“So where were you?” my brother questioned me, his eyebrow raised.

Quickly with a smirk I responded, “None of your business.”

He rolls his eyes at me and laughs, calling me a “Creep.”

Excitedly I look around and ask, “Where are we going first?”

My brother and Ronnie look around and together they say, “I’m hungry.”

I hadn’t thought about eating, but now that they bring it up; I realize I haven’t eaten since morning. It is already four in the afternoon. Time goes by quickly when your brain is overactive.

“Well it’s settled, let’s go eat.” My dad states.

We leave the room, and on the upper floor there is a food court. We order our food, and I wait at the table. I sit at the table and look around and once again I am saddened as I compare myself to the girls around me. “I do not belong” I think out loud, and everyone looks at me strangely. Suddenly I am not so hungry anymore.

I look up and see my brother and Ronnie gawking at the girls passing by, their eyes tracing their bodies up and down. I roll my eyes in annoyance.

My parents walk our way food in hand. Despite the comparisons I made only seconds ago, I do not resist the food. The aroma quickly pulls me away from any negative thought that resided in
my brain. Food is a weakness of mine.

We eat and I am ready to explore once again. I want to get out and go, the faster we go, the less time I will have to wait for tomorrow to come. The wait till the concert tomorrow night is killing me. Despite my behavior earlier in the day I am still looking forward to being in the same
room as One Direction.

My mind eases, knowing that there is no way Niall will remember my face, much less spot it out in a room filled with screaming people. I just want to have a good time and enjoy the music.

Music is my life, everyone else is so good at releasing the emotions that I keep bottled up in their music; listening to it makes me feel like I am not alone. I know someone else relates to me, even if I don’t know them personally, the music forges a bond between me and them. Even if I know that no one will love me with the intensity that One Direction sings with, if only for a
moment I listen to the words and love embraces me.

It is quite sad to think about actually. All I want is an intense love. Someone that I know will love me despite myself; but I guess somethings just don’t happen for everyone, being alone is what I am good at. I put myself through so much, seeking the approval of someone, who strung me along. He mentally and physically abused me, and I let it happen. I told myself I would never put myself through that again. All the confidence I once had in myself was gone, and I don’t know that I will ever really get it back. So for now I listen to the music and let love embrace me through the words they sing.

I look up from my thoughts and my family is staring at me I see the questioning in their eyes.

“Are you ready to go?” my mom asks me.

Determined not to raise anymore questions in their minds, quickly I say “Yes! let’s go.”

Excitement fills my eyes as we walk around outside, the lights are so beautiful at night. I ignore the crowd of people that surrounds us, I am able to escape my everyday life if only for a little while, I am going to enjoy it.

Nialls P.O.V.

It has been hours and I still can’t get her out of my mind, why would she just walk away. None of it makes any sense to me. I want to understand. I have never been so focused on getting to know the workings of any girls brain, but her actions confused me.

Most girls will scream and cry. Almost all of them take pictures or video, it has become normal. I was almost completely lost when she walked away and didn’t even ask me to take a picture with her, the rest of the guys were coming our way. “Why would she run?” I ask myself. Any girl would be thrilled.

The more I think about her, the more I want to understand her. There has to be some way for me to see her again. I only got her name, and already she has taken control of my thoughts; I haven’t noticed anyone else in all afternoon.

“Niall!” Zayn yells at me.

“What?” I respond. Not realizing that I was so lost in my own thoughts that I was abnormally quiet.

“What did that girl do to you?” Louis screams at me, in amusement.

I look at him pretending to be confused, I think to myself “What did she do to me?”

“I have to find her.” I think to myself out loud.

Everyone looks at me concern written on their faces.

Rachel’s P.O.V.

After five and half hours of walking around, and window shopping we finally arrive back to our room. Everyone looks tired, I for one am exhausted.

I plop myself on the bed closing my eyes, hoping to fall asleep quickly.

When I open my eyes again, I am met with soft blue eyes, and blond hair. “Niall?” I question, he only stares at me. No, this can’t be real. I try to speak but the words don’t come out.

I jump out of the bed, the room is dark. I try to relax. “It was only a dream.” I sigh under my breath. My body stays tense, something about those soft blue eyes makes me forget how to function.

I look at the clock, it reads 3:45am

I still have time to sleep, I lay back down.
