Bonus Chapter: (Hannah) Meeting The Wanted

Bonus Chapter (Slight relation to fic)

The first time Hannah met The Wanted

Gemma called me up at 9 last night, panicking because Lucy was ill and she needed someone to go with her to the Wanted's single signing, cause her mum wouldn't let her queue up at 4am for a wristband, even though she was nearly 18.

My mum's not like that. She's less strict, so when I asked, she said "Fine, text me a few times, yeah?"

So that's how I ended up, on a Sunday, for Christ's sake, stood outside HMV, at 5:20am, freezing to death.

"Thank you again!" Gemma squealed. The girls infront of us had gotten here at 12am, and the girls infront of them had camped out.

"It's fine!" I smiled at her. "I like them, anyway!"

"Yeah, but you're not a massive fanor anything..."

"Well? They're awesome!" I smiled wider at her. "Really, it's fine. I'm your friend!"

3 hours later, the doors opened and we all were let through. I had to buy a copy of the single as well as getting a wristband, so I took a little longer than Gemma.

She texted Lucy, who apparently had burst into tears at the fact that he'd caught Tonsilitus on one of the only chances she could meet Jay.

Jay was my personal, secret favourite too. The others didn't know that, of course. I'm not really open about who I like, so I didn't tell them.

We arrived back at HMV for 4, even though the signing started at 5.

Surprisingly, there was only about 50 of the 500 people they were letting in there.

As we queued, around 300 people flocked in and joined the queue.

We waited for what felt like years, Gemma letting me read the fanbook she'd organised.

There was a lot of attention on the Jay page, probably from Lucy.

They arrived in a recognisable silver van.

We all started shaking with excitement.

I prefer bands like The Script or My Chemical Romance, but The Wanted were definitely creeping up on my list of favourite bands.

People began to filter in at quarter to 5, which Gemma said was unusual. We made it inside, just fitting through the door where the signing would be held.

Screams arrived every 5-6 minutes, but the loudest screams were heard at 5:34pm.

We all unleashed our vocals as the 5 most attractive boys in the room entered, took a (rather cheeky) bow on stage, did some paparazzi and shiz, then sat down behind the white HMV-tableclothed table.

Tears welled up in Gemma's eyes, but a second later she was fine. Her hands were shaking so much that her single and fanbook were violently convulsing.

"You ready?" I asked as the girls infront of us went up to be signed.

"Yes."

"How many, girls?" The security woman asked.

"Two." She nodded and gestured us forward. Gemma ran onto the stage-platform-thing, and I followed tentively.

Tom was nearest to us. We gave our singles to security, who placed them onto the table, ready to have the insert signed.

"You alright, then?" He asked me, looking up after he'd signed Gemma's.

"I'm good. This was a last minute decision, so I'm tired!"

"Tell me about it!" He laughed, signing my single. The queue moved. "Well, see you later, yeah?" I nodded, moving up.

Nathan.

"Hey!" He said, beaming at me. Nathan was actually stunning in person.

"Hi there." I said. "Having a good day?"

"No!" He said, grimacing. "It's been awful; I swear, if I have to ride 6 hours in a squashed car ever again..."

"Ugh, you're telling me! I had to drive my Aunt to Glasgow. Took just over 14 hours."

"Oh God." He said, wincing for me. "There you go, babe. Have a good day!" He slid my single along the table.

I shuffled with the queue.

"Oh my god." I breathed as the wonderful person that is Jay McGuiness appeared infront of me.

"Hiya!" He greeted, finishing Gemma's single. "You alright?"

"I'm excellent, thanks." I felt my face heat up as I opened my mouth. "Can I please have a hug?"

Jay looked around. "Quick, before security see!" He murmered, leaning across. I laughed and hugged him tight.

"Thank you so so so so so much!" I said. He smiled.

"It's fine! Free Hugs for all!" The front of the crowd behind me heard and cheered. Jay laughed and signed my single. "See you later!"

Siva was next, his Irish charm almost touchable.

"Siva!" I chirped. I loved Seev! He's an awesome man.

"Hello!" He chirped back, Irish accent knocking me off my feet. "What's your name?"

"I'm Hannah!"

"Ooh, we've had a few Hannah's today!" He said, signing my single. "Must be a popular name."

"Must be!" I said, before smiling and moving to the last member.

"'Iya." Max said as I reached him.

"Hullo!" I smiled at him, the overwhelming urge to pat his head nearly overtaking me.

"You al'ight?"

"I'm good. Bit sweaty now; it's boiling in here!"

"You're al'ight, you 'aven't got to sit here for 3 hours!"

"True! Good luck!" He smiled warmly at me as I took the single off the table and bounced off.

Once we passed security and made it outside, Gemma let her tears escape.

"Sorry..." She sobbed. "I don't normally cry, it's just, they were all so nice, and Lucy would've loved it, and you're such a good friend!"

I laughed, guiding her to KFC.

"So, did you give them the fanbook?" I asked, leading the way to the counter.

I'd fallen in love with Jay. It was official.
