Okay you have all been waiting for this chapter for so long and its finally arrived so I’m not gonna bother talking right now, just get a move on and read the flippin chapter!
Obvious reasons as to why the song is on the side >>
Liv P.O.V
I could feel the heavy pulse of the bass vibrating through the floor. Each staccato beat making its self known in the room, signaling that this, was it. Within a few seconds I’d have to go and strut my stuff in front of a world wide streamed event, not to mention the thousands of audience members that were waiting on the other side of the curtain. The worst part? I have to kiss Harry flipping Styles on the lips. I know many people wouldn’t have a problem with this but for me and my past life this isn’t that great of a scenario. I mean why would I have to kiss him when he’s already got a girlfriend? Thats bound to create some controversy the next day and that’s going to reflect badly on me. Honestly how the hell does this benefit the show? And why me?!
Is it officially to late to back out of my job...?
“Queuing Liv in, 3, 2 ,1. Go, go, go!” A backstage crew member yelled, obviously trying to blast my eardrums.
Sucking in my stomach, tensing my body and straightening my back I put one foot in front of the other and take my position on the pitch black stage as I listen to all the other models lining up behind me.
The bright multicolored lights turn on as they highlight the runway part of the stage but still keep both me and the guys out of view. The crowd starts to scream in anticipation for the much awaited surprise performance and even though the boys lights were still dimmed I had no doubt that everyone knew who they were from the song intro.
Just as the song was about to start the light on the boys turns on making the screams go louder and crazier. Each of them dressed up in typical high tops and toms, vests and dress shirts and their styled or natural hair. They all stood in a single formation at the entrance of the runway where we all would soon be and I couldn’t take my eyes off them.
I wasn’t an avid fan. I hardly considered myself a directioner of sorts but it was just seeing Harry that stumped me, even though all I could see at the moment was his back... It was just this overwhelming sense of pride. Knowing that the guy I had held so dearly to my heart had really made something of his life. After all these years of avoidance I had found myself to be smiling at him. I’ve hardly forgiven him but I was just happy at the moment, happy for him and his life.
Tearing my gaze away from the boys and focusing back on the audience in front of me I realise the big bright spot light that shone on me. Giving a smile and looking down in the direction of the camera that was at my feet, I send it a cheeky little wink to the camera, sending the crowd crazy as it projected on the screen.
“Do you remember summer ’09?
Wanna go back there every night,
Just can’t lie, was the best time of my life,
Lying on the beach as the sun blew out,
Playing this guitar by the fire too loud,
Oh my, my, they could never shut us down”
Listening to Harrys melodic voice as he sings into the microphone and allows his voice to emit throughout the room as he sings along to the melody, a small smile to make its way on my face. It’s crazy to think that I never even knew that he could sing, just a pity I only found out when things had ended like they did... I quickly wipe away any expression I hold for Harry as I come back down to reality and start walking down the runway with all the models following behind me.
“I used to think that I was better alone,
Why did I ever wanaa let you go?
Under the moonlight as we stared at the sea,
The word you whispered I will always believe”
Seeming as this was the last walk of the show I decided to have a little fun with the crowd. I’ve loved doing this show and have had as much fun with it as I can but at the same time this is a lingerie show, we’re suppose to me cheeky. Keeping this in mind as well as the fact that cheeky me will have to kiss Harry I wink at a few of the men, blow lustful kisses and wave to them all until I come to my final position at the end of the runway.
All the other girls start to assemble at the end of the runway with me as we all say out final goodbyes to the crowd when I realise Miranda (Kerr) is standing right next to me. Having already gotten to know her a bit, I turn on my side as I grab both her hands and begin to dance to the chorus of the song with her.
“I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah,
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah,
I want you to hit the pedal, heavy metal, show me you care
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah”
The crowd goes wild for us when they see us dancing and as a result we both end up laughing at each other but continue. I mean it was typical. Sure there are women in the crowd but there are more than a fair share of men as well and I’m sure they’d be glad to see us shaking our stuff in lingerie.
“We were together summer ’09,
Wanna roll back like pressing rewind,
You were mine and we never said goodbye”
Knowing that the main chorus to the song was about to start after this next verse all us models looked at each other and send one another small knowing smiles. Quickly one by one we all start somewhat running our way to the main part of the stage where the boys were singing so that we could all dance a little and enjoy out finial moments on stage.
“I used to think that I was better alone (better alone),
Why did I ever wanna let you go? (let you go),
Under the moonlight as we stared at the sea (stared at the sea),
The words you whispered I will always believe”
Just as the chorus was about to start I sling my arm around Miranda and start kicking my legs as one would do in a ‘can can’. Looking at me and giving a little laugh she grabs another model and slings her arm over and does the same as me so that by the end of the song all of us were in a straight line doing the ‘can can’ to the beat of the song.
“I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to hit the pedal, heavy metal, show me you care
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
R-O-C-K me again,
R-O-C-K me again,
R-O-C-K me again, yeah
I want you to R-O-C-K me again,
R-O-C-K me again,
R-O-C-K me again, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to hit the pedal, heavy metal, show me you care
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to hit the pedal, heavy metal, show me you care
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah
I want you to hit the pedal, heavy metal, show me you care
I want you to rock me, rock me, rock me, yeah”
As soon as the song ended the audience immediately erupted in cheers and started to applaud as all the glitter cannons started to blow. Glitter and streamers soon covering all the audience members and the stage as all us models raise our hands up and do a final bow while everyone yells and cheers us on. The screen cameras flashing to the boys after we were done with our little performance, showing them doing they’re own little huddle thing as they jumped around in all the glitter.
After a few extra minutes of everyone celebrating all the other girls had made they’re way off stage except for me and the boys. It had obviously settled down but the room still held an uplifting atmosphere, everyone in the crowd wearing smiles in their seats, not to mention the giggling and gushing angles that were waiting in the wings.
Deciding that now was as good a moment as ever I turn in the direction all the boys, each one of them having slung arms around the other as they all stare directly towards me. To tell you the truth they’re stare was kind of intimidating having 5 boys starting at you, not to mention an ex. I mean I understand why they were staring, I was the only model out here. They probably thought I was in some sort of shock and forgot to walk off the stage but that was hardly the case...
Continuing with the said plan, I put my hand out and curl my finger in a gesture for them to follow me as I begin my decent down the runway. The crowd applauding both me and the boys as I bend down at the end of the runway and grab one of the bedazzled Victoria’s Secret microphones from a crew member.
With the boys in a line behind me and their arms still slung around one another I decide to join the end of the line who just so happened to be Harry himself. Slinging my arm around him I immediately feel his body tense as he hesitantly places his hand on my bare waist. Taking a deep breathe and bringing the mic to my mouth I begin.
“Thank you everyone!” I some what yell as the crowd all cheers in response.
“Tonight has been an absolute crazy night but I think I speak on behalf of all the angles here tonight when I say it was definitely a great night to remember. I feel completely honored to be standing here tonight before you all because never in my wildest dreams did I expect anything like this to happen in my life so I’d really like to take a moment to thank every single person that has gotten me here today. I was in complete shock when I was asked to be part of tonights show and it’s definitely going be something I’m gonna remember for a while!” I announce as I give them all a smile as they all clap in response.
“Any way. I would like you to give it up for One Direction!” I scream. The crowd erupting into deafening screams.
“I really hope you’ve all enjoyed your night. It was great having you perform with us tonight so thank you.” I say as I look directly into Harrys penetrating stare and make my move.
Harry’s P.O.V
She kissed me.
A/N I know, I’m mean. I’m leaving you all on a cliffhanger, I’m feeling a little evil. But to be completely honest with you guys I’m so excited for this book.
