The concert soon was coming to a close and the last song they were playing was my favorite of all time. It was the song if asked, I would call my theme song. But this being the only rebellious thing I did, only made this song that much more special in this moment. I had just done a lot, all in one night, and the fact this song was playing now, was like I was feeling my confidence grow inside me as well.
"Run wild and never look back!" They sang. Gabby and I really got into this song. We started jumping around like wild women. It was the night of a life time. The music playing, the voices singing, the confetti, and pyro, it was all so epic for lack of a better word. Gabby tried to sing along making me laugh since she didn't know the words. I sang along at the top of my lungs while my arms stayed above my head letting the music take over my heart and soul.
"Tonight is what we make it, make it." James sang close to our side of the stage as Kendall walked over around him and to me. He was crouching again as I stared at him. He offered his hand once more as he made eye contact with me as he sang the next line. He winked at me and held my hand.
"Fighting the fire deep inside ya! Make your move tonight, tonight! Run wild, and never look back, never look back. The night is waiting. Stand up and don't shut up. The world is for the taking!" He sang loudly. I shrieked. I then suddenly felt the urge. The sanity inside me losing to the hype this man created unintentionally for me. Since he was bent down singing directly to me, I took my chance believing I was making my move tonight in a way. So I kissed him. I worked up the courage and leaned on the stage, his torso hunched over the side to hold my hand as I tugged gently on his arm as he leaned closer almost instantly, and I pulled his lips to mine with a swift hand to the nape of his neck. I let go as soon as he pulled away from me and he looked like he was in utter and complete shock, meanwhile I fighting what I had just felt. I had felt a sweet burning sensation running through my lips as I released all holding of him and reached my fingertips to my lips instinctively as our eyes stayed glued on one another as I lowered off the tip of my toes and back level on the ground.
He then realized I had no hold on him, stood, and joined in on the dance moves the others were doing. Gabby screamed in astonishment at what I had just done as others around us stared at me like I was crazy, security had eyeballed me and started towards me until Kendall shook his head to them sending them to ease up and just stand their post. Kendall would sneak a glance at me every so often, but he looked confused rather than intrigued in what had just happened.
I honestly had no care in the world at this point and it felt good. I wasn't worried about what people thought of me and I was enjoying myself. If you had told me from three days ago that I'd be sneaking into concerts and going backstage while also becoming the Worldwide girl for Kendall and getting my first real kiss from him, I would've asked what drugs you were on. I was high on life and I didn't want to come down.
Eventually the show quieted and we had to leave. The guys said goodnight, but not before Kendall looked at me curiously again. Usually I would've been able to read him like a book in which emotions he was feeling as I was that tuned to him, but in this moment, I was lost and looking for some sign he didn't hate me for what I had just did. Guilt crept over me slightly as I shrugged it off. I wouldn't see him again.
"Was that your first kiss?" Gabby asked on the way home in traffic from everyone leaving the concert. I smiled staring forward in the light of her radio and dash of her car. "Is that crazy or what?" She asked happy for me as she touched my knee and squealed. "Girls would kill to be you right now." She said shaking her head in bewilderment. I giggled looking to her then.
"I would kill to be me in that moment again." I said honestly before looking out the side window. "Thank you again Gabby." I smiled at her as she drove a few moments later. She smiled back as she kept her eyes on the road.
"This was a real bonding experience for us. I'm happy now our friendship has year long experiences from one night. We watched a concert together, we snuck into something, we met famous people, we got our boy fix," she winked at me as I covered my face with my hands and giggled. "And I even helped you accomplish something rebellious. Most friends wait a lifetime for something like this." She said looking out the windshield. I laughed, we were going to be pretty great friends.
And we were best friends from that day forward. I actually called her my best friend and vice versa. We just got along so well together. We would hang out, eat, go shop, and even she'd pass out on my couch some nights. We were just as close as any two people could be in a matter of two weeks. Within those two weeks, she had me make a twitter and Instagram. I wasn't sure if it was my thing, but I landed on the internet and had no intention of getting off.
But one morning, Gabby had spent the night and was in the living room while I was in my own bed. She was screaming. I got out of bed in a frenzy and ran into the living room expecting the worst, but she was happily running in place in front of the couch. Her eyes squeezed shut as she was screaming in what looked like excitement. I furrowed my brow and heaved a sigh.
"What the hell, Gabby?" I asked leaning against the couch with my hands in my hair, slowing my heart rate. She giggled and jumped onto the couch. I lifted my head to see her phone shoved in my face. My eyes couldn't focus that close, so I pulled away. Her phone was on my twitter profile.
"Gabby, what about my Twitter?" I asked not quite understanding. She shrieked and smiled huge. She then zoomed in and then I read what it said under the follow button. 'Kendall Schmidt Follows'. I stood in a daze for a second and then looked at Gabby whose excitement was radiating off her. I then screamed myself and started to jump in place excitedly.
"He freaking follows you, Sophia!" She said dramatically while looking like she was groping my couch on the back cushions. I laughed and felt my heart swell. I then started to think out loud.
"How did he find me? I didn't even tweet him from my account before. I just followed him." I said logically. She scoffed and waved my comment away.
"Who cares, the guy you kissed at HIS concert followed YOU!" She said giddy and flopping onto the couch. "He only follows like a thousand some people." She said cheekily looking up at me from where she was lying. I giggled, and walked back to my room where my phone was on Do Not Disturb from last night. I hit the home button, it was seven in the morning, and I had notifications out the wazoo.
One of which was telling me Kendall was following me and that I had a Direct Message from him as well. My heart seemed to skip a beat just at the thought of his lips. I clicked on it and it seemed to take years to load when really it was seconds. Kendall had sent a pretty long message. It read:.....
