Valerie’s POV:
 
The concert had just finished and the boys ran off the stage.
 
“It’s really not the same without Niall,” Louis said, panting. When the crowd had realized that Niall wasn’t going to be performing with the others tonight, some of the girls had started to get upset, so to cheer them up Liam kept trying to pants Harry. He failed the first few times, but he finally succeeded in the end. Holly, Danielle, and I had been in the front row and we saw everything… and I mean everything…
 
“Um, Liam,” Danielle spoke up, “Do you know what happened when you pantsed Harry?” Liam cocked his head to the side.
 
“What do you mean?” Holly and I exchanged glances. I had seen a little more of my brother than I ever wanted to see and I was honestly trying to forget that particular part of the concert. Danielle leaned forward and whispered in his ear. Liam’s eyes widened.
 
“Do you think anyone filmed it?” he asked. Danielle nodded.
 
“The crew for ‘This is Us’ was filming at that point,” she said, “And so were hundreds of the fans.” Harry just looked confused.
 
“What are you talking about?” he asked. Holly whispered and explanation and when she finished, Harry looked horrified.
 
“THEY SAW MY WHAT?” he exclaimed.
 
“Ugh, just… ugh,” I shuddered, “I did not need to see that.”
 
“Oh please,” Harry said, “You’ve seen me naked hundreds of times. The fans though…”
 
“Yeah, sure, I saw you naked… WHEN WE WERE LITTLE.”
 
“What do you mean by naked?” Louis asked, confused, “What happened when Liam pulled Harry’s trousers down?”
 
“One of his balls may have slipped out,” Holly giggled. Harry stormed off to the dressing room, not wanting to take any part in the conversation any more. Holly, Liam, and Danielle soon followed.
 
“Val,” Louis said putting his arm around my waist and pulling me into his side, “Would you like to explain why these-” he held up a pair of fluffy black handcuffs, “Slid across the stage towards me?” I shrugged, smiling.
 
“Maybe one of the fans wanted you to have them,” I said. He rolled his eyes.
 
“Mhmm,” he hummed, “The fan that was sitting in your exact spot in the front row?” I didn’t answer, I just continued to smile. Zayn, who was looking back and forth between the two of us sniffled.
 
“Horndogs,” he coughed, walking away and leaving Louis and I behind.
 
“So did Harry’s ball really…?” Louis trailed off. I nodded. Out of the corner of my eye I saw movement and I turned my head to see what it was.
 
“Did you see that?” I asked. Louis raised an eyebrow.
 
“See what?” That’s when she revealed herself. A familiar girl with blond hair tied back in a ponytail. She wore black clothes that blended in with the backstage area. Louis turned his head and his eyes widened when he saw her. I grabbed his arm and we both backed away before turning and running away from her. We heard her running behind us. We ran through the hallways and gained some distance. Eventually we got to a hallway that split off into two. We paused.
 
“Which way?” Louis asked, breathing heavily. I pulled him to the right and he followed me. She was getting closer.
 
We were running at full speed when I crashed into something, or someone.
 
“Whoa,” Paul chuckled, “What are you two doing?” That’s when she turned the corner and Paul saw her. He took out his walkie talkie and spoke into it.
 
“I need back up,” he said as he took off after her, “Get into the dressing room and don’t let anyone leave until I come to get you!” he called to us. We didn’t hesitate in sprinting to the room.
 
We burst through the door, out of breath, and Louis slammed the door shut. We leaned against the door, trying to catch our breath.
 
“Where were you two?” Holly giggled.
 
“Probably off somewhere,” Zayn said, “Alone. Just the two of them. Maybe in a closet somewhere.” The others laughed and it was a little before anyone noticed that something was off.
 
“Guys?” Liam stopped laughing when he saw the state we were in, “What happened?” The others stopped laughing, noticing as well.
 
“We-” Louis tried to speak up, but we were both still trying to catch our breath.
 
“I’ll go get you some water,” Zayn said, getting up and heading for the door.
 
“NO!” Louis and I exclaimed. Zayn looked taken aback.
 
“Why not?” he asked.
 
“We- we saw and... were ch-chased by E-Eleanor.”
