Once Upon a Time {A One Direction Fan-Fic} ON HOLD

Once Upon a Time. . . I had to convince my friend to meet One Direction

Luna's POV

"What?  I mean, what?  I'm sorry, I thought I just heard you say you weren't going," I said.  "And Darcie, you better say, like, haha just kidding, because if you don't come with me to meet the famous boy-band we are always talking about, I will come over there and kick your butt!"  I didn't get it.  Why in the world wasn't she coming?

"Sorry Luna, but you heard me right.  I'm not going.  DON'T COME KICK MY BUTT!  I have a really really good reason, trust me.  Besides, you'll have Christy!" my (supposedly) best friend said.  Okay, she was my best friend, but seriously, I couldn't believe she didn't want to come.

"Yeah, but it won't be the same without you.  We're like, Alvin and the Chipmunks, or the Three Musketeers.  Without our Alvin, or our third Musketeer, we're just. . . the chipmunks.  Or the Two Musketeers.  And that doesn't work!" I said.  Yes, I was always this awesome.  I laughed to myself.

"Sorry.  Hey I have to go, Bee Bee finally came upstairs.  Call Christy, okay?" Darcie said, hanging up before I could reply.  My best friend was crazy about her cat Bee Bee.  Actually she was crazy about all cats, except one of her other cats, Little Buddy.  Ironically, Little Buddy was the only cat I did like.  I shook my head and dialed Christy's number.  Her phone was busy, so I turned to my laptop and logged onto email.

Hey girlie!  What's new?  Darcie just called me and told me about the tour thing.  How cool!  And you're taking me!  Yay!  The Chipmunks are back baby!

To Christy_Misty@email.com

Well, you're invited!  Haha, I tried to call but your phone was busy!  So, June first to July first, we're on tour with 1D!!  Darcie told me she wasn't coming?  We have to convince her!!  The Chipmunks can't be famous without our Alvin!!

Um. . . I can't come.  I mean, I can drop you guys off so that I can meet One Direction, but I have a really important dance recital coming up and I can't miss any practices.  Practices start?  June 3.  Sorry!  But I'm sure you can convince Darcie to come with!  You guys can be Frog and Toad, or something else that there's only two of them.  :)  Love ya sista!

:(  They're picking me up at my house in a limo.  I'm sure you can come along for the ride.  Noon?

I sighed.  Great.  I was going on tour with One Direction.  This was my dream!!  I get to meet Harry, Liam, Zayn, Louis and. .. *sigh* Niall.  Except other than the fact that Christy was coming to meet them, I was on my own.  I couldn't believe it.  I would say my dreams were coming true, but honestly, in my dreams my friends were by my side.  I thought for a minute.  How could I convince Darcie to come?

1.  Beg on my knees.  Not.  Happening.

2.  Bribe her.  Darcie was basically immune to bribes, unless I was bribing her with Harry Styles merchandise.  That woudn't work in this case because she won't come and see the actual Harry Styles, her long-time crush.

3.  Kidnap her and drag her with me.  Well. . . once she was on the tour bus, she probably wouldn't protest too much.  And she'd be easy enough to kidnap. . . but she's my best friend, and I should respect her wishes.

4.  Respect her wishes and follow your dream.  Alone.  With no one.  The Lone Ranger.  I sighed.  Fine, if I must.  Although I wouldn't stop pestering her about why, I would stop trying to make her come with.

My laptop pinged, signaling a new message.

I'm sorry I'm not coming, but you'll have a lot of fun with Christy!

To BeeBeeBaby_KITTY@email.com

Christy can't come on the tour, she'll just be there to meet them before I leave.

From BeeBeeBaby_KITTY@email.com

Well now I feel really bad!  Why can't she come?

To BeeBeeBaby_KITTY@email.com

You should, meanie butt!  She's got important dance practices that she can't miss.  Why can't you come?

From BeeBeeBaby_KITTY@email.com

So you're going by yourself?  I won't tell you. . .

To BeeBeeBaby_KITTY@email.com

If I go at all. . . Why won't you come with?

Before I got a reply my Twitter notification popped up.  I clicked on it.

@NiallOfficial: Chose the contest winner today!  Can't wait to meet @Luna_NotTheMoon!

I took a moment to laugh at my Twitter name.  Originally it was @Luna_Rose_Awesome, but Darcie had found out my password and every now and then she changed my username.  She had changed it about a week ago, but I liked this one so I had left it up.  I laughed once more, then I tweeted back.

@Luna_NotTheMoon: AH!  I can't wait to meet you either @NiallOfficial!

My laptop pinged again, Darcie must have replied.  I checked my email.  Nope.  Going back to Twitter I saw there was nothing new there either.  I sighed and wondered if my laptop was busted.  I closed out of all the windows, planning on shutting down my computer when I saw I had a chat request on FaceTime.

NiallerChickenNandos requested a call.

What the heck?  I clicked accept and prepared for the call.  Niall Horan's face showed up on my computer screen.  Ho-ly cow.  I waved.  He smiled and waved back, and then we started talking.  Soon the subject of Darcie came up and I told Niall all my ideas for convincing her to come.

"I don't tink she'd appreciate de kidnappin' part, even if you meant well," he told me in his adorable Irish accent.

"Yeah," I sighed.  "I nixed that idea.  But what the heck am I supposed to do?  I need my BFF with me!" I told him.  We had only been talking for 15 minutes, but I felt like I had known him for a while and could trust him with this.  Okay, not really, I would have told a random stranger about my situation with Darcie and Christy and the contest at this point, but it was nice that it was Niall I was talking to instead of a creepy old man.

"Well. . . I have one idea," Niall said slowly.  In exactly five minutes, I had the most perfect plan to get Darcie on that tour bus with me on June first.  

"Thanks Niall!" I said happily.

"No problem.  I've got to go, de lads are yelling at me that it's time for rehearsal.  I just wanted to meet you as soon as possible.  Bye!" he said.

"BYE!" I yelled and ended the call on his amazing smile.  Time to convince Darcie that I would die if she didn't go on the tour bus.  I kind of felt bad about this, but the plan was brilliant.  Evil, yet genius.  Great, but horrible.  Wait, that last one didn't even make sense.  Oh who cares?  No one.  Exactly.  I'm talking to myself again.  Yeah, but at least it's in your head this time.  Touche.

A/N:  Um, I'm not exactly sure how FaceTime works, so all that is made up, along with the email addresses and Luna's Twitter name and Niall's FaceTime name.  :)
