Whole New World - ON HOLD
Just Another Fan
The host and judges were finally introduced and they ventured on stage as we screamed along with the rest of the crowd. The host got talking about the nights events when he was about to announce the special celebrity guest. K looked at me exitedly because this year they have had the best celebrity guests ever. The first week was last years winner, the week after that was Alicia Keys and last week was Bruno Mars so we were extremly exited for the news that was about to fill our ears.
"And tonight we have an exeptionally special guest!" The host explained, his exitement shining through evedantly. "They have traveled around the world, stealing hearts across the globe. They have performed many times on The X Factor stage, here from the UK, PLEASE WELCOME ONE DIRECTION!"
I froze, my brain registering the news I had just been bessed with. I was forced to face Kristy who's screaming and crying confirmed the information. I faced the stage as five gods walked on stage. I almost fainted at the sight. I embraced my best friend in a hug and jumped up and down squealing in exitement as the five boys I never thought I would be within 20 miles of stood infront of me.
They took their places, sitting on stools infront of microphone stands and the lights dimmed. The sound of familiar guitar picking filled the room and Zayn started off Little Things. Tears streamed down my face as we swayed to the music and sang along. After the song finished they walked forward, touching fan's hands that right next to us. They thanked the host and the audience before exiting the stage. Then I remembered something from before that I wa too exited to remember until now.
"Oh my god! K! K! K!" I repeted while re-thinking everything that was going on in my head. "We have V.I.P passes K! WE GET TO MEET ONE FUCKING DIRECTION IN AN HOUR K WE GET TO FUCKING MEET THEM!" I shouted at the top of my lungs, not caring if I deafened anyone in the precess. A wave of shock quickly passed over her features before exitement took over and we squealed like new born puppies, hugging and crying before the restof the show continued but I was too damn exited to care about what was going on infront of me.

The show came to a close as my least favorite contestant got sent home and people started filing out of the room, only leaving about 50 people left in the room with V.I.P passes hanging around their necks. Everyone that was left in theroom gathered around the stage as the top 8 contestants came out and jumped into the swarm of people, snapping pictures and signing things left right and centre. We were so caught up in trying to meet llof the acts that I almost missed 5 boys chatting quietly amongst themselves in the corner of the room.
"K" I tapped my best friends shoulder and slyly pointed to the 5 angels in the room. she gasped and we quietly made our way over to them, hoping no one noticed our departure so we could get as much alone time with the boys as possible. We were nearing the spot where the familiar boys stood, Harry, Zayn and Liam's tall frames faced away from us, blocking Louis and Niall's chance of seeing us coming. I timidly tapped Harry on the shoulder and he spun around, jumping slightly.
"Shit" he cussed under his breath. I smiled shyly, looking at the ground to conceal my reddened face. "Hello love" he smiled warmly. "Would you like me to sign that for you?" He asked noting the piece of paper and sharpie I held in my hand. I was too busy watching Harry and every move he made to notice Kristy acting exactly the same with Niall.
We both talked and got pictures with the boys, getting them to sign pages in our note pads when I heard a scream from the other side of the room. I looked up so see about 30 girls running inn a stampeed towards us. Harry pushed me and Kristy behind them and into a corner and told us to wait there before returning to his prior position and proceeded to sign things and take pictures with people.
K and I crouched in our spot, hiding from view of others.At first we were to stunned to talk but then we both started laughing and crying, the events that had happened in the past 2 hours were too overwhelming to handle without tears. After 20 minutes of crying and Talking in the corner, Louis came over and reassured us that it was safe to come out.
Harry was the last of the boys to come over after taking one more picture with a fan and immediatly noticed our puffy eyes and red cheeks from crying. "What happened? Are you alright?" He questioned, genuine worry crossing his angel-like face. "We are just so overwhelmed that we actually are standing here talking to One Direction!" Kristy gushed. She was definatly the louder, more confident one of the pair. You can't blame her though, with her looks anyone would be confident!
After a few minutes of awkward small talk someone came over and told the boys they were leaving in five. My mood immediatly dimmed and Harry, being surprisingly observant, noticed my change in mood. "What's wrong love, aren't you happy you got to meet us?" He asked with a tinge of sarcasm in his voice, a dimpled smirk washing ove his face.
"Yes of course I'm happy, you guys are my idols!" I stated.
"Then why arent you smiling?" Louis asked joining the conversation.
I recieved a confused look from the six people standing around me.
"I will remember this for the rest of my life, but you wont I will always just be another lucky fan that got to meet you" I sniffed and with that comment I recieved sympathetic looks before being squashed in a Horan hug that turned into a group hug with a crying Krisy and I in the middle.
I could have sworn I heard the words "I will always remember" but it was probably just my imagination. I scrawled me and Kristy's numbers on a piece of paper and tore it out of my notepad, passing it to Harry. I knew he wouldn't call but it can't hurt to try, right?
The boys left and Kristy and I ventured outside in a daze, finding my dads car and clambering inside. my night had been so perfect, almost too perfect to be true.
