Music Saves Lives

Chapter Forty-Eight

Just a heads up: Liam is single in this story. Also Zayn and Perrie are engage, because they really are, so… yeah.

The tour ended with a bang and I spent the past week with my family and friends. Going out to dinners and hanging out as much as possible. They were really not helping me when I was saying goodbye. Everyone went to the diner, including my parents and family, to have a small farewell party. They all were crying when I left and I was so mad at them for that, but I couldn’t blame them. I was doing the same.

I took a flight to New York to see One Direction’s final show of the US tour. I got off the plane and my security guard was there waiting. I greeted him and he took my bags and suitcases. I had more than usual, seeing as though I had everything I brought on tour and then some. It would all be left in the SUV anyway since Niall and I were leaving tonight to go to London anyway.

I was wearing my “I heart Niall” shirt and a pair of short royal blue shorts with my black converse. I was led into the venue and given a pass to go backstage. The boys were already on stage so I decided to just watch from the lounge. I didn’t want to go out into the crowd so late into the gig and I don’t think my ears could handle it. I sat on the couch and crossed my legs, watching the screen. I didn’t even notice three boys walk in to get waters until the room was filled with more people.

They came and sat at the couches near me and I swear I’ve seen them before but I don’t know where.

“I know you!” one of them said and I just continued to look confused. “You’re (y/n). Nice shirt.”

I awkwardly took his hand that he held out for me to shake. “Uhm yeah, I am. Sorry, I don’t know who you are and thanks my band bought it for me.”

“I’m Niall’s friend from Mullingar.” I nodded. “Sean.”

“Oh okay Niall talks about you! Nice to meet you.” I smiled and turned to the other two boys.

“Dylan.”

“Darragh.”

I shook their hands and smiled. “I wasn’t expecting to meet you guys yet. That saved me a whole lot of anxiety.” I chuckled.

“That’s why Niall didn’t tell you.” Sean informed me.

“Ah I see, that little ass.” I grimaced, crossing my arms.

“We’re gonna go watch the encore. You coming?” Darragh asked.

“Sure, why not.” I grinned following them to the side stage area.

We watched as the boys performed their last few songs, making the girls in the crowd go ballistic. I laughed when Harry nearly fell over Liam.

They all bowed and ran off stage. I was talking to Dylan as he was telling me stupid shit Niall used to do with all of them as we walked backstage.

“Oi Niall! We found something for you!” Sean yelled as we saw Niall’s sweaty blonde hair heading towards the dressing rooms.

He turned around looking toward the direction of us and when his eyes met mine he started grinning. I walked quickly towards him and gave him a strong kiss.

“I see you met my friends.” He laughed, watching them walk up behind me.

“Yes I did.” I nodded.

“We like her better than you.” Darragh said, causing Niall to punch his arm.

“I’m not surprised.” He chuckled. “I have to go change unless you want a smelly, sweaty Niall to sit next to on the plane.” He grabbed me and held me against him.
