Liz watched as the curtain rose on the stage, revealing Harry, Liam, and Louis. To the side was a grand piano and string quartet. The beginning chords of "If I Could Fly" filled the room, and Niall took the roses from her arms. Placing them on the piano, he placed his arms around Liz and slowly began to dance. As each band member finished their part of the vocals, they came to replace the other and dance with Liz.
Liz felt like she was in a fairy tale. When the song finished each member came over and gave Liz a lingering hug. They escorted her from the stage together, but they walked backstage and onto another stage. Sitting on this stage was James Corden, and a blue sofa.
"Come on over" he said, waving. Louis took Liz's hand and walked her over and introduced her to James.James hugged her quickly and said into her ear "They mean well". As the others shook hands, Harry clipped a microphone on the neckline of her dress and handed her the battery pack. Harry sat next to her on the sofa, followed by Louis, Nial and Liam.
"Thank you for having us" Liam said.
"Absolutely " James replied. "Now if I am not mistaken you gentlemen are supposed to be on a break"
"That's right James" said Niall "but something important has been brought to our attention, and we would feel remiss if we didn't address it officially."
James looked at Liz in mock shock and concern "What could that be?" he asked.
"Well James, it turns out I am an ignorant man" said Louis.
Harry raised his hand. " I am an unfeeling jerk". James looked expectantly at Niall.
"We're a couple of unobservant knuckleheads"Niall explained, pointing to Liam and himself. At the last gesture, Liz lost the battle to keep a serious face.
"Well, no offence,but we knew that guys. Didn't we?" he said, looking to Liz for confirmation. All she could do was nod. "Is that it?" he asked them completely seriously.
The four guys nodded. "Basically, yeah."
"Do we have you to thank for your recent enlightenment?" James asked Liz.
"Someone had to break it to them" she said, shrugging her shoulders.
"Okay, well thanks so much." James said, standing up. Shaking hands with everyone again, James pointed to the side of the stage. Liam led Liz to the wings as she heard James introduce his next guest.
Everyone dissolved into giggles as the show went to commercial break. James hopped up from his desk and walked over to the group.
"That was so excellent!" he giggled. He took Liz's hands in his. "And you!"he said earnestly " you were so funny!"
"Whatever they did, please call me if they do again!" he said as he returned to the stage.
Liz allowed herself to be led to a black SUV and they all piled in.
