Chapter 49 (Hannah’s P.O.V.)

This sucked. I couldn’t believe that I was just sitting alone in my apartment today. It’s my freaking birthday for crying out loud. I mean, it’s not every day you turn twenty. And I couldn’t believe that everyone had forgot.

“You just have to deal with it, Hannah.” I mumbled to myself as I sank further into my couch.
I couldn’t blame the boys for forgetting, I hadn’t known them that long and they had a show tonight. But how could Tracey and Sabrina forget, I hadn’t even gotten a happy birthday tweet from Alice and it was nearly seven o’clock at night.

That’s when I heard a knock on my door. I forced myself to my feet and trudged to the door. I opened to be greeted by Alice’s smiling face.

“Alice?” I looked at her confused. She looked me over for a moment before grabbing my hand and dragging out of my apartment.

“You’ll do.” She said as she locked the door to my apartment and then began dragging me down the hall.

“What’s going on?” I asked as she pulled me into the parking lot. I looked to see Tracey’s car. Sabrina was in the driver’s seat and Tracey was behind her. Alice threw me into the back with Tracey, before hoping in the front.

“What is this?” I yelped as a blindfold covered my eyes. I reached my hands up to pull it away, but was smacked.

“Leave it on.” I heard Tracey say. “We don’t want to ruin the surprise.”

“What surprise?”

I was so confused. I really wished I knew where they were taking me, because I really hated this blindfold.

“Just be patient.” Sabrina said. I could tell by the sound of her voice that she was smiling.

I growled, crossing my arms over my chest and leaning back in my seat. There really wasn’t much I do about this, but go along with it.

It took about twenty antagonizing minutes later before Alice exclaimed, “We’re here.”

I reached up to pull the blindfold off, but my hand was smacked again.

“Not yet.” Tracey said. I felt someone grab my wrist and pull me to my feet.

We began walking toward loud screaming. I was not liking the sound of this.

“Guys,” I asked, “What is going on?”

They didn’t answer me, they just kept crowding me toward the loud noises. Pretty soon, it was so loud that I couldn’t even hear myself think. We walked for what seemed like forever before we stopped. I could tell that there were a lot of people around and it was making me really uneasy with this blindfold on.

“Hello, everybody.” I heard a British accent say. He was answered by a loud scream. I began to lift my blindfold up and looked around. I was standing in front of a massive crowd that was staring up at a stage.

“I’m Zayn.”

“I’m Louis.”

“I’m Harry.”

“I’m Liam.”

“I’m Niall.”

“And we’re One Direction.” They all finished together.

The crowd went nuts. I almost covered my ears, I was definitely going to be deaf after this.

“Now today is a special day for someone special to us,” Liam said as he walked forward. I wasn’t even sure if anyone could hear him over the screaming. “It is someone’s birthday.”

I felt my face redden as he looked down at me.

“And we would like to have your help to wish her a happy birthday. What you all say? Will you help us wish Hannah a happy birthday?”

The crowd began to go crazy. I looked over at the girls. They were all smiling. I was so going to kill all of them for this later.

“Happy birthday to you.” rang through the stadium. “Happy birthday to you. Happy birthday dear Hannah.”

Okay, I was going to die. I wished that I could turn invisible right now. This had to be the most embarrassing moment of my life. I looked over and made eye contact with Tracey.

She mouthed to me, “You’re welcome.”

I responded by mouthing, “I hate you.”

She just continued to smile as the singing stopped. The boys thanked everyone for their help before they started into their scheduled songs. I really enjoyed the concert after that. I hated it admit it, but this was probably one of my best birthdays ever.

“Thank you.” Niall shouted before Louis yelled, “Good night.”

And then the guys were gone, but the crowd was still going crazy. I felt someone grab my wrist again and begin pulling me. I was really getting sick of being drug everywhere. I soon didn’t care as I saw that Sabrina was dragging me toward a door that read backstage. As soon as we were through the door, I was greeted by a chorus of happy birthdays as each of the boy gave me a hug. Liam was the last one that hugged me, so I stood by him.

“Now for the fun,” Tracey said as she held up a pair of white converse. I raised an eyebrow at her. She shrugged, “What better to do than give you a chance for revenge?” She reached out her shoes toward me along with her signature green Sharpie.

I smiled as I took them from her. She knew that I wouldn’t ruin her shoes. I mean, it was my brilliant idea to decorate them. I thought for a moment, “I’m not sure.”

“Oooo!” Louis started jumping up and down, “I got something.”

Before I could stop him, he had taken the shoes from my hands and was scribbling away. I shook my head at how happy he was. Slowly, the shoes made their way around the group and back to Tracey. She was smiling.

“Thanks guys.” She looked them over, “And they even left you a spot Hannah.”

“I would hope,” I said, “It is my birthday.”

We all headed to a lounge area and began to talk. I looked and checked the time.

“Excuse me,” I said as I stood from the couch I was sharing with Liam.

“Where are you going?” he raised an eyebrow at me.

I turned back to him, “I wanted to call my parents before it got too late.”

He nodded his head and I left the room. My eyes landed on an exit sign, and I decided to make my call outside. I could hear Liam telling everyone what I was doing as I went outside.
It was a nice night outside and I was glad I decided to come out here. I reached for my pocket to get my phone but froze.

“I found you.”

I knew that voice and who it belonged to even before I turned around.

“You ruined me.” he said.

I stared in fear at the man that had almost raped me a few months before. He was glaring at me as he stepped toward me.

“You were the one that got away.” He stepped forward again. I stepped away, feeling my back hit a wall. I had one chance. I pulled my phone up and began to dial someone, anyone. He ran up and shoved my arm up against the wall hard. He stared into my eyes as he spoke.

“I have to make you pay.” He pulled a gun out of his waistband and placed it to my neck. My eyes widened. I was going to die.
