Chapter: 9
I toughed the top of my towel deeper in so it wouldn't fall off and I opened the door...

'I have a package for Miss Miller.'

I laughed at Corbyn doing an impression of a mail deliverer.

'You look great. Especially in that outfit,' he said laughing, while scanning my body.

'Thanks. I thought I'd try something different.' I gave him a wink. 'I like that song btw.'

He smiled and responded;
'You listened to our songs?'

'Of course! I'm going to your concert. I gotta know the lyrics a bit!' I answered.

'But why are you here?' I asked him.

Corbyn handed me the package he was carrying.

'I'll see you soon,' he responded with a little smile and then left.

I closed the door behind me and opened the package.

'No way!' I said surprised.

In the box was laying the dress I tried on while shopping today. It was the one that was way too expensive.

I immediately threw away my towel and put on the dress.

'How did he know?...' I wondered out loud as I looked into the mirror.

I thought about it for a bit and then faced Kate, who was straightening her hair.

'It was you who told him, am I right?'

'You just looked so disappointed and you really deserve it,' she answered and gave me a sweet smile.

'No, I don't. After what happened with Liam,' I said looking down.

'I thought we agreed to forget about it?'

She gave me a smile.

'Thanks Kate.'

I gave her a hug.

After we got dressed and looked cute as hell, we drove to the venue. When we arrived, I saw a really long line of girls.

Kate parked the car after we passed the line of fangirls. We got out and I walked in the direction of the line.

'What are you doing?' Kate asked confused.

'I don't wanna be last in line,' I responded.

'We don't have to wait in line silly. We're going backstage,' Kate said excited.

'Really?!' I said, getting super excited.

We walked to the backstage entrance and I saw Jack talking to probably the manager or something.

'Hey!' he said and gave me a hug.

'Hey Jack!' I said while hugging him back.

It was quiet for a moment and I just looked at Jack, waiting for him to say something.

'Can we get in?' I asked, breaking the silence.

'Sure, but first, what's your name?' he asked with a serious look.

'You forgot my name?' I said with a laugh.

'That's a strange name?' he said with a confused look.

Of course Jack was messing with me.

'Jamie,' I said while rolling my eyes playfully.

'Jamie who? You gotta wait like everybody else,' He sang.

'Should have stayed on the sofa. Forgot I hate being social,' I sang along.

We all laughed and Jack let us through. We walked down a quite dark hall, until I saw Daniel.

'Hey Jamie and Kate!' he said with a smile.

The boys kinda knew Kate already, because she was the little sister of Liam, their old high school friend.

I hugged him and so did Kate.

'You guys look great!'

'Thanks, you look great too Daniel.'

I gave him a smile.

'Where's Corbyn?' I asked.

'He is just down the hall.'

'Alright thanks.' I responded.

I walked down the hall and Kate stayed and talked with Daniel. As I arrived, I saw Corbyn, Zach and a blonde guy I didn't know yet, sitting on the couch. They were on their phones and didn't notice me.

'Rude,' I said, trying to get their attention.

They all looked up from their phones.

'Wow...' they said in harmony while their jaws dropped with wide eyes.

I giggled and blushed a bit.

The blonde boy stood up and walked up to me.

'I'm Eben. Nice to meet you.'

'Jamie. It's nice to meet you too,' I said while we shook hands.

Corbyn got up and walked towards me.

'I'm really happy I bought that dress. You look amazing,' he said with a big smile, scanning me from head to toe.

'Thanks for the dress Corbyn. I love it.'

I gave him a hug.

'Jamie?'

I suddenly heard from behind...
