Song for this chapter : I really really like you - Carly Rae Jepsen.

Sydney , Adelaide, Canberra, Brisbane four cities and eight fanatical shows. The rush of adrenaline in my veins every time I proceeded on stage to the ear deafening screams of thousands of fans was enthralling. Over the past five years the lads and I have done numerous shows worldwide, it is obvious for others to think that it is just another part of our job. In all honesty , this is what we live for , yearning to sing and perform for the people who helped us live our dreams. Every concert is beyond the fireworks, the humungous stage set up. I like to think of it more as a celebration of happiness , emotions and the bond we share with our fans.

The past few days had been extremely hectic. Work was in abundance for the crew and a lot of people were at the end of their tether due to sleep deprivation. Life on the road was enticing but it did have a few downsides as well. Liam and Niall were also facing difficulty due to changes in their sleeping pattern. Both of them had transformed into night owls prowling in the hotel late nights and dozing during rehearsals. Paul had asked them to get their act together and everyday a team assistant was assigned for waking them up. On day 3 the task was allotted to Allana who dumped a bucket of cold water on Niall when he told her to mind her own bloody business. She sassed him saying she was doing exactly that by waking him up. Niall told her , that her actions were childish to which she reverted saying she was merely being creative in her approach to waking him up. Things blew out of control resulting in a shouting match between them. The outcome was a grumpy Niall and a cheerful Allana who has congratulated by Paul. Apparently Niall promised to wake up on time as long as Allana was nowhere in his sight early morning. It was quite comical to see the brother-sister duo glaring and making faces at each other.

Allana was a workaholic based on my observations in the past few days. It could be fair to say that she had a particular OCD in performing each task in an impeccable manner. I agree it was a commendable attribute but that only lead her from being distant from me. Also it wasn't very comforting to know that our musical band's member Josh was crushing on her. He seem to follow her around like a lost puppy. Allana was oblivious to his feelings but I wasn't and maybe just maybe a few times I did feel like strangling Josh when he put his arm around her shoulders or pinched her cheeks addressing her as adorable. I was definitely not jealous at all. Okay a bit , a teeny weeny bit.

Currently we had wrapped up our last show in Brisbane Australia and were getting ready for a meet and greet with the fans. I saw Allana standing in a corner talking to Megan from the security team. Eyebrows furrowed in concentration she was scribbling on her notepad. She looked beautiful in her plain black t-shirt denim shorts and black sneakers.That booty should be declared illegal I thought. Pervert much ? .Well yeah ! Don't blame me but her and those damn short shorts.

Megan patted her back and left. I took it as a cue and quickly pulled her arm sneaking in a corner.

"Zayn ! What is wrong with you ?" , she shrieked with her eyes wide.

" I miss you." , I replied back softly.

A warm smile broke on her lips and she blushed. " I am right here . We are in the same venue all the time. Visible to each others eyes. How can you miss me then ?" , she questioned me.

I wrapped both my arms around her waist pulling her closer to my chest. " Yes we are in the same venue most of the time.Yes we do see each other from time to time. But the maximum interaction we have is when you have to give me information about my schedule or if I am lucky you flash me your heart warming smile. I am busy stealing glances from you. You are so close to me yet so far. It's an unjustified punishment I am enduring."

" You are so cute." , she said in a baby voice pulling my cheeks.

" Adjectives to describe me are hot and sexy babe and you chose cute. I am offended." I said rolling my eyes dramatically.

"Zayn your meet and greet starts in two minutes. We both need to get back too work.", she said trying to pull away from me , only making me tighten my grip on her.

"No. I am not letting you go. Stay with me babe please." I whined.

"Let's make a deal. As per the schedule you have 3 days off before flying for Japan.Let us spend quality time together then. Does that sound good to you ? ", she said pouting her lips.

" If you say so love." I said grimacing.

"Aww babe." , she cooed kissing me on my cheek.

Grabbing the opportunity I placed a kiss on her right cheek and one on her left. She grinned at my gesture.

I placed another sloppy kiss on her cheek. "Zayn !! Enough." , she cried out swatting her arm on my chest.

"Don't blame me babe. You have very kissable cheeks." I smirked at her.

"And you BABE have very soft lips.", she said winking back at me.

We gazed at each other fervently before hearing Paul call my name out aloud. Allana wiggled out of my grip hurriedly to leave.

"Pretty boy I miss you too." , she said pecking my nose and jogged back to whatever she was doing.

I stood there grinning like an idiot before Paul's loud voice broke my trance and I rushed out for the meet and greet.
