Chapter 8 – training begins (Katie’s POV)
We touch down in London a few hours later. The boys were awesome to hang out with! Sometimes it took all my will not to fan-girl about the fact I am HANGING OUT WITH ONE DIRECTION! Hey; I’m still a teenager at heart! I laughed at Louis holding up a carrot and cheering to all of his fans out the limo door. I looked over at Abby; she looked happy but I could tell she was itching for a chance to get out there and find out where the hell her parents were.
“You do realize that searching for your parents should be the last thing on your minds.” I whispered to her.
“I know Kit Kat but I just can’t help it” Abby said to me in a soft voice. I felt bad for Abby; at least I had one parent still alive.
“I know but right now; focus ok?” I smiled at her. She nodded and began to text Mark asking for any updates.
I sighed before turning to Louis who smiled at me and placed me on his lap. I snuggled up to him and felt my heart race when he stroked my heart. I mentally scowled myself! I will NOT gain feelings any more than a fan when it came to this! It was against protocol and it could lead to serious stuff with Mark later on in the mission.
I felt the limo stop and I knew we were at Louis’s house. We had agreed to stay at Louis’s and Harry’s house so we don’t have to be separated. We tumbled out of the Limo and walked into the freshly cleaned apartment. This place was definitely luxurious! The floor was wooden oak and the theme seemed to be casual yet elegant. I could get used to this…Maybe Abby and I should become singers!
No; our lives would be too complicated anyway. I put my stuff in the guest bedroom just as Abby and Brittany walked in with their gear.
“Katie, do a sweep. It’ll be good to know if the boys have any….visitors” Brittany said.
I groaned but nodded; why did I get the boring jobs?! No fair play God! I did a quick sweep and found no ‘bugs’. These ‘bugs’ were electronic wireless walkie talkie type of things. I don’t really pay attention to technology but it basically replayed everything given to another source.
I felt the drowsiness from lack of sleep come over me and I knew I would have to sleep soon or I was going to pass out. Brittany saw me and gave a nod to Abby who replied with a nod. I was dragged up to the bedroom.
The moment I collapsed onto the bed I passed out into the familiar darkness where my dreams laid.

I woke up sharply a few hours later to a knock on the door. I got up and stretched and opened the door to see Louis in front of me. He smiled at me and I opened the door wider to let him in.
“Good afternoon Louis. What do you want?” I asked; trying to keep things professional. He frowned and looked slightly hurt and I felt guilt enter me.
I had to keep things professional. Having stronger feelings for him would cause trouble and cloud my judgement.
“It’s ten o’clock in the morning Katie. You’ve slept for over twelve hours.” Louis said to me. I felt shock go through me. I slept that long?! What about Abby and Brittany?! They were supposed to wake me up after a few hours.
“Anyway…I was wondering…I know we’re supposed to…uhhhh….fake date so…will you come on a date with me Katie?” He asked me nervously.
I snapped out of my shock when his words registered in my mind. Oh! I was supposed to be dating him! Right, how could I forget?
“Sure Louis but don’t you have training now?” I asked him with a frown.
“We’re just about to leave. Are you coming or do you want to stay here?” Louis asked me.
