Chapter 1: The Meeting and Packing

________________________________

Heyyyyyyyo! So I just wanted to tell you guys a bit about the main character, Maggie, before you read.

Her name is Maggie Lokiths, pronounced low-ki-ths (the i is pronounced like how it is in the word kit, and 'ths' sounds like thousandths.) She has dirty blonde hair, blue eyes and pale skin. She's 20 years old. As you know from the intro, when she was 7, her grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer and when she was 9, she died. Her mother is now diagnosed with it as well. She goes fishing for a charity she made so she can sell the fish and use the money to donate it to finding a cure for all different types of cancer.

This WHOLE fanfic is dedicated to those who have or have had cancer or have known those who have/have had cancer, or even passed away from it. Stay strong<3

ONTO THE FANFIC DOLPHIN NINJAS!!!

Chapter 1: The Meeting

*Maggie's POV*

I walked down the dock to my deep-sea fishing boat, the 'Princess Maggie'. I grabbed my bait pail and started the engine.

"Hey! Where are you going Mags?" My best friend Ruby called out, running up to me. She lived next door so she must've seen me leaving.

"I'm going about four miles out and see what I can catch. If I catch anything I'll-" I was cut off by Ruby smiling.

"Sell it for your cancer charity like the amazing person you are, I know, I know, want me to come? I'd love to join." She finished.

"And I'd love for you to come!" I replied, so she climbed over the rail and untied the rope that connected us to the dock. I inhaled the familiar smell of saltwater and headed out.

*Liam's POV*

The boys and I walked down the hallway to Uncle Simon's office.

As we walked in, a million reasons for being at the meeting ran through my mind: Are we canceling the break in our tour? Are our families safe? Do Zayn and Louis have to break up with their girlfriends because of management?

Uncle Simon's voice interrupted my thoughts.

"LOUIS! Put Niall down!" I glanced over my shoulder to see Lou shaking and upside-down Niall up and down, shouting something about giving him his phone back and not texting an embarrassing picture to Eleanor.

I smirked, then sat down on the comfy couch in front of Uncle Simon's desk.

"So, Uncle Simon, what's up? Why did you call us down here?" Zayn nervously asked, sitting down next to me. I could see him out of the corner of my eye, quickly looking at a picture of Perrie every few seconds.

I guess he thought he would have to break up with her too. Hopefully not, but that's just stalker-ish.

"Well boys, first of all, I'm not your uncle, you can stop calling me that-" He started to say.

"WHAT?! MY WHOLE LIFE HAS BEEN A LIE!!" Louis cried, huddling up in a ball and rolling back and forth.

He then jumped up and sniffled.

"You will ALWAYS be our Uncle Simon. Or face the wrath of the carrots!" Lou proclaimed.

"Fine, fine. I've decided to do another charity event, since I know you like helping people that need money and things like that. Sort of like Red Nose Day. This time, it'll be for cancer. You're all going on a six month boat trip with a young girl around your age named Maggie. You'll learn about her charity program that she started and runs. It's called, 'Fishing for a Cure', and it helps people suffering from all different types of cancers like leukemia and breast cancer. No, Harry, you can't flirt with her." Harry grunted.

"Anyways, for these next six months, you'll be fishing and singing in different countries. You have two weeks to pack and visit your families. Your plane goes to Madagascar to start the trip on December first at three in the morning. Don't worry, it's very warm there. Alright, I have to go, but before I do, any questions?" Uncle Simon finished.

When the initial shock wore off we blandly shook our heads no and ran out to have at least five more minutes' time of being with our families. And packing time.

Once we got to the limo, we sat in silence.

"Wow. Almost no flirting for six months?!" Harry exclaimed.

"Yeah-except for the flirting part. You'll break the rules sometime. Cool!" Louis did a fist pump and the driver headed for our hotel so we could pack and go home to pack even MORE and be with our families.

*Louis' POV*

Six months without Eleanor?! This can't be happening...right? I took my blanket off my bed and then crept into the kitchen of the apartment Zayn and I were sharing. He was facing towards the sink.

I snuck up on him and wrapped him in my blanket, knocking him down to the floor and sitting on him. He struggled for a few seconds. Once he calmed down I dragged him to my walk-in closet.

He's really HEAVY!! Unraveling him, he looked around, scared and muttered, "So. Many. Stripes."

Telling him my plan, he nodded in agreement.

+2 WEEKS LATER+

*Maggie's POV*

Today, is finally the day where One Direction will join me on a 6 month deep-sea fishing trip for my charity! I'm not a huge fan, but I'm really excited that I can raise a lot of money.

I hugged my mom, trying to memorize everything about her hugs. She squeezed me tight, putting the crook of her neck onto the back of my shoulder, and I swear we acted like we were never going to see each other again.

We said our teary goodbye's and I walked out of the hospital. I started the drive home to my little apartment. My mom also had breast cancer.

I parked my jeep in the public garage and jogged inside. Jumping into the shower, I let the hot water wash away my worries. When I finished, I dried my dirty blonde hair and wrapped it in a towel.

Rummaging through my outfits, I ended up picking out a teal tank top with pink block letters spelling 'P!nk' (I'm a big fan of her), ripped jean shorts, and sneakers just like Niall's.

Wrapping up the last of my clothes and hair accessories, I took one last look at my cute little home, taking in it's bright yellow walls and lime green couches, and closed the door.

Time to meet One Direction.
