The Last Direction (Third Book to 'The Daughters')

Surprising the Girls

*Alex's POV*

*Concert Time*

The girls and I just finished our third song of the night and they still haven't spotted Sophia or Eleanor. Or if they did, they must have thought they were seeing things. Anyway, Our dads are about to start their part of the surprise, so hopefully everything goes well.

"Wow, I love that song." Annemarie said to the crowd as soon as we finished the song.

"Not as much as Jamie and I love surprises." I said receiving confused looks from Annemarie, Jessica, and Jamie.

"What are you talking about?" Annemarie asked.

"Just sit down and relax." Jamie said happily, as she pointed the the stools that magically appeared behind them.

"What's going on?" Jessica asked.

By this time the whole crowd was silent, trying to figure out what was going on. Oh boy, are they in for a surprise.

"Well, stop asking us what's going on or what we're talking about and let us explain, then maybe we'll tell you." I told them with a bit of sass.

"Well, someone's sassy tonight." Annemarie mumbled into her microphone, causing the crowd to laugh.

"Okay, so tonight we have a special surprise for friends, Annemarie, Jessica, and Emily." I started.

"To be honest, we have a surprise for all of you tonight." Jamie added.

"Yeah, we have a surprise for every last one of you that we planned literally a few hours before we came out on stage tonight." I told the crowd.

"I don't mean to interrupt, but what exactly is this surprise? I don't like the suspense." Emily asked us.

"Just sit back and relax. We're going to go get your surprise." Jamie told them as we pretended to exit the stage. We honestly just went right behind them to watch the whole surprise. I can't wait to see their faces.

Suddenly the music started playing and I couldn't stop smiling.

"EVERYONE PLEASE WELCOME TO THE STAGE ONE DIRECTION!" I yelled in excitement right before our fathers appeared on singing.

"[Zayn]

Your hand fits in mine like it's made just for me

But bear this in mind, it was meant to be

And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me..."

I don't think they recognized the song at first, but as soon as Zayn started singing, I saw the three of them sit up straight.

"[Liam]

I know you've never loved the crinkles by your eyes when you smile

You've never loved your stomach or your thighs, the dimples in your back at the bottom of your spine

But I'll love them endlessly

[Zayn and Liam]

I won't let these little things

Slip out of my mouth

But if I do

It's you

Oh it's you

They add up to

I'm in love with you

And all these little things"
