Chapter 2🖤

*Thanks for reading, hope you enjoy!*
*Sorry this chapter is a bit shorter, I promise they will get longer! Xx*

This week has dragged on. The new job has been more stressful than I imagined. But, I've had the concert to look forward to. And I'm not gonna lie, I'm so excited! Mostly to see my old friend Liam. But also to see all the boys perform and hang out with them afterwards. Chris is beyond excited. I think he might actually faint when we see them. Today at the hospital, I was telling an ill young girl who is a big fan of theirs that I know them. She didn't believe me until she saw the pictures. The look on her face when she realised she knew someone who knew One Direction was everything. That's the reason I do this job, to give sick young children a piece of happiness and hope.

It is currently Friday evening and me and Chris are planning out the day ahead of us and trying to decide what to wear. Eventually I chose out a khaki green bodysuit, a leather skirt, black tights and my heeled biker boots.
"Ugh that outfit will slay! I still don't know what I'm gonna wear."
"You'll look bomb in anything, trust me."
He then spent the next hour trying to decide on an outfit. Eventually he decided on a simple grey t-shirt, a navy blazer, ripped jeans and trainers. I knew we were gonna rock tomorrow night. As I was going to bed, the nerves and excitement crept up on me. It took me ages to get to sleep.

I awoke with a startle. Remembering my dream, I found myself shocked. Then I just laughed at myself. My dream was bizarre. In it, I attended the concert and hung out with the boys and instead of Chris being there with me, it was Kris Jenner. Things only got weirder from there, as the next thing I knew I was making out with Niall Horan! I told you it was crazy...

"Wake up Liv! Today's the day" Chris shouts, entering my room, as if we've been waiting for this our whole lives.
"Calm down!" I chuckle. Secretly though, I was just as excited as he was. The show starts at around 7, but Liam said we can get there any time after 4. So, we decide to head into town for lunch once we're both ready.

A little while later, after we had spent hours getting ready, we were sat in Nando's eating a chicken burger each, when I told Chris all about my dream. He almost choked on his corn on the cob as I was retelling it. "Someone looooves Niallllll!" Chris teases. In return, I simply stick my tongue out at him and we continued to mock each other for the whole meal. The food was delicious! Nando's is for sure my favourite restaurant. We did a little bit of shopping before heading to the arena. Now the butterflies really started to kick in, but I wasn't quite sure why. We're fast approaching the venue now and Chris is already starting to hyperventilate. Before I know it, he we are, standing outside the arena. And I'm about to see Liam again for the first time in like 3 years. I'm having to take deep breaths now to prevent myself from hyperventilating. I follow Liam's instructions on how to get to the backstage area and we are soon met with 2 very official looking security guards. I tell him my name, and luckily it is on the list. That would be awkward. A nice woman guides us to their 'green room', where they apparently hang out before shows. Now I am standing right in front of the door that has the word 'Band' written on it.
"You good hun?" Chris asks me.
I simply gulp in response.
