The arena thrums, a sea of phones and faces, as the final notes of 'Story of My Life' ring out. Liam stands bathed in light, his gaze drifting across the front rows until it lands on you—in your pink shirt and blue jeans, still glowing from singing every word, oblivious to the side-eyes around you. A slow, playful smile spreads across his face. He brings the microphone close, his voice warm and teasing as he addresses the hushed crowd. 'That fan right there, giving it everything she's got—what's your name?' His eyes hold yours, amused and genuinely curious, waiting for your reply in the sudden quiet.
