Haleys POV

Today is the day. Today is the concert.

It's been months and I've waited for this day. It has to be perfect!

It was about 2 hours till we had to leave and I decided to go ahead and get ready.

I picked my outfit, which consisted of black high-waisted shorts, a white 5sos shirt, and Galaxy vans.

Then, I started on my makeup. I wanted to look good, so I went all out.

I applied foundation all over my face, highlighting and contouring my face. I did winged black eyeliner on my eye with top and bottom mascara. I applied a bit of blush, and to finish off the look, red lipstick.

And for my hair I curled it and did a waterfall braid.

I looked at myself in the mirror and I was very pleased with how I looked.

_____________

The cafe ride to the venue was very stressful.

As we got closer and closer my heart raced faster and faster.

I wonder if Luke knew I was coming?

I hadn't seen Luke since we kissed, and that's didn't go too well. My mind was racing thinking of all the negative possibilities that could happen. But I had to push those aside. I was going to have fun tonight, no matter what.

"You ready?" Zoey asked as she Parked the car.

"As ready as I'll ever be." I said stepping out into the hot summer air.

When we got inside we made our way to our seats.

I never imagined that I would get to sit front row at a concert again! I was so close to the stage.

We waited impatiently for them to come out. It seemed like it was forever, until the lights started to go down.

All of a sudden they rise from the stage. The entire place goes crazy, including me.

"You ready for an awesome show tonight Dallas?" Calum yelled, which earned screams from everyone.

I couldn't help but take my eyes off Luke, who was standing right in front of me.

I waited for him to look at me. But he didnt. Maybe he hasn't noticed me yet, is what I told myself.

But all the other guys smiled at me and waved to me, why was Luke being weird?

Through the whole concert I stared at Luke. I couldn't help it. I wanted him to notice me so badly!

This brought back memories from the last concert.

I Remember going in thinking Luke will see me because I'm in the front row, but I never dreamed that I'd get to know him on a person level, I never expected to be his girlfriend at one point either.

"Thank you Dallas, we had an amazing time with you tonight!" Luke said waving and smiling.

"Thank you guys, you are all beautiful!" Call said blowing the crowd a kiss.

"Goodnight Dallas!" They all yelled At the same time and disappeared under the stage.

"I-I can't believe he didn't even notice me." I said sitting down on the seat behind me.

"Haley-" I cut her off.

"Let's go home." I said trying to shake off my sadness.

Everyone else stayed in their places, but I started to leave. I didn't want to cry in public.

"Haley wait!" She called after me, but I was lost in the aisle of girls.

But that's when I heard Luke's voice.

"Is this thing on? okay, so there is one more song that we would like to play for you."

I looked around and up on the stage, but no sign of Luke.

"There is also one special girl who will be sung to up on stage, but we have to find her first."

The lights got dark and all you see is Luke coming up from the stage with his guitar in his hand.

"Now as I sing this song, someone will be picked." He said starting to sing.

Six weeks since I've been away
And now you're sayin' everything has changed
And I'm afraid that I might be losing you
And every night that we spend alone
It kills me thinking of you on your own
And I wish I was back home next to you

Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

There was a pause in the music as Calum, Michael, and Ashton appeared on the sides of the front row. By now I was moving back to my seat. The security held all the girls back and they made their way towards me. They took my hands and led me to the stage, and sat me on a stool right next to Luke.

Late night calls and another text
Is this as good as we're gonna get?
Another timezone taking me away from you
Living dreams in fluorescent lights
While you and I are running out of time
But you know that I'll always wait for you

Oh, everyday
You feel a little bit further away
And I don't know what to say

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

On the phone
I can tell that you wanna move on
Through the tears
I can hear that I shouldn't have gone
Every day gets harder to stay away from you
So tell me...

Are we wasting time
Talking on a broken line?
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers

Wasting time
Talking on a broken line
Telling you I haven't seen your face in ages
I feel like we're as close as strangers
Won't give up
Even though it hurts so much
Every night I'm losing you in a thousand faces
Now it feels we're as close as strangers

Six months since I went away
And I know everything has changed
But tomorrow I'll be coming back to you

Luke looked into my eyes the rest of the song. I was crying by the time the song was over.

I stood up and jumped into his arms. He held me tightly, like he was never going to lose me again. And, if I could help it, he won't ever lose me agin.
