14 days later.....
"I can NOT believe we're doing our first live concert!!!" Hannah giggled excitedly as we drove to the Staples Center in LA. we were all practically squirming out of our skin with excitment and nerves. We parked back stage and all three of us ran out of the car as if it were on fire. Rebecca sighed and told Will to please take our suitcases to our dressing room. We all immeadiately ran onstage and gazed out into the empty venue. we had been coming daily for the past week or so for our rehearsals, but i thought i'd never get used to the happy rush i got when i was on stage. i could tell the girls shared this feeling. "Girls. stop wasting time and come. we only have a couple of hours until the show begins." Rebecca told us as she ushered us backstage. i could barely sit still when our stylist was curling my hair. i had 5 changes of clothes for the night. Since, i had gotten the privilage to choose my own clothes for the night i decided to pay homage to One Direction. i would start of with a red shirt, dark blue blazer, and faded jeans with white hightops. my next outfit consisted of a red polo and tan highrise shorts with sailor blue Supras, my third outfit was a red and blue plaid shirt with some dark jeans and red Supras, my fourth outfit was a white striped shirt, suspenders, and some red skinny jeans with some black Toms. My last outfit was a red varsity jacket, dark shorts and black Vans. The girls had similar outfits in variated colors of red, blue, white, grey and denims. Soon enough it was about time for the concert. i could hear the shrieking of the fans as the butterflies turned into vipers in my stomache. i straightened my blazer for about the 20th time. "You look great." Chloe assured me as she looked into the mirror at her own reflection. She was wearing dark shorts and a red striped shirt. her hair was straightened to perfection and her make up was stunning. i looked over at Hannah who also looked amazing in a short blue and red striped 'cupcake' dress. we looked at each other as we walked toward the stage. we said a short prayer before we ran onstage. at first we were blinded by the bright lights but then all we could see and hear were our shrieking fans. I looked and grinned as Chloe took the mic. "Hey guys. Its really insane to be here right now and we just wanted to say we wouldn't be here without any of you supporters. We love you." everyone cheered as we took our places and the music started. i could say my heart was in the music, but it really wasn't. sure, this had always been my dream. to sing in front of a large crowd of people, but i didn't want to get there by stealing someone elses life. because the more i thought about it that was what i'd done. i'd wished that we were famous but in the process changed the people i loved's life. i had killed One Direction. i looked out into the crowd trying to find Niall, Harry, Zayn, Liam and Louis. i couldnt see them anywhere but i did find people who looked weirdly familiar. then i realized it was my family . my heart instantly soared. My mom was there, she didnt look much different since the last time i'd seen her. My sister was now 11 and was busily texting on what looked like an iPhone, next to her was Hannah's sisters, Erin, Lauren and Alicia, and her mom and dad. Right next to them sat Chloe's sister Mia who didnt look much different either, her brother Elias who was much taller and buffer than i remember, and one of my favorite people ever, Pheobe Blue. i almost burst out in tears as i saw her. She was soo grown up. she was 14 now -the same age i'd been only a couple of weeks ago- and extremely gorgeous. after a couple of songs and our third dress change it was time for the twitter questions. "Itzel, can you please call up five random people onto the stage? from Nirvanlover96" i read aloud. "Well Sure!" i giggled. i had a plan. i acted as if i randomly chose from my list of followers. "NiallIrishBoi93, DJMalik, LouisTheTommo, BetterStyles, and LiamPayne, will you guys please come on stage?" i looked out into the crowd as they each came from different parts in the front. they all quickly walked on stage and smiled charmingly at the crowd. my heart shuddered. They were ment to be on stage, and i had taken that from them.
