Petals End (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 1

A./N.: Okay this story is based on something I dreamed the other night. It was a lot of fun to write, and the people in it- Elena and Alex, and of course myself- are real people. While keeping their characters pretty accurate, I changed a few things in order for the story to work. I have the whole story ready, so that's a plus! The only thing is that I wrote it out by hand, so I have to type everything into my Laptop first. Enjoy!

E L E N A

"You owe me big time"Elena stated with a sour face.

"I know, I know! And I love you for doing this. Maybe we can listen to a 'Rise Against' concert together or something like that." "We better."

Charlotte laughed. "Cheer up a bit. We going to see One Direction in a few minutes, live in concert. And we are first freaking row!" She squealed a little. Elena just rolled her eyes, but inside, she was happy for her best friend. If only she would shut up about-

"Harry! Oh my god. I will see him! And more importantly, he will see me! Maybe he will look into my eyes and fall deeply in love with me." Elena scoffed. "Sure."

The opening act – 5 Seconds Of Summer – had already finished and left the stage. Now it was time for One Direction.

The lights dimmed again and spotlights focused on the middle of the stage. "It's happening! It's happening!" Charlotte and hundreds of other fans started screaming.

"I am going to be deaf after this" Elena concluded as the boys walked onto the stage. "Why, good God why did I let myself be persuaded to come here?" They started playing 'Up All Night'. Elena only knew this because Charlotte had forced her to listen to One Direction music the whole way to Manchester. Both of them were actually from London, but that show had been sold out, so they drove to Manchester in Elena's old Prius and booked a cheap motel.

"You're giving me a heart attack, looking like you do-o!"

You are giving me a heart attack with all these screaming girls and pyrotechnics, Elena thought.

But soon enough, she found herself having fun to the Singing-at-the-top-of-her-lungs Charlotte. She had to admit that the music was kind of catchy. So far, none of the lads had looked into their direction, but according to Charlotte, it could only be a matter of time.

'One Way Or Another' proved her right. During the chorus, Harry Styles leaned towards them and looked them right into the eyes as he sang "I'm gonna find you, I'm gonna get you, get you, get you, get you" Elena was intrigued by his green eyes and the mop of curly hair.

But he was still as ugly as always when Charlotte showed her countless pictures. Besides her, said blonde was probably fainting or something like that. But to Elena's surprise, Charlotte was smiling up at Harry and even winked at him.

And Harry winked back.

Then he gave one of the security guards a sign and they were handed backstage passes. The concert continued pretty normal after that, with an occasional smile from Harry and a tight hand squeeze from Charlotte.

When One Direction played their last song – What Makes You Beautiful – giant balls were put on the crowd and pushed around, together with the red and silver confetti that was raining down.  After most people had poured out of the stadium, the two went to the stage and flashed their passes to the security. They were led to a spacious room with plush couches and tables with food on them.

More importantly though, the five members of One Direction were lounging around. Zayn was scribbling something on a notebook, Niall was stuffing himself with chips, Liam was checking his phone, Louis was brushing his hair, and Harry- Harry was staring intently at them. Charlotte gave a small wave, Elena just nodded.

"Hey, I'm Charlotte, and this is one of my best friends Elena. Nice to meet you all!" Elena could see that she was trying very hard to keep her fangirling under control, and so far, she was doing a good job at it.

Harry smiled and said: "Yeah, I invited them here. Especially Charlotte seemed to have so much fun, that I just couldn't resist these pretty ladies." He gave them a cheeky grin. The other band members greeted them and went back to their activities. It happened sometimes that a band member would bring people behind the stage.

"So, where are you from?" asked Harry. "We're from Bristol, but moved to London for College. There weren't any tickets left for the London show, so we went to Manchester. We're old enough anyway, Elena turned 18 five months ago and I did last month."

"Nice. So did you like today's show?" Charlotte nodded eagerly. "It was amazing. I really enjoyed 'Moments', and of course 'One Way Or Another'." He turned to Elena. "And you?" "Well, it was better than I expected it to be, but this is not really my genre." "I can see that."

Elena was clad in black with leather boots and a studded belt. Charlotte on the other hand, had skinny blue jeans and a turquoise T-Shirt with butterflies on it. While Elena's hair was dark brown and straight, Charlotte's was light blond and wavy. She had natural make-up on, and Elena had catty eyelashes and dark shades.

Harry glanced at his watch. "I'm sorry, but you gotta go now. Maybe we can exchange numbers?" They agreed, and the two girls left.

The hours that followed were slow and painful for Elena. Charlotte could not or would not stop talking about Harry and the future she imagined them having. "So our children will be called Nathaniel, Edward, and Lucy, like the literary characters, but also like the Beatles song and after Harry, and just because I like that name. And we will have a music room in our basement and-"

"No! Stop! It is enough now. I get that you're incredibly happy that we got to talk to Harry and the others, but please, I cannot stand one more word about him." Elena interrupted her. Charlotte's face flushed. "I'm sorry, I'm just so excited. And obviously I know that this will never happen in real life, but it is nice to think about it, you know? Anyway, let's sleep now, this was an exhausting day."

A./N.: So that was the first chapter! I hope you liked it =) Please don't hate on Charlotte, she is not superficial or anything, just sweet (because i can already see all those 'basic bitch' comments coming). Apart from that, please do comment! Tell me what you liked, what you did not like, and maybe your overall opinion. It would make me really happy. Picture on the side is Charlotte at the concert. Love, Char x
