The roar of the crowd was still lingering in the air as Y/N and Mia shuffled through the throng of fans slowly spilling out of the stadium. The electric energy of the night seemed to settle over them like a haze, everyone's faces lit up with excitement.
Mia was still buzzing, a smile wide on her face, but Y/N was barely listening. Her thoughts kept drifting back to that insane moment, the one that still didn't feel real: Louis Tomlinson, standing inches away from her, slipping his number into her phone with that irresistible grin.
As they reached the edge of the parking lot, Y/N felt her phone buzz in her hand. She froze, glancing down. Her heart skipped a beat.
Louis: Didn't expect me to actually text, did you? ;) Hope you're still riding the high of that show, love.
She almost stumbled, her mind racing. He had texted. Right here in her hand was proof that tonight had been even crazier than she could have imagined.
Mia was saying something about grabbing a drink, but Y/N just nodded along, already typing a response, her fingers shaky with excitement.
Y/N: You know how to put on a show. Thanks for an incredible night ;)
It only took a moment before her phone buzzed again.
Louis: And here I thought you'd forgotten me already. Still at the venue, are you? I might have one more encore for you if you're up for it.
Her pulse quickened. She bit her lip, glancing back toward the stadium as Mia rambled on about post-concert food.
Y/N: Are you suggesting an exclusive encore, Mr. Tomlinson? ;)
She held her breath as she hit send, a grin tugging at the corners of her mouth. She couldn't believe she was even typing these words, let alone that he was on the other end of the conversation. Within seconds, another reply came.
Louis: Oh, definitely exclusive. Why don't you and your friend come backstage for a bit? I promise we're all friendly back here.
Y/N's stomach flipped. She was barely breathing, her mind racing. She knew Mia would absolutely lose her mind if she knew they had an invite backstage. Trying to stay calm, she turned to her friend, who was still blissfully unaware of the once-in-a-lifetime invitation that had just landed in their laps.
"Uh, Mia?" she began, hoping to sound casual. "How would you feel about... going backstage? To meet the band?"
