Gotta Be You- A One Direction Love Story

Chapter 28 First Concert

Tonight is the first concert and I was so excited. Since there is so much going on this week, Brooke and Rose are staying with us. We were all hanging out in Zayn's apartment. The boys had an hour until they had to be at the venue and we were spending it together. They were all kind of in a daze, walking around humming or quietly singing one of their songs. All of us girls decided to make lunch for them before they left. The boys had picked what they wanted and we made it all. Niall made sure that there were no leftovers. Everybody was chatting excitedly about the first concert tonight. I smiled as I listened to the conversations. Niall and Rose were basically flirting, even though they had been together for a while. It was super cute to watch. Louis had his arms around Brooke as they talked with the others. Melissa was going to meet us at the concert because she had work today. Harry was goofing off with the others. I heard him fighting with Mandy about something the other day so I didn't know if she was coming to the concert tonight or not. I was praying that she wasn't because I had to put up with her the whole time if she came. The others had no problem ignoring her completely, but I seemed to be her favorite to talk to. I tried to answer as quick and short as possible, but she always kept bugging me because I was the only one that answered her. I couldn't stand that chick. I was cleaning up the kitchen. I grabbed a pan and submerged it in the soapy water that filled the sink. I started scrubbing but was interrupted by two strong arms that wrapped around me from behind. As Liam hugged me, he rested his head on my shoulder. My hands were covered in suds so I leaned my head against his momentarily and he spoke up. 

Liam: Hey babe. 

Me: Hello dear! Ready for the concert tonight? 

He stayed in the same position. 

Liam: I'm very excited, but a bit nervous. This is our first headlining tour. 

Me: You'll do great! 

I kissed his cheek and went back to the dishes, but his hands grasped my hips and spun me to face him. I let out a small squeal as soapy water splashed on the floor and onto us. 

Me: Look what you made me do! 

He smiled. 

Liam: We can clean it up later. 

He leaned in and pressed his lips firmly against mine. My arms wrapped around his neck and I crossed my wrists, trying to keep the suds from his hair. I kissed back willingly and it took a while before Zayn entered the kitchen and saw the mess. He was laughing as he spoke. 

Zayn: Look at the mess you two have made! 

We stopped kissing, but our faces were still inches apart. We smiled, first at each other and then at Zayn. I touched a sudsy finger to Liam's nose. 

Me: Well it was his fault. 

Liam: Me? 

He wiped the bubbles from his nose and I grabbed a towel. 

Me: We'll clean it up. 

I leaned over to wipe up the floor and Liam took the towel from me. 

Liam: I've got it. 

I smiled and thanked him with a kiss on the cheek before returning to the rest of the soiled dishes. Once the floor was cleaned up, Liam rolled up his sleeves to help me finish. We goofed off and flirted a bit. I loved every second that I was around him! Before long, it was time for the boys to go to rehearsal. Liam hugged me goodbye and was the first out the door. Niall kissed Rose softly and with a wave he was with the others. Louis kissed Brooke goodbye, but then she started kissing back and it didn't look like they were planning on stopping any time soon. They were interrupted by Zayn at the door.
