It was 5:10 pm. I finished applying my eye makeup. I decided to put nothing on my cheeks so I just applied lip balm onto my soft pink lips. I blowed dried my long brown hair and decided to curl it. I wore my outfit that I bought at the mall 2 weeks ago.

I picked up my bag, detached my phone from the charger, grabbed my camera and headed off. I wore my sunglass as the sun started setting. I opened my bedroom door and to my surprise it was my sister, Johanna Mitchell Carter. She was standing outside my door and was about to twist the door knob open.

"Jay, where in the world you're going?" My sister asked, curiously.

"Joey, I texted you that I'm going to One Direction's concert, did you receive it?"

"WHY DIDN'T THE HELL YOU TELL ME? YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE THEM!" She yelled.

"Well you are always hanging out with either your boyfriend or your friends and get the hell drunk in a club. Afterwards get hangovers for the next following days! Now tell me how am I suppose to tell you huh, little miss drinker?!"

"FINE! Just film tons of videos and pictures okay?"

"I know, I know. I gotta go now my driver's waiting for me so get your ass out of my way."

"Whatever."

My driver dropped me outside the arena at about 6:25 pm. The concert starts at 7. I waited for Sam before we enter the arena and take our seats. Some girls talked to me and to be honest, I don't even know them. Maybe they're just my followers on Twitter or something. They said that I have the funniest tweets which was definitely not true. I thanked them for the compliment anyways and started walking towards the arena. About 10 minutes later, a car stopped alongside me. It was Sam. Her mom dropped her off.

"Hi! Let's go?" I asked her.

"Sure!" She beamed, excited written all over her.

Both of us walked towards the arena. It is damn big. About 20,000 people can fit in there and watch One Direction's concert. A chill ran down my spine as I walked through the pathway and onto my seat. Sam sat down beside me.

"Jay, can we take a photo? I'll post it on Twitter!" She said smilingly.

"Sure! Why not right?" I agreed.

We took a photo and Sam started tweeting it. Within seconds, I felt a buzz in my pockets. It was my phone. Twitter notifications. I swiped to unlock and opened Twitter. It was the tweet Sam posted.

@SamanthaCullenx: Here with @JCA_Carter at One Direction's first concert in Sydney! Very lucky to have the front row seats! xx www.twitpic.com/348A46cd2E

I hit reply.

@JCA_Carter: @SamanthaCullenx Yes! Very very lucky! 3 more minutes before the concert starts! X

@SamanthaCullenx: @JCA_Carter Yeap! Gotta go for now! Will tweet pictures after! x

Before we knew it, the concert started just in time we went off Twitter. The intro video came out and everyone started screaming violently. The boys had revealed themselves and the screams got louder and louder. My heart boomed and my ovaries had just exploded. It was only like 2 minutes since the concert started and I'm already jumping up and down. They started off by singing Na Na Na. I screamed so loud and partied all night long like there's no tomorrow. They sang Stand Up, Everyting About You, Moments and some covers. After that, they read out some of their favorite tweets from the fans.

"So Sydney, we have some tweets that we found interesting and we'll just read it all to you." Louis beamed.

They read 3 tweets and when the 4th one came, my heart fell off my chest. It was my tweet.

"Well I think this is our favourite tweet for the night. Here it is; I want your erection into my direction and when you guys did, you'll blow your skulls out." Niall read out loud.

The whole crowd went from screaming to laughing as the boys read my tweet. The boys laughed as well. Oh my gosh, that was embarrassing. I'm glad the boys found it funny and not offensive.

"Well that was from Jaycee Carter and she is seating at the front row, seat 8. Where are you?" Louis said as his eyes searched the crowd.

"Oh my god Jay! That was your tweet!" Sam squealed.

"I know and they're looking for me!" I replied back.

I shouted towards the boys who were scanning the front row. They looked into my direction. Thanked God I shouted loud enough to catch their attention because the crowd was yelling their heads off.

"Oh hello, Jaycee! What a nice name you've got!" Liam said and the boys agreed.

I thanked them. They waved and smiled at me. I did the same as well.

-

"THAT'S WHAT MAKES YOU BEAUTIFUL!" Harry sang his last line from their hit single, What Makes You Beautiful.

I really didn't want to leave. I just want the night to last forever. The screams had gone so much louder but it was slowly beginning to fade as an applause was approaching.

"THANK YOU SO MUCH SYDNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEY! YOU'VE BEEN AMAZING!" Liam shouted. The screams had gone louder than you could ever imagine with a mix of clapping. After the boys went backstage, people started leaving the arena. But some fans stayed for a bit longer, some were going back to their hotel and the others went home. Sam told me that her mom called her and she needs to go. We exchanged good byes and went our separate ways.
