Chances (A One Direction Fanfic)

Chapter 5

(okay, so I know I had a Chapter 5 up before, but I got some outside opinions that helped me see that I made everything happen way too fast, so for that, I apologize. I did write that at like 2am, so that could be a reason. However, this revised version is a lot better, I promise. I hope you enjoy! Please vote, comment, and share if you like it! love youuu. xx -emily)

Chapter 5

HARRY’S POV

            I couldn’t keep my eyes off of her. I would purposely make my way over to her side of the stage throughout every song. I mean, she was gorgeous, and that was the main reason I was drawn to her. I kept winking at her and smiling, making sure to get her hopes up and make everything believable. I knew that this was all an act,  but she didn’t, and I had to keep it that way.

CATHERINE’S POV

            Harry kept staring at me. Why was he staring at me? I mean, fuck, I didn’t care. Harry Styles was staring and smiling at me. I’m not sure why. All I knew is that I got to be with him later. I got to stare into those gorgeous eyes of his and talk to him. I got to watch the way his dimples stood out when he laughed or smiled which I would never have thought would be because of me.

            I was having so much fun at this concert with my best friends. We danced and laughed throughout the songs. As much fun as I was having, I knew there was more to come later, and that was what I was looking forward to.

            The boys ended with Don’t Forget Where You Belong, and as soon as the lights came on, we made our way to the side of the stage. We presented the guards with our lanyards, and he let us through, another guard showing us the way backstage. We were met by Karen, who introduced herself to Paige and Jane. Harry was quickly behind her, slightly sweaty from the show. He approached me with a smile.

            “Hey, did you like the show?” he asked smiling sweetly.

            “Definitely. You sounded great,” I said smiling. He smiled, his dimples showing.

            “Thank you. I do what I can,” he said winking.

            “Oh, I’m sure,” I said giggling softly. He laughed softly and stared into my eyes. God, he was beautiful.

            “Well, I’m gonna shower. See you soon, babe,” he said winking as he walked away. Fuck. Why did he have to be so attractive? There was nothing bad about him. He was so perfect, and I needed to know him.

            Jane and Paige were talking with the rest of the guys and laughing. I made my way over to them, joining in the conversation. Niall and Louis were cracking jokes, which sent everyone into multiple fits of laughter, including myself.

            The girls and I waited on a couch in a lounge area backstage. We were told that there wouldn’t be a tear down tonight because they were doing two shows in LA. We laughed and tried to keep our cool while still gushing about the guys. Jane would whisper perverted remarks about Zayn’s ass, and Paige and I would laugh so hard. Thankfully, nobody was around because I laughed so hard that I snorted, making everyone laugh even more. Just as Jane was about to say something, Harry waltzed into the room. He sat next to me on the couch, closer than I thought he would.

            “You look gorgeous, did I mention that?” he asked. I could feel the heat make its way to me cheeks.

            “Thanks,” I whispered, smiling. Jane and Paige got up going to find the bathroom which I knew was just an excuse, so they could leave Harry and me alone together.
