing her hands upon her hips.

" I think I'm just afraid he doesn't feel the same for me." Alex admitted as she nodded. " You know, it's obviouse by what he did to me. But, I'm just afraid he wouldn't want to become friends."

" Well, honey that's just how things are sometimes." Cyd replied. " But I have to tell you, I think Sebastien was very happy to see you."

" What?" Alex looked at Cyd, shock was in her expressions.

" Did you see the way he looked at you when you walked in to the room? He couldn't take his eyes off you!" Cyd beamed.

" I didn't see him when I walked inside the office, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't me he was looking at." Alex shook in disagrement.

" Well, who else would he be looking at?" Cyd giggled.

" So why did you want me to do this job?" Alex asked trying to take the topic off of her and Sebastien.

" I thought this could be the perfect oppurtunity for you guys to be friends again." Cyd shrugged. " And perhaps something more." She hinted.

" Well, I don't think that will happen." Alex stiffled a chuckle. " But I would like to be friends with him again. Even after what he did to me."

" So will you stay with the job?" Cyd asked, looking for an answer.

" Yes." Alex nodded. " I will give it a shot."
