Nice to see you guys again!
I present to you, chapter 11!
The dress change signaled the end of Invisible, once again giving the screaming fangirls, the exhausted parents, the band, and the crew, a short break before starting back up again.
Boyfriend introduced the boys back onto the stage. There wasn't any pyro or streamers for the song, not that it needed any. There were two dance breaks during the song, while everything else was mostly the guys walking around the stage and brushing past as many outstretched hands as possible. Although, there was some dancing during the chorus and the trampoline in the middle towards the back was used.
Cover Girl followed Boyfriend, and it was a more slowed down song. The song had no choreography. Instead, the guys went through the crowd and sang the lyrics to different girls in the audience. This was one reason as to why I liked the song a little more. Another contributing factor could have been Rachel's reaction to Kendall singing directly to her. Seeing as Cover Girl was Rachel's favorite song and Kendall was her favorite member of the band, the experience was full of different emotions, which I find completely necessary to recap.
Kendall had just sung the first couple verses of the song as he walked down a row of screaming girls. He came through the row Rachel and I were sitting in next after he looked at a couple girls in the row on the other side of the aisle. By then, James was singing the few verses he had, so Kendall gave a couple hugs to different girls as he walked by them. Just as the blonde was reaching the end of row where Rachel and I were, it was time for him to sing the last couple lyrics before the chorus. As he did this, he looked directly into Rachel's eyes and sang the words directly to her, a smile plastered onto his face. Rachel was, of course, shedding happy tears as he did this. As a way to top it all off, Kendall kissed her cheek before leaving our row.
The next song was quite possibly the most anticipated of the night. Worldwide.
The set was very relaxed and calm as the boys sang. There was nothing flashy happening behind them, not that it-
I'm just kidding.
The guys went through the crowd, and if anyone thought the screaming before the concert was loud, the earsplitting noises emitting from the fangirls as the guys went through the crowd was unbearable. Carlos, James, and Logan each though about bringing a few different girls up, but Kendall ultimately decided who would be the Worldwide girl.
And it just so happened to be me.
I looked over at Rachel and saw her smiling at me, signaling to me that I need to follow Kendall onstage. I almost did, until I looked in Rachel's eyes. I know what I'm about to say is super cheesy, but it's true. Rachel's expression was saying, "Go on! Follow the boy! You're his Worldwide girl tonight!" Her eyes, however, were screaming, "Please don't take it. I really wanted it to be me, but I guess I'm just not worth it."
I smiled at Rachel, looked up at Kendall, and uttered, "Can my friend be the Worldwide girl instead? She loves you guys more than anything in the world, and she deserves it so much more than I do. She's been here from the beginning. Besides, it's her birthday."
Kendall smiled at me and replied, "You're quite the friend." Following that, he grabbed Rachel's hand, to which she looked up and almost started crying with joy. As she was led to the stage, she kept looking back, mouthing, "Thank you!" every so often.
I knew that once Rachel was up on that stage, sitting with some of her favorite people, giving up a title was worth it.
I think that'll be it for this chapter!
Fun Facts:
1. Describing the songs is getting harder and harder, so I think I'll just describe the Worldwide experience and finish up the set list
2. I wrote half of this chapter towards the end of January, and I just finished it almost a month later
3. I wanted to make Lalaine the original Worldwide girl just to stir up some minor action
4. I actually forgot how to spell Lalaine's name while typing the previous fun fact. THAT IS NOT A GOOD SIGN
5. This next chapter should close out the concert. ("But, Brie, you said that last time!" Yes, I know, it's difficult to trust me) Look forward to that!
6. My Internet was down which pushed me to finish this chapter
7. The length of this chapter is probably not satisfying, but hey, quality or quantity?
I hope that subsided some of your needs, dear Rushers! Thanks so much for reading! Until next time :)
