[Sorry been pretty busy with school and reading fanfic a I almost forgot my own Thanks for reading!]

I say at the lunch table alone as predicted overlooking the crowd. I watch everyone's conversations of laughs and gasps and smilies. But Up All Night by One Direction is drowning out the words. I wonder what they are saying.

I later finish the not-so-delicious sandwich I made this morning in a hurry. Then I decide to start walking to my next class

Science is pretty boring as always. I just zone out and think of my 5 favourite boys ever. Just their faces give me 'the feels' as people define it. I get a notification on my phone and sneak a peak at it. It's just a message from Marcy. She has a duck face and says "Lookin' Swag" . I send her back one of the class room and say "So fun. Not."

Schools over now as I exit the doors to walk home. I look up cautiously from my phone at every car that passes slowly, thinking that someone in it's gonna pick me up and stuff me in the trunk. I may be tall but I'm not that heavy. Twitter is blown up of pictures of last nights One Direction concert. not that I'm complaining or anything. I check Instagram and the same concert pictures load up. I post a couple of them with some captions like "Can you just not" and "Why can't I just marry you?!?!".

I unlock the door without even looking and clap for myself because I'm impressed with my skills. I text Marcy (even though I know she's infamous to take forever to respond) an ask her how far she is on the Niam fanfic. Marcy is one of my best friends but we don't text as much as I think we should. She actually texts back between 4 minutes. She says she's on like the tenth chapter. "Out of like ninety" I respond back.

I decide to actually do homework today so I don't have to rush to do it in the first five minutes of each class. Instagram is calling out to me with all the notifications of people who liked my picture. No wonder I never do the homework.

I hear the door shut from the back of the house. It's probably my mum. I was right. I watch her drop all her bags of work in the kitchen as she breathes in heavenly from the tons of work. "Hay, Jake!" she says happily to me as she hugs me still out of breath.

"I got a surprise for you" "Is it another puzzle because I think out of room for them in my closet" I say as I think of all the boxes of pieces that will never be solved. "No it's this!" She says all smiley and hands me an envelope. I open it cautiously in case it's a bomb or something. I scream so loud I can hear an echo from out side. The scream is kind of girly too but I don't give a crap. The oh so sweet words of One Direction are printed on the two paper tickets. I tackle my her with a giant hug that almost knocks her to the floor

"How? What? When?!" "Well my boss got them for her daughter but she had a mandatory choir concert that night and she knew you liked them and didn't want them to go to waste." she interrupts with a half smile. "I thought since your birthday is next week and your going to be seventeen that you could go with one of your friends" she grins at the end but I think my smile is much bigger then hers.

"Thank you Thank you Thank you!!!"

The concert is next week on Friday. The Friday we get out for Winter Break. So it being Thursday I have one week to plan everything out. Awesome.
