 Alyssa Payne

            The usual warm weather of Australia greeted us as we walked outside of the hotel. It was fun, to be honest, being here with by friends. I honestly don’t know why we’re here, since Harry won’t even tell me.

            But I’m recking it’s because we’re seeing five seconds of summer preform tonight in Sydney. Their music has always entertained me, and I was glad I got to do something productive.

            Arianna wanted to shop with me today, since we needed something nice to wear for the concert. I didn’t see the point in wearing something fancy though, since it was just a concert.

            We were currently inside a mall we have never heard off, inside of a store that sold dresses. “Okay,” spoke Ari with excitement in her tone. “Which one?” she asked, holding my options infront of her.

            “Ari, it’s just a concert by a punk rock band. Do you honestly think that you would need to wear a dress? It’s not a soiree.”

            She smirked at me. “Who knows. I might just be wearing this for the sakes of falling for, so to say, Calum Hood.” I rolled my eyes, nudging her shoulder. “You can’t take him. He’s Harmony’s. And besides, you have Niall.”

            Harmony was our closest friend back in California. She had, or still possibly has, an obsession with Calum Hood; a member from Five Seconds of Summer. He was perfect for Harmony, but my face scrunched up with the thought of him being with Arianna.

            “I know, I was just kidding. Besides, I wouldn’t trade Niall for anything nor anyone. I feel like we’re five years old again; fighting for men and calling ‘dibs.’ But, you know, if you weren’t currently dating Harry, you could date Michael. I mean, you and Michael would be cute together. I can see it now. Alysael.”

            I playfully pushed her. “That was just awful, Ari. You usually come up with better names than whatever the heck that was.” We all laughed throughout the store. Ari did buy a dress, a rather nice one indeed, and insisted on me to get one. After many times of telling her ‘no,’ she bought a dress for me.

            While walking through the store, we grew rather hungry and decided to stop at Cinnabon to get a drink. Two young girls noticed us and started giggling as they approached us.

            “We are so sorry to bother you, but, could you possibly take a picture with us? Harry and Niall’s girlfriends with us would look epic!”

            “Of course,” we replied. Our smiles portrayed onto the little girls’ cellphones. “Thank you,” thy giggled. As we walked away, I thought about the little girls. Why didn’t they want to tear my eyes out, knowing that I’m not Harry’s girlfriend anymore? Maybe they didn’t find out.

            Our eyes scanned over the stores that held various articles of clothing until we had overheard our names being shout from across the mall. The distant shout had been made by a man by a newsstand.

            In curiosity, we walked over there and picked up today’s headlines Fight For Love: Harry Styles fights management for the girl he loves

            “Wait what?” asked Ari. I showed her the article as we read it together:

On a concert that had been themed as a Christmas Eve in March at a One Direction concert, their back-up singer, preferably known as Alyssa Payne, otherwise known as Alyssa Sander, got offered a record deal. After declining herself from the offer, she went back under Modest! Management; the management she was under with One Direction before her record deal. However, due to the terms of Modest!, they have decided that Alyssa Payne and widely known Harry Styles could not date anymore. Harry himself marched up to Modest! just yesterday to demand justice for love. After debating with management and his band mates (Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, and Liam Payne) Modest! has let them be together, which must be a happy occasion for this couple. More on the story…
