I gulped on the limited air I had left. This is seriously happening to me, out of all people, isn't it?

I looked around to see if anyone else was wearing a bright yellow shirt. The only other person was Chloe, but she has strawberry blonde hair.

"Tara, he called you up." Chloe said in shock and somewhat awe. Her mouth dropped all the way down to her collerbone.

I turned down the aisle of obnoxious girls, and started walking up to the stage, which felt like a hundred miles away. The boys had their eyes on me. One Direction are looking at me.

This cannot be happening, no way. Not at all. I am dreaming, I am sure of it. Soon I will wake up and this will all be over.

The whole place was cheering, making my ears ring and my heart pound uncontrollably. What in the world did I do? You would think they would be mad that they didn't get called up, but apparently not.

Let me get this into my mind, Niall Horan picked me out of the whole audience out of about 10,000 other directioners! This is absolutely unreal.

I walked up the pitch black steps to get up to the elevated stage, escorted by security.

They are right there. I could touch them, but that would be pretty weird. They all watched as I walked down in on the side of the line they made, next to Harry. I am screaming inside my head.

Harry Styles. I am standing next to Harry Styles. I resisted the urge to pass out then and there; that would've been quite embaressing.

"So, what is your name?" Harry asked, smiling at me while holding his microphone.

He held out his microphone for me to talk in, and I forgot my name for a couple of seconds.

"T-Tara Wilson," I said with barely any voice left from screaming. My face was bright red for some unknown reason.

The crowd cheered, and Harry set his arm on my shoulder. I tried not to have a heart attack as my cheeks warmed even more.

"And where are you from?" Harry asked once again. I don't know how he expects me to do anything at the moment, let alone say where I'm from.

"Blue Lake, South Carolina," I say a little louder.

Some girls cheered me on. I am guessing that they were from Blue Lake, too.

"Since you came up here," Liam said somewhat energetically, " After the concert you get to come backstage with us! "

Did those words just come out of his mouth? I think I'm dreaming. I smiled like an idiot from ear to ear.

"W-wow. Thanks!!" I said and I ran off the stage before anyone could see my enormously red face.

You could see Chloe's big smile from about a mile away, that's how big it was.

"OMG! OMG! OMG!" Was all she could get out of her mouth.

"You can come with me if you want." Man, that girl squeezed the living daylights out of me.

"Thankyouthankyouthankyouthsnkyou!!!!!!" She screamed, granting us some very weird looks from around us.

After the concert, me and a VERY excited Chloe went backstage. Even though I was sad the concert was over, it was still beyond amazing.

We both got to a door behind the enormous stage. It said Dressing room, VIP guests only.

There was a security guard standing in front of it.

"Tara Wilson?" He said deeply and quietly.

"Yes, sir. This is my friend," I said, and we both showed him our backstage passes we got handed to. I want to get this over with, so I can see the boys again. Again.

I took a deep breath, exchanged a look with Chloe, then turned the doorknob.

"Tara!" the next thing I know, I am enveloped in a big One Direction hug. I know that they are friendly, but I didn't know they were THAT friendly. I liked it, though.

"Hi boys! This is my friend Chloe, and we are both HUGE fans!"

I can't believe that I am talking to the one and only ONE DIRECTION. They are seriously standing right in front of me. I could feel my face slowly reddening. Curse my pale skin.

"Cool." Harry said, looking at me in the eyes and smirking.

I could've just died right there, no joke.

The rest of the time was just me, Chloe, and the boys. We had so much fun, it went by so fast.

Time flies when your having fun, right?

I was pretty sad when the security guards told us we had to leave. When we did, Harry came up to me.

"Hey Tara, is it alright if I talk to you? " he asked kindly. His sexy, raspy British accent makes my heart melt.

This is the pretty much the best day of my life.

"Sure Harry, what about?" I ask, proud of myself that I can form words at a time like this.

"Alright. Me and the lads want to get to know you and Chloe better," Oh god. "Would you like to go to lunch tomorrow?" he asked sweetly.

My knees buckled, making me fall into the seat behind me. Well, it was definately better than falling on the hard floor. We were going to see them again.

"Oh my god, of coarse. Sounds like fun! Where at?" I say, not taking my eyes off of Harry.

"NANDOS!" I heard Niall scream from the couch. Of coarse, typical Niall.

"So Nandos I guess?!" I say, already planning my outfit for tomorrow. Time like this calls for drastic measures.

"I guess so," Harry says, taking a drink from his water bottle.

"Okay bye Harry!"

"Bye babe," He smiles, once again making my heart melt. He just called me babe.

"BYE!" I heard all Niall, Louis, Liam, and Zayn yell.

"Bye guys!" Chloe yelled as she got up from the couch. She came with me, opened the door, and walked out of the arena with nothing but pure smiles on our faces. Man, this was a good day.
