*The next week*
*Tuesday morning*
Hannah, Ria and Rissy had been excited all week! It almost been a month since they last saw the lads and they’d been waiting for this day ever since!
“Now, don’t get too excited.” Hannah tried to warn Ria. “Remember, the lads are only here for one day so you’ll only get to see them for like 5 minutes.”<br>Ria just grinned.
It was only 4am but all 3 girls were wide awake; well, maybe only 2 of them because Rissys eyes kept closing every time she thought no one was looking!
Shane had warned them that although they weren’t getting there until 9 the queues would be pretty long and they’d have to get there at last 3 or 4 hours before if they wanted to be in with a chance of seeing the lads!
*An hour later*
Shane had been right! There must’ve been at least 800 people there already and they had to wait another 4 hours yet!
There wasn’t a queue; Hannah, Ria and Rissy just had to push forward and get as close to the barrier as possible!
*3 and a half hours later*
Everyone was tired by now and Hannah could have easily fallen asleep!
There were thousands of people by now and more still turning up!
The atmosphere was great! With only half an hour left (providing the lads were on time!) everyone was getting excited.
*Half an hour later*
3 brand new 4X4s with tinted windows slowly drove passed. Everyone knew that the lads were inside. The screaming increased and Hannah thought her eardrums were going to burst! She picked Rissy up and grabbed Rias hand.
The minute the rope was taken down and the door opened Hannah ran; along with thousands of other people!
She managed to get near the front of the queue. She estimated that there were about 400 people in front of them, so they’d defiantly get to see the lads!
Ria was crying.
“What’s wrong?1” Hannah asked alarmed.
“Nothing.” Ria replied. “I’m just so happy that we’re going to see them again!”<br>Hannah looking around; lots of people were crying and most people were screaming!
Just them the lads walked out and sat down at a long table.
“Bryan!” Rissy squealed.
The people around them laughed.
By now everyone was screaming!
“SHANE!” Ria screamed so loudly that she even surprised herself!
Shane looked around. Ria screamed again. He was still looking but he couldn’t see who it was screaming.
“SHANE!!!” Hannah shouted even louder than Ria!
He saw them then and waved.
Bryan saw the 3 girls too and blew a kiss at them.
Nicky looked up and he Hannah locked eyes. He eventually blushed and looked away.
*An hour and a half later*
The 3 girls were nearly at the front of the queue.
Hannah could feel butterflies in her tummy. The more she looked at Nicky, the more they increased!
Ria could feel the too, but hers were for Shane!
It was their turn to go up now.
“Hi!” Shane greeted them with a smile. “Long time no see! How are ya?!”<br> “Great!” Hannah smiled back.
“All the better for seeing me, I’m sure!” Shane laughed.
Ria nodded.
“I see you’re getting taller and prettier everyday!” Shane told Ria. She blushed.
“And look at you getting all grown up!” He said to Rissy. She giggled.
“Think you’d better sign this.” Hannah handed Shane the CD booklet. “Looks like we’re holding up the queue!”<br>Shane signed it and gave Hannah a piece of paper that he told her to read as soon as all the lads had signed their booklets.
Hannah, Ria and Rissy said ‘bye’ and moved along to Mark, then Kian, then Bryan and lastly Nicky.
“Hi.” He greeted them, his face glowing red.
“Hi.” Hannah said as thought she was perfectly happy talking to him. “How are you?”<br>She could feel the other lads eyes all on them.
“I’m fine thanks.” Nicky replied. “You?”<br> “I’m good thanks.” And with that they both said goodbye and the 3 girls walked away.
Hannah moved over to one side and read the note from Shane. It said:
‘We finish at 1pm. Go to the door saying staff and show them this note and you can stay in there and wait if you want and we’ll see you afterwards. It’s up to you. Love Shane.’<br>Hannah showed the note to Ria and they went to the ‘staff’ door and were let in.
