Scene 6 :
Niall, after meeting the boys turns towards Diana and Louis introduces them to each other. The scene is continued in first person from Diana’s view
“Neil, this is Diana and she is from Bloomberg and have come to interview us, which we are being and this is a little setup here for charity purpose.”
*How are things so perfectly falling into pieces. I had no big expectations for this interview as I know how private they all have being in past seven to eight years. Yet getting to interview two of the band members and here comes the third seems so surreal. I am just pondering over my thoughts and just standing there adoring Niall and looking into those blue eyes hearing a distant voice, that he is calling me*
“Helloo”, Niall called.
“Dianaa, Love? Did we loose you ? Heyyaa”, Louis snapped while calling me and I was in my own thoughts trying to just get myself back.
“Hello Diana”, Niall just shouted this time and I Snapped back again into the real zone.
I saw them looking at me, smiling and I am being cool with all the fun making as I have lost the track, I have embarrassed myself today.
“Oh, I am sorry. Hi Niall, I am so pleased to meet you”, I realised I just called him by his first name. I am surpassing all the ethics of journalism here and I don’t care now.
“Nice to meet ya”, Niall replied and offered a hand shake.
“Diana, I have a complaint with Bloomberg and can I register it with you?”
“yes, Sure”, I answered nervously
“BloomBerg prints the worst picture of me in their cover. I have like 50 done for them and they pick the worst of the lot. I don’t even look adorable in those” Niall asked by folding his hands.
“That can’t be true, Niall, there isn’t any bad pictures of you. Come on”, I replied
“Actually, that is true. Isn’t he adorably cutest”, Louis caress him and signals us all to take seats
“Tommo, you could have just informed me about this interview. Now again a picture of me in a purple hoodie will do its round.”
“Oh Neil, get over yourself. There isn’t any shoot, alright!”, Louis replied in heavy Irish accent
*They seated themselves on the couch with Louis on left, Liam in middle and Niall on right hand for me*
“Has Veronica reached?” Niall asks Liam.
“Yes, reached already”, replied Liam
“I will just meet Veronica and come back”, Niall said to Louis.
“No, Veronica is busy. You will get to hang with her later”, Louis commands Niall
“Okay, Tell me Diana what you want to know”, Niall looks at me all the while catching me in between while pondering on who Veronica is.
“Sure Niall, I will start with asking you how are you feeling with your tour being started in a month from now?”
“Pretty Excited. This time it is a close to home, Europe tour. It will be for 20 days exactly and have three to four big venues. Expecting these lads in one of the shows too. Hoping to put a descent show”
“Niall’s tour always has some highlights everyday and I would say he has a major of male audience too”, Liam added
“That’s lovely, So what differences are there when you tour now with when you used to tour with One direction , Niall?”
“A hell lot of differences”, Niall Pauses and then says “A clean bus tops all though” , he smiles while looking at Liam and Louis
“Be careful , Nialler”, Louis warns him.
“When I was on my first tour post Hiatus, I had to learn waking up to alarm because when we used to go together , Tommo used to wake up first and would decide to shout for no particular reason. From one end to the other fucking end of bus, he used to be so loud, even in hotels, such that I never required any assistance from alarm clock“
Liam starts to laugh and said ,”Agreed”. Louis puts on his sassy face and rolls his eyes on Niall.
“So I had to adjust to It and then Liam,here used to force everyone to have breakfast quick so that no one misses it and become cranky on the way, so all of this I had to look for me self which made me more responsible. So after all this overwhelming responsibilities, when I used to go on stage and all the while adjusting to yellow gone, suddenly there is no blue, green and red either. From a four British and one Irish: band, you are like there is an Irish with blonde hair trying to figure it out. Actually, all of them, looked after me so much that I couldn’t bear to stand there and be responsible for me self that quick. It was harsh”, Louis and Liam smiling looking at Niall while he continued,” These boys here and who are not here used to hype me when I was low or used to cover whenever I missed beats or pitch, so there was this ambiance you know where I feared nothing and then there is this where it was all new for me. So yes, you say it is damn different and difficult to do everything again”
“But one thing is constant Niall, your guitar”, Louis said.
“Thank god for that”,he replied
*Niall is still that non fearing, loud, young boy at heart who adores his friends as everything. The way Louis and Liam looks at him speaking , with that proud eyes, makes me feel of how still protective of him they are, given that he himself his a father now.*
“According to critics of the music industry, you have been discovered when you became a solo artist rather than while you were in band. Do you agree about that”, I asked
“I would like to rephrase it as I was more confident about the music I made after my second album which brought me more attention. I think as I was doing the genre which I am good at made me reach more truthfully. In the band we had a mix of all, so you might be not in limelight always, so maybe critics must have felt that way but then if this is the case where is my fucking Grammy?”
“It is on its way, Well you were nominated for three times which is also not so easy”
“Fingers crossed, was just kidding by the way.”
“Or we can name the new baby, Grammy”, Liam told Niall while keeping his hands on Niall’s shoulder.
“No, we already named the baby ‘Cup’, so we can call ‘Davis Cup’ together”, Louis said it air quoting it
“Ahahaha, yes that would be sick”, Niall laughed which he is famous for and I felt the old times back.
Looking at a puzzled me, Niall told,” I am pregnant, I mean, my wife and I are pregnant and that is what these idiots are telling about”
“That’s so lovely, Congratulations Niall”, I replied
“Thanks dear!”
“Davis Cup is so wicked, considering that Ashley is from tennis”, Louis added and they laugh all together.
*Louis again got a call and he checks his phone*
“Did you reach?”, Louis answers the phone. “Ok, good for you, love. Wait for me, I am coming down”. He shows his phone screen to Liam and Niall and they nod to him. Louis excuses himself and walks out of room and talks to someone on phone while going down through staircase.
*I can distantly hear someone else talking on phone walking through the corridors *
“Yea Babe, Coming down”, I hear the voice and it gives me goosebumps as it becomes more clear. “Is Noor asleep? Alright Babe” hearing this I turn more to look and saw a glimpse of someone I couldn’t believe was here all this fucking time.
