I pulled the tickets out of the envolope and stared at them. Val looked at them too. They looked like I aways thought they did. They were about two inches wide and like four inches long. They had 'One Direction' printed on the center of them. Off to the side, it said the section, row, and seat number. Section A4, Row 3, Seat 6 and the other one was the same section and row but Seat 7.
"Oh my gosh." I gasped. "Val, you have to come with me." I begged her.
"NO WAY! You know I don't like them." she said. I know, my best friend hates my favorite band in the world but oh well, I hate the band she likes, we just deal with it.
"Please? They are almost front row seats!" I begged. I gave her a puppy dog look and she looked at me sadly.
"Fine, but you owe me." she finally gave in. I squeeled and hugged her. "I can't breath, get off."
I let her go and went to put my tickets away. I stashed them in an old 1D wallet my mom got me two years ago and put the wallet back where it was. I went back to the living room and then we left to go to Val's house. We drove to her house and my mom dropped us off. We said good bye and walked up to the door. Val unlocked the front door with her key and we walked inside and went up to her room.
"Where is everyone?" I asked after we got everything set down.
"Mom and Jake have doctors appointments, Sally and Dad are at work." she said. I nodded. Jake and Sally are her siblings. Sally is her older sister, 17 years old, and Jake is a year younger then us, 15. The three of them could be triplets they look so alike. I sat on the edge of Val's bed while she stuck my over night clothes in an empty drawer of her dresser and looked around at her room. She has rearranged everything since the last time I was here.
"I like it." I said absent mindedly.
"What?" Val asked me confused, looking up from her dresser for a moment to glance at me.
"Your room, it's nice, probably the best arrangment ever." I said. We sat down on the middle of her floor with all her nail polishand spent the next hour doing our nails.
After our nails were dry, we did our hair and then went downstairs and got something to eat. Val grabbed a few chicken peices from their dinner last night and just reheated them. I grabbed a pb&j sandwhich. After we were done making (or reheating) our food, we went back upstairs.
We ate our food and then did some more stuff. We stayed up till 1 in the morning being crazy girls. We talked about boys a lot and Val blushed every time I mentioned Cameron.
----A Week Later----
Val and I left school at lunch and met my mom in the front. We climbed into her van and left for the concert. It's been a week and I'm super nervous. Val doesn't seem as excited about it as me but that's probably because she doesn't like them like I do. After driving for two and a half hours, we finally reached St. Louis. Mom drove to the hotel she had called earlier in the week and we parked in the hotel parking garage and walked inside. Mom checked us into the rooms she reserved for us while Val and I looked around.
The hotel was huge. The check out desk was next to the entrance and exit but next to it was the hotel. The giant doorway with no doors opened into a massive open building. The rooms were around the edge and you could see the doors to the rooms. There was a railing around every floor so no one would fall over the edge. The rooms went up to at least ten floors. Off to the right was a glass elevator and a water fountain around the base. To the left was a café. The ceiling was made out of glass and you could see the clouds.
We walked over to the elevators after mom got us signed in and we saw that there was and indoor pool through a glass door next to the elevators. Mom pushed the fourth floor button and we waited for the elevator. After hearing the ding, the doors opened up and a few teenage boys and a girl walked out. Mom, Val and I took their place in the elevator and rode it to the fourth floor. After getting out of the elevator, mom walked over to the third door in the hall, room number D3. I glanced around at the other doors and saw that they were marked D1, D2, D4, and so on.
'D probably stands for the fourth floor.' I thought as mom opened the door to our room. We entered the room and set our stuff down by the two beds.
"Mom, there is only two beds." I said, looking at mom. She smiled and I got confused.
"I know, watch this." she said as she left the room. I looked after her in question. Suddenly, a door on the wall by the TV opened and my mom stepped through. "I got adjoining rooms, Val and you are going to get this room and I get that one." she said pointing through the door.
I nodded and me and Val set our bags in the corner and asked if we could go out for a bit. Mom agreed after a bit of perswation (spelling ?) and we left after we made sure we had our phones, room key, and a bit of money.
We went to the elevator and went down to the bottom floor. When we exited the elevator, we ran into the group of boys again, only this time, the girl wasn't with them. I glanced around and saw her sitting in the café with a few other girls.
"Hey girls." a blonde in the front said. "Where are you headed?"
"Out." Val said. She looked at me with amusement in her eyes and I just wanted to laugh.
"Why don't you join us? We were just getting ready to head to the mall." a brown haired boy said from the back.
"No." I said flatly.
The group of boys 'oohh'ed. "Stubborn, aren't you?" a black curly haired boy said.
I planted my hands on my hips. "Yes, I am." I said.
"Now, if you could excuse us, we have a date with St. Louis." Val said, grabbing my arm and turning and walking away. As soon as our backs were to the boys, we began giggling.
"The blonde one was kinda cute." she whispered.
"No, the curly black haired one." I suggested. We giggled a bit more as we left the hotel and tried to hail a cab. Nothing was working.
The blonde from the group stepped up to the curb and whisled between his fingers. A cab instantly stopped in front of us.
"I never got your names." he said, turning toward us.
"Valentina." Val said as she opened the door to the cab.
"Carressa. And what would your name be?" I asked, turning toward him to look at his face. He really was cute. He had glassy green eyes, perfectly chizzled ckeeks, a great smile, clear tan skin, and, OMG, dimples! His hair was blonde and wavy and kinda hung in his face. He stood a couple of inches taller then me and was looking down at me. The light hit his face and lit up his eyes. He was gorgous.
"Alex." he said. "Any chance I could get your number?"
I nodded and he handed me his phone. I punched in my number and sent my self a message so I had his number and handed his phone back to him. I gave him a smile before climbing into the cab with Val.
We went to the mall in St. Louis and bought a few things. I bought a limited edition One Direction CD and Val bought a 5SOS t-shirt. We grabbed lunch and then tried to get a cab to take us back to the hotel. I whistled like Alex did and it acualy worked. A cab stopped and acually backed up to give us a ride. We told the driver the hotel and he drove us striaght there. We payed the guy and went inside. We headed to the elevators but something caught my eye and I couldn't stop my feet from moving towards it. I walked around the corner of the pool and saw my mom sitting on the side relaxing. But that wasn't what caught my eye. Alex and his friends were slashing around in the pool, shirtless.
When Alex saw me and Val in the doorway, he hopped out and walked over to us. Without a shirt on, he looked even more attractive then earlier. He had some major nice abs. His arms were muscular and he looked like he could pick up a car. His wet hair stuck to his forhead as he looked down at us.
"Care to join?" he asked.
