Pippa’s P.O.V
Today was the day I had waited months for. I was finally going to visit my best friend George’s new band mates in London.
I should probably introduce myself. I’m Pippa. My full name’s Philippa Jayne Martin. I’m average height, (five foot three) and eighteen year old best friend to George Shelley from Union J. We met when I moved to the neighbourhood aged eight, when he was nine and even though there is a two year age gap we have always been best friends.
This will be the first time since he moved to London shortly after the X factor that I’ve seen him. I’ve never met JJ, Jaymi and Josh before because George only met them and got put into the band since boot camp.
Currently, I was sat on a train traveling from Bristol to London where I would be staying for two weeks. It had been around four months since I had last seen George who had no idea I was visiting. I sat staring out of the window, watching the world fly past me as we travelled quickly towards London. Before I knew it I had arrived in London.
Grabbing my bags I made my way to the open doors of the train and stepped out onto the busy platform. I pushed my way through the crowd before stepping outside and waiting for a taxi. After about ten minutes a taxi pulled up and I climbed in, giving the driver the address to the house that George and the rest of the guys shared.
I found out that George’s house wasn’t too far from the station, about twenty minutes at the most. I got out of the taxi and pulled my stuff out of the back before paying the driver. I pulled my case up the path leading up to the house, admiring how amazing it looked, and rang the doorbell. I waited for about thirty seconds before one of the other boys answered.
“Hello?” He said looking slightly confused.
“Hi, I’m Pippa. Is George in?” I asked
“So you’re the famous Pippa he’s been telling us all about. Josh” He said snapping his fingers and pointing to himself.
“That’s me. Nice to meet you Josh” I said laughing slightly
“Come on in. Sorry he just never said you were visiting” Josh said picking up my case for me.
“Thanks and he doesn’t know I’m here” I told him.
“Oh well he’s wanted to see you for ages and the rest of us are dying to meet you” Josh said showing me into what I presumed was the living room, where two boys sat, their eyes fixed to the TV.
“Guys” Josh said but got no response.
“GUYS” He tried again louder. Still no response.
“Pippa’s here” He said and all eyes snapped in my direction.
“So you’re the girl George has not shut up about for the past four months” One of them said “I’m Jaymi by the way”
“Nice to meet you Jaymi” I said trying not to laugh as the other boy behind him was pulling faces.
“Is everything ok?” Jaymi asked.
“Yep just fine” I said before I started laughing. Jaymi turned around and burst out laughing.
“I’m JJ” He said as we heard footsteps coming down the stairs.
“Quick hide behind the sofa so we can scare George. Don’t come out until we tell you to” Jaymi said and I jumped over the sofa and listened to their conversation.
“Did I hear a girls voice?” George asked sounding confused.
“No. It might have been the TV” JJ answered stifling a laugh.
