Oh baby, (Pun Intended) 2015 has been a busy year for the One Direction Fandom. We miss you Zayn! My best friend Allix and I have been there since the start of their fame, but because we are well into our 20’s now we like to think of ourselves as the older sister’s to the Directioners. As we are preparing for their upcoming show here at MetLife Stadium, we wanted to take a journey back to the past two summers that we spent fawning over those beautiful lads.
Here are Allix’s memories from the best night of our lives.
Hey Y’all!
As most of you are well aware, Shelbs and I are 110% obsessed with five beautiful lads from the United Kingdom (and Ireland) . Our friendship started with our love for Harry Styles, and now it has continued all the way to Wembley Stadium in London where we saw them perform!
The night of the concert was hands down (or hands up) the best night of our entire lives. Our first glimpse of Wembley with the giant LED “One Direction Tour” sign leading the way, was like our very own yellow brick road leading us home. After paying way to much for a shirt we stumbled upon the already huge line of anxious girls waiting to file into the blue section that was planted right in front of the epic Wembley stage.
Already having stood for 4 hours, Shelbs and I were numb from the shoulders down and dying of anticipation and excitement. The opening act was one of our other favourite boy bands, 5SOS, coming straight from Australia. Give a cute boy a guitar and an accent and we are hooked.
Pumped and ready to go it was finally time, the boys we have chased and admired for three years were about to stand 20 feet in front of us belting out our favorite tunes. You could say Shelbs and I are bursting from the seams at this point.
The first glimpse of Harry Styles (Shelbs’s husband) and Niall Horan (my husband) was a sight I will never forget. I am convinced that Niall waved directly to me during the opening song, not just one of the random girls in the crowd. We definitely had a moment.
Ending the night with sore feet, full hearts, and deaf ears, you could say that our love for these boys has grown in a way that we never thought possible. If we weren’t already obsessed, we are more than obsessed now.
London, thank you for giving us the five most perfect lads on this earth!
Love, Allix
We also couldn’t complete this post without reminiscing on the moment two years ago that we met THE Harry Styles. It was a moment so beautiful that we can’t even out into words, so we will just leave these pictures here. We know that Allix’s is blurry (sad times, but better luck next time we hang out) but she loves it just the same.
Let us know in the comments below if you are secretly a Directioner like us!?
