Chapter 29

CHARLOTTE POV.

"Wake up! It's time to get up!" I heard Shawn yell as I was still asleep. I rolled over to see my curtain open. "What time is it?" I mumbled half asleep as I put my pillow over my face. "6, the concert starts at 5 and we have so much to do! So get up missy," Shawn said as he took the pillow out of my face and practically pulled me out of bed.

After laying on the ground for around 10 minutes I finally decided to get up and get ready. "You're up!" Hayes said as he came up behind me hugging me tight. "Yep! Super early I know!" I said as I turned around to give him a proper hug. "I need to get ready," I said before I kissed his nose and ran into the bathroom. The bus was pretty cramped to say the least, so I decided to have a quick shower and get changed.

 After my shower I got changed into my purple sundress that had thin straps and ended above my knees and did my usual makeup. I put my hair in a high pony tail and I was ready."Are we here?" I asked as I attempted to make my bed but didn't end up successful. "Yep, we will do the sound check once we are all ready," Shawn said as he was putting his black vans on. Once we were all ready we got off the bus and went into the entertainment centre where Shawn was going to do his concert.

It was so big! "Okay, so I will go through all my songs, then you go Char then Hayes, then I will go through it again until we have to get ready, okay?" Shawn asked as he looked at both Hayes and me. "Yep," We both replied in unison. We went backstage while Shawn was practicing. He sounded so amazing! We were around 3 hours into the 'rehearsal' when Shawn came backstage to tell me it was my turn. "Break a leg," Hayes said as I got up out of my seat. "Thanks," I said with a smile.

 I was super nervous even though it was just rehearsal. "Just be yourself and you will be great," Shawn said as he handed me the microphone. "Thanks," I said as I took the microphone out of his hands. "Do you want to do Royals and then Titanium?" He asked as he stood in front of me. "Sure," I replied with a straight face. "Okay," He said before the music started to play.

I started to sing and it was so weird to hear myself so loud. I sung for around an hour and a half just getting use to the whole 'stage' thing and Shawn gave me great tips. "You are good to go," Shawn said with a smile as he put his hand on my shoulder. I went backstage when Hayes went onstage. "So my name is Brianna but you can call me Bri," A lady said as I walked into Shawn's dressing room. "Hi, I'm Charlotte," I said with a smile.

"Oh right, you probably have no idea on who I am. I'm Shawn's stylist and your makeup artist," She said as she winked at me. "Really?" I asked as I started to smile. "Yep, let me try something out on you," She said as she guided me to a chair in front of a massive mirror. "What are you doing?" I asked as I looked at her through the mirror. "Your makeup and hair for tonight," She said with a smile.

"Isn't it like 12:30?" I asked. "Yeah, but the time I'm done it will be later and we have to pick an outfit and everything, don't worry sweety, I will take care of you," She said as she ran her hands through my hair thinking about what she would do. "Got it!" She said as started to brush my hair."I have food," Shawn said as he opened the door with burgers and fries in his hands. "Yay!" Bri said as she ran over and grabbed the food out of his hands. "Thank you," She said as she put a fry in her mouth and came back towards me dancing around to the One Direction song that was playing.

 She was so beautiful, she had long black hair and hazel eyes. I could tell that Shawn was looking at her through the mirror as she walked away. "Oh, here's your food Char," Shawn said as he placed the food in front of me. "Thank you," I said with a smile on my face. "I betta get back to Hayes," Shawn said as he walked out the door. I looked at Bri through the mirror and started to smile. "So?" I said as I took a bite out of my burger.
