Forget Me Not (Nouis)

47th Petal: You and I

"Ni, are you ready?"

I whipped my head to the side and saw Crissy on the door, his face a mix of nervousness and happiness but no worries, I bet my face looks worse. I mean, c'mon, we're going to hijack a One Direction concert, a One Direction Concert, for pete's sake! I don't even know where did I had the courage to do this!

"I-I, uh, think so?"

He pursed his lip and in a matter of seconds, his face suddenly looks more decided. "Why do you sound so unsure? C'mon, give me a braver, bolder 'yes'!"

I pinched my nose, shook my head a little and let out a big sigh before answering a somewhat still unsure, "Yes, I'm ready." but satisfied Crissy so I guess it's okay.

He pulled me out of the dressing room then and we crossed paths with several staffs who look at us skeptically, wondering why I'm  here. I felt a little pang on my chest, feeling unwelcomed in a concert I was supposed to be a part of. I shrugged it away though. This isn't the time to get sad and pity myself. What I'm going to do is really... stupid. And I still need to worry about that.

We were now on the backstage and I can hear the fans screaming, the music blaring, the boys singing. My heart is pounding rhythmically with the music. Wait, is this a good sign or what?

The director, one ofthe few selected ones who know about my plans, handed me a mic before giving me a thumbs up. I smiled nervously at him and took a breath. I nodded at the director, a queu that it's time.

The music suddenly stopped, the band have been informed beforehand and they support me totes.

Fans stopped screaming. Shouts became murmurs, wondering what happened. Liam was quick to supply an answer, "Okay, I think we're currently experiencing a technical problem."

"What happened? What is it?" I heard Harry asking probably the band.

Not one of the boys know what I'm going to do. This is a surprise. For them, for the fans, for Louis.

I cleared my throat before taking the steps on the stairs towards the stage. The fans gasped when then they saw me and I immediately shushed them by doing that zip thing you do, like you're zipping your mouth. I still her a few murmurs but no screaming and I'm thankful for that. The boys still haven't seen me. I saw Louis on the other side, scratching the back of his head.

Okay. This is it Niall. Do it before they see you or there won't be the element of surprise anymore.
So I did.

"I figured it out,"

After the first word- I- the fans started screaming crazily immediately and the boys all turned their heads, searching for the source of the voice singing a capella.

"I figured it out from black and white,"

They're all slack jawed when they saw me, stunned at my sudden appearance and suddenly I feel proud for catching them off guard.

Louis stared at me intently and I can't figure out his facial expression. Doesn't he like it?

"Seconds and hours, maybe they had to take some time.."

I waited for Liam but it seems like he's too dumbfounded to sing his part so I started again.

"I know how it goes, I know how it goes from wrong and right,"
