When i met Darius
I have been a fan of darius for a long time, and as soon as i found out he was doing a signing i knew that i would be there.
Me and my best friends Lynne and Fiona got the 9 o'clock train into Glasgow. When we arrived there were only a few people gathered outside Virgin, so we decided to go to boots and grap something to eat and the toilets as we never knew how long we would have to stand in the queue. Then on our way out of the Buchannan Galleries i stopped at a little flower shop to get darius a real red rose.
Then we started to make our way to the top floor of Virgin, where a small queue of people had already gathered. so we sat down with them to wait.
Not long after we joined the queue, all the press started to arrive, all the scottish newspapers, radio stations and the scottish news.
And then all the cameras started flashing as darius walked out of the lift and waved over at the crowd and all the fans stared screaming and chanting darius as loud as we could.
Finally it was my turn to meet the man, i walked up to the desk and he said hi girls and asked how we were. then he signed my cd, and i handed over the rose and a letter, he said thank you, and that i didnt need to bother getting him anything, then he told me it was really sweet of me to get him something.
Then i asked if i could take a photo of him and he agreed with no problem. Then we stepped away and nearly forgot the most important thing, a kiss so i stepped back towards the table and asked him, he smiled and said yes.
We left virgin as soon as we'd met him as we got told we had to go down the escalator. we went straight out of virgin and went into some shops, but decided we had to go back and see him again.
Next time round getting past the secruity guards took some persuation, and they told us there wasnt enough time, but darius told them to let us and the others waiting back up.
When we got upstairs we were told that we actually werent allowed to go and meet darius we could only go up if we were going to look at dvd's and video. but when we gathered to watch darius from the side, he told his people to let us round to meet him
This time round was just as good, he signed my magazine  and i got more photos, then this time instead of going down the escalators, we got to sstand at the side with some press (well a woman from real radio) anyway we got to stand their until the signing was over.
Then it was over and darius got up to leave and took my rose with him, he said bye to the small crowd of us thar was still there. Then he said hed see us soon, and i said at the irn bru live and loud and he smiled and said yes, then waved and walked off into the lift.
