Is there any other Direction?

the Benefits of Busking

"Wow Maddie, you're really good at that," said Sasha after we had performed our first song. We had recieved about $8 so far and it was very exciting perfomng in front of people, I should do it more often. With Sasha's keyboard, my guitar and our voices, we sounded really good, and our voices melded together in perfect harmony.

We got our instruments ready and started singing another song, "moments" by One Direction. When I got to Niall's part a guy in a hoodie and sunglasses came up, he looked oddly familiar. He had light brown styled hair, he was medium hight and tanned and looked about nineteen. We kept singing and he just stood there until we finished the song.

He came up to us and said, "you guys are really good singers, have you ever thought about it as a career?" We looked at each other a bit worriedly, we knew about stranger danger. I think he saw our look for he laughed and said, "I'm not going to hurt you, don't worry. So, I noticed that you were singing Moments. Fans of One Direction are you?"

"Sasha said straight away, OMG yes, I havn't been able to get to one of their concerts though. I like how Louis is with Eleanor and Liam is with Danielle, I mean, just because their famous doesn't meant that they can't have a proper relationship and It's absolutely horrible, the hate that some fans give, I mean like if they were real fans they would be encouraging them. and I am in OMG so in love with Harry Styles despite some of the things he does. And i heard that Zayn is with Perrie from Little Mix OMG i love that band too and I think it's funny how Niall loves eating food and Harry is kind of disturbing, I mean aren't they supposed to be role models and Harry's going around doing all sorts of disturbing things that I'm not going to mention I mean for heavens sake, like I dont want to be hearing about that kind of stuff and-"

"Sasha," I said, "Shut up."

She looked at me sheepishly and I said to the guy, "sorry about that.. she is a very passionate person."

He chuckled and said, "I noticed. So to sum what she said up, she dislikes fans hate, she likes how some of them are in relationships, she's in love with Harry but still thinks he's disturbing, she likes how Niall likes eating food and she heard that Zayn is with Perrie but doesn't know if it's true?"

I looked at him in awe, "How did you just do that? I had no idea of what she was on about."

"Um, hello, i'm still here"..., Sasha said.

"Oh yeah, didn't notice," I said under my breath.

"Sorry, what was that?" was the reply.

"Um, nothing?"

The guy started to laugh at our conversation and we realised that he was still there.

We stared at him until he stopped laughing and he said, "You know, I could definitely get you tickets to their London performance on Thursday if you come back to this spot tomorrow. The only condition is you have to meet my friends, and sing a song for us."

Sasha and I looked at each other excitedly when I thought, what if he was just tricking us so he and his friends can kidnap us or something. I think Sasha realised what I was thinking and her face mirrored mine. As well as Sasha noticing, so did the guy and he laughed again, "Don't worry, i'm not going to harm you or anything, I ust think that they might enjoy listening to you sing."

I looked at Sasha and sighed, "Ok, but if you try anything I have to warn you, i'm a black belt in karate. Also, what's your name?"

When I said I was a black belt he looked worried for a sec but now he looked completely calm and said, "Li- Uh James, the names James. So, will you come tomorrow?"

"Maddie already told you, we are coming, just make sure you have the tickets."

I felt like some sort of dealer the way she said it, it was completely intimidating and I think he looked a bit taken aback as well as he replied, "Uh yeah, don't worry I'll have them. But i think I have something better than tickets."

He mumbled the last bit so I didn't quite catch it, I don't think he meant us to notice and by the looks of it Sasha didn't. "Um so, see you tomorrow then girls?'

"Yeah."

"Bye"

"Seeyah"

"Bye."

After he walked away I looked at Sasha, the realisation just sunk in. "OMG WE'RE GETTING TICKETS TO ONE DIRECTION!" we screamed at the same time. I looked down to my guitar, I only just noticing that was still holding it.

"Lets pack up," I said, "I think we've had enough excitement for one day."

I looked down to see how much money we had earnt and I just realised that he had chucked in an extra $50. Wow, we now had $63!

We grabbed our stuff and ran over to McDonalds, eager to eat.
