I sang the final note for my solo and the singers behind me faded out quietly. Ms. Hof made a 'wow' expression and I blushed lightly.

"That was perfect. Sing it like that at the concert?" She made a perfect motion with her fingers. I smiled. Our last concert of the year was that night.

"Okay," I agreed. We were about to run through it again when the door creaked open. I turned to look. My smile reappeared, wider than before, and I felt my heart pounding.

Liam Payne and Niall Horan walked in, cameras in their hands.

"Hi," Liam smiled to Ms. Hof. She smiled.

"Hello!" she said excitedly. "What can I do for you?" Liam looked down at the camera in his hands.

"Yearbook," Niall explained.

"Perfect," Ms. Hof smiled, returning to her previous position. I felt like she had said perfect too many times. She looked at me as my stomach turned sour. I hated pictures, and my crush on Niall wasn't helping anything. "Again," she told me. I nodded and Mr. Reins started playing and the boys raised their cameras.

I began singing. "It's amazing, so amazing how I've survived this road," I sang. "Feel the fever. I can feel it down inside my soul and I will be the one to build you up, I'll build you up." I started to lose myself in the music. The choir behind me joined in at 'build you up'. "And be the one to never doubt, I'll never doubt."

Niall pointed his camera at me. I blushed but kept singing. The camera flashed and I watched Niall smile. I finally finished the song, and Liam and Niall had stopped to listen. They started clapping as the piano faded. I smiled shyly. Was I actually good?

"That was amazing," they said in unison. I shrugged.

"Thanks." Niall smiled at me widely and I smiled back. The bell rang and we picked up our things. As I held the door open for the girl on crutches behind me, Niall came to my side. I smiled lightly and he gestured for me to go first. As he went to catch the door, his hand brushed my shoulder. I felt a shiver run down my spine. The door shut loudly as I walked back to class.

"So," he said. "You were amazing." I looked at him. He smiled genuinely. He didn't like me. He couldn't. I sighed quietly to myself, but obviously it wasn't quiet enough.

"Thanks," I said, suddenly glum.

"What's wrong?" he asked. I arrived at my locker, and he leaned against the wall, arms crossed over his chest.

"Nothing," I said quietly. "Just tired." He gave me a small smile and sighed, too.

"Okay." I shut my locker and turned towards him. Suddenly lips pressed to mine and hands slipped around my waist. I was surprised, but kissed back briefly. He let go and sighed happily.

"I hope you feel better," he whispered and was gone.
