4 Years, 4 Reasons - Harry Styles Fanfic

Chapter 2

We followed Samantha, passing by many doors and hallways. Finally, we came to a door guarded by two security guards.

"Hey, Samantha. These the girls that get to meet them?" The guard smiled at our excited faces.

"Yep! These are the lucky gals." Samantha replied.

"Go on in, ladies. But don't go all crazy on me! I don't want to have to carry any of you back out." He winked.

Samantha laughed. "They'll be fine, George."

And with that he opened the door.

I examined the large backstage room. On one end were the bright mirrors and makeup tables, obviously where the boys got ready before the show. There were multiple racks containing different costumes that would all be worn sometime or another during the tour. On the other end of the room were some leather couches, a snack table, and a cooler with water, pop, and even a few beers.

At first we all just stood there, taking it in. When I heard Samantha chuckle behind us, I snapped back.

"Come on, girls, I'll introduce you to everyone."

Like we need to be introduced I thought, but kept it to myself.

Samantha led us over to the couches, where we were greeted by stylists, makeup-ers, and who knows what else. There were lots of people there, all with a specific job. It dawned on me how much effort must go into these tours.

"And, the ones you've been waiting for." Samantha smiled.

"Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, Liam Payne, and Zayn Malik!"

"Hello, loves." Louis smiled and stood. He didn't hesitate to hug each of us, and the other three followed suit.

"Now you're probably wonderin where Harry is, yeah?" Niall asked in his cute Irish accent.

"Um..." I laughed "a little..."

Niall chuckled. "He'll be out in just a minute, he had to run to the toilet just before you got here."

We all sat down on the leather couches, us asking questions about what it was like to be on tour, them asking questions about our everyday lives and families.

It was like a scene from one of those dreams that you're sad to wake up from, something I never believed would happen to a girl like me.

Just as I was beginning to wonder if Harry was avoiding us, he walked out of the bathroom door.

Harry's POV

I've never been a big fan of the whole meet-and-greet-after-a-show thing. We give each and every one of our performances our all, and I’m usually pretty tired afterward. But, the lads said they thought it would be fun to talk to a few fans, since it had been awhile since we had a real conversation with any, rather than just smiling when they screamed our names or signing autographs and taking a few pictures. So, I went along with it, hoping that these Ohio girls wouldn't be too crazy.

I had just shut the bathroom door when I heard them come in. It sounded like there were four, Emily, Madison, Gabby, and Anna maybe? I wondered why Samantha hadn't given out the 5th pass, but fine by me. I just wanted to get this over with. It's one thing talking to girls in the audience during a show, but having to come back to shower and change after, just to talk to more? Not fun.

When I heard their conversation coming to a pause, I figured it was my turn to make an appearance. The sooner we were introduced, the sooner they would leave.

I opened the door and walked out.

"Hey, there he is! We thought we'd lost you, lad!" Liam joked.

I smiled and glanced at the four girls on the opposite couch.

That was when I stopped dead in my tracks.

On the end, closest to Louis, was one of the prettiest girls I'd ever seen. Here hair was dirty blonde with some natural highlights that fell a little bit above her shoulders. Her eyes were a kind of bluish-grey, that I felt like I could get lost in, and would never want to find my way out. And her smile! It seemed to light up the whole room.

"Uh...having trouble walking there, mate?" Zayn chuckled. That's when I realized I had stopped walking on my way over to the couch, just staring at this beautiful girl.

"Oh, uh...yeah...I mean no! No, I'm uh, I'm fine." I walked over and sat down to Louis, so I could be closest to her.

"How are you girls?" I asked. But I really just had my eyes fixed on the one.

"Great! That was an awesome show!" one said. "Oh, I'm Madison by the way!" she said. She too was pretty, with wavy blonde hair that fell down to her mid-back and bright eyes.

"And I'm Gabby..." the middle girl said. She had bright, shoulder-length blonde hair, and a kind smile.  

Finally, the one I had been waiting for spoke up.

"And I'm Emily. This is my little sister, Anna."

I suddenly realized that just because Emily would leave the dressing room tonight, she wasn’t going to be leaving my mind any time soon.

Ahhh I love this part!! Things are about to get interesting :) And special shout out to the great girl this is dedicated to, Emily S <3 She moved to Florida recently and I'm really missing her :(   Love you, Mini Me!
