All I Want For Christmas Is You

“What is going on in here?” I heard a voice ask. I didn’t recognize it until I looked around Harry’s hair and saw Luke from 5 Seconds of Summer staring blankly at us. 5 Seconds of Summer was One Direction’s opening band… we came in the audience right after their show, so we didn’t get to see them.
“It’s nothing!” I said with a big smile… even though this was the most embarrassing thing ever! And Harry didn’t even move!
“Why are Zayn’s clothes all over the floor and why is he on top of you?” Luke continued to ask as I saw Ashton come in right behind him. “WHAT?!” Ashton exclaimed with a laugh as he saw us. “I knew it! Harry!” Ashton yelled as he pushed Harry off of me. Harry groaned. “You alright?” Luke asked Harry as Harry sat up, rubbing his scalp. “What happened?” Harry asked. “You fell… on top of that girl,” Ashton said glancing at me, and I glared at him. I wasn’t just THAT girl.
“Oh, now I feel horrible. I need to go,” Harry said, getting up and trying to walk out the door. Lux and Val still were staring at Harry as he walked out the door. They hadn’t moved or spoken since we fell down. “HARRY!” Ashton yelled, running out of the dressing room to catch him.
I looked down at the ground and picked up a shirt next to me. It was a varsity jacket. It was defiantly one of Zayn’s old ones. I tossed it back down and sighed. “Why aren’t you chasing Harry?” Lux asked me. I looked at her and shrugged. “It doesn’t matter anyway,” I answered as Lux looked at me confused.
Luke walked back in the room. “Hey, Harry went with the other boys, and your friend is with them apparently. You want to come with us?” he asked smiling at me. I looked around me and then at Lux and Val. “What about the girls?” I asked him. “Oh they can stay with me,” I heard a lady say, who was outside of the door. It was Lou. “Okay, I trust you,” I said smiling. She giggled and shewd us out the door. “Go have fun. I’ll keep the girls busy. No worries. I think they are becoming great friends,” she said as she closed the door behind us. We didn’t move for a moment. “So… what is your name?” Luke asked. I smiled as I glanced at the ground for a moment and then back into his face. “Catherine, but I like to be called Cat,” I answered. “What are you doing backstage and why was Harry on top of you?” he asked, a bit more serious this time. I rolled my eyes at him… I hope he would let it go soon. “Me and Karla, my friend, got backstage passes. And Harry was talking to me, and he fell back onto the clothes rack and I tried to catch it and … yeah,” I said, not wanting to go into any further detail. Luke chuckled under his breath. “So who is that girl with Lux?” he asked. “Um… that’s my sister Valerie. She got a pass too,” I answered tilting my head to the side. Luke nodded and grabbed my hand. “I think they are waiting on us, let’s go,” he said, pulling me along with him.
Luke pulled me to a car and opened the back door for me. I held onto the top of the car door as I peeked in to see Louis, Liam, Harry, Karla, and Zayn in the backseats, and Niall was sitting in the front seat. “Luke, where’s Ashton and all them?” I asked, wondering where the rest of 5SOS were. Luke giggled, “They are already there,” he said as he closed the door behind me and flopped into the drivers seat. He turned the key to start the ignition and I squeezed into the seat, squished against the window, and… Harry.
“Hello again,” Harry said, obviously a bit embarrassed still from the incident in the dressing room. I smiled and nodded at him. “Hey Cat! Oh my gosh best day ever right?!” She asked/screamed at me. I laughed and agreed with her. “Did you leave Val with Lux and Lou?” she continued to ask. I nodded and then she tilted her head at me. “You’re not acting the same Cat. What’s up?” she said, trying to lean herself closer to me. I shrugged and chuckled as I innocently gazed back out of the window as the car started to roll.
There was an awkward pause and silence in our full-capacity car before Louis spoke up. “Harry hasn’t really spoken since he came in the car. Why are both of you acting so strange?” he asked, looking at Harry and me. He and I were staring out of the window trying to avoid the subject. “Oh goodness. Something must have happened,” Liam said as I heard Niall’s laughter follow. I felt my face turn hot again, but when I looked at Harry’s face, he was redder than me. His face looked like a tomato!
Louis then pulled Harry’s face to face him. “You’re blushing!” Louis said with a huge grin. Harry didn’t reply… he just turned back in my direction and looked at me as if I was going to help him explain. I felt my stomach toss and turn.
“Well, Harry was showing me your lovely clothes,” I said pointing to Zayn. Zayn looked at me confused. “And erm… um… I kind of fell,” Harry added not making eye contact in any of their eyes. “So, you fell, and you’re embarrassed?” Louis asked, wondering why. “He fell on top of me, where it… looked... kind of…. Bad… you know…” I said, and I felt my face turn as red as Harry’s. I heard everyone bust out laughing, even Luke laughed. “I walked in on them!” Luke added and the roar of laughter grew.
Harry and I just continued to stay silent and stared out of the window.

We arrived at a bar. Yes. A bar.
