I could tell we were getting closer to the stadium as the screams of crazed fans got louder. Just before we walked out into the arena a couple of security guards met us."Ladies," one of the security guards smiled. He seemed to be in his early thirties. "Please come this way, we will show you to your seats.

We followed behind the guards to seats above the stage with a side view. Our seats were named for each of us. I was sat between Mckenzie and Lottie.

Just as we sat the fans screamed louder and we noticed a small figure appear behind a drum set. It was Ashton.

I screamed hysterically and jumped up and down. All the girls watched me while laughing. I didn't care, I was so pumped to see my boys play their hearts out at their first big concert.

"YEAH ASH!" I yelled through my cupped hands. I knew he wouldn't be able to hear me but I yelled anyway.

Soon after Ashton appeared the rest of the boys came. Luke said a quick hello to LA then they began to play their amazing music just like they had at their first gig.

After thirty minutes of pure excitement the boys left and the crowd simmered down to a hum of energy.

My ears pounded with a never ending ring. After screaming so much my throat felt so hoarse I could barely talk.

"Wow those boys are pretty amazing." Lottie said.

I nodded. "Oh I know. You should hear them play acoustic," I replied.

"Damn they're hot." Gemma mumbled to us.

I laughed loudly, "You think?"

"Don't deny it missy." Lou snickered while pointing a finger at me, "Don't tell me you've never thought of you and Ashton together."

I bit my lip. To be honest I had never thought of that before. I only shrugged and turned back to look at the empty stage.

A count down on the stage's screens began. Each second clicked past with a beep. The crowd went absolutely insane.

"Ten...nine...eight," we yelled with the crowd, "Three...two...one!"

The boys of One Direction popped up from underneath the stage. From our side of the stage we were able to see Harry, Niall, and Liam. They waved to close seated fans and took sips of waters they held.

"Welcome everybody!" Liam yelled followed by an outburst of screams, "We're so excited for our first show! LA has been great to us, so great! So to start out the show we will be singing a little song we call 'What Makes You Beautiful.'"

Just as he said this the guitarist started to play. Of course everyone in the stadium knew the famous song, unless they lived under an uncultured rock. The crowd buzzed with the song.

The show was so incredible. The energy was so high I was shaking with excitement.

When the show was finished the same guards led us through the crowd of girls down to the main level of the arena.

A high pitched scream followed us, "LOUISE!" Someone yelled behind us. Lou was then tackled by a girl about fourteen years old. She fell forward but was caught by one of the guards. The girl was pushed off and taken away from us.

"Lou are you alright?" Gem asked frantically. Lou nodded and smiled.

Now many faces watched us. The familiar flash of cameras began and I could feel my face flush.

"C'mon Alice!" Lottie yelled while dragging me away. I must've looked like a deer caught in head lights.

We moved quicker now. As we raced closer to the door heading underneath the stage.
