Tonight was the night of the first show at KOKO. You sat backstage with your boyfriend Luke a few hours before the boys were scheduled to go on.
'I'm so nervous for tonight' he said. You stood up and walked over to him sitting down in his lap.
'Don't be' you reassured him wrapping his arms around his neck looking into his eyes.
'Well, if you're there I know it should all go fine' Luke says winking at you.
You laugh and kiss him on his lips. 'You know I'll be there, I wouldn't miss this for the world'
'It'd be better if you were in the front row, hint hint.' He winked again causing you to laugh.
'I'd love to be front row but who knows with your crazy fans, some of them have been queuing since 7am!' You exclaimed.
'I know but, please it would be a reassurance to me. You don't want me to panic whilst on stage do you?' He makes his eyes wide and pulls a puppy dog face. Oh no. Not the blackmail. A few seconds later you give in.
'Fine! I'll sneak in the moment doors open and pretend I made my way in with the other fans.' You held your hangs up in defeat.
Luke beams knowing he got his way. He kisses you softly on your lips before deepening the kiss his hands running wild through your way.
'WOAH KEEP IT PG PLEASE!' Someone yelled walking into the room. You and Luke look up to see Michael standing there grinning proud at himself for his comment. You laugh throwing a pillow of his head missing as he ducks at the last second.
'Ha! You missed!' He laughs sticking his tongue at you. You roll your eyes at him laughing as well. Ashton walks into the room announcing a sound check starting in two minutes.
'Sorry to have to take Luke away but we need our lead vocalist' Ashton says.
'As long as you bring him back' you smile. Luke bends down kissing you on your lips. 'I'll miss you' he says.
'I'll miss you too' you reply as he walks out the door. Down the corridor you can hear one of the boys making retching noises. Most probably Michael you think laughing. With Luke gone you decide to take a quick nap before the actual show comes around.
A few hours later you awake to a deep voice in your ear.
'Babe, wake up. Doors are opening in 5 minutes.' You sit up to see luke in front of you smiling.
'How long was I asleep for?' You ask.
'About 2 and a half hours. I came back from soundcheck and you were fast asleep but you looked to peaceful to wake up' he replied.
'Well thank you for being considerate. I better be off to get that front row space you want for me so badly.'
Luke laughs nervously. You walk over to him and take both of his hands staring him in they eyes. 'Luke. Don't worry, you'll do fine tonight. I'll be there supporting you.' You give him one last good luck kiss before disappearing out the door. You make your way to the stage area and grab a front row spot directly in front of where Luke stands as girls start to pour in running and screaming. About 20 minutes later the place is backed and the energy is buzzing. 'Hey,' a girl next to you says, 'aren't you Luke's girlfriend?'
'Yes I am' you reply with a smile.
'Well it's lovely to meet you, I'm sure Luke will be pleased to see you in the front row'
You smile back thinking about how the fan doesn't know about the conversation backstage and how nervous Luke is. Another 20 minutes pass and the lights suddenly go down. Girls around you start jumping and screaming. The curtain on stage drops and there they stand. 5 Seconds of Summer with Luke right in the front. You can't help but smile as he starts the opening chords to Out Of My Limit. The concert goes on and Luke catches sly glances at you throughout the whole thing. You couldn't even tell that he was so nervous backstage as he gives a flawless performance of each song. The boys start their final song Try Hard. Luke comes to the lyrics 'she came along to my show, nothing to lose, she's standing right in the front row, the perfect view' and stares right at you never taking his eyes off you. Fans all around you start screaming and looking at you but you just keep your eyes on Luke. As the show comes to an end and the fans clear out you make your way backstage and find luke with the other boys talking about the performance.
'Luke!' You tell running into his arms as he lifts you up and spins you around. 'That was amazing! I don't know why you were nervous in the first place.'
'Neither do I to be honest' he laughs 'But I definitely couldn't have done it without you because you really are the perfect view' he says bending down and kissing you intensely on the lips as the other boys (for once) aw in the background.
