I wake up, and then I wake up Louis. He's actually hard to wake up. When I get him up, I get everyone else up. "Okay, so we need our clothes." Zayn says sleepily. "Okay, so brush your hair and we can go get them." Laura says. They all get ready and then Mya, Laura, and I do too. "Can't we eat breakfast, first?" Niall asks. "Come on." I grab his arm and I take him to the kitchen. I fix him a bowl of fruit loops and he eats them. "Yay." He says. I'm wearing a red and white striped shirt, and orange jeans. Louis puts on his Nemo suspenders. "I'm ready." Louis says. Mya hands me my Nemo suspenders, so I put them on. "Nemo's got on Nemo!" Louis says. I laugh. When we're all ready we go to the boys's hotel. "We'll be right back." Harry says. He kisses Mya and then he walks inside. "Stay here, Nemo." Louis laughs. "I will." I laugh too. When they're gone, I turn to Mya. "I was fine with them sleeping over, I was fine with staying there while they're here, but pushing us in the same room doesn't help." I say. "Sorry, I just wanted you two to become a couple. I mean you're a perfect match and you love him." Mya says. "I need to get to know him first." I say. "But before you said you loved him." Mya says. "That's because I didn't think I'd actually ever see him." I say.
"So do you or not?" Laura asks. "I like him." I say. "And he likes you. You two are the perfect match." Laura says. "Yeah, you and your suspender buddy." Mya says. "We're just friends." I say. "Well from what he said last night, to him you're best friends." Laura says. "Yeah we are- wait, how'd you know he said that?" I ask. "Uh... we don't..." Laura says. "No way! You spied on us!" I say. "Yeah, and all we found out was you really like him, you're best friends, and you got his suspenders." Mya says. "Why'd you spy on us?" I ask. "We had to see if anything happened." Laura asks. "Which nothing happened." Mya says. "And that gave you the reason to spy?" I ask. "Yeah." Mya says. I step up closer to her and Mya backs away. "You're still my best friend, but do not do that again." I say. I hug them. "Got it." Mya says. The boys come out after a few minutes. They have their bags. We walk home. They get their stuff settled. "What should we do?" Zayn asks. "Aria, should choose." Liam says. "I know what Nemo will choose." Louis says. "What?" I ask. "DANCE PARTY!" He shouts. I laugh. We start dancing like idiots. "Well come on, Laura." I say. I grab her hand and we start dancing, soon all of us are dancing like idiots to no music.
After a while we turn on music. One Direction. The boys sing their parts along with the music on the CD. Mya, Laura, and I sing along with all the parts. Their song, 'Stand Up', comes on. Louis's part comes on. "I know your heart it's been broken. But don't you give up. I'll be there, yeah I know it. To fix you with love." Louis and I sing. "It hurts me to think that you've ever cried." Niall and Laura sing. "Oh oh ohhh oh, so put your hands up! Oh oh ohhh oh, 'cuz it's a stand up! And I won't be leaving 'til I've finished stealing every piece of your heart." We all sing. Louis and I start dancing like actual idiots. Jumping around like crazy. Then 'Little Things' comes on. You can't hop around to a slower song. Mya and Harry are hugging and dancing. Laura and Niall are dancing slowly, though Niall looks like he's focused on something other than Laura, but I don't know what. Liam and Zayn are sitting down. Louis stares at me. "May I have this dance?" He asks, holding out his hand. "Yes." I say and take his hand. We start dancing, slower and closer. We're still holding hands, while we dance. We dance until the song's almost over. "I won't let these little things, slip out of my mouth. But if it's true. It's you. It's you. They add up to. I'm in love with you and all your little things." All of us sing. Then Louis and I realize we're the only ones dancing.
Mya's and Laura's attempts at making us a couple are failing horribly. Louis and I stare at each other and then back away, not holding hands anymore. "Okay, how about lunch?" I ask. Niall nods like crazy, the rest shake their head no. "Come on." I say and grab Niall's arm. I make him a sandwich. The rest of them sit in the living room laughing at something someone had said. "So, you.. you and Louis sure were dancing close." Niall says. "You and Laura were too." I say. "Laura." He says. "Don't you like her?" I ask. "Yeah I like her." He says. "Then what's the problem?" I ask. He hesitates and then says, "Nothing." He eats his sandwich on the couch. I sit back down next to Louis. "Nemo's got some dance moves." Louis laughs, nudging me. "Yeah, the chicken dance." I laugh flapping my arms like a chicken. "Well, chicken dances are cute." He says staring at me. I smile. "Why can't she see it?" Mya whispers. "I know right, why can't he?" Harry whispers. Honestly- Mya and Harry need to whisper quieter. We talk and laugh and watch TV for a long time, then it's night. Time really does fly when you're having fun.
"I'm gonna take a shower." Laura says. During the time after the dance party thing all of us took showers except Laura. She's last. "I'm tired." Harry yawns. "Me too." Mya says. "You can help me fix the room to go to sleep." Harry says. Mya laughs but they go to the room. "We are too, so good-night." Liam says. Zayn and Liam walk off to their room. "I'm hungry." Niall says. "I'm gonna go get ready for bed." Louis says and then he yawns. He walks to the bedroom. "You're always hungry." I laugh. I start looking through the cabinets. "You want.... a sandwich?" I ask. "Sure." He says. I fix him a sandwich and he sits down to eat it. I sit down in front of him. "Are you okay?" I ask. "Yeah." He says, but he's a terrible liar. "I can tell you're lying." I say. He gets up. "I'm not that hungry anymore." He says. I get up and pick up his sandwich. "You sure?" I ask. "Yeah." He says. "Okay..." I say and throw the sandwich in the trash. "Why can't you tell me what's wrong?" I ask. "Fine.. I don't like Laura like that. But it's this girl. But I don't have a chance with her at all. She's... perfect, and I'm pretty sure she likes someone else." He says.
"It's sad about Laura, she really likes you. But a girl? Of course you have a chance. And I'm sure she's not perfect. Nobody's perfect. You just have to take a chance." I say. "Well, she's perfect to me. And thanks, Aria, but I don't have a chance, and I can't take one. What if I mess up?" He asks. "I'm sure you won't mess up." I say. He stays silent. "I can't do it." He says. "Yes you can." I say. "Aria, I can't. I know I can't. I'll choke up, and I'll look like a fool." He says. "Okay, here's what I want you to do. Next time you see her, tell her how you feel. Kiss her or something." I say. I look down the hall to see if Laura's there. Nobody's there. I would hate for Laura to hear that Niall likes someone else. I look back at Niall and he's just staring at me. "What if she's standing right in front of me?" He asks. I look around and realize I'm the one in front of him. He would mean metaphorically right? "What do you mean?" I ask. "The girl... is you, Aria." He says staring at the ground. He looks at me and then he quickly walks to his room. I stand there for a second wondering if he was kidding. I start to walk to my room, when Mya walks out and goes to her couch. Then Laura comes out. "You okay?" She asks. "Tired.. uh- night." I say and walk in my room. Louis's asleep, I think. So I lay down and I go to sleep too.
