That Smile (A Niall Horan Fan Fiction)

Chapter 3: Lauren Horan

Lauren still couldn't get over the fact that her roommate and new found best friend knew One Direction and was dating Harry Styles. Well, Sammy claims that they aren't dating, but everyone seems to think they are. And it's not like they won't end up together someday, whenever that may be.

She couldn't help but feel like the ultimate fan girl. She was about to meet all of the guys and she couldn't even contain herself.

Earlier that day, right after her, Elyse, and Sammy had sat down for lunch in the dining hall Sammy's phone rang. It was Harry. And if that wasn't enought to almost make Lauren pass out, simply because the girl next to her was talking to the Harry Styles on the phone, Sammy asked if they could all go to their final concert in the United States and LA for the Take Me Home Tour.

And he said yes.

Even though they were no where close to being done eating, Lauren and Elyse rushed out of the dining hall, Sammy scrambing behind, and back to their dorm. After all, they only had a few hours to pick out the best outfit for the night.

After much debate Lauren settled on black v-neck tucked into a hot pink hi-low skirt, paired with black gladiator sandals. She didn't want it to make it look like she had spent nearly 30 minutes in front of the closet.

After figuring out what to wear, she crowded the bathroom and fixed her hair and makeup. Before they went outside to wait for the van, she spritzed herself with her best perfume.

And that was where she was now. She was anxiously standing with Sammy and Elyse outside of their residence hall, waiting for Harry to come and get them and take them to the van filled with the other members of One Direction.

Lauren felt as if her heart was about to stop as she saw someone coming closer to them. Sammy was grinning and so was he. It was Harry Styles in the flesh.

"Sammy!" He exclaimed. He came over to her and picked her roommate up and swung her around and kissed her cheek. Lauren thought that she would be jealous, but upon seeing how darn cute Sammy and Harry were together, she wasn't at all. She was just eager to shake his hand and meet the rest of them.

"Harry, these are my roommates." She motioned to the two girls hanging behind. Harry grinned. "That's Lauren," she pointed to Lauren. "And that's Elyse. They're from Texas."

"Well howdy, loves." He went over to them and hugged each of them. "Great to meet you and glad you could come to night. The rest of the lads are in the car and are eager to meet you."

"Okay," Lauren said weakly. They set off down the path and Elyse punched her arm and Lauren looked at her with a face that said 'I know! I can't believe this is real!'

They reached a black van and Harry opened the door. Lauren's stomach was in knots. She was met with the remaining four faces of her favorite boy band.

"Lads, I want you to meet to two very pretty ladies. Lauren and Elyse. That's Lauren and that's Elyse."

"Hi Lauren!" Niall shouted, she immediatly caught his eye.

"Hi," Lauren said shyly.

"Come on, you can come over and sit next to me." Niall said enthusiastically, Lauren wondered if she had died and gone to heaven. She also figured if she wasn't dead yet, she was about to be.

"Alright," she climbed in, heart beating rapidly. Zayn had already invited Elyse to sit next to him and Harry was helping Sammy in the van. Niall patted the open seat next to him and Lauren sat down. She grabbed the seatbelt and strapped herself in next to Niall. Niall smiled and held out his hand.

"Nice to meet you!" Lauren shook it.

"Nice to meet you too."

"So, tell me about yourself."
