Just a replacement (one direction)

Chapter 3.

"Boy, wake up, hello boy, we arrived!" Shit I feel asleep, I always fall asleep in cars and it's really awkward when I'm with other people, because they have to wake me up, and I can tell you, that's hard.

"I'm sorry I fell asleep, we arrived you said? So were did we arrive and what am I going to do now?" I say confused, I'm not really sharp when I just woke up.

"We arrived at the house of One Direction, your new house, Louis, Zayn, Harry and Liam are waiting inside. And I'm going to give you a tip, stay back a bit, they're very worried about Niall and I don't think they like it that you're replacing Niall."

"Well uhm Thanks I think." I say, still a bit confused. I step out the car and walk to the house, the house seems very big, it has white walls and lights shine trough the windows even though it's 5 a.m. I don't have to ring the door bell, when I walk towards the door a woman opens it.

"Welcome Niall, the boys are waiting for you in the living room, I hope they left a bit of food for you." The woman says.

Do I look so much like Niall that she thinks I'm him? Or does she just pretend, like I'll do the next few months? I have no idea.... And how am I supposed to find the living room, I've never been in this house and the hall I just entered is bigger than my bedroom. I walk towards the sound of gaming, I suppose that's how the boys spended their time, waiting for me. At the end of the hallway which I'm walking trough, are saloon doors, I'm loving this house already, it's my style. From the outside the house seemed very designed clean, but the hall and hallway are very colourful, they have caracter, like people really live in this house. The living room I just entered is perfect, it's saloon style, I see a pooltable, some round tables and a bar. In the couches in the tvcorner of the room I see 4 boys, I guess they're THE boys.

"ahum" I clear my throat to catch the boys attention "I'm Jake"

They inmediately stop the game and look at me, Harry is looking at me like he hates me, Louis looks like I just murdered someone and Zayn looks very... i don't really know.... surprised I think. Liam looks very sad, I think he've cried a big part of the evening.

"Niall was right when he wrote how much you looked like him" Zayn says, still looking surprised "Come here we'll explain you some more and we can get to know eachother. I'm Zayn btw but I think you already know that, you're little sister is a directioner I heard."

"Uhm yes she is, how do you know?" I ask Zayn when I sit on a very comfortable sofa. I'm glad at least one of these four acts normal to me.

"Niall wrote it down in his letter, shall I just tell what happened to us and Niall lately? then you'll understand a bit more about why we're all acting the way we are." as Zayn tells this I take a better look at the guys I'm going to live with for a while.

"So since three months the hate we get has increased, we always got a bit hate but we just ignored it, those people hating were nothing compared to our directioners. Harry and Louis always got hate because of Larry, it's a thing were people say they're gay. I get hate because I smoke and apparently I'm a terrorist because of my religion. And Liam doesn't really get hate, except for people calling him the nerd and boring, but he doesn't get a lot attention. But Niall... in the beginning we joked in an interview because Niall eats a lot. But people have made that joke into hate. They call Niall 'fat' and he always had crooked teeth before he got braces, people called him 'the ugly one'. And if you just can ignore it, the hate is something you can handle, you just take it with your fame and the love you do get because of what you do. But it was hard for Niall, the hate got more, he lost friends and he lost faith in himself." Zayn stops for a while to take a deep breath, "but Niall didn't share his feelings with anyone, he stopped eating, we slowly started to notice but when we asked about it he said he was feeling fine, just a bit tired because we had a busy life, nobody questioned that because we all understood him, we were in a middle of a tour and that takes a lot of energy. Two weeks ago he told us that he wish he could just take a break for a while, but that he wasn't able to because we had so much to do. We were all like, yeah sometimes I wish that too. Nobody knew he was more serious than anyone of us had ever been about it. Until today, today we noticed a letter on Nialls bed, when we wanted to wake him up, we had to go for a photoshoot. Do you want to read that letter?" Zayn hands me over a letter and than goes over to Liam to hug him. I was so into the story that I didn't realise he started to cry.

Hey lads,

You know I've told you I wanted a break, well I'm going to take a break. I can't stand all of this hate any longer, It hurts me more than it hurts you guys. If I don't take a break now, I don't know how much longer I want to live this life. Don't worry about me, I'll get back to you guys when I feel better, till then don't try to find me. I changed my phone number and I'm somewhere on earth were nobody knows me. Because I don't want to stop you four from living your dream I've found someone who can take my place for a while. He isn't a singer but he looks a lot like me, the fans won't notice the difference. Please pick him up at 00:00: 15 Headley Avenue, London. His name is Jake Smiths. Please by nice to him, it't not his fault I decided to take a break, he's just here to keep the gossips away.

I love you guys very much, I'll contact you guys when I feel like it's better again. Don't worry.

Bye, Niall, always your mate.

Wow, I'm shocked, I now understand the looks Louis and Harry gave me when I walked in, they just lost their friend, without a warning and then I walk in, a boy who looks excactly like Niall and who's here to take his place for a while. "I'm sorry guys, I didn't know the hate hurts so much. I understand that you won't like me, I just walked in, knowing nothing about you guys, to take the place of a friend who just left you guys. I'm really sorry."

"I'm sorry too Jake, I don't think I looked really nice when you just walked in, but it's 5 a.m. and I think we all need a bit sleep. I'll show you Nialls room, he left a letter for you too, you can sleep there. We'll talk again tomorrow." Louis says, and I can see he truly means it, maybe he's nicer that I thought.

When I walk after Louis to Nialls room I notice how big this house really is, every door I pass has a different color and I think you could filll a whole rainbow with it. I try to remember where we go because I'm definitelly not the best in finding my way, I always get lost.

"Here it is, Nialls room, we'll wake you up tomorrow." Louis starts to walk away when I stop him.

"Liam is Nialls best friend, isn't he? He seems really hurt because his friend didn't tell him about his problems." I see Louis face turn pale. "Oh shit I'm so sorry I just arrived her and I already try to understand you guys. Sorry boy, see ya tommorow."

"It's okay, just don't do this again, and yes you're right, they were best friends." Louis walks away and I walk into Nialls room, his door is green. The room is big, The walls are dark green with a grey shade over it. In the middle of the room is a big bed and suddenly I realise I tired I am. When I pull out my clothes and jump on the bed I notice the letter Louis told me about. I think I looked like I just saw a ghost when I was reading the letter, this is what it said:
