Second Chances ~ l.h.

Chapter 1

Tonight was the night; I was finally going to see my favorite band, 5 Seconds of Summer, in concert with my best friends! We've been waiting a year for this and it was finally going to happen. I stood in front of my closet looking through all my clothes looking for the perfect outfit, my thoughts racing a thousand miles a minute.

"What if we meet them? What if I meet Luke? What if he likes me? What if-"

My thoughts were interrupted by knocking on my bedroom door.

"Katharine hurry up! We have to go!" It was my friends Katey, Gillian, who we called Gill for short, and Christine. I finished dressing and opened my door.

"Who's ready to go to a 5sos concert?" I yelled and they screamed. We ran down the stairs and out the front door to the car laughing, giggling, and non-stop talking about how excited we are and how great the concert will be.

"Oh my god guys what if we meet them?" Katey said.

"I think I would faint." Gill said.

"I'll be speechless and embarrass myself." Christine added.

"I think I'll explode. You'll have to hoes me off the walls." I responded and we all broke out in laughter.

****

An hour later we finally arrived at the arena.

"Mom can you drop us off toward the back near the tour buses so we can try to see them before they enter the arena?" I asked my mom.

"I guess." She said hesitantly, as she dropped us off. "Just remember to stay together and keep your phones on you. Don't go anywhere by yourselves!"

"Ok mom!" I yelled back thinking "yeah where will we go by ourselves?"

"Alright, have fun!" she said. I watched her drive away toward my aunt's house since her house was about 20 minutes away a bit happy that my mom wasn't coming because as she said "she was not going to a concert, surrounded by a bunch of 'girls with raging hormones'."

Katey, Gill, Christine and I quickly ran to over to where the tour buses were so we could try to catch a glimpse of Luke, Michael, Calum and Ashton to come out; the whole time only being able to think "This night is going to be amazing!" Next thing I know I was pulled out of my thoughts, well more like pushed out of my thoughts; pushed by, literally, a wave of girls with raging hormones. I fell on my side and hit my head on the pavement, blacking out for a minute or two. When I finally opened my eyes, all I could fell was a pain coming from my leg- which was now bleeding- and throbbing from where my head hit the pavement. I feel so dizzy, everything is spinning and of course I lost sight of my friends in the sea of girls. I manage to pull myself up and make my way out of screaming crowd. I leaned against what I think is the side of a bus and slide down the side of the it so my knees are scrunched up to my chest not being able to support myself any more.

"Crap." I say to myself as I look at my finger tips and see blood on them from where I pressed them to where the pain is coming from my head. "I have to find help" I think to myself.

"Hey are you alright?" I hear somebody ask me. The voice was deep and had an accent to it, I may have been really dizzy but I could defiantly hear the accent, it wasn't that hard to miss. The voice was soft spoken and welcoming, almost inviting.

"No" I replied as the owner of the voice bent down next to me. I looked up to see who was talking to me and I became dumbstruck to find that I was staring back in the face of Luke Hemmings himself.

"Oh man you're bleeding." He said to me as he lightly pressed his fingers to my bleeding head. I winced at the pain that shot through my head from his touch.
