As I expected, I dominated in fifa and I even made the boys on my team surprised.

"You're really good!" They'd say, "How did you do that?!"

I'd simply reply with "A good fifa player doesn't share their secrets," and laugh it off as if they said nothing.

Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.

I slipped my phone from my pocket and checked my messages.

Mom: miss you sweetie!! How's NY?

Me: miss you too! It's amazing!!

Alyssa: Hey!

Alyssa: where are you? Wanna hang out?

Me: I'm in the boys room, we're playing fifa! You should come!

Alyssa: sure, room #?

Me: I don't remember the number, it's at the very end of the hall on the left on our floor. The VERY last door.

Alyssa: be there in like 5 minutes :)

"Is it okay if Alyssa comes to hang?" I ask rhetorically. I knew they'd say yes.

"Of course!" They all yelled, in unison, after I asked.

Seconds later there was a knock at the door. Expecting it to be Alyssa, I opened it, only to find a young teenage girl with purple hair standing in the hall.

"Um.. Is this Niall Horan's room?" She asked quietly. She was shaking.

"Yeah, do you wanna meet him?" I asked.

"Really?"

"Yes." I smiled at her, she was so surprised by my saying that.

"Please, I'd love to!"

"Niall, come to the door, someone wants to meet you!" I said, running in the room and grabbing him by the arm before dragging him to the door quickly.

Giggling, Niall said "who is it?" Before opening the door and exclaiming "oh, hi!" And pulling the girl into a hug.

"What's your name?" He asked. The girl had covered her mouth with her hands and her eyes were wider than the Grand Canyon.

"N-Nina."

"Aw that's a pretty name!"

"Thank you! By the way, I love your song 'Half A Heart.'"

Half a Heart? That's one of One Direction's songs.. Probably just a coincidence.(A/N, idk if you remember but she loves 1D's music but has never seen the boys before.)

"Thank you! It means a lot." He smiled and hugged her again. "Do you want to take a picture?"

"Oh my gosh, really?"

"Yeah, of course!"

She pulled out her phone and I spoke up, "do you want me to take the picture?" She nodded and I took the phone. She told Niall about a pose where they did something called a 'stage kiss', and before they did it she asked "are you okay with that?" I said yes, wondering why she asked that. I snapped a few pictures and she started thanking Niall and crying. For her, I started videoing, and I videoed them hugging and him holding up a love heart before signing a notebook she brought and saying goodbye. I then ended the video and handed the girl back her phone.

"I hope your relationship goes well, thank you for this." She smiled an ran down the hall.

Relationship?

Oh god..

"Relationship, huh?" Niall chuckled from behind me as Alyssa walked up.

"Who was that?"

"A fan."

"Oh, cool! She seemed sweet."

We reentered the room and spent a few hours just hanging out before the boys had an unexpected meeting with management.(a/n I really wanted to be dumb and put 'an unexpected meeting with joHN CENA *da da da da* but I decided not to)

Alyssa and I went back to the room and talked for a while.

"Mel?"

"Yeah Al?"

"Can I tell you something?"

"Of course."

"You are my best friend."

"And you, mine."

"And I haven't told anyone this."

"Yeah?"

"My doctor, before I came here, told me something." I was immediately worried, sitting up in bed and turning to her.

"Continue.."

"He thinks.." She choked in her words.

"Take your time. It's okay if you need some."

She took a deep breath before saying, "they think I have cancer."

I started bawling. I jumped from the bed and grabbed her, pulling her into a tight hug and whispering "it's okay, you'll be okay." She started crying as well.

"I should have told you earlier. I'm sorry."

"No, you told me when you were ready and that's what matters. Is it for sure?"

"I'm getting an MRI when we get back to Rhode Island." She wiped some tears, mascara running down her face quickly.

"It'll be okay. We'll make it through this together, okay?"

"Okay."
