Here's chapter five!

"Oh, how I wish that was me." the song ended and all the guys were talking on stage.
"Guys?" I asked, standing up.
"What's wrong?" Liam asked, walking over to the edge of the stage. Steph and Kara followed me to the stage where the guys pulled us up.
"I just got this email from a friend of mine. You should probably listen to this." I said, pulling my headphones and hitting play.
"So tell me girl if every time we touch
You get this kinda rush."
"It's been leaked? Who sent that to you?" Liam asked.
"A friend I met at one of your signings. Steph and Kara got emails, too." I said.
"Paul!" the guys yelled into their mics, knowing he would hear.
Paul and several other security guys ran onto the stage. "What's wrong?"
"Songs have been leaked off our album." Niall said.
"When?" Paul asked.
"We don't know. One of their friends sent it to them." Liam said.
Paul sighed, "Keep rehearsing, I'll take care of it."
"Okay." The guys sighed as the crew set up five pieces of equipment in a circle in the middle of the stage.
Steph and I squealed, then slid off the stage to sit back down in the "audience." Kara sat beside me.
"Your hand fits in mine like its made just for me." Zayn started.
"I can't believe this is really happening. They're right there, and we're the only ones here." Steph said.
"Somebody pinch me." Kara said.
Steph and I laughed, then pinched her.
"Ow!" Kara said, "I was joking!"
We shushed her and looked on stage at the guys who were giving us weird looks, then went back to focusing on the song.
An idea hit me, and I nudged Steph and Kara. "Make faces. See if we can make them laugh."
They grinned, and we began our mission.
Niall noticed us first during Liam’s solo and tried to contain his laughter while Zayn and Liam sang the chorus. Zayn noticed us as Louis began singing and joined in with Niall’s silent laughter. Harold, the poor fellow, noticed us during his solo, but he managed to sing the entire solo and his chorus with Niall without messing up. Louis noticed us and began making faces back, causing Liam to glance our way. Once Liam’s head turned, we all stopped suddenly and began singing along with Niall, "You never loved yourself half as much as I love you."
Louis, Zayn, and Harry’s jaws dropped at our amazing acting skills. Liam just looked at the rest of the lads funny, wondering why they’d been laughing. Niall was having difficulties finishing his solo because he was trying not to crack up at us making faces behind Liam’s back. It came time for Harry’s solo, then all the lads finished out the song.
"That is so not fair!" Niall exclaimed as soon as the music stopped.
"What?" I asked, innocently.
"I don’t understand what was so funny. They were singing." Liam said.
"While you were looking!" Harry said.
Steph, Kara, and I climbed up onto the stage.
"They were making faces at us while we were singing!" Louis said.
