Let Me Show You

11. We[a]kly London

"WE'RE LIVE IN 10!" I hear a deep male voice yell from outside the door. The boys are all styled and are just relaxing on the couches now. I decided to remain standing while I snap a few more pictures of them laughing and being themselves. When I think I have enough pictures of them sitting, I head out to wander around.

"We're live in 10 minutes!" I hear the same deep voice casually say into the room across from the boy's. He takes a few steps backwards towards me before turning around and crashing right into me. "Shit! I am so sorry! That was all my fault..." When he finally lifts his head up I instantly notice his amazing dark caramel eyes and perfectly shaped jaw line. "Sorry! I'm Beckett! What's your name?"

"Um, hi, I'm... um..." Get it together! "I'm Dakota" I finally manage to spit out.

"Hey Dakota! Are you new? I haven't seen you around before..." He runs his hands through his perfectly shaped hair flexing his arm muscles. Show off, I think while trying to control my urge to laugh. Compared to him I am a weakling. Well compared to anyone I'm weak.

"Yeah, I am One Direction's new photographer." As soon as I say it I begin to feel a bit embarrassed. It sounds very fangirl-ish.

"Oh that's so cool! I guess we will be seeing each other around a lot! I am the lads assistant stage director."

"I guess we will be seeing each other a lot" I say as I let out a nervous laugh. "I was just headed out to get some fresh air but I guess it's time for me to get in position to snap some more pictures! See ya 'round!"

"See you later Dakota!" He smiles and I almost collapse of weakness. This should really be called Weakly London with an 'a'.

"PLACES EVERYONE!" He yells still looking directly into my eyes smiling. Now I regret not putting on some of that make-up Valorie bought me. Just as I am about to walk away, I am pushed forward by the boys who are all trying to get out of the room at the same time.

When I can finally see again, I realize I'm in Beckett's arms. I look up to see him smiling perfectly down at me. My cheeks turn bright red and I hear the boys laughing but I'm not sure what at. After I manage to stand up on my own, I see that the boys are laughing at Louis who was pushed down to the ground. With Beckett off to the side smiling and looking right at me, I pull up my camera.

"That interview was weak!" Harry says starting to strip as we get back into the dressing room.

"Yeah it should really be called Weakly London with an 'a' instead" I say hoping he will understand.

"That's funny Dakota" he says laughing and shaking his head as he enters the changing room already half naked.

"What's funny?" Zayn asks as him and the other boys come strolling into the dressing room.

"Nothing" I say quickly snapping a few pictures.

"Geeze! Don't you think you have enough?" Louis asks sounding somewhat annoyed.

"What? You don't like the attention?" I say as I snap a bunch of his face.

"Now that's funny!" Zayn says still not letting go of what Harry said just before. I shake my head and put down my camera. Louis looks flustered so I pull out my phone. It's already time to head to the stage for the boy's rehearsal. Just as I am about to ask if we need to get going Valorie walks in.

"ALRIGHT BOYS! Lets head to the stage! Move move move!" Well that answers that question. Harry comes out of the dressing room fully clothed but now in all black.

"Harry you changed! Why love?" Mo asks as she appears to be coming out of the bathroom with some strange guy. I seem to be the only person who notices and when she catches me staring, panic flashes across her face.

"Because I felt like it." Harry says while rolling his eyes. When I don't say anything to Mo she visibley begins to relax. The strange guy she was with walks by and I catch his name on a name tag. Zander Kane.

I immediatelty recognize the name as part of the security for the boys. That's strange...

"We should be out the door five minutes ago!" Valorie yells exiting the room. I grab the camera and my purse and follow her out.

"Dakota!" I hear someone yell behind me. I turn around and see Beckett struggling to gather all of his stuff which is falling out of his arms. I run over laughing to help him. "Thanks" he says once he has everything under control. "I was just wondering which van you were going to take so maybe we could sit together... if you don't want to it's fine, I would understand."

"Oh, well I think I'm supposed to go with the boys..."

"That's fine! I'll just see you at the stage!" He nods his head not letting me finish my sentence and walks off towards the van in the front of the string. I want to call after him but something prevents me from doing so. Actually, someone prevents me from doing so. Louis Tomlinson.

"Hey love. Listen I just wanted to talk about what happened inside where I flipped at you for taking so many pictures. It was wrong of me and I should not have done that. It would be like you yelling at us for singing to much. It's your job and I don't want there to be any bad vibes between us."

"Oh yeah that's fine! You guys are under so much pressure I'm sure it's hard for you to keep all of your emotions in order. Thanks for apologizing but you didn't have to, I'm all good if you are!" I answer honestly speaking from my own experiences with bottling up your emotions.

"Thanks Dakota, you really are one special girl ya know" and with that he is back to goofing off with the boys and I'm left wondering if there is more to this new side of Louis I have just discovered.
