Raising the Bar- Blood, Sweat and Chalk (One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter Two: Of Failed Missions and New Found Friendships

Chapterrr twoooooo

*****

Harry POV:

I was just rubbing my wet hair from my shower as there was a knock on the door of Louis and I's hotel room door. Niall, Liam and Zayn were staying in the room across from us.

I walked over to the door and opened it, to see the one person I least expected.

"Nina?" I frowed my eyebrows. What was she doing here?"

She smiled brightly at me "Bring your boys, Styles! We're going on an adventure!"

****

Nina POV:

"So what exactly are we doing?" Niall asked me, munching on a packet of chips.

"And what are you wearing?" Zayn questioned, looking at my all black outfit.

"I am introducing you to the world of the Elite Atheletes!" I grinned widely at them (Ignoring Zayn's rude comment..) as they still looked at me confused. I sighed. "Okay, there is this statue of Pierre de Coubertin outside the front of where all the athletes stay-"

"Wait, Pier- who?" Louis asked confused.

I rolled my eyes at him "Pierre de Coubertin. He is the founder of the International Olympic Committee He practically founded the Modern Olympics! Anyway there is a statue of him and it is tradition for the different teams to steal him from each other. It is said that the last team with it by the opening ceremony, will do the best in the games. The gymnastics team has never even tried and I want us to find it!"

"So why isn't Oliver helping you with this?" Harry asked, confused.

I shrugged "His team had to stay back today and work on some stuff and I thought that this would be a great way for us to bond!" I lifted both of my thumbs up at them, grinning.

Louis stood up straight away "I'm in!"

"Me too!" Niall chimed in, around his chips.

"I guess so..." Harry sighed.

Zayn nodded.

We all turned to Liam. "Isn't this against the rules or something?" We all just kept on staring at him. "Okay! Okay! I'll do it!"

I smirked "Okay, here is our plan of attack. The American Wrestling team has it at the moment, so-"

"How do you know that they have it?" Liam asked.

"They are always the ones to have it until the ceremony... that and one of the guys on the team thinks I'm hot. So he told me everything."

******

I led the boys in a sneaky walk/tip-toe up the outside stairs towards the roof. "This is stupid." Liam spoke loudly into the darkness.

"Shh! We are being stelthy like cats...or robbers!" I whispered, excitedly.

"Lovely, now we are criminals!" Liam whisper/yelled back at me, causing me to roll my eyes.

"Don't be so dramatic, Li." Louis commented.

By this time we had made it to the top floor. "Okay." I said, looking up "We have to get up there."

"What?" Zayn's eyes widened "How are we going to do that.

I turned and grinned at him "There is a reason that I brought you guys along."

******

"Okay. Liam, Louis, you two look as though you have the most upper body strength." I nodded to them to come over to me. They both walked over, warily. "I want both of you to intertwine your fingers with each other.

"Uh, what?" Louis asked, confused.

I sighed "Just do it." They did. "Okay, now I am going to put one of my feet on your hands and when I count to three I want you guys to push me as high as you can upwards."

"What! No! You'll get hurt!" Harry cut in. He looked worried. Aw, cuteeee.

I turned to him "Don't worry I know what I am doing." I then turned to the two other boys "Ready?" They both nodded "One...Two...THREE." I was propelled into the air with a great force, I did a couple of front flips, landing on the roof top.

"Nina!" Harry called "Are you alright?"

I peaked over the edge, giving them a thumbs up. I then turned to search the roof for the head.

****

It took me a while but I found it. Oh, no, not the head, but it was what they intended for me to find.

It was a doll. A barbie doll to be presise. There was a yellow post-it note stuck to it. It read: 'Did you really think it would be that easy? You're playing in the big leagues now, Princess.'

The boys seemed to find it amusing though. When I had come down with the doll they had been confused. That was until they read the note, then they were just in hysterics.

Stupid popstar boys. Completely useless I say, completely useless.

So after the failed mission we decided to go back to Harry and Louis' room.

I was a little down-trodden by the obvious failure and I guess it was noticeable as Louis came over to me and put his arm around me "Come on, Love!" He nudged me slightly with his side as the rest of the boys came to sit around us. "We will get the head thingy before the opening ceremony! Just you wait!"

"This might have seemed like a loss but it is just another step that we had to take on the path to victory!" Niall piped up.

We all gave him a strange look "Wow, mate. That was deep." Zayn laughed, causing all of us to laugh as well.

And that's how we spent the night. Laughing and talking.

Now, I'm not going to lie and say I was a massive fan of One Direction but tonight I was able to see them, not the world famous boy band them, but the real teenage boys they were.

And you know what? That was great.

*****

Okay so I based this chapter off an episode of Make it or Break it because I thought it would be a really good and interesting way for them to bond and get to know each other :)

Also sorry that it took so long for me to put the chapter up! I have been working on some stuff for school recently that has taken up ALL of my time and I you are reading any of my other stories then you would know that I haven't been able to update any of those either :( but I will probably be able to update as soon as possible!!!
