Chapter Four: Dinner?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Harry, are you going to be speaking first?" i have to speak up and ask harry, i need to know what level his mic needs to be at compared to the other lads.
"yeah, i think so, but Niall will also speak inbetween two of my sentences."
"alrighty! thanks!" i smile at him then hurry up back to what im doing.
"say cheese!!" i look up and see rachel with her camera pointing in my direction... i barely have time to smile but i do.
"haha how bad is it? i joke around for a minute then out of no where i hear a crash. my head shoots up and i look to the stage. Harry is standing alone with his lips pressed together looking at me out of the corner of his eyes... where did everyone else go?
"uuuh Harry...?" i start to walk out from behind the sound booth and next to the stage on the floor are four guys on their bottoms glaring at harry, except for niall hes down there rolling around with laughter.
"eeek" harry squeals and lets out a burst of laughter buckling over.
"you hit us with your mic stand...and managed to sweep us off our feet..." Liam looks at Harry with a smirk.
"he really is a flirt" Louis winks at Harry and everyone stands up. I look to Hannah who is quietly laughing at the entire ordeal, just next to her is Rachel smiling and gazing at Niall while he laughs at probably himself for falling down.
I roll my eyes at the two of them as they enjoy this little trance of a term we all know so well as 'fangirl' I chuckle and go set the mic stand and speaker back up. On my way I pass by Harry who is looking at me like he's still holding in a fit of laughter. With one quick motion I lightly bop him upside the back of the head. And shake my head smiling.
Holy shit I just touched Harry Styles. I play it cool and continue to fix the stage back to where it was. I hear Harry protest that he did nothing wrong but I turn to look at him and he's still smiling, dimples explode on his face. I hand him his micstand and raise my eyebrows intimidatingly at him he makes a pfunny face and takes it noding. The other guys get up.
I walk over and jump off the edge of the stage. I reach down to grab the speaker that Zayn tropes over as Harry knocked them down, I feel something graze my hand and directly In front of me is Liam, grabbing hold of the other end. I look up to confront him, when I lift my head up, our faces are literally an inch apart. I feel the blod rush to my face and I see it on his. He nervously smirks.
"I thought you could use a little help love..." he nervously chuckles then we both lift it up and onto the stage. I turn it a little and position it perfectly.
"uh.. Thanks..." I look him as I stand up straight. I can feel my face getting hotter and hotter. He chuckles and crosses his arms so one hand is on his elbow and the other is around his lower chest under the opposite elbow. He looks so cute just standing there in his green hoodie and leather jacket over the top... He's wearing really dark blue jeans and a pair of green converse... He has a little stubble on his jaw and chin, even his upper lip. I can tell he hasn't shaved for about two days. It's really attrractive... His hair is still pretty short on the sides and in the back, but in the front it swoops up it looks so soft... And boy does he smell good... He's just...perfect.
"anytime...." he smiles a little then suddenly I feel an impact at my knees and I'm going down.
I hit the ground and just as I realise what happened Liam falls down next to Nevis hand lands right on top of my and subconsciously I pull away. I sit up and directly in front of me is Harry with his micstand pointing straight at me.
"HARRY!" I shout at him but I can't help but laugh. I sit there and take in the embarrassment for a second. I chuckle to myself then I'm startled by a hand held out towards me. I look up and Liam is smiling down towards me. I take his hand and he helps me up.
"thanks" I smile at him and he smiles back.
"uhhh guys... People are starting to come in here..." I turn around to Hannah who is looking at me kind of nervously.
"oh crap!" I rush over to the sound booth and turn the mica on. "guys the assembly is about to start! Get on the other side of the wall into the small gym quick! People can't know you're here yet. " I wave the guys in the direction of the door.
"hannah, Rachel go with them! Make sure they don't get lost! And that Harry doesn't get in anymore trouble!" I chuckle and they slowly lead the boys out.
I watch as the auditorium fills up and for once I have a chance to think about all that has happened in the past hour...there's been so much...
Eventually the Boys come out and do they're thing and our principle talks to them and they hand him the check for the donation. There's about twenty minutes after the singing and assembly where people who want pictures and autographs with the boys can get them. I have to stay back and clean up and I asked Rachel and Hannah's sixth period teachers if they could stay back and help me. I'm still overwhelmed by the fact that One Direction has come to me...I didn't have to go to them... They... Came to me.
Once everyone but a few teachers and ASB have left I begin clean up. My heart drops as I see the boys all start to file out of the gym door... They're leaving... Without even a word.
I look at Hannah and Rachel and they're both making the same disappointed expression as I am. We all watch as the guys disappear out of the door. We stare at the door for a second, but see nothing..
"come on guys, we gotta clean up." I turn away from them and begin unplugging microphones. I get to the one Liam used and I don't touch it. Instead I stare at it. I'm not going to lie...I thought something more was going to happen.. But.. That was it. They came with an awkward hello and left without a goodbye. Oh well.
"come on guys.... Let's go..." once we're finished cleaning up I grab all the equipment and follow Hannah and Rachel out of the gym. I stop at the door and turn around one more time..I look at where the stage was and I smile. I flip the switch of the lights and leave. All three of us walk back to Quintanas class with her equipment. Every step feels like a mile and I really didn't want today to end. On the brightside it's a friday.
"here.." I hand ms. Q the last camera and then something catches my eye.
Directly through the window into the studio green room on the table is a leather jacket... I slowly walk over to the door not taking my eyes off the price of clothing.. I open the door and standing on the other side of the room is all five one direction boys and I can't help but smile... I feel Hannah and Rachel stand on either side of me.
"uuh hi... We wanted to ask you guys something... Would you like to go to dinner with us tonight?" louis asks all of us. And all the guys smile at us. I bite my lip and I feel the butterflies burst.
"yes...we would..." all three of us say in unison.
