chapter three
"God gracious, Jessica! Can you believe we just talk to 'em just now? Oh my god! Someone pinch me!" I exclaimed as we waited at Tower Records for Westlife to appear again. "Yeah, and Kian is so sweet!" "So is Nicky!" " Yar, Yar, you and your beloved Nicky, Nicky Byrne, boyfriend of the Irish Prime Minister's daughter, Georgina..." "Hey! Will you stop that?" I exclaimed. I turned away from Jessica. Not wanting her to see the tears that were gathering in my eyes. "Look! I'm sorry alright." "It's ok." I said, not really meaning it though.
Neither of us spoke after that until Westlife finally came on and we were screaming with the other fans there. I've forgotten about what Jessica had said just now and she made sure never to mention it in front of me again. Well, at least for the rest of the day.
The lads came on and shouted "HELLO SINGAPORE!" which left the fans screaming over them. They started off with Flying Without Wings before going on to the heart warming If I Let You Go. We sang along to them. Before their third song, the lads tried to excite the crowd. As Kian and Bryan cheekily asked "Any single ladies out there who are feeling lonely tonight?" they fooled around for a while with the crowd. "The next song we are gonna sing is our very first single, 'Swear It Again', this song is going out to all of you out there especially Yolanda and Jessica who were with us at the airport this morning." Bryan said as his blue eyes search the room and found us. "Thank you for your support and you are really great friends!" I could almost feel my heart leaping out. I can't believe it! They still remember us! I look dreamingly at Nicky as they sing Swear It Again.
When they finally finish the song. They leapt of the stage and in a flash, gone. The fans were left there, stunned, and stamping their feet, asking for more. Jessica and I wasted no time. We dashed out of the room and out to the car park. We managed to catch a glimpse of the lads going up the bus. Shane saw us and waved to us while he was boarding the bus. We waved and were about to run to them while the security guards stopped us. "We are staying at Raffles Hotel, come find us there!" Kian shouted before the bus leave. We grabbed a cab and rushed to the hotel.
"Let's go to the information counter and ask for their room number." Jessica suggested after we had reached the hotel. "Pssst! Yolanda, Jessica, over here!" We turned and saw the lads standing behind a pillar. "Hey! What are you doing here?" I asked. "Waiting for you!" The lads said before exploding into giggles.
We were led into the Bryan and Kian's room. It was very messy...typical. We chatted a while in the room as Jessica and I asked for their autographs and took some pictures with them. I just can't believe our luck! We soon started a 'pillow fight'. Bryan and Kian were busy throwing pillows at each other. Jessica and I began to take sides in the fight. Jessica, Kian and Shane began throwing pillows at Bryan Nicky Mark and me. I was beaten 'severely'. Not that I am complaining though.
