Midnight Memories

Story of My Life

*AMBER'S POV*

'Dad are you ready? I told Gwen you would pick her up at 6:00,' I yelled out to him downstairs.

'Yea, I'll be out in the car soon, you get your stuff and go out there,' he replied.

As I was leaving I thought about how it was Gwen's birthday, so I ran back inside and got an extra $50 so I could buy her a present.

Gwen and I hopped out of the car and started walking up to the main entrance of the stadium.

'Thanks for the ride Jo,' Gwen said.

'Have fun girls!' Jo said as he drove off in his black Holden Ute.

It was an amazing experience to walk up the steps watching all the girls dressed in One Direction clothes. Some were singing, dancing even just jumping up and down with joy as they waited for the gates to open. We didn't need to wait long though because 5 Seconds of Summer were coming on at 6:30. 

*GWEN'S POV*

As we sat down we saw a little girl crying into her mother's arm. Amber asked over the top of all the noise, 'What's wrong?'

'My daughter loves One Direction but she's scared of all the older girls screaming, she doesn't like the noise,' the lady replied.

I went over and rubbed the little girls back, 'There's nothing to be scared of,' I said softly to her, then I turned to the lady again and asked, 'What's her name?'

'Lucy,' she said.

'Well Lucy why don't we sit down in our seats and we can watch the concert together?' I said to her.

Lucy smiled and bounced off her mother's lap and into her own seat. She started dangling her feet off the edge of the seat because she couldn't reach the floor, and Amber and I started laughing and playing around with her.

The night went on and I was sitting next to Lucy and her parents, so when the members of One Direction started to speak to use I lifted Lucy up on my shoulders so she could see them.

After the concert Amber and I said goodnight to Lucy and her parents David and Sarah. We got and started to walk around to the memorabilia stores. What we didn't realise was that Lucy wanted to come with us. David said, 'Why don't you girls take Lucy around for a while and we will give you a ride home for looking after her.'

 'Thankyou so much, that sounds great,' Amber said.

'No, thankyou for taking care of her, she was so scared,' Sarah said, 'Here, take $40 so you can buy Lucy a T-Shirt or something.'

'It's ok, we've got heaps of money, but thanks anyway,' Amber said.

'Are you sure?' David said.

'Positive,' Amber replied, smiling.

*AMBER'S POV*

We ended up buying Lucy a Mug, a T-Shirt, and a big poster with her favourite member of One Direction, Harry, on it. We were on our way out of the stadium when we noticed a security guard standing in front of the gate that we were going to go through.

'Sorry Sir, but we have to go through that gate to get to the car,' Gwen explained.

'I'm sorry but One Direction are currently making their way to the autograph signings and no one is allowed out of this gate here until I get word that they are at their destination.' The security guy said.

'Could we please just get through, we just need to make our way to the car,' I said, pleading.

'No, I'm sorry but they are the orders I got,' He replied.

Lucy held onto my hand and started crying softly and as she did this I worked out a plan.

'Look I'll let you out but if I hear anything about you girls causing trouble I'll have you taken out of this stadium for good.'

'Thankyou so much,' I said picking Lucy up and walking through the gate.
