Six Girls, Five Guys, One Summer (One Direction)

Chapter 32: Kelly Gets Her Apology

A/N Before this chapter starts, I want to say that this story was written to be summertime of 2013. So, the Midnight Memories album has not been released yet, so no song featured in this chapter will be from Midnight Memories, only Up All Night and Take Me Home. Just thought I should clear that up. Enjoy!

Kelly's POV

“How’s everyone doing tonight?” asked Niall, smiling out at the crowd of thousands of screaming girls. My best friends and I were six of them, at the concert they were doing in L.A. We joined in on screaming back with every other girl in the arena.

The boys had told us about the L.A. concert the day after Lizzie and Louis’s Valleyfair date, and Lizzie had proudly announced that she knew about it first. But this was still pretty cool. We had seen their concert on Good Morning America, but that was really a mini concert. This was a full blown concert, with costume changes and video screens and Twitter questions.

“Well, tonight we thought we’d shake it up a bit,” Louis said. “We’re going to do some songs we weren’t planning on singing before. Is that okay with you?” he asked the crowd, who again screamed their approval.

The boys smiled, and then Liam spoke up. “Well, we’re going to start off with a song from our second album. I think you all know it. So, here’s Kiss You!” The crowd screamed as Liam announced their next song, and so did the girls and I. I saw Liam look over at Courtney. He winked in her direction, and again the crowd went wild, thinking the wink was directed to them.

Now it made sense. Liam was dedicating this song to Courtney, but wasn’t saying it out loud so the girls wouldn’t go crazy. Smart.

The music began, and Zayn started singing his solo. I tried to make eye contact with him as he sang, but he was walking around the whole stage, singing and looking everywhere but me. I kind of understood. After all, this wasn’t my song. But I still wanted to talk with him. The girls had told me that it was probably a misunderstanding, and that if we talked it out everything would work out. But, I hadn’t gotten the opportunity when the boys told us about the L.A. trip, and hadn’t gotten much opportunity since. I gave up on trying by the time Harry finished his solo, and just enjoyed listening to the music, screaming a bit like every other fan that was in the arena.

Then, Liam was singing his solo. He often had his eyes locked on Courtney, but he made it look not so conspicuous by roaming the stage and seeming to sing to the crowd. Then, the chorus began, and all the boys sang.

Throughout the entire song, I observed the same behaviors. Zayn still didn’t really look at me, and Liam always was singing to Courtney, even though it was often hidden too. I actually thought it was kind of sweet to see Liam like that. I was happy for Courtney and Liam. I really was. They deserved the happiness they were having.

Then, the song ended, and the crowd cheered, especially Courtney.

“Thank you,” Niall said, smiling out at the crowd. “Our next song, we haven’t performed in concert before, actually. It’s also off of Take Me Home, one of the bonus tracks. Thought it might be fun to give it a shot. So, here’s Magic!” The crowd screamed wildly as Niall announced it. I was surprised they were performing something they had never done before. That surprised me.

Then I saw Niall look at Lucy. And that was why. The song was for her. The boys were dedicating songs to the girls and I tonight, but weren’t telling anyone. So this song was meant for Lucy. That was so sweet!
