Zayn Malik
As soon as we hit backstage, our stylists praised us and rushed us into the dressing room. Harry stayed behind with Lola.
I pulled my shirt off and glanced over at them while I changed. Harry pulled his hand out of hers and smiled at her. I hoped he wasn’t asking her to leave. She couldn’t leave yet.
Ugh. Harry was such a charmer. He could win her heart in a second. Just like he won the room. I didn’t have a chance.
He smiled and laughed and whispered to her.
And she nodded and blushed.
She hadn’t blushed when I’d sang to her. I suddenly wondered who her favorite was. Maybe it was Harry.
I clenched my jaw.
“Zayn.” Liam said, nudging my arm. “Hurry up and change.”
I unclenched my jaw and shook my head to remove all my stupid thoughts. What was I thinking, going for her? I had Perrie. And I wasn’t going to be a two-timing jerk.
Harry quickly made his way to us and started dressing in a haste. He was smiling strangely. He probably liked her.
I looked at her, then. I managed to catch her eye, but she looked away again. Just as she had onstage.
She left me feeling empty inside.
Lola Solemen
The way he looked at me... I was so irritated by it. Where had he seen me? Okay, the real question was whether or not he’d actually seen me. I doubted it.
"Excuse me," a woman said beside me.
I turned to face her, confused.
"Please have a seat while you wait for them."
She motioned for me to sit at a couch toward a corner of the room beside a long table filled with edible goods. I walked over to it and sat down.
I heard the boys' voices coming from the stage and realized that they had already gone back out. I hadn't even seen them leave backstage.
I sat there and waited, humming along to I Want while they sang their last song of the night.
Last song of the night.
This was it then. I'd be leaving in no less than five minutes.
I sighed.
"Thank you!"
"It was a pleasure playing for you!"
"Bye!"
I heard the boys and they came running backstage, laughing.
"You're still here," Liam said, smiling.
I nodded, not knowing what to say. I stood up.
Niall walked over to the table with Louis and they began stuffing everything they could find into their mouths.
I laughed.
Harry came up to me then, holding a One Direction T-shirt and a copy of their Up All Night CD.
"Today's your lucky day," Harry said smiling. "Liam. Go find a Sharpie."
Liam gave Harry an I-hate-you-for-making-me-do-this look before striding away.
I couldn't help but scan the perimeter for Zayn.
Where was he?
