*Mira*

"I wanna stay UP ALL NIGHT AND JUMP AROUND UNTIL WE SEE THE SUN!" I yell into my hairbrush. Sure, I'm eighteen, but it doesn't mean I have to act like it!

"I wanna stay UP ALL NIGHT AND FIND A GIRL AND TELL HER SHE'S THE ONE!" Zayn sings beside me. In the two years I have known him, I have actually never listened to One Direction music. I'm only singing to it now because I heard Zayn singing it. Then Zayn decided to put all the One Direction songs on his iPhone to shuffle, and here we are.

"UP ALL NIGHT LIKE THIS ALL NIGHT HEY!" We sing, giggling uncontrollably

"Okay okay okay!" Liam comes in, grabbing Zayn's phone and turning down the volume. We plop down onto the floor

"Why spoil our fun Liam?" I pout, and Liam shakes his head

"One, you will break the walls with sound waves, and two, management is calling us to a special meeting" I jump up

"Just you guys or me too?"

"Actually," Liam says "they said the meeting was mainly about you Mira"

"YAY!" I squeal "I'm a special person!" I dance around like an extremely special person

"Yes Mira," Zayn says, wrapping his arms around my waist and kissing the top of my head "you are a very special person. Mentally." I mock punch him

"Shut up and get ready to go to my special meeting"

____________________

When we enter a small, conference room, I have to resist the urge to say "now, you must be wondering why I've called you here" because the atmosphere is so serious. Zayn senses it to, and he squeezes my hand and shoots me a smirk.

We take our seats, and just like that, we begin.

"Alright!" Terry says, sounding like some criminal master mind "the main point of this meeting is to discuss your public image" he turns to Zayn "we'll start with you." I snicker

"Suck" I giggle "Zany poo's in trouble!"

"Don't laugh Mira," Terry says "you'll get your turn. You are in the public eye just as much as the others" this shuts me up

"I don't see why I need help with my public image," Zayn says cockily "I am perfect in every way" I snort, and Zayn glares at me. I smirk

"Well, you do have one problem," Terry says "you need to stop smoking in public. It's putting the fans off" at this request, Zayn grins

"Don't worry about that!" He says "I'm quitting all together! I don't want Mira getting lung cancer when I kiss her or something!"

"I won't get lung cancer!" I protest "you don't have to give up smoking for me!"

"You might get some other cancer when I-"

"Shut up Zayn!" I knew what he was going to say next, and I would rather he not say it in company.

"Harry." Terry turns to the curly haired boy "you must know what I'm going to say" Harry sighs

"I promise to try not to flirt with all the girls" he promises, not very convincingly

"We need to get you a girlfriend Haz," I say "someone to keep you occupied. Someone who isn't old enough to be your mother. Or your grandmother"

"Aw come on that was one time-"

"Just saying!"

"And Mira," Terry focuses on me and I gulp "we have a special job for you" I grin and nudge Zayn

"Told you I was special!"

"We love that you're dating Zayn, it's cute, but we don't think you should make it public" I frown

"Okay...why?"

"Well...to make One Direction more appealing, it helps that they are all single. Except one or two of course" he looks at Liam "Liam and Danielle are a good couple and provides good support"

"But," a producer I don't know the name of pipes up "we should have another couple. That would be good publicity"

"Yes, it would!" Terry nods "which is why, Mira, we-"

"If you guys need another couple then Zayn and I should go public!" I point out, and Terry looks nervous

"Well, the thing is, we don't think you two are the best for the public eye. Mira, you are all sweet and cute, while Zayn is pretty much the bad boy of One Direction" he squirms "which is why we-"

"Of you're asking us to break up forget it!" Zayn snaps

"Oh no! It's nothing like that...it's just.."

"We think...." The other producer says "you have to..."

"Oh stop being pussies and tell them!" A stern looking producer snaps. He glares at me

"Tell us what?" I demand, and the stern producers pipes up

"You're not going to go public with Zayn," he announces "you're going to date Louis!"
