Potatoes, Carrots, and Tour Busses (One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 5

Harry's POV

 The girl, which I think is Maria, looked at me, tears in her eyes. Her bottom lip quivered as she stared at me. I started crying too. I know what you are thinking: Why is Harry Styles crying? Wow.

 Maria runs at me full speed and tackles me in a bear hug. I hug her back and start sobbing with her. Maria pulls back, wiping tears from her cool blue eyes.

   "Do-on't you e-ever d-do tha-at again Ha-arry Edward Sty-yles!" Maria says in-between sobs while playfully slapping my arm.

   "I won't e-ever do-o that a-again I-I pro-omise." I reply to her squeezing her hand.

 There is a cough from the doorway showing a confused Niall and I look to my right to find a confused Layla. Snowflake also looks confused with her tiny head tilted to the left. I laugh at the scene and Maria notices too. We both just laugh and everyone's faces just get mor confusinger. I don't think confusinger is a word but oh well! I hug Maria again before she crosses her legs. Snowflake took the chance and dashed to Maria's lap where she became a white fluffy fluff.

  Maria giggles and looks up at Niall whilst patting her hand next to her, indicating for Niall to sit down. Niall does what he was shown and sits down criss-crossed next to her.

   "Care to explain?" Niall points to me and Maria.

   "Hold on. Maria is this the Hazz boy you told me about?" Layla asks Maria.

  Maria grins at her nodding her head. She turns to Niall still grinning.

   "Harry was my best friend from ever since I was born to middle school. We were neighbors and we grew up together. He was my neighbor, my best friend, the brother I never had. Did you know that I was the one to help this cheeky boy ask a girl he liked out?"

  "Naw, really? Is that true Harry?" Niall laughs. I nod in embarrassment cause I'm the flirt and the girl-getter in the band.

   "Yup!" Maria says popping the "p".

  "So as I was saying, Harry was everything to me. If he had a bad day I would come over and we would watch a movie, eating marsh mellow popcorn. And if I had a bad day, he would come over with chick flicks, a pint of Ben and Jerry's, and whipped cream."

  Maria looks at me and I nod my head for her to go on. Maria looks back to Niall and Layla and her grin drops.

   "So when Harry told me he was moving, I was devastated. I just couldn't think of how my life would be without him. The day of his moving away came and we both promised to keep in touch. Well I guess we all know that didn't work." Maria giggles.

   "So we both cried and cried, after watching our last movie together, eating the last Ben and Jerry's we would share, and the last time making mustaches on our faces out of whipped cream together. I bawled my eyes out that night and I just couldn't sleep."

 A tear falls down Maria's cheek and Niall wipes it from her face.

   "Thanks Niall. So we both lost touch and kinda forgot about each other. I made friends but I could never call them best friends. Until I met Layla and my other best friend in college." Maria says pointing to Layla and out the door. I hear Louis and a girl singing to the Macarena. I still won't understand the kid.

Maria's POV

  After me, Harry, Layla, and Niall talk a little I explain to Harry and Niall why Layla, me, and Bhumi are here in their tour bus.

   "We all wanted to do something bad-ass and get in trouble for on the day after we graduated college. So we heard One Direction was performing in the city next to us so we just had to ya know? That is why we packed a week full of clothing in our duffel bags and some personal necessities." I explain while Layla is nods at me and glances at the boys.
