After following the man up the stairs and down some long hallways, we finally came to a stop. “have a good night.'” He said winking at me before opening the door for me, I stepped inside and my breathe was taken away. The room was huge and it was filled with people in beautiful dresses and suits. Huge chandeliers hung from the ceiling, fruit and cheese and crackers were placed on silver platters on the bar table. I felt my nerves kicking up again when I realised I didn't know anyone here. I made my way through crowds of people talking and drinking champagne and whine. While walking past I heard gasps, “theres mick ports's daughter!” I hate only being known as micks daughter. Being stalked by paparazzi 24\7 just to see what mick’s angel sara was up to. It was ridiculous. I didn't want to be here. I sat down at a seat near the bar and put my face in my hands, I could feel the tears start to come. I had to distract myself, I pulled my phone out of my bag and dialled the first name on my contacts list. The phone started ringing, please please pick up! “hello, this is angel speaking.” “angel! Thank god!” “sara?” “oh angel, I should never of come here.” 'sara, calm down!'”Angel calmed me down, I loved that about her. Reassuring me everythings going to be ok, she always knew what to say to make things better. I was to concentrated on what she was saying I didn't notice someone had sat in the chair beside me. “ok, thankyou so much. I love you, bye.” I hung up the phone and placed it on the bar table. I took a deep breathe in and stared at my phone, I must have been so nervous I didn’t even realize someone was sitting right beside me until I heard him speak. “i love your accent.” His accent was strong  and British it sounded so familiar. I looked beside me, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Harry Styles. Harry styles was sitting right next to me! Omfg! Omfg! Keep calm sara, keep calm! I stared at him in shock, was he talking to me!? I stuttered as I spoke. “i'm s-sorry, are you talking to me?” He chuckled, “is anyone else around?” the only person near us was the bar tentand who was cleaning his tables, everyone else was standing around laughing, talking and drinking champagne. I paused for a moment still in shock. “Sorry, just shocked, your harry styles, why would you talk to me?” He chuckled again showing off his dimples, his curls tickling around his face. I could literally melt just staring at him. He picked up his glass of champagne and took a sip before turning to me again. “what? I cant talk to the most beautiful girl in the room?” I felt my cheeks flush and I tried covering it up with a giggle. HARRY STYLES JUST CALLED ME BEAUTIFUL.  I fell silent again, I’m guessing he could tell how nervous I was because he started conversation again. “but seriously, I love your accent. Its australian right?” “yes, it is.” I blushed again. “and was that your boyfriend on the phone?” His eyes flickered to where my phone sat on the bar table and then back to my face. “what? Boyfriend? No.” I chuckled, “it was my best friend angel. These dinner parties make me kind of nervous, she always calms me down.” Harry nodded, he still had that cheeky grin on his face, he took another sip of his champagne and then stared right into my eyes before looking away again. “they used to make me nervous too. You get used to it.” I smiled and nodded. “can I buy you a drink?” He asked. “no its fine, I dont drink.” “oh” he replied smiling awkwardly. I panicked for a moment, dam it I just made things awkward.  Harry pushed his glass of champagne away from him like he had just broken a rule and he put his full attention on me. “so, whats your name love?” “sara.” “sara? As in sara ports?” “yes. Thats me.” Wow. Even harry styles knew about me! “oh! Your dad is well known.” “yeah, I know.” He now picked up his glass again and drank the rest of his champagne, he was now looking like the nervous one. What had gotten into him? He must of realised the confused look on my face as he spoke again. “you look nothing like him.” “you've met my dad?” I asked confused. Harry shifted in his chair uncomftably like he had just said something he shouldn't, he was silent for a moment until glasses started to be clinged together. A small man stood up on a chair to make an announcement. “ATTENTION EVERYONE!” The room fell silent. I saw harry watching me from the corner of my eye, like he was studying me. Dont blush sara, dont blush I told myself. “i'd like to thank everyone for being here tonight, to celebrate one direction being here in australia!” Everyone clapped and cheered, I looked beside me at harry who was now getting out of his chair, “please wait for me after the dinner.” He whispered to me then walked over to where the little man was standing. One direction being in australia, so thats why this dinner was on! I saw the 5 boys come from different parts of the room and come together to stand next to the small man. They looked like 5 angels, I saw them on the tv and all over the internet but they were so much better looking in real life. Liam started to talk “thankyou everyone for coming here on behalf of me and the boys! Australia is amazing and so are all you people!” The room broke out into loud cheers and claps again. Harry looked over at me again, flashed me a smile then looked away, louis must of noticed this because he looked my way and grinned. After the cheers and clapping had stopped niall was next to speak, “NOW” he announced “LETS EAT!”
