Diner Girl *Harry Styles Love Story*

Chapter 51

"Okay, we're going to have to walk the carpet separately." Harry tells me as we pull up in front of the venue the awards will be taking place in. My eyes go wide and my nerves make their way to the surface of my stomach.

"What do you mean 'we're going to have to walk the carpet separately'?" I ask, mocking his british accent. His eyes lower and he frowns at my effort to make fun of him.

"Okay, first of all, I don't sound like that," He holds up one finger then puts up another before speaking again. "Secondly, you really need to stop making fun of me tonight," He pauses and puts up one more finger. "And third, since the boys and I are opening up the show, we need to get inside before anybody else, which means we need to be one of the first people on the carpet."

"And what does that have to do with us separating?" I ask, not getting the picture.

"We have to take pictures as a band then rush backstage. You are going to take pictures by yourself or with Crystal, Eleanor, or Payton since they will be alone too."

"What about Perrie?" Crystal asks, gesturing to the blonde next to Zayn.

"I will be taking pictures with my band." She explains then motions to the three other girls sitting by her side.

"Oh," Crystal drags the word on as realization hits her. "I see."

"So are you going to be okay on your own?" Harry asks me and I nod my head yes. "Good," He pauses to kiss my cheek. "When you get inside there will be seats reserved for us. You and I are sitting next to Ed." I raise my eyebrow into the air.

"Where is everybody else sitting?"

"We will be a row behind you." Zayn tells me, pointing to the girls of Little Mix and himself.

"And what about you guys?" I look at the other six people.

"We will be in the row behind them." They tell me and I am completely confused.

"Why? Its kin-" I am cut off by the door of the limo opening up. Screams and squeals burst into my ears and I flinch at the sudden change of sound.

"You'll do fine." Harry whispers a few more encouraging words into my ear before kissing my cheek and walking on to the carpet with the rest of the boys. I watch them get interviewed then take a few pictures before suddenly feeling even more nervous than before.

"You can do this girls." Perrie gives Payton, Crystal, Eleanor, and I winks before following the boys movements on the carpet.

"I have done it before," Eleanor grabs my attention. "It really isn't bad." She assures Payton, Crystal, and I. We all nod, but you can tell we are nervous wrecks just by the expressions on our faces. "Come on, lets get this over with." Eleanor says as more limos pull up. I gulp and make my way towards the long carpet before being stopped and pulled to the side by a woman and a man.

"Hello, Faith Winter, right?" The woman points to me. I smile and nod my head while trying to act calm as she puts her microphone up to my mouth.

"Yes." She takes her microphone back to speak into it.

"And you must be her friends." She looks at Payton and Crystal.

"I'm her friend, but she is her cousin." Crystal explains into the long mic before the girl nods her head up and down.

"And I know you," She points to Eleanor. "You're Louis Tomlinson's girlfriend, right?" Eleanor gives her a bright smile and nods her head up and down.

"That's right."

"And how are you girls?" The man finally speaks up. He moves his microphone in front of Payton's face.

"We're great! How are you two?" She asks and gives him her best, forced smile.
