The week was nearly over and it went quick, I got out of hospital Tuesday morning and bill had been looking after me every evening since- it was nice having him around, although I still felt bad because I was only really ill for about 3 days and didn't want him to worry and stress about me but nonetheless he insisted.

It was Saturday and as I was walking back from the store I felt my phone ring in my pocket-it was bill
"hey, what's up?" I asked
"hey um, do you think you could come to see the show tonight? Everyone here misses you and wants to see you tonight" he asked sweetly
"um, sure I'll be there, did lorne say it was ok?" I didn't want to be a distraction
"he was asking about you yesterday and today so I think he would love to see his new favourite actor" I could feel the grin on bill's face
"well, I do miss that fine piece of man so maybe I'll wear something sexy" I teased him
"oh I see how it is" I could tell he was smiling
"I'll see you tonight then" I said
"see ya sugar" he said-most likely still grinning
"bye" i ended the call smiling, I went from scoffing at the name 'sugar' but its actually starting to grow on me.

I walked home swiftly because I was conscience of the time, it was 5 which meant I only had about 3 hours to get ready and get there, it doesn't sound like a short amount of time but I take forever to get ready.

I put on some black velvet trousers and a red blouse , I looked pretty hot for once- this might help bill with his 'nerves' before the show, the thought of him being distracted by me made me laugh a little. Because I lived relatively near the studio I decided to walk, surprisingly I was on time for once so I didn't need to rush anywhere. After about 10 minutes of walking I finally got to the studio and it was chaos, I asked a girl who was waiting in line who was on this week and she looked at me confused
"um, Harry fucking styles!" she raised her eyebrows at me like it was obvious
"thank you" I walked away, trying to find the back entrance so I wouldn't get beaten up by a bunch of 21 year olds. I slowly realised that I'm going to meet Harry styles tonight-holy shit. I remember being a one direction fan when I was younger and I still liked Harry now, this is why I love my job.

I found the back exit and showed the security guard my ID and she let me in, I made my way into the building and everyone was rushing and talking, I forgot how hectic Saturday night was. Amidst all the action I went towards the dressing rooms the find everyone talking as a group, lorne was giving his usual pep talk on how the night will go: the cast not really listening because they've heard it all about a thousand times. As I approached the group aidy saw me and interupted lorne completely
"y/n!!" she beamed
"hi" I said shyly "sorry for interrupting" I didn't want to be a nuisance
"ah its no big deal-this lot have already heard it many times before and anyways, I need to talk to the crew" lorne reassured me "nice to have you back" he came over and hugged me
"thanks" I smiled at him, he then left me to the others who all one by one came up to hug me and tell me how much they missed me, even Harry acknowledged my presence
"hello, I'm Harry" he put out a hand
"y/n" I took it and shook it gently
"nice to meet you" he winked at me "I love those trousers by the way" he stepped back a little to admire them
"thank you, that's so sweet" I twirled on the spot, showing them off
"I've probably got the same ones at home" he said raising his eyebrows, I laughed at his honesty because i definitely know he's telling the truth, he's a style icon.
"hey girl" it was cecily coming over to hug me
"hey" I embraced her
"you better today?" she asked
"much better thank you"
"you're telling me everything after the show" she looked into my eyes
"of course" I smiled. After all my hugs and greetings I noticed that bill was no where to be seen
"where's bill?" I asked beck as I pulled away from our hug
"he was here earlier but I think he's in his dressing room" he sounded unsure
"speaking of bill" kate interrupted "you too have gotten very close lately, and you think none of us have noticed" she looked at me smug
"I mean... I guess" I laughed nervously
"you guess what?" she narrowed her eyes comically at me
"you said dressing rooms, right beck?"  I changed the subject, he nodded
"have a great show" I took this as my chance a turned and ran
"you can't hide it forever!" I heard Kate shout, I turned and smiled at the group and put my middle finger up at them, they laughed as I turned back and kept walking.

I finally met with bills dressing room and knocked on the door
"come in" I heard him say, I opened the door slowly
"strippergram is here" I joked as I twirled into the room
"finally" he got up from his seat and came over to me, he wrapped his arms around me a Kissed me, lifting me up off the ground gently-he twirled he around like I weighed nothing, as much as I wanted to keep on kissing him I knew that he had to be on soon, so I pulled away slowly as he put me down
"hey baby" I looked into his eyes twirling his hair in my fingers
"hey sugar" he kept his eyes on mine as he held me tight "I Missed You" he smiled tenderly
"I literally saw you last night" I raised a eyebrow at him
"I know but I missed seeing you so happy like you usually are" he looked so sincere
"well I'm going to be like this for a long time now, will that make you happy?"
"yes, very much" he leaned in to kiss me again, I refused to Kiss him all week because I didn't want to get him sick so now that I was okay, I realised how much I missed his soft lips. We Kissed for awhile until I heard
"5 minutes"  he needed to be on stage, surprisingly he broke the kiss for once
"we need to go" he said stroking my cheek his thumb
"I was just about to say that" I picked up my bag from the floor
"I know, I thought it should be my turn to break the kiss" he chuckled
"beat me to it" I pulled myself out of his grip, he laughed a little as he took my hand and we left his dressing room.

We made it to the studio, it was 10x busier than before. We made our way to the first set were bill would be first and met with everyone else.
"ah, here they are the lovebirds" Kyle teased, I realised that we were still holding hands but before I could let go I thought for a moment, they know now-let's not make it even more awkward.
"hi" I said, smiling proudly, bill looked at me slightly surprised
"you guys ready" he quickly said
"yeah-we're ready" aidy said looking at the others smugly, hopefully they won't make a big fuss about it tonight.

I noticed that bill was getting twitchy- meaning he was getting nervous "you'll be fine" I looked into bills eyes
"yeah?" he said desperately, instead of saying something as a reply I cupped bills face with my hands and Kissed him tenderly, I pulled away smiling and thankfully he was smiling too
"better?" I raised one eyebrow
"much better" he hugged me tight"20 seconds" the countdown begun
"right, you ready?" i pulled away
"yeah, I think so" bill looked at the stage "thank you" he looked at me with a weak smile on his face
"no problem".

He went on and unsurprisingly him and everyone else did so well, I stayed at the side of the stage and watched as bill tried not to burst out laughing during the weekend update, with him playing stefon, it was probably the best part of the show. Then the show finally ended, the audience cheering and the cast congratulating one another. When they were done me and Bill walked back to his dressing room, hand in hand like before, talking about the show.
"I mean the stefon bit tonight was so fucking funny-I can belive some of the shit you were saying"
"John is one crazy son of a bitch" he replied
"true, but stefon and seth are so cute together, don't you think?" I teased
"yeah-maybe it's not just stefon who's in love with seth" he winked at me
"I mean if you were to be with anyone else I wouldn't be mad if it was seth" i confessed
"really?" he was suprised
"yeah" I laughed at his confusion
"isn't seth married?" he changed the subject as he opened the door
"I think so" I sat down on the sofa
"don't get so comfortable - were leaving soon"
"whatever" I laid down
"you tired?" bill walked over and sat by my side
"no" I lied
"well I definitely hope your not because we're going to have a lot of fun tonight" he winked at me
"alot of fun?" I narrowed my eyes at him
"oh yeah" he leant down and Kissed me gently-I knew exactly what he meant, and it made me more excited for the evening to come.
