Niall, Harry, Liam, Louis, and Zayn, you 5 boys are the best thing that has happened to my life. I had known about you for a while before your album came out, maybe not quite since the beginning but for a long time. A couple weeks before your album came out I was getting depressed, I almost cut myself a few times, and I honestly regret ever thinking that it would be a good idea. But the week that your album came out was the week that I got sick, I was out of school all week long, and I swear all I did was listen to your album, listen to your covers of songs, and watch your videos. It was the best week of my life.
I know you say that you love your fans, and I believe you, but you will never know how much you mean to us, you have saved lives, and created dreams for people everywhere. Whenever I see a picture of you my face lights up, whenever I see a video I think about it for days and quote it without end. Words cannot describe what you mean to me and all the other fans out there in the world. I feel like I know you and like we have been friends forever, but then I realize that you are five 18-20 year old boys who are incredibly famous, and I am one almost 14 year old girl who nobody knows about. It makes me sad to know that you will never notice me, and that I will always just be another fan, but when I see pictures and videos of you it cheers me up again.
Sometimes I wonder what will happen when I am older and I am moving out and I look and see an old box of your pictures, posters and merchandise, I wonder how I will feel, knowing how much you meant to me, knowing how much you will still mean to me.
You have raised my self-confidence so much, just by saying in an interview that you prefer curvy girls, or by saying that intelligence is sexy. Whenever I feel down, I just think: one direction thinks I’m pretty. And I instantly feel better. I know that when I don’t feel pretty all I have to do is go to my iPod and turn on “What Makes You Beautiful” and 3 minutes and 27 seconds of you singing can make me feel good all day long.
I am going to be going to one of your concerts soon and I am so excited that I will be able to see you! Unfortunately I am not sitting very close to the stage, and it’s in Los Vegas, so there are going to be tons of girls that are a thousand times prettier than me, but all I can hope for is that somehow, I will meet you, or run into you somewhere, or really just anything so that you would notice me, because you really do mean everything to me. I don’t know how I lived before I knew about you, but I am so glad that I do know about you and that you will always be important to me.
I really hope you read this so that you can somewhat understand your importance to me.
Thank you for being the most perfect 5 boys in the world.
Your forever dedicated fan,
Michaela
