IS IT LOVE? CTH

The Concert.

I stood pressed up against the hard barrier looking up at the stage which stood perfectly in my eye view. I had politely turned down the offer from Calum to stay in the backstage wings and watch them as I knew the only company I would be having is from Olivia. I held to the backstage pass around my neck remembering Calum gave it to me and draping it over my head saying to me...

"If it gets to hectic out there or you want to come back at any time before or after the show just show the security guard this and he will show you the way"

I stared down at it. VIP PRIVATE GUEST is what was printed in bold black writing. I couldn't believe that Calum had an actual girlfriend. Instant guilt washed over me as I remember the night we met, spooning and hickeys from a topless Calum ran through my head. How long has he been with her? What on earth was he doing dropping flirty comments and leading me on like that?

Then all my worries and doubts were taken away as the lights dimmed, my skin tingled as I could feel the crowds anxiety rising throughout the stadium. Then four boys walked on stage, Irwin, Clifford, Hemmings and of course Hood. My eyes were fixated on Calum's as he walked on stage looking cool and relaxed, then as they took their places the all familiar chord to 'She Looks So Perfect' struck. The crowd of mainly girls went crazy, screaming along to the tune and surging forward making my body press even harder into the barrier. Luke stepped forward and pressed his lips to the microphone.

"Simmer down, simmer down.
They say we're too young now to amount to anything else..." he sand staring into the crowd.

I felt my heart flutter as I adoringly stared up to the bass player who stood on my right. He's got a girlfriend stop it! I shouted at myself in my head, but I couldn't control the feeling to sing along and fan girl with the rest of the younger teens. The chorus came and the crowd (including me) belted it out at the top of our lungs. After the song finished Luke never even took a breath before the boys started playing another one of their tunes.

I knew the gig was coming to an end as Luke took a long drink of water and walked to the microphone, sweat covering his forehead.

"Sheffield do you think you can stand one more?" he smiled combing his hair with his fingers. The crowd shouted back an obvious response of wanting more, I still managed to keep my space at the front.

"Thank you for being a great crowd, now here's Don't Stop!"

As soon as he said that Ashton pounds the drums, Michael furiously strummed his guitar and Calum plucked the strings of his bass.

"You're coming close now, swear I can taste it..." Calum sang catching my eye, I stopped dancing around like a fool and stared back at him. He spent the rest of the song glancing over at me, smirking he knew he was embarrassing me so I chose to ignore his seductive stares and carried on dancing and singing along.

Then the song came to an end as the guitar chords and chimes of symbols faded.

"Thank you Sheffield, you have been an amazing crowd!" Ashton shouted into his microphone gazing into the crowd of adoring fans. Then the quickly made there way off the stage, a chant of 'encore' filling the place. This was one of the best nights of my life.

When I got backstage there stood the boys with Scott's band, Olivia and a few crew members all grinning ear to ear with bottles of beer. As soon had Calum spotted me his grin became wider.

"MIA!" Calum shouted, making his way over to me and pulling me in for a sweaty hug.

"Whatcha think?" He said smiling cockily.

"Uh it was great" I played it cool.

"Thanks darling" Calum said.

He pulled me towards the others so I was apart of their conversation. I felt insecure next to Olivia. She had a perfect style in clothing and also flawless skin. No wonder Calum was in love with her. Who wouldn't be?

I'm sorry that part was really crappy, it was just a filler part.
