My heart was beating out of my chest.
Tonight is the biggest night of my entire life. Tonight I'm playing Wembley arena in London.
I've wanted to play this venue ever since I was a small little child. I've seen countless numbers of my favorite artists in this arena, and now it's my turn.
"Harry mate, are you ok? You look a little green?"
Niall says as he sits down on the couch across from me.
We're I'm the green room backstage, about 45 minutes before we're supposed to go on.
"Yeah yeah I'm ok."
I can't let these guys know I'm nervous. We're all kind of on edge right now anyways.
"Just checking in mate. Hey Zayn, could you get me a water?" Says Niall
Zayn throws a water in Niall's face.
"Hey mate I didn't say throw it at me!"
Zayn laughs and walks away. I don't know how he can be so happy at a time like this.
Suddenly, Louis, Liam, and our tour manager, Rowan, walks in.
"Hey guys…I've got some bad news." Rowan says.
All of the boys pile onto the couch I'm sitting on.
"Midnight memories has been knocked off the #1 spot worldwide…we're at #4."
The whole group looks shocked.
"I- how could that happen?" Liam questions.
"I'll tell you how, it's because of bloody Viola innit?" Zayn says.
Viola Taylor. She's the hottest new artist in the industry. For the last 5 months, she's been taking everything we've worked so hard for.
She's taken out #1 song spot about 3 times, beaten us in every award category, and now she's taken our #1 album spot.
"Unfortunately…yes." Rowan answers.
"How?" I ask.
"She just makes good music I guess." Says Rowan.
"Right she does!! Her album 'Red' was the most brilliant thing I've heard in a while..filled with such passion and soul, it was a great project." Niall says.
Everyone stares at him.
"Oh shut up Niall." Zayn says.
"Well how are we going to beat her?" Louis questions.
"I'll think of something, I promise. But for right now, it's show time! Go out there and rock it boys!" Rowan says.
We all head out of the green room and go backstage feeling discouraged. How are we supposed to perform after this?
"Ok guys. Let's rock it" I say.
