Nightmare

Prologue

Niall P.O.V

"You're on in five..."

Boom! My heart beat faster as the excitement of the screaming fans pounded in my ears.

"Four!"

I looked around and found Zayn looking at himself in his mini mirror and let out a small chuckle as he turned to me and furrowed his eyebrows, probably confused to as why I was laughing.

"Three!"

My hands and palms became sweaty and I played around with my microphone, trying to calm myself down.

"Two!"

The thought of the huge crowd screaming and watching our movement made me panic a little.

What if I did something wrong or forgot the lyrics? What if I ended up making a mistake and singing the wrong song or messing up the lyrics or even worse, played other chords... Everybody would laugh at me and turn their attention to me.... All the stares and laughter would be directed towards me.

"One!"

Zayn snapped his fingers and I looked at him.

"Babe. It's gonna be okay. Don't worry. You won't mess up. I believe in you. We do this all the time anyway and you always make it. Just remember to loosen up and have fun. If you have fun, the fans have fun. Okay babe? And if something goes wrong, I'll be by your side to help you babe. Okay?" He said comfortingly as he smiled lovingly and beautifully.

Before I could respond, the screams got louder and Harry sang the first verses of best song ever.

I took small and short deep breaths while looking out to the huge crowd that were screaming and crying, some almost about to pass out and others already were.

I really hope I didn't mess this up. It was our first concert of our where we are tour and I wanted everything to go smoothingly and perfect.

I was so into my thoughts and concentrated that I didn't realize the spotlight shone on me and the crowd was waiting for the rest of the song to be sung but stopped screaming and looked at me confused.

I could hear the loud music in the background and the shouts of my band mates, telling me to sing the rest of the song and go on but I couldn't. I was frozen to the spot. All those people, the nervousness.... It was too much.

"Niall baby, I'm right here." Zayn's soothing voice echoed in my head and I looked back to see him smiling and resting his head on my shoulder. "Now sing as if you were singing to me. Only me." He instructed and I nodded, my heart beat slowing down.

"I said can I take you home with me. She said never in your wildest dreams." I sang loudly and zayn's eyes lit up like the beautiful Christmas lights that I always saw throughout December.

I smiled as he pecked my cheek and whispered in my ear.

"Good Boy, Nialler baby. Now just relax. I'm here, remember."

I brightly smiled and continued singing while Louis danced around and Harry rolled his eyes, singing but also holding Back the laughter that quietly escaped his lips.

______________________________

Wow. We had already made it through six songs but I was already so exhausted and sweaty to the point where I needed to take a long and refreshing shower.

Zayn took a sip from his water bottle while watching me and my cheeks slightly reddened after he winked at me. I just hope nobody had noticed.

Yes. Zayn and me were together but nobody knew. Not even management. Only the boys knew and we all planned on keeping it a secret because zayn and I were scared of the reactions of not only Simon and our whole team but also our families and fans.
