"Tonight's the night," I say to myself as I suddenly open my eyes. Tonight is Halloween, my absolute favorite holiday. I skip out of pure joy into the mine and the boys' living room of the flat. I go to wake up Louis, then Liam, Niall, and finally Zayn. I'm sure though, that Zayn was already awake, considering I was yelling and dancing in an effort to wake them up from their peaceful, and now awakened slumber. After everyone was up and ready I made some pumpkin pancakes for them, in hopes they wouldn't completely hate me at the moment. After we finished our delicious and probably undercooked breakfast, I decided to bring up the obvious elephant in the room.
"What time should we get ready for Simon's party tonight?" I said.
Liam spoke up sarcastically, "God, mate I know you were just dying to bring it up, weren't you."
"Yes okay, tonight's my favorite of the year and I beg of you to just simply answer the question so-" I got cut off
"Woah chill mate, I was kidding, we'll get ready at seven and leave at eight," Liam said.
With that, I felt satisfied with his answer and went to take a quick, but relieving, and very well-needed nap. See, I couldn't sleep most of the previous night out of utter excitement for everything, I and the boys would be dressing up as 'Scooby Doo' characters. I would be Scooby, Liam as Fred, Louis as Shaggy, Niall as Daphne, and Zayn as Velma. It was definitely a weird combo, but funny and us nonetheless. I'd always wondered what it would be like to be a dog. Now I guess I'd know.
I woke up just a few hours before the party, I got ready to head off to Simon's for the party, we were to meet a few other people there, too, one being my sister, Gemma, oh and some huge record producing guys. I'm just hoping they don't ruin our night always trying to talk business about everything.
When we'd arrived everything was great. It was a beautiful venue, very fancy too, I felt like I was living Kim Kardashian's life. Although we probably stood out of the crowd, considering we were wearing costumes of a children's show, we didn't let people's thoughts ruin our night. We danced and sang until the sun came up, actually, I wouldn't know, the room was very closed off and dimly lit, but I had a feeling it was a long time. Everything was so perfect until...
I woke up the next morning feeling a sharp pain in my back and my body felt out of place. I tried to stand up but could only walk on all fours to the bathroom. Strange. Once I get there I look in the mirror and stayed there for minutes in disbelief, I had seen my costume laying on the floor when I walked, well crawled out of my bedroom, and yet I see myself in the mirror and see a dog. Very similar to my costume, I might add. I try to speak but all that comes out is a small, short-lived bark. I go out to the living room of the flat and see the boys. Louis walks over to me, and he's taller than me, how in the world is that possible?
He starts to talk to me in a childish tone," Oh are you such a good boy!" he said.
Hadn't they wondered where I was? I mean really, were they not concerned? Niall walks over and scratches my head, although it felt nice, I had bigger issues to attend to.
Then Niall goes, " Can we keep him? He can be like our little group pet!"
"I don't see why not," Zayn says.
Fast forward 9 months.........
It has been two-hundred-seventy-three days since that day, that cursed day. After the headlines hit, it killed me to see the boys mourning over my disappearance, when they had been with me the entire time without knowing it. But once everyone just chilled out and stopped caring, so did One Direction. We flopped. I assume that the young prodigy of what could've been one of the best bands on the planet gave up. At that point I didn't care that I was a literal Great Dane, I cared about the fact that they stopped doing what they loved just because of my absence. Hey kids, quick PSA: Halloween is not fun.
