Running out of the audititorium, I looked frantically for Grace. I saw my best friend Charolette walking with Harry- wait, were they holding hands?! I ran up to them. "Guys, have you seen Grace?" I asked. Charolette shakes her head. "How was your audition?" Harry asks. "I made it!" I exclaimed, smiling. "Oh my gosh! Congratulations!" Charolette exclaims, hugging me. "Great job, Kate." Harry says. I smile and then see my sister walking with Liam. "Grace!" I yelled, running to her. "Whoa, what is it Kate?" she asks in shock. "I made it!" Grace smiles and starts screaming. "That's amazing!" I...

I nervously walked down the audititorium aisle and on to the stage. "Name?" called a voice. That must be the boys manager, I think to myself. "Kate Summers." I say, after clearing my throat. "And what are you going to be doing for us today, Miss Summers?" I look at the manager and say, "I'm going to play and sing an original song." He nodded and gestured for me to begin. Sitting on the stool that was on the stage, I adjusted the microphone on the stand. I took a deep breath and began to play. "You were always the guy, getting all the girls attention. Guess I was flying blind, aimlessly hoping...

The next morning, I woke up refreshed and with a smiled on my face. "Grace, get up!" I called loudly. "Are you excited for your audition today?" my sister yawns coming into my room. "A little bit. I'm nervous." Grace hugs me and says, "Don't be. You've got this. Charolette, Vanessa, Ashley, and I already got in for the tour... I'm sure you can too." I stood up. "Remind me again why you wanted me to do a solo audition?" Grace smiles. "Because you have a stronger voice on your own." I groan. "Come on, come on! Let's go!" I quickly through my dark hair in a loose ponytail and grab my bag. "You're...

I sit on the edge of my bed while Niall paces in front of me. "I don't understand, Kate." he starts. "Why are you acting so weird around me?" I look up at him helplessly. "It's not like you're weirded out by me being famous, right? So I don't understand what the deal is. It's like everytime I'm around, you go into this shell and don't let anyone in." Niall continues, running his hands through his blonde hair. "I know who you really are, but you don;t show it! You act shy all the time, you act like you've been hurt really badly... if you've been hurt Kate, I want to know! I want to know so I...

"So tell me what I've missed since you hit stardom." I say, glancing at Niall. "Not too much, really." he says. "Has there been anyone?" I question. "It's complicated right now." Niall answers hesitantly. "Oh." I say, looking down. He clears his throat. "What about you, Kate?" I shake my head. "No one." Niall stops me. "Oh come on, I know there has been at least one lad." I look at him bitterly. "I said no one, Niall. No one means no one." I turned quickly and went into the student garden. "Kate..." Niall started softly, following me into the garden. "Stop." I said quietly. I did not need another...

My schedule couldn't get any better. My first class was music theory, then I had free period, corrale, lunch, science, math, and history. My homeroom teacher was Mr. Midgely, and he was known around school as one of the meanest teachers. "Good morning, everyone." Mr. Midgely greeted. I slipped into my seat. "I'm very proud to introduce to you all Mr. Harry Styles." I looked up in shock. I didn't know that the guys were getting divided into homerooms. All the girls started whispering and playing with their hair. Harry offered his cheeky smile to everyone and found his seat next to Charolette....

"Kate Summers." I told the lady at the registration booth. "Welcome back, Miss Summers." she said warmly. "Thank you, Ms. Appledale." I took the locker combination sheet she had handed me and began to look for it. "Locker 16B." I read aloud. This was great. All the B-section lockers were right near the music wing. I looked around for my sister, but she had already vanished with Ashley. Pulling out my phone, I see she has texted me several times since we got off the bus. All the texts are teasing me about Niall. I don't like Niall, I think to myself. He hasn't spoken to me since he got famous,...

*A WARM SHOUT OUT TO THOSE WHO HELPED as I know I didn't fit in all your stuff in cuz i was trying to get as many people as possible, AND THOSE THAT DIDN'T MAKE IT IN:TARDIS-Granger

The screaming crowds. The hours spent online, spreading pictures and information. All these people coming together. Let me introduce you to a fandom.
Fandom is a term that sounds like what is is—it refers to all the combined fans of something. It can be a sport, hobby, or book. It can be very specific, down to one show; or wide, encompassing all shows in a genre. The fans are closely connected by shared interest....
