> Sixteen Years Old <
Gemma was out with friends and Anne was out grocery shopping. I had my four friends over and we were having a movie night. We all had comfortable clothes on, sitting on the couch downstairs.
Sabrina jumped up and ran for the kitchen holding a empty bowl of popcorn in her hand. Daisy was looking through my movies, trying to find one. Arlene was painting her nails, concentrating really hard. Tera was looking around and eyeing every scary movie Daisy passed like it wad the devil itself. I was watching the front door, waiting for Anne to walk through.
"Allison, which movie?" Daisy asked.
I looked at her and the two movies she was holding up. I looked between Friday the 13th and The Notebook. I pointed to The Notebook just as the front door opened. I whirled around to see if it was Anne or Gemma returning early.
To my surprise, and the surprise of my friends, five boys walked throught the door. Tera looked alarmed and was looking around for something to bash them with. Sabrina threw her bowl of freshly cooked popcorn at them in surprise. Daisy jusy continued with her movie thing. Arlene looked at them and her jaw dropped.
"T-that's One Direction!" She sqeaked.
"One what?" I asked.
"The boy band that won third place in the X-Factor!" She sqeaked again.
"My brother is in that. Wait. Won third place? Does that mean Harry will be coming home soon?" I questioned, hope swelling up in me.
One of the boys laughed out loud while the other four covered their mouths. I studied him a bit. These boys barge into my house, and they have the nerve to laugh at me? How dare they!
"It's nice to know that you don't recognise your own brother," the one that laughed out loud said.
I looked closely and noticed that it was indeed Harry. I jumped up and latched myself onto him. I felt my eyes tear up and I started blubbering again. My friends and the other boys busted out laughing. I felt my face heat up but I kept blubbering on.
"It's good to know you are still the blubbering idiot I left behind. At least you made friends," Harry chuckled.
I got mad at that. I opened my mouth and bit his side. He jumped and I unlatched, falling to the ground. His face scruntched up. I punched him in his calf. I was satisfied when he fell to the ground in pain.
"Bloody hell. What was that for Allison?" Harry growled.
"Making fun of me," I stated calmly.
"Who are these guys?" Sabrina asked hesitantly.
"I'm Niall Horan. These other blokes are Zayn Malik, Louis Tomlinson, and Liam Payne," a blonde bloke with an Irish accent stated, pointing to each in turn.
"The fact that you all have different vibes breaking off you all is weird," Daisy spoke up.
"Well, we have Daddy Direction, the flirt, the bad boy, the funny one, and the Irish one," Zayn said, pointing to Liam, Harry, himsef, Louis, and then Niall.
"We have the same! See! We have Momma Bear, the charmer, the hilarious one, the terrible girl, and the Irish one!" Arlene said, pointing to Tera, me, Sabrina, herself, and Daisy.
"When did we discover that?" Tera asked.
"Obviously just now," Sabrina muttered.
"Well. What are your names?" Liam asked.
"Oh! I'm Allison Styles. These blokes with me are Daisy Peterson, Sabrina Becker, Arlene Bellfluer, and Tera Witchaker," I smiled, pointing to each in turn.
A chorus of greetings were exchaged, besides Harry. He was still clutching his calf in pain. I punched him in his other before I stood up. I don't think Anne would be prepared for ten people to be in her house when she got home.
As usual, Anne surprised me. She bought enough pizza to feed the eleven of us. I was satisfied after dinner, until I realised Anne was prepared.
"Mum? Did you know Harry was coming home and bringing friends?" I asked.
She just nodded and sent me to my room. My friends were passed out all over it, along with Harry and his. Harry claimed my bed, so I just settled down next to him and fell asleep.
