"Hey, Kiana come here I want to show you something!" My friend Lucinda yells from across the class room. I run over and ask what. "I just won One Direction tickets to they're concert tonight! Wanna join me?"
"Of course" I say in my Fluttershy type voice.
"Well then let's hurry up and go because we still need to get ready!" She shouts. I flinch from the noise and she immediately apologizes. I grab my bag and we run out of the school.
We get to my house and enter. Lucinda lives in my extra bedroom. Her parents kicked her out of her house when she was drunk one day.
"We're home!" Lucinda shouts down the stairs that we are already running up.
"Ok," my mom replies, "why are you in such a hurry?"
"We are getting ready for an One Direction concert tonight that I won tickets for!"
"Ok. Do you need me to drive you?"
"No. Thanks though!"
I am in my room looking through my closet for something to wear when I hear Lucinda shouting from down the hall in her room.
"Do you need help picking out an out fit, Kiana?"
She is in my room a few moments later to see me staring at my closet. She rummages through the clothes and pulls out a midnight blue dress that is slightly sparkly and a pair of her blue shoes to go with it. She hands me the clothes and I nod head in approval.
I run to the bathroom and get changed. When I come out Lucinda is wearing a purple shirt with Louis's face on it a pair of jeans and a pair of purple dress shoes. She sits me down in a chair and does a light hint of blue make up and puts my hair into a side ponytail and curls the ends.
"Thanks" I say quietly fearing someone could be listening.
"Your welcome!" she says so energetically!
*at the concert*
We walk up to the stadium and I'm slightly hiding behind Lucinda. She hands the guard our tickets and he escorts us to where the band is. My eyes widen when I see them. I catch Niall's eye and my heart skips like five beats! I turn my head down and look at my feet.
"Hey. I brought you here to enjoy yourself!" Lucinda says noticing my actions immediately.
"Watch where your going, bitch!" someone yells at me as I accidentally run into her.
"Sorry about that!" Lucinda says for me. I am now hiding behind her again!
"The bitch can apologize for herself!" she yells at Lucinda.
"Hey! I don't like you calling her a bitch! I let the first time slide over as a slip of the tongue but a second time after my generosity!! No one does that!" she shouts at the girl and walking closer to her with a killing glare in her eyes. Trust me if looks could kill that girl would be dead about 59 billion times over!
I notice Liam jump off the stage and run over to us.
"Excuse me ladies, but may you please stop fighting and take your seats." he says.
I start to back up when I run into more people I keep trying to go in different directions but keep running into people. I finally give up and just sit down clutching my head.
"Excuse me love. Are you all right?" Louis asks and I jump in fright and start to back up. Louis looks at me confused. Lucinda notices me and comes rushing over. She gives me a hug and helps me stand up.
"She's fine! Thanks Louis!"
"Are you sure she looks kinda pale," Harry decides to state. The entire band is coming over and I am starting to shake and lose my balance. Lucinda holds onto me tight so I don't fall over. I silently thank her for that.
"Come here love!" Niall states holding his arms out. I try to move away and end up tripping falling down. I get up and rush towards the entrance in tears. Lucinda is running up behind me with One Direction close behind.
"Kiana! Come back!" Lucinda yells after me.
"Kiana? That's a pretty name!" I hear someone say. That immediately makes me stop. No one has ever said that before. I was always laughed at because my name was weird. I run over to Lucinda and ask her to ask them if they really think my name is pretty.
"Kiana is wondering if you really think her name is pretty." she states boldly.
Everyone looks at me then back at her then back at me.
"Of course! I think it's a lovely name." Niall says stepping forward. "I'm Niall Horan! Would you like to introduce yourself?"
"She's-" Lucinda is cut off by Harry.
"He was asking her not you!" he says rudely yet sounding polite.
"Well I'm answering for her because she won't talk to you."
"Why not?" Niall asks looking hurt.
"She had a problem with bullies and now I'm the only one she talks to."
"Oh. That's kinda sad!" Liam says looking concerned.
"That sounds like it would suck! Did it suck? Well, did it?" Louis asks.
"Louis don't be rude!" Zayn says sternly. "Hey I'm Zayn Malik. I was once in your position. I had a bully problem so I'm shy and not out going. (A/N don't actually know if that is true but it is for the story so deal with it!) I know what it's like." My eyes go wide. I didn't know that!
"Did they hurt you mentally?" Zayn asks quietly. I nod yes. "Did they hurt you physically?" I nod my head yes again. He gives me a sympathetic look and says he's sorry for what I've been through. I walk up to him and using my eyes ask if I could have a hug. He understands and opens up his arms so he could give me a hug. I rush into them. I know I sound like I'm 5 but I'm just that shy!
******
The concert is nearly over when Zayn says he wants to invite someone to the stage he calls my name and I freeze up.
"Kiana. Where are you at?" Zayn says into the microphone.
Lucinda grabs my hand and she walks with me up to the stage. I freeze up again.
Niall sees me and motions for me to come up but I stay in my position. Lucinda gives me a gentle push and I take a step to balance myself only to stub my toe and then trip over my own feet and fall again! This time in front of an audience! Liam comes rushing over and helps me up. He grabs my hand and walks me over to where Zayn is at. I quickly hide myself behind Zayn.
"Everyone this is my new friend Kiana. She is very shy so please give her a nice welcome to the stage!" he says into the microphone. Everyone starts clapping and cheering. "Kiana come out from behind my legs they like you!" I still don't move. He moves the microphone and turns around and says its ok for me to show myself and that they won't hurt me. I slowly do as I was asked and move out of the way.
