Bandgirls // Luke Hemmings

Chapter 3 - Part 1

"WE'RE FINALLY HERE" I screamed. I quickly unbuckled my seatbelt and started to open the door.

"Bradley sit your ass back down before we crash" Hadley yelled. I sat back down and waited the 2 minutes it took to park. As soon as we were parked I ran towards the forum.

"BRADLEY" I heard all my friends scream, and didn't notice the car coming right for me. I quickly turned around in horror and watched the driver come to a sudden stop. I started walking back to my friends only to see their mouths hanging open wide. I turned around, and for a split second I saw that perfectly quiffed blonde hair that was instantaneously recognizable.

"I'm so sorry, we didn't see you there" the man with a 5 o'clock shadow and horrible combover said.

"I'm the boys manager let me offer you guys meet and greet passes okay?" He said with a nervous twitch in every word.

"Thank you so much" I said slightly squeaking. The man got back into the car, and drove the boys backstage so they could get ready for the concert.

"Is this real, did this really just happen" Carter asked.

"Yes, we're going to meet 5SOS" We all paused and just started screaming and jumping.

It was finally 7 o'clock and the concert was about to start. Right after I almost got hit we ran to our seats making sure to get there on time. Before we knew it they were running out, Ashton came out banging his drum, and cheekily smacking luke with his drumstick. 2 seconds in and I was already about to cry. A couple songs in and I was about to burst because they were about to play my favorite song, Don't Stop( and trust me I wasn't gonna stop).

I looked straight at Luke, singing those signature lyrics
"Don't stop doin' what you're doin'
Every time you move to the beat
It gets harder for me
And you know it, know it, know it".

I swear he was looking straight at me, but doesn't every fan say that. There was just something that was so familiar about that look, but I just shrugged it off and kept dancing. Soon enough the concert was coming to a close. Surprisingly we all cried(thank god we wore waterproof makeup). We were about to get up when the same man we met earlier pulled us over.

"Ladies I'm sorry, I'm new at this and the boys don't do meet and greets. But I can let you go backstage and talk to them for about 20 min" we were all very upset, but hey I'm not complaining we still get to meet them.

"Thanks" I said quietly. We followed the man backstage so we could see the boys. I turned around and whispered to the girls

"Okay, so don't be weird play it cool, and do great". What I meant by do great was really leave a good impression, for some of us it was easy to talk to celebrities, but for others it wasn't. We were all outgoing, just in different ways. Carter was used to talking to people, I mean with bubbly personality and sparkling blue eyes who wouldn't want to talk to her. Hadley was partially the same. She was just good at the whole speaking to strangers thing. Delaney didn't really care that much since it was 5sos and she wasn't much of a fan. Even though I was quite bubbly I could never talk to strangers, even if it was my favorite band. So let's hope I could get through this without vomitting. Thankfully we all has each other and that was comforting. We were gonna make our impression last on these boys, no matter how hard it would be.

"Alright girls, just go In here and I'll come get you well time is up". We paused outside the door just taking in the moment. We all took and deep breath and stepped forward.

"This is going to be the best night ever" we all said in unison. We fixed our shirts and our hair and opened the door to our best dream ever.
