The dark night sky covered us as we walked back to our stuff.
"Ice cream and sparkler time?" Zayn asked hopefully.
We laughed.
"I get the first one!" I shouted.
I ran for the basket but Zayn was close behind. I'm not the fastest runner but my long legs came in handy. I dived for the basket and ripped out the packet and lighter. Zayn pouted. I lit mine and handed it around.
"Guys!" Louis shouted.
We looked up at his orange light. He began waving it in the air as fast as he could. It wrote. ONE DIRECTION. We all grinned at it. We laughed and talked all of the long night. The guys even sang something for us. I was sitting on a log holding Harry's hand and hitting Louis with the other. I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket. I pulled it out. It was mum.
Mum- Where are u?
Me- Beach.
Mum- With who?
Me- Just some guys we picked up on the street.
She always asked stpuid questions.
Mum- Mia?
Me- The band of course and Roxy and Remi.
Mum- Are you coming home soon?
Me- Dont know, why?
Mum- Night shift again. Key is under the mat, I have to go xoxo Tell Loui Poo.
I laughed at my mum. That was probably the longest conversation I'd had with her in a week. It was always night shift.
"Loui Poo! Mummy says to tell you she's working night shift again." I teased.
He went scaret red.
"Shut up Mia!"
"I'm just trying to sound like mum. Thats what she calls you." I laughed.
We went home soon after and fell asleep easily.

I woke up the next day and ran down stairs.
"Morning!" I called.
I greeted most of them with a hug and Harry with a kiss. I sat down near them. They were around that paper again. I snuck a peek at it. I read the furst line when they snatched it away.
"You're insecure, don't know what for." I laughed.
They scowled.
"It doesn't go like that!" Liam snapped.
"Show me then Romeo." I said.
The boys began to tap the tune and Liam sang. I was hoping he would go further but he stopped.
"Sounds great! Can I hear more?" I asked.
They shook their heads.
"But tonight you can!" Niall said.
I looked quizzical.
"At the Arena, front row tickets remember!" He said.
I grinned.
"Yay!"
The day passed easily. We didn't do much. They rehearsed most of their songs and booted us out when they were practicing the new song. The concert was looming closer and closer. When there was two hours to go we decided to get ready.
"We have to go!" I said.
"Why?" Louis asked.
"Because there's only two hours." I said.
