"Stop and stare, I think I'm moving but I go nowhere. Yeah I know that everyone gets scared, But I've become what I can't be,"
I wake up to the sound of Stop and Stare by OneRepublic. It was 9:00 in the morning and I still wasn't use to how different the time change was in London. I literally rolled out of bed to be face to face with my puppy, Rusty. He whimpered a bit and then pretended to chase after somthing, still dreaming. He was the only one out of the two of us that was use to the time difference already.
I quietly walk over to him and in to the bathroom.
So i bet your thinking 'what is a 19 year old girl doing in London?' Not thinking that? I'll tell you the story anyway. Long story short, the only family I have left is here in London, my bestfriend Cher Lloyd. So i figure why not move from America to England?
I heard my phone buzz on the counter, and I grabbed it.
Cher:pxx :
Hey, I'll be over at 11:30 so we can start getting ready for the party!!
Ahh I almost forgot me and Cher were going to a New Years party so that I could get to meet more people. Yeah, note the sarcasim. I liked parties but, I don't really enjoy being that 'new girl'.
Me:
Can't wait!! :)
I took a quick shower and then threw on a T-shirt and running shorts. I walked down stairs to find Rusty at the bottom, looking at me with big puppy dog eyes I couldn't resist. "Fine I give in." I say walking towards his bowl and filling it with food. "Happy now?" The only response I receive was the sound of dog food be devoured. I walk into the kitchen and devoured my own bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios.
Soon after I finished my cereal, there was a banging on my door followed by screaming, "Rachel!!! If you don't open this door right now I'll break it down!!"
I causally walked over to the door, opening it to reveal Cher with at least three bags filled with styling tools, make-up, and clothes.
"Took you long enough." she said inviting her self in.
"Oh please." I say sacrastically. "So, care to give me any information about this party we are going to??"
"Umm, no."
"Cher!!"
"Ok,ok. Don't get your knickers in a twist. Uhh, well.... Its at Josh Devine's house, so there will be a lot of famouse people there, such as One Direction, Ed Sheeran, and yeah me!" she finished with a smile.
When she was done my jaw was litterally on the floor. "W-what....w-who.....ahhhh!" I was so excited, but at the same time confused. "Cher, why would a normal person like me be there then?"
"Cause you know me!" she said happily. "And I uh also...uh..saidyouwouldperformsomesongsfortheparty.' she said the last part really fast so I could understand.
"English please." I said hoping what I was hearing wasn't true.
"I said that you would perform some songs for the party." she said with a hesitant look.
I felt my stomach drop, I started to sweat, I couldn't think straight. "Cher!!!!!!! WHY WHY! WHY ME WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY SINGERS THERE??!! WHY?"
"Well its there night off, and its the only way I would be able to get you into the party." she explained. I sighed. I started to think of all the worst case senarios, and then I started to sweat again. "Hey calm down, just don't think about it yet. We still have plenty of time so lets get ready for the party.
"Yeah, you're right. Lets just get ready."
I just prayed to god that I don't mess up.
Especially not in front of One Direction.
