Alexis' Pov:
"Okay, so it goes like this," Liam plays the first few notes of their hit single 'What Makes You Beautiful'.
"And it goes like this," I sing the lyrics of the popular song, 'Moves Like Jagger'.
He laughs, "Okay now you try," he motions to the keyboard.
"Okay," I reply. I position my fingers over the keys and copy the notes Liam played.
"You're a natural!" He compliments me and I smile. Compliments from Liam always feel amazing, probably because it's so hard to earn his seal of approval.
"Thanks," I mumble.
"Guess you weren't lying when Katy Perry asked you if you were a quick learner," he jokes.
I laugh, "To be honest this is the quickest I've ever learned a song."
He grins and runs a hand through his hair, messing it up, "Yeah, I kind of figured that."
I respond with a laugh.
"Okay next part, this is the chorus now okay?" He looks up at me.
"Got it," I smile and watch his fingers.
My mind wanders away from the music. I think of Niall. I imagine his eyes, his smile, his laugh, everything that makes him, him.
It's pretty obvious why I would fall for someone like him. He's perfect. But then, I can't shake this nagging feeling that something is wrong.
There should be no doubts that I love Niall. I've swooned in secret for 7 years, why am I suddenly questioning my love for him?
I imagine Niall and I together, as a couple. It sounds like a dream come true, and yet, I still feel something wrong, something connected with Harry.
I stop myself, did I just say Harry? Harry and I hate each other, right? I can't deny he's ... decently attractive ... but we don't like each other, let alone love each other!
But whenever I imagine a future with Niall, I feel Harry's green eyes staring at me in that intense way they so often do.
"Alexis?" Liam questions.
"Yeah!" I immediately snap into focus.
He narrows his eyes, "How many times do you think I said your name?"
"Umm two?" I guess, biting my lip.
He shakes his head, "Eleven times Lex, I counted."
I shoot him a small smile, "Sorry Mr. Payne."
He laughs, "It's okay, now watch this time kay?"
"Okay!"

We all stand backstage. The boys are about to go on and perform. In like five minutes I will experience the first of many One Direction concerts, and I couldn't be more excited.
"Na na na..." Harry mumbles under his breath. I notice that familiar tune coming out of each of their mouths.
"Is that the first song you guys sing?" I question.
"Yup," Niall breathes as he bounces up and down shaking his arms.
"You okay?" I ask again.
"Pre-concert ritual," Louis responds for him as he adjusts his trousers.
"Oh," I mumble.
I can literately hear the screaming from behind the closed stage door, out in the hallway.
