Why was I nervous? My stomach felt like it was in knots. I hadn't felt like this in ages, but I liked it.

All of the girls looked beautiful. Emmie was wearing a floral dress and her hair was curled to perfection and her sister Joanne was dressed in jeans, heels and a top that enhanced her figure perfectly. Courtney was wearing disco pants and a bright pink top which she also looked radiant in. I was wearing a black peplum dress with a low back and red wedges with a clutch to match. I had curled my hair and my eyes were smokey with red lipstick on to match the shoes.

"Hey guys, come in quick, we're just doing a sound check" Connor said, whilst peering his head around the door. There was already so many fans there. I didn't know the band was this big, I didn't even know there was this many people in Malta.

We sat there and watched them rehearse singing songs such as Can we dance and Golden. My particular favourite was 'she was the one' because the lyrics were so relatable and they all really got into the song. They were all so talented. Brad has one of the best voices I have ever heard in my life and when James harmonises with him it sounds angelic. Tristan is so talented on the drums and Connor looks so hot when he is playing bass. He did this cute little 360 jump and he looked so hot.

"So guys, what did you think of the rehearsal?" asked Brad.

"You guys are so good. Different to any band that are out there now. It's nice to see a band that actually sings their own songs and plays their own music" said Emmie. I was impressed about how much she knew.

"Aw thank you. We are definitely not your average boyband" replied Brad. He was smiling whilst talking to Emmie, it was almost flirty.

 As the conversation began to flow a blonde girl walked into the room and all of the boys ran to greet her. All of us girls wondered who she was.

"Hey I'm Harriet, I'm Brads..." Oh no, I forgot the girlfriend question. Were they all taken?

"Best friend" she finished. Phew. Maybe it was time to ask about girlfriends.

"Aw it's nice to meet you, is it always this crazy?" asked Courtney, directing it towards Harriet.

"Haha yes definitely. I have so many followers on twitter just because I'm best friends with Brad and get to hang out with the boys and go to all of these gigs all over the world with them" she replied enthusiastically.

"Aw that must be amazing though, having a best friend like Brad?" Emmie asked, almost with a hint of jealousy.

"Haha yeah, I guess" Harriet replied in a reserved way which made me think there was definitely more going on between those two.

From what I could see we were all going off into little pairs. I was with Connor, James was with Joanne, Courtney and Tristan had obvious chemistry and then there was just a big awkward situation between Emmie, Brad and Harriet.

"So are you enjoying the night so far babe?" Connor asked, blushing as he said it.

"Yes it's so amazing. You guys are so lucky to be in this situation. The crowd are going crazy for you guys and you haven't even been on stage" I replied, looking into his beautiful blue eyes.

"Haha I know we are. Sometimes I wish I had a private life though, not many things stay secret. For instance, if I get pictured with you then the press will automatically think we're dating and it will be front page of OK magazine and a trending topic on twitter, not meaning to scare you off" he instantly regretted what he had said.

"Haha that doesn't scare me off, as long as the photo got my good side". You could tell he was shocked by my answer.

Connor's point of view

This girl is actually perfect. I don't even know much about her but she is amazing. Every response she gives gets better and better. I'm normally so shy around girls but she's different.

"Are you looking forward to the show then?" she asked. Her voice intrigued me.

"Yeah, I love playing to fans and meeting them all. After the show we will go out to the railings and meet some of them. You make sure you come straight back here after the show ok?" I wanted to spend so much time with her and get to know everything about her.

"Yes of course I will. I'm so excited to hear you guys".

"Con, you ready to go?" interrupted James. I could tell by his face we had some serious boy talk ready to happen.

"Yeah I'm ready, can you tear yourself away from Joanne?" I joked.

"I think you're all having trouble doing that aren't you Con?" Joe replied, he was the best manager ever.

"Have a good show boys" Courtney said. She was so pretty as well, Tris was obviously attracted to her.

"Yeah good luck" Abbie said. She directed this at me and then leaned in and kissed me on the cheek. I could feel my face heating up and just ran away to give the best performance I could possibly give.
