Today is 22d February 2013. Today is the day that 5 Seconds Of Summer open and kick off the One Direction Take Me Home U.K.

I've been sat with Mali for the past 30 minutes, near the back of the 02 arena just so Luke and I don't make eye contact, while the boys Soundcheck everything.

The One Direction boys were sat on the floor seats watching them. Mali and I were trying not to freak the fuck out.

"This is so surreal," I say out loud instead of in my head.

"I know," Mali said, I could tell by her voice that she was smiling, "my little brother isn't that little any more."

"I can't believe he's 17 already. I can't believe I'm 17 in June."

"I remember when you were first born."

"Was I a really ugly kid?"

"Have you see baby pictures?" She asked, turning to look at me.

I nod my head because I think it'd be crazy if you hadn't saw at least one baby picture of yourself.

"You were a very cute baby," she smiled, "so was Calum."

"Must run in the family because you were a cute baby."

"Must be the Hood genes that make us very attractive."

"Must be."

"Mali," we heard Calum say into the mic.

We both jumped in our seats.

"Yeah," Mali screamed, just so Calum could hear her.

"We're gonna do an actual song now and then we're gonna head round the back too, meet us there once we've finished," Calum said.

"Okay," Mali screamed again.

"I think I'm deaf now," I joked.

"I don't even know why he had to tell us that," she sighed.

"Neither do I," I lightly laughed, "I'm glad he didn't say my name because I don't even know if Luke know it's me with you."

"Calum probably blurted it out somehow."

"That's true," I laughed.

I heard the sound of the drums and the area I recognize the song almost immediately. There was less than 50 people, the majority of them on sound or something to help the boys.

"Within a minute I was all packed up. I've got a ticket to another world," Calum sang, "I don't wanna go, I don't wanna go."

I found myself singing along.

"The silent words are hard to speak, when your thoughts are all I see," Calum continued, "don't ever leave she said to me."

"When we both fall asleep underneath the same sky, to the beat of our hearts at the same time. So close but so far away. Can you hear me?" Luke sang, he was looking at me and Mali when he sang. He definitely knew that I was here. My breathing hitched as I began to figure that he was singing to me.

I looked over at Mali to see that she was singing along. She wouldn't feel as emotional as I do.

"She sleeps alone, my heart wants to come home. I wish I was, I wish I was beside you," I mouthed as Luke sang, "she lies awake, in trying to find the words to say. I wish I was, I wish I was beside you."
