Turning Tables (A Louis Tomlinson Fanfiction)

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

Darby's POV:

"Darby Masterson," my name was called and I rose from my chair. I walked up on to the stage and took my diploma, shook hands with my principal, and turned to the crowd and smiled. Camera flashes went off in all different directions, but my eyes were fixed on my mother, my step father, and my step brother Niall. Before him and his band went off on their world tour, he spent some time home in Ireland to be with us. I turned from the crowd in front of me and moved back to my seat. After fourteen years in school, I'm finally graduated from High School. Hallelujah!

After the ceremony, I talked with all of my friends and said goodbye to them. "What if I never see you again?" My best friend Sky asked me with tears in her eyes. "Babe we still have the summer! And we are going to the same University in the fall." I remind her for the thousandth time. "Oh yeeaaaah." She smiled at me. "Yeah you idiot." I laughed at her and twirled my fingers through her long curly blonde hair.

I met Sky in my first year of Secondary School when I moved here, and we've been best friends ever since. She's a few inches taller than me and has a nice skinny, but not too skinny body. One of the only problems being her best friend is that all of the boys want to date her, and only thought of me as her short, quiet, shy, awkward best friend. Unlike Sky, I'm not very tall and I'm not very skinny. People always say I'm no where near being fat, but no one ever says I'm skinny either. I'm just plain old Darby, nothing special at all. Plus like I said, I'm very quiet and kinda shy, and a little bit awkward. Especially around guys. On that first day of school, Sky came up and talked to me. I never would have went up to her. She introduced me to her friends and we all just got along.

"Darbs, over here!" Niall called to me in his thick Irish accent, waving to me. I hurried over as fast as I could in these stupid heels and hugged him. "You look beautiful sis." He smiled at me and then chuckled a little. "And hey, you're finally as tall as me!" Niall gave me a devilish smirk and I hit him playfully on the arm. "Shut up." I giggled hugging him again. "Hun, you look beautiful!" My mom squealed holding hands with Bobby, my step dad. "You really do Darby." Bobby smiled down at me and they pulled me in for a group hug. "Thanks guys!" I smiled when I pulled away.

I said my final goodbyes to all of my friends and took all of my final pictures. The four of us got into Bobby's car and we drove back to the Horan-Masterson house. I changed out of my short blue dress into my pj's and went down stairs to join my family for a cup of tea. They said that they had a graduation present for me. "So are you ready for your present Darbs?" Niall asked with a huge smile on his face. "I told you all not to get me anything but I guess I'm ready." I smiled back. "Well I was thinking," Niall started, "If you want to, you can come on tour for the summer with the band." Niall jumped up and reached out his arms with a big smile. My mouth dropped. I get to go on tour with my brother for two months? "Niall, oh my god that's amazing!!" I squealed and jumped up to hug him. "Plus you can take one friend with you so you can have some 'girl power' their." My mom added put air quotes around girl power. "This is amazing! When do we leave? I have to go pack! I've gotta call Sky!" I jumped around with excitement, not knowing what to do first. "Relax Darbs, we leave Monday. That's plenty of time to pack." Niall laughed. "Two days? Two days! I have to pack for a two month trip in two days!? I have to go get started. And I still have to call Sky!" I squealed for a second before running up the stairs to get packing. I found my phone, and automatically called Sky.

"Hey Darbs! What's up?" Sky's cheerful voice rang through the phone. Her and Niall are the only people on this earth that call me 'Darbs'. "I have to ask you something." I said back in a sing song tone. "What? What is it? " she asked kind of nervously. "I'm going on tour with Niall for the summer, and you're invited!" I quickly pulled the phone away from my ear, preparing myself for the high pitched scream that came through the phone. "Oh my god are you serious!? Eeeeeee! When do we leave?" Sky squealed through the phone. "Monday!" I squealed back. On the other end, I heard a thud. She must have dropped her phone. "I have two days to get ready?! I have to start right now! Oh and we're going on a shopping trip tomorrow missy. I'll be at your house by noon. Okay Darbs, byeeeee!" Sky extended out the E before quickly hanging up.

I checked the time on my phone and stood up. It's 9:00pm now, I guess I'll start packing. I smiled to myself before heading to the basement to get out my purple suitcases. "Packing so soon? Why?" Niall helped me carry my bags upstairs. I need to get some stuff packed now or else I'll get anxiety, and die." I stated to him and he laughed at me. "What it's true!" I turned around to face him. "Whatever Darbs." Niall chuckled behind me.

I placed my two suitcases on my bed and stared into my closet. What do I need to pack? "Oh and Darbs?" Niall brought me out of my thoughts with this question. He was leaning against the doorframe and rubbing the back of his neck. "Yes Nialler?" I turned around and leaned against the wall. "The rest of the boys are coming to stay here this weekend before the show here on Monday, then we fly overnight to America." I nodded my head, but Niall wasn't finished yet. "While they're here, I'll make sure Louis leaves you alone." Niall crossed his arms with a smirk. "Oh my god, I forgot he was in One Direction. Ugh I hate him." I rolled my eyes and turned back to my closet. "Whatever babe." Niall laughed and left the room. "I do!" I yelled after him. Ever since I met the rest of the boys, Louis and I never liked each other. He's sassy, sarcastic, conceited, and immature. I honestly can't stand him. I'm going to have to spend two months with him? I'm just going to have to ignore him. At least I'm going shopping with Sky tomorrow so I won't have to see Louis for very long. Well tomorrow anyway.

"We'll that's enough for today." I said to my self with a yawn. I looked over at my clock that read 12:00am. I put my suitcases over on the floor in the corner of my room so it wasn't in the way. I plugged my phone into the charger and laid it on my bedside table. I turned of my lamp and snuggled under the covers, soon drifting into a deep sleep.

*well here is the first chapter to my next story. I kind of hit writers block on the other two so they might be on hold for a little while. This first chapter isn't very exciting yet, but it will get better. Okay byeeee
