A New Turn

Chapter 20

CAITLIN POV

The rest of the day passed by really quickly. I picked up everything quite quickly. I found the exam stuff really easy actually, and the dances looked great! I couldn't wait for December and it was only February.

Dani said she could drive me home. She was coming to the concert tonight as well. I was so excited.

We were both pretty quiet on the way home. Just some casual remarks on our excitement for tonight's concert. Liam had refused to tell Dani about anything, and of course I hadn't heard anything.

We both entered the elevator in the boys' building. They weren't home because they were going to the venue after all their press. I got out first.

"Ok, see you in an hour!" I said excitedly to Danielle.

"See you soon!" She spoke as the doors closed.

I walked down the hall and stopped at the boys' door. I hadn't been given a key yet but Harry had told me there was one under the doormat. I kinda thought that was a bad idea considering all of the crazed fans. But hey, their decision.

I let myself in and headed straight up to my room. I had an hour to get ready and I knew I would need every minute.

I dumped my bag in my desk chair and strolled into the bathroom. I thought I would do my hair and makeup before I chose what I was going to wear. But I needed to hurry because I knew that that would take up most of my time.

I turned the hair straightener on before grabbing all my makeup out of the cupboard. I didn't want to overdo it, so I just put on some foundation, a neutral eye shadow, a thin line of eyeliner, some mascara and a light pink lipstick. I thought that would be enough. I didn't want to be cake faced.

I brushed my hair out my dancing pony and began straightening as images of different items in my closest danced in my head. Did I wear a dress or just a skirt? Did I wear jeans or leggings? Garrrrrrrrr

I let my hair go and it actually looked alright. I loved my hair when it was straightened. It just always made me feel happier.

Ok, the moment of truth, what would I wear. I slowly walked back into my room and opened the cupboard doors. Some clothes stuck out more than others. I just wasn't sure.

I quickly gave Dani a call to see what she was wearing.

"Hey Dani! Quick question: what are you wearing?"

"Hey!! Um just a black straight skirt and a nice top."

"Ok thanks!" I hung up the phone. I knew exactly what I wanted to wear now.

I grabbed my favourite dress out of the closest and threw it on. It sat a few centimetres above my knee. It was a floral pattern with creamy coloured background. I had bought it ages ago and only worn it a couple of times, but I thought this would be a great occasion for it. I decided I would throw a cream blazer over the top. It finished it off quite nicely.

I stared myself in the mirror and was happy with the way I looked. Suddenly, I heard a knock on the door downstairs. I grabbed my phone and raced down to see who it was.

I opened it to see Dani and a familiar face. I immediately picked up that it was Bri.

"Oh my god! Caitlin! Hi!" I take it that she remembered me. Or Niall told her. Either way, I was happy to see her.

She ran in front of Dani and gave me a warm hug.

"Hey Bri! I can't believe you are here!"

"Small world! I actually couldn't believe it when Niall told me!"

After some catching up, a man dressed in head to toe in black knocked on the door.

"Hey Dani. Hey Bri. And you must be Caitlin?"

"Yeah that's me."

"Hi, I'm Paul Higgins. I'm the boys' tour manager."

"Oh cool nice to me you. Harry's mentioned you a couple of times!"

We followed him into the elevator and out into another black sedan. Jeez, these boys and their black vans. Were they secretly druggies?

The car ride was fairly silent. Bri occasionally asked me questions about Australia and what she was missing, which wasn't an awful lot. Except for the AFL...

We began slowing down slightly. I imagined that we were nearing the venue. Suddenly, the sounds of screaming girls echoed in my ears. Were they really this big?

The windows were tinted so they couldn't see them, but I could certainly see them. Most of them either wore shirts with the boys' faces or slutty skimpy skirts and crop tops. I thought it was Winter. Apparently not.

The screwing became muffled as we drove into parking lot under the venue. Everything felt really sketchy. I was really scared as to what would happen next.

The car stopped and Bri and Dani jumped out pretty quickly and began following Paul. I just shuffled along behind, unknowing of the next moment's events.

It all passed me in a blur. The only thing I noticed was concrete walls and floors. Really nothing spectacular as of yet.

Suddenly, more muffled noises filled my ears, half screaming girl and the other half was the singing voices of 5 boys (but it could be mistaken for angels) as we neared a door that had a sign with the words 'One Direction' in bold letters. Paul opened the door for us and they all quickly snapped a look at us.

Harry spoke up first "Hey girls!"

He ran over to give me a hug and the other girls. That was then followed by Zayn, Liam and Niall. But those 2 grabbed their girlfriends and took them over to the couches lying in corners of the room, and shared a few snogs...

Louis came over after that. He leaned in and gave me a hug. God he was warm. Why couldn't we stay like this forever?

I pulled away and walked towards a table covered in snacks and beverages. I stepped further into the room as Paul shut the door.

They all looked super cute in their tour outfits. Niall wore a plain red polo, chino pants and blue sneakers, Zayn wore a varsity jacket, chino pants and red sneakers, Liam were a blue plaid shirt, chinos and white sneakers and Harry wore a blue blazer, chino pants and red and white sneakers.

Best of all, was Louis. As much as I didn't want to admit it, he looked the cutest. He wore a blue and white striped tshirt, red jeans and a pair of blue toms. He looked so innocent and so manly at the same time. Was that a thing?

We all just chatted for a bit. The boys casually broke out into vocal warm ups every now and again. When Louis did it, I was really turned on.

How was I going to survive the show?
