After what felt like an eternity of waiting, the lights in the arena suddenly went dim. A collective gasp escaped from the crowd as the stage filled with a wave of smoke. The anticipation was palpable as the music started playing, and the spotlight slowly illuminated the stage.
There they were. One Direction, all five members, now on stage and ready to perform.
As the first chords of "What Makes You Beautiful" filled the air, Y/n felt her heart skip a beat. She had waited so long for this moment, and now it was actually happening. She looked up at the stage and saw Zayn, Liam, Niall, Harry, and Louis all in their element. - Y/n's smile grew wider, and her excitement escalated tenfold. She couldn't believe she was finally witnessing One Direction perform live.
Alissa was beside herself with excitement, screaming at the top of her lungs. "LIAM! OH MY GOD, LIAM!"
Y/n couldn't help but laugh at her friend's unabashed display of devotion. Alissa was completely starstruck, her eyes glued to the stage as Liam sang. - Alissa's screams were almost ear-piercing, but she didn't care. All her attention was on Liam, as he moved around the stage singing "What Makes You Beautiful."
She bounced up and down, arms in the air, completely engulfed in the thrill of the moment. She'd idolized Liam for years and now, seeing him perform live, her excitement was at its peak.
Y/n glanced at her friend, amused by her frenzied energy. Alissa's passion for Liam was undeniable, and Y/n couldn't help but chuckle at it all.
While Alissa was fixated on Liam, Y/n's gaze drifted towards Zayn. She was drawn to him, his charismatic aura and stunning good looks.
As Zayn started singing, Y/n was captivated. She couldn't tear her eyes away from him. His voice was melodious, and he had an effortless charm about him on stage.
Y/n felt her heart fluttering at the sight of him, the feeling strengthening as he sang.
As Zayn continued to sing, he glanced out into the crowd, and his gaze met Y/n's. A smirk tugged at his lips as he winked at her, causing her heart to skip a beat.
Y/n's scream was a mix of surprise and joy. She turned to Alissa and started shrieking excitedly, "Did you see that?! Did you see that?!" - Alissa's eyes widened as she witnessed the wink. "Yes! Yes, I saw it! Oh my God, Zayn just winked at you!"
Y/n could barely contain her excitement. She felt butterflies in her stomach and her cheeks flushed. She looked back up at Zayn, who carried on singing, a hint of a smirk still on his face.
As the concert progressed, Zayn continued to steal glances at Y/n, each one sending a shiver down her spine. Alissa, in the meantime, was beside herself, screaming and cheering whenever Zayn looked in Y/n's direction.
Y/n couldn't believe her luck, the boy she had idolized and fantasized about was winking at her from the stage. - Liam's captivating smile now turned in Alissa's direction, and she nearly went berserk. Her eyes widened, and she let out a high-pitched scream.
"OH MY GOD! HE SMILED AT ME!" Alissa clutched at Y/n's arm, practically shaking with anticipation. - Y/n couldn't help but laugh at her friend's reaction. Alissa was practically melting, a mix of surprise and joy on her face.
"He totally smiled at you," Y/n teased. "You're about to pass out from excitement right now, aren't you?"
Alissa, despite Liam's smile, seized the moment to tease Y/n.
"Hey, don't think I didn't notice how Zayn was totally checking you out," she yelled over the music, a sly grin on her face. "You're practically swooning!"
