About The Boy

Jade's PoV
Everybody was happy for us, everybody was behind us 100%. Even my mum (who I had phoned up, since she was at home in South Shields) was supportive and told me how proud she was of me, who knew that world tour meant another six months out of the year I couldn't see her. And that was something I loved truly about her. And Sam, he couldn't be more pleased for me. Actually, I think besides the bands involved, he was perhaps the most excited for me to go on this tour.
"Really? So you'll be touring for a whole six months?" he asked when I got of the stage and jumped into his arms. He held me out, gazing into my face.
"Yeah, hope you don't mind that I didn't tell you, we had to keep it from everyone" I told him, as he set me down.
"Mind? Jade this is fantastic news! I'm so pleased for you!"
We kissed, rather passionately. I was so lucky to have found Sam. So lucky. He made me feel like the most important girl in the world. He understood when I couldn't make dates, or when unexpected interviews and press tours came up. Hell, he had the same issue. He was used to the paparazzi now, even embracing it. No other guy would be able to put up with all that, and still find time to be loving, caring, passionate, honest, and warm-hearted. He was the whole package, and I adored him with my whole heart.
"I love you Sam, so much, you know" I whispered. He looked at me, and smiled. "I know" he answered, and pecked my nose. "Love you too."
I heard a cough behind me.
Sam took this as his cue to leave - why I don't know - kissing my cheek before he dispersed into the crowd.
I turned round to discover who the source of the cough was, to find two figures, both clad in rather smart attire compared to their usual clothes.
"Hi, Jade" spoke the youngest. He had sandy blonde hair, and a gleaming lip ring. Luke Hemmings.
"Hiya Jade" said the other. He had wavy brown hair, hidden by a black hat, rather than the familiar bandana he always donned.
"Hi boys, looking very dapper" I told them. I reached out and popped Ashton's collar of his jacket.
"Thanks, you look stunning as always, Jadey" Ashton replied, flashing his pearly whites.
I narrowed my eyes.
"Okay, what do you want?"
The pair looked at each other, gobsmacked.
"We don't want anything! No, nothing at all!" Luke gasped, rather dramatically.
"How dare you accuse us with this . . . such . . . accusation!" Ashton mumbled.
I laughed, despite myself.
"Okay! I apologise" I chuckled.
"It's fine, we're just joking" Luke laughed, shrugging it off.
"Yeah, we just saw you over here, and felt like we hadn't been properly introduced" Ashton told me. God, their accents were really gorgeous - did I just think that? I mean, all Australian accents are quite nice . . .
"No I think you're right, we haven't really met before" I nodded, extending my hand to them. "I'm Jade."
Ashton grinned and shook it. He had a really nice smile. Again, what am I thinking?
"Nice to meet you, I'm Ashton and this is Luke." He gestured to his band mate, who flashed me a toothy grin. I reciprocated the smile, sweeping my hair from my eyes.
"We're in a band called 5 Seconds of Summer, you might have heard of it?" Luke added, continuing the act.
"Are you kidding, I love your band! What I Like About You is one of my favourite songs!" I exclaimed, truthfully.
They looked at each other, Ashton's oaky green eyes twinkling, like the shine on a diamond ring.
"Really? Oh, thanks! That means a lot!" he replied, rubbing his neck as he spoke, blushing a little. I couldn't help but find this adorable - although I really shouldn't of.
"You're in that group, Little Mix, aren't you? We love your song, About The Boy - we always jam to it at the start of gigs and things!" Luke explained.
Now it was my turn to blush.
"You do? Wow, that's really amazing" I stammered, smiling warmly at them both.
Suddenly, a brunette approached us, her large heels click-clacking on the hard, polished floor.
"Jade, you okay? You look flushed?" Jesy asked me, sounding concerned.
"What? No, I'm fine" I told her, getting redder. She looked between me and the boys, until I spotted a knowing look in her eye.
"Oh, okay" she sighed, slyly. "Well, the girls are looking for you - we're due on stage."
I raised my eyebrows, surprised.
"We are?"
"Yes, we're just going to sing one song- maybe Move - and then 5SOS are taking over."
As she said that, she suddenly realised who the two boys were, and she swivelled her head to look at them.
"Oh hi! Huge, huge fans!" she gushed. The pair went red again, nervously shuffling on their feet. Jesy was a gorgeous girl, especially tonight. Whereas I wore a black Stella McCartney crepe gown, she wore an ASOS cutout mini bodycon dress. And looked incredible in it. Like seriously jaw-droppingly incredible.
I smiled. Jesy may not have been very confident when I met her, but she had grown to become a fierce and sexy role model, and I drew inspiration from everything she did.
"C'mon Jade! We're on in like 5 minutes!" she snapped me out of my daydream. Apparently I'd missed a whole conversation between her and the boys.
"Okay, okay" I replied, beginning to follow her backstage. "See you boys later!"

We didn't sing Move. We performed About The Boy instead. The girls were fantastic as usual, however at the end we couldn't help but get caught up in a moment of delirium, and found ourselves breaking into a bout of laughter.
"Thank you guys! You can see and hear more of that, just come along to the tour!" Leigh-Anne cried, as we finished.
We were showered in applause as we walked backstage, only to be greeted by the 5SOS boys.
"You guys were amazing, truly incredible" Calum spouted, in awe. We all smiled, grateful for the appreciation.
I turned to Ashton, who was already looking at me.
"Ironic, isn't it? We sang About The Boy before you perform - no need to listen to it on CD or anything."
He laughed; an infectious laugh.
"Yeah, thanks for that" he chuckled. "Feel all hyped up now."
We stood in a comfortable silence, watching Zayn congratulate Perrie in the most adorable of ways ever.
"So, Jade, there's something I want to tell you" Ashton began, lolling down at the ground. Was he anxious? What did he want to tell me? Well, I didn't get to find out, not at the right time anyway. Leigh-Anne approached me. All the Little Mix boyfriends had found us, and Leigh-Anne had noticed Sam was nowhere around. Funny, I hadn't.
"Jordan told me he saw Sam just before we came off stage. He's just outside" she told me, grinning. "You should go find him."
I flashed Leigh-Anne a thankful smile, and left to go find my lovely boyfriend. What a terrible mistake that was.
