It's the kiss of life - Nathan Sykes

Chapter I

Chapter 1

A shiver ran through my body as the icy wind struck me again. How long had I been enduring these conditions? I checked my watch. 5 hours.

My friend Lucy wasn’t coping well; she was one step away from catching pneumonia.

We were perched on the wall of a tall house. Snow covered the pavement and ice hugged the road. What else do you expect in mid December?

“Do you want my coat, Luce?” I asked my brunette friend.

“No, you’ll freeze to death!” She exclaimed, her green eyes wide. “Plus, Jay can always give me a hug when he comes out!”

“Fair enough...” I said chuckling. “But seriously, one of them better come out soon.” Lucy nodded, shivering. I threw my arm round her and pulled her close, feeling her snuggling into my body heat.

“You’re boiling.” She mumured.

“No, you’refreezing.” I laughed. I checked my phone to see if any of the boys had tweeted. We were here for one purpose and one alone; to meet the Wanted, a boyband who we’d obsessed over for ages. We’d met them before, of course, many times. But this was special. You see, they’d recently bought a temporary house in our town. Better yet; it was only a 10 minute walk from my house and a 30 minute walk from Lucy’s. I considered it fate’s 18th birthday present to me.

Yeah, my birthday was last week. It wasn’t special. I just had a few members of family and my friends round for a movie night.

Point is, since nothing major happened last week, I feel that fate had stepped in and forced the Wanted to choose this house. Now I just had to meet them. I wouldn’t call it stalking; more like waiting. Curiousity, you see. I’m curious to know if they’ll come out. Well, the blinds are shut and they probably can’t see us.

So I’ve been tweeting them. Every member. I pressed “new tweet” and typed in@NathanTheWanted @SivaTheWanted I can hear your Niva fun from out here, look out the window?

And pressed ‘tweet’.

Lucy’s body was warming me up, so that was an up side. We’d considered knocking on the door a few times, but that would be a deliberate invasion of privacy, and I don’t like doing that kind of thing.

There was a crash from inside, followed by a few cheers of sarcasm. Excitement built up; that was them! I could hear them! Now, if only they came out...

                                    -----------------------------

Half an hour later, and I was sure that I was at death’s door. My toes and my fingers were achingly numb and I could see that they lacked colour. They were literally white as a sheet.

Lucy had sat back up, and so I was cold again. I looked at my watch. 4:33pm. I had to be back for 6. I'd really like to be back for 5; that was just after half time. Yep, die hard United fan right here. The match had begun at 4ish and it was the first match of the season. They were playing West Ham. It'd be an easy win.

My phone buzzed, meaning one of the lads had tweeted. I checked it and saw that it was Jay ‘@NathanTheWanted just broke my skittle drawer. Thanks mate.’ A picture was tagged, and I looked at it. It was Nathan, looking guilty next to a collapsed drawer. A few skittles were scattered across the floor.

“Lucy, that bang we heard...” I said, showing her the photo. She laughed.

Suddenly, some movement caught my eye. I looked up to see the wooden blinds being drawn back, then the window opened. Lucy grasped my hand and squeezed it tight.

“What are you two doing down there, eh?” It was Siva. . I leant back, smiling up to him.

“Waiting for you, silly!” I shouted. Lucy was frozen beside me. She always got starstruck by the boys, no matter what. I did too, secretly, but I could disguise it.

“Are you...” He glanced down at something in his hand. His phone. “Gemma_TW?” I beamed. My tweets had been noticed!

“Yeah! Are you...” I pretended to look at my phone. “SivaTheWanted?” He laughed.

“Yehhhp!” He beamed down at us. “Stay there...” He leaned back into the house, shutting the window but not the blinds. I could see a few shadows in the background, then suddenly, Max was at the window, making funny faces. I smiled, then stuck my tongue out. Lucy unfroze and puffed her cheeks out whilst widening her eyes. Max smiled and pulled back from the window.

The door opened and I stood up abruptly.

"Hey!" Siva and Jay stepped out. I pulled Lucy up and dragged her to ther door, where Jay beamed at us.

"Bloody hell, aren't you cold?" He asked, shivering.

"Freezing." Lucy managed to say, her teeth chattering.

Siva and Jay exchanged a look.

"Jayne's not coming back 'til tomorrow, right?" Jay asked.

"Nope!" Siva beamed knowingly.

"Come in, warm yourselves up!" Jay said, ushering us in. Lucy stepped right in, attracted to the warmth, but I lingered behind, hesitant. They may be my favourite boyband and yeah, my heart was about to explode, but they were strangers and I kinda felt cheeky just invading their privacy like that.

"We're inviting you in." Jay said, practically pulling me through the door into the warm living room. Siva shut the door behind us, shivering. He did only have a tank top on.

The living room wasn't anything special; they had just moved in after all. A fireplace was alight, a rug lying in front of it. A table at the side had an envelope and two sets of keys on it, and a line of coat pegs hung on the wall. A few coats were strewn on it and one lay on the floor, crumpled up.

But I was here. I was actually in The Wanted's (temporary) house!
