"Today."  I whisper to myself as i roll out of bed. 

Today was the Why Don't We concert. Me and my best friend, Taylor, have been dying for tickets ever since we found out about them.  If anyone was excited, it was Taylor. She will not shut up about the blonde one. I think his name is Corbyn..? Maybe? I don't know. 

I walk out of my room to see Taylor all up and ready in my kitchen.

"Uhh, what are you doi..." i started.

"What in the world do you think you are wearing?"

I look down at my shorts and long t-shirt i slept in. "Is this a trick question?"

"Layla! Its one in the afternoon the show is in two hours why aren't you ready?" Taylor said while running out of breath after every word. 

"Taylor, its fine." I say emphasizing the 'n'. 

"Go upstairs, brush your teeth, fix your eyebrows, wipe your butt, i don't care but be ready in 30 minutes or I'm leaving without you."  

I drag myself upstairs and start to get ready. It's a meet and greet and a concert so i figured i should go light make up and thin clothing. *outfit above* As I finish the last curl Taylor comes in yelling at me causing me to burn the inside of my hand. 

"What the hell Taylor?" I gripe, wanting to smack her. 

"What? Oh, you're fine. We have to go now!" she screams like a seven-year-old.

I walk out of my house noticing that Taylor is already in the car, ready to go, smiling like a toddler on Christmas Morning. I get in my car and tune the world out. I sit there thinking what meeting Jonah Marais is going to be like. Is he gonna hate me? Is he gonna think I'm ugly? LAYLA STOP. I scream in my head. He will love you as long as you are yourself. I get snapped out of my thoughts as Taylor screams.

"Woah, what?"

"WE ARE HERE COME ON!"

We both get out of the car and head into the venue. The show was first and we were the only people there. It was getting hot outside so they let us in early. We rested our elbows on the stage before more people started to pile in. Eventually they shut the doors and the lights started to dim. 5 extremely attractive guys walk out. I immediately know which one is Jonah. He is way more cute in person. He passes cute, this kid is full on hot. I hear Taylor scream at Corbyn but decide to ignore it due to how amazing Jonah looks. I catch myself staring and look away. I look back up and see them all standing in a line. I look back up to Jonah, he looks back at me and winks. I feel my knees go weak. 

After the show is the meet and greet, at this point I am completely cool. The line went Daniel, Zach, Corbyn, Jack and then Jonah. Save the best for last i assume. 

I walk up to Daniel and give him a hug and we take a picture, same with Zach and Corbyn. But then i meet Jack who is 4 inches taller than me, which makes it slightly less awkward. We hug and i went in for a normal picture but out of no where he kisses my cheek sending slight shivers down my spine, which he notices. We get out of the picture pose and as i walk away saying goodbye. he winks. i get goosebumps.

Then, the only think i have been waiting for. I walk up to Jonah and give him the biggest hug i think i could possibly give someone. I look up to his face and notice him  already looking at me. 

"What?" i say chuckling.

He responds with putting his bottom lip in between his teeth. We get into a normal pose and feel Jonahs hand on my bare back. *since the shirt has a hole in the back* My heart is pounding at this point, i start to get goosebumps noticing that he is traveling down to my bum area. I feel him put something in my pocket, squeezing slightly and hugging me goodbye. Right before i released from the hug he whispered in my ear,

"Read the note, follow the instructions." he whispered making me get goosebumps in a way i never had before.
