Elounor: From The Beginning

Showtime

" Oi Leprechaun easy with the throwing!" Eleanor called out jokingly to Niall dodging yet another flying cushion directed at Louis.

" Sorry El won't happen again" He apologised trying to hide his sheepish grin.

She smiled at him and continued sipping on her Starbucks as the boys discussed the set list for the upcoming show they were travelling to.

She sat beside Danielle and Louis, she took solace in the fact Danielle looked as bored as she was feeling and she wasn't alone.  The two girls moved closer together and engaged in their own private gossip session excluding the boys.  Eleanor longed for her friends back in Manchester and her girly chats with Danielle helped her keep her sense of normality. Travelling with Louis was hectic, late nights and lavish parties were fun but she still missed her regular girly nights in with her friends. She and Danielle had become especially close on tour and Eleanor counted her a good friend, they went shopping together and watched the shows together, laughing and chatting mostly. She admired Danielle for her dancing and also her love for Liam, she could certainly see a wedding in their future.

As the tour bus pulled up outside the O2 fans gathered trying to get as close as they could before being roughly pushed back by bodyguards. Danielle and Eleanor were always the first off the bus ready to be escorted inside safely, the real madness began when the boys stepped foot outside.

Danielle and Eleanor stayed close together as a team of guards followed them inside the building, the screaming and camera flashes could give anyone the impression they were A list celebrities.

Eleanor could see Louis giving her a goofy thumbs up sign as she neared closer to the door and she smiled at him, typical  Louis.

Once inside they were handed their Access all areas badges to wear and given directions to the backstage area where they could wait until the show began. Once the show was under way they could sneak into the crowds and watch their boyfriends perform. In the meantime Danielle and Eleanor wandered around aimlessly giggling at everyone flustering in a panic to get everything done in time before the show.

" Fancy a cheeky drink?" Danielle whispered pulling Eleanor into an empty corridor where no one could hear them.

" I'm dying!" Eleanor gasped in relief as Danielle pointed her in the direction of a mini bar for friends and family of the band members. Danielle grinned at her and they made their way to buy some drinks.

Once settled with their cocktails they made their way to the backstage area to wait for the show to begin.

Eleanor caught a quick glimpse at Louis long enough to blow him a kiss and mouth Good luck! Before he suddenly disappeared again in a rush. As the show began Eleanor and Danielle made their way to join the crowds eyes glued to their boyfriends taking on the stage like it was their home.

Her eyes welled with tears as Louis dedicated Little things to her and watched her all throughout the show blowing her little kisses and waving to her. The show ended all too quickly for the girls and before they knew it they were grudgingly making their way through the seats to go backstage again. They were taken to the dressing rooms to wait for the boys their nerves slowly beginning to build up. When they emerged, sweating and panting they wasted no time rushing to them hugging and kissing them. Louis draped his arm around Eleanor and suggested they make their way to the bus. Holding hands they rushed to the bus trying desperately to not get caught, once inside they burst into a fit of giggles at the attempted mission impossible quest back to the bus. A typical day for Louis and Eleanor.
