Gotta be you... because nobody compares

Traffic

---Liam's POV---

We were at the arena. Today consisted of me at the gym, lifting weights, and running on the treadmill for an hour or so. Today also consisted of me running some more from the gym to the bus, due to fans chasing me.

I hadn't seen Adelaide since the morning. After I sent Niall with the gifts, I left to give Adelaide some breathing room. Niall said she left to take a walk after they chatted for a bit. I kept asking him what she had said. If she told him about her decision.... Me or Harry? Niall was being a butt... he kept saying You'll have to wait and see mate. Did he not know how much that was driving me crazy? I wanted to know. 

"Please, Niall, I won't tell her you told me. I just really have to know before I face her again" I pleaded.

"Listen lad, in all honestly, I don't really know myself... but she did leave this one clue," he leaned in toward me, "It's all in her music," I knew her plan, she was going to give me her answer through her music. She still was nowhere in sight, her performance was in a few minutes. 

Suddenly, I got a text. I was dreading it being Danielle, I didn't need any negativity. However, It was from Adelaide.

From:Adelaide <3- Hey, I'm stuck in traffic. Took a Taxi around the city... bad Idea. I don't think I'll make it in time... the highway is PACKED. WHAT DO I DO?!?!

Shit, not only was she gonna miss another performance... but I wasn't going to be able to hear her answer!! I had to talk to management about this. I ran up to Samuel, who was looking at his clipboard. 

"Does anyone know where Adelaide is?!?!" He screamed at passerbys. 

"Sam," I showed him the text. His eyes widened. He squeezed the bridge of his nose with his thumb and index finger. He was trying to think of ways to fix this. he snapped his fingers. "I got it! boys, you perform first, and when she comes in she can do the closing act. Do y'all mind?" He looked at the other boys. They all shook their heads.

"The fans wouldn't mind... alot of them love her. She's amazing!" Harry spoke up, I just stared him down. Ass. 

"Ok, well get going... explain to the fans what's gonna happen." We all nodded. I was grateful I was gonna find out her answer after all.

---Harry's POV---

I had been texting Adelaide all day. And when I say I have been... I mean, she hasn't texted back. I decided to text one last time before we went up to perform. 

To: Kitten <3- So have you decided? Please, I just want you to be mine, and me be yours. Please Kitten, tell me.

I placed my phone down at the table, instantly getting a text back...

From: Kitten <3- You'll have to wait and see Harry. Just listen to my song. Whenever I get there. and listen to every word I say while I'm onstage. goodluck on your performance. xo.

XO??? hugs and kisses... that meant she picked me!! right? Please let that be it.  

We went out to the stage. The fans were all screaming and chanting our name. Some girls were screaming "where's addy?" They wanted to see her. They wanted to know what her feelings of the day were. 

"Adelaide's having some car trouble right now guys... as in her car is having trouble getting through traffic." Louis said, laughing at his own joke while dancing his stop the traffic... let 'em through dance.

"We're gonna perform first, and when she gets here she'll perform after us. How does that sound?"

Some girls booed, while others cheered. I just wanted to get this concert over with so that I could hear what Adelaide's decision was. We sang our songs and joked around, but everytime I'd get quiet... My mind would just drift back to Adelaide. 

During one of our intermissions, we ran backstage for some water. I caught glimpse of my Kitten, she was sitting at one of the mirrors that were alligned the wall. The lightbulbs surrounding the frame were illuminating her beauty. She was looking nervous, fidgeting with her fingers. I knew she was very nervous. She took out her inhailer, the doctor had prescribed it for her while at the hospital. She took a deep breath and looked in the mirror. She caught me staring at her. A soft smile forming on her lips. She gave a small wave through the reflection. I waved back. After a minute, she got up and walked towards the restrooms. 

The rest of our performances went by fast. We laughed and joked some more. Niall did one of his famous jumps, he feared he ripped his jeans. It was a funny situation. He didn't... but the way he looked for that second was Hilarious! 

After we were done, it was time for Adelaide to come out and perform. Everybody stayed in their seats, they loved hearing what Adelaide had to say. Since she usually sang about her feelings... people usually heard her out so that they could be in the loop of what's going on with us. 

We were in Dallas, so alot of her friends from San Antonio showed up. Holding signs saying Adelaide we're proud of you!
Addy we miss you!
Addy, remember us?!

"So guys are y'all reaady for Adelaide to come out? I see she has some friends here in the arena" Niall pointed out some of the signs, the girls screamed even louder. Not knowing if it was for Adelaide, or the fact that it was NIALL who pointed them out. I chuckled at their reaction.

 "Well, here you go guys... Let me introduce you to ADELAIDE THOMSON!!" Liam announced. He probably knew she was going to give an answer as well... he had been smiling all day. Poor guy, if only he knew it was ME she was going to choose.
