Meet and Greet

Chapter 5

As I woke up I did my daily routine and washed my face, put chapstik on (I have a weird obsession with chapstik, don't judge)  and walked out to the kitchen to look at my phone. My mom doesn't let me keep my phone in my room over night because she thinks I'll melt my eyes from looking at the screen all night long. She's probably right though. I do have a tendency to look at my phone nonstop, but I don't care. 

I normally wake up early, I don't know why, so I walked bare foot down the stairs to an empty family room. I strolled into the kitchen and grabbed my phone. I didn't bother to look at it because I knew what would be on the screen. Nothing. I never get any texts or Instagram alerts or anything like that in the morning so why even bother wasting that .01% of battery to look at my lock screen. I started chuckling at myself at that last remark. I crack myself up. I probably look possessed right now but I don't care. I'm the only one up. 

I fell onto the couch with my phone in hand. I turn on Spongebob because that's kinda the only thing that's on in the morning. I laugh out loud at the stupidness of this show until my phone buzzes and startles me. I look down to see my whole lock screen filled with texts and messages from Harry, Liam, Niall, Louis, Zayn, and Mackenzie. I guess I was in some type of group message. 

All of the boys' contact names had a bunch of smiley faces and hearts after them. They also had weird names. For example, Harry was Your Curly Lover and Niall was The Leprechaun. I did that to their phones too so I shouldn't be mad. I looked at all of my social media sites and they were all hacked by the boys. I had also gained a lot of followers. Maybe the boys had posted something about Mackenzie and me. 

Once I was done with everything on social media, I decided to reply to that group message. 

We all texted each other nonstop for about an hour and I found out the boys are staying in a beach house just a couple streets away from my house for about a month and a half because they have a bunch of interviews, charity events, and parties around here. 

I felt a little rumble in my stomach and remembered that I haven't even had breakfast yet. I felt my hand vibrate again and saw that Niall was hungry too and wanted to go out to breakfast. Whoa it was like he read my mind! I all the guys responded with ''yeah I could eat." or "Hey that's what I was thinking!". I suggested we go to a little diner called Uncle Henry's and everyone agreed. 

I wrote a note to my mom and dad saying I was going out and threw some clothes on. I put on a basic blue tank top and high wasted jean shorts with my satchel. I let my long, straight blonde hair fall loosely down my back. I walked over to the boys' house because I can't drive yet. I'm the youngest one out of all of my friends because my birthday is early in the summer. 

I walk on the beach side of my house and kicked the waves as I go. This is a great way to evaluate on your life and just think. I pick up shells along the way until I find a big stick and start poking all of the jelly fish and crab I see. I'm not really sure which house is theirs so I pray I'm walking the right way. I hear my name being yelled from a couple houses away. It doesn't sound like anyone that lives here. I would know, I've lived here my whole life. My mom and dad grew up here so I haven't known anything different. I here it again but this time it is Mackenzie's voice. I turn around and see her running towards me. As soon as she caught up to me she started laughing. 

"What?" I asked.

"You are walking the wrong way. Their house is that way." She said pointing in the other direction where 2 other boys were playing in the waves. I could make out the flopping curls which was Harry but I couldn't recall who the other one was. I started walking towards their house and the soaked boys with Mackenzie.
