Then it hit me. I never asked when we're going.
"Wait, when are we leaving? And when are we coming back?" I questioned.
"Well... Tomorrow. And we're coming back three days later. Today's Sunday so we'll be there Monday to Thursday." Eleanor answered.
Wait... What? Tomorrow? I still have to pack and prepare myself for going on a freaking camping trip with the most famous boy band in the world. Oh god Christine's gonna kill me.
"Okay. Are you gonna pick me up or should I drive here?" I asked. I'm the kind of person who forgets to get details, and I don't want anything to go wrong with this.
"I'll pick you up at 9 and we'll come back here and wait for the boys to come" Louis replied.
"No. I'm picking her up at 9 and then we'll come here." Eleanor shot back before I had the chance to agree to Louis offer.
"Why do you want to pick her up so bad?" Louis asked.
"We'll I need some time to get to know her better. It's a girl thing." She said.
"But she's MY best friend so I should pick her up." He fought back with.
"NO. I'm picking her up and that's final." Eleanor said.
"Fine." Louis said with a humph and stormed out of the room like a two year old.
"SEE YA TOMORROW. IT WAS NICE SEEING YOU." He yelled as he ran up the stairs.
He's such a child. I swear he's never going to grow up. That's one of the best parts about Louis: he's so carefree and childish. Some people say it's bad, how much of a little kid he still is. But honestly, I think it's a great characteristic to have. He's serious in the situations he needs to be, but the other times, he's so fun loving.
"Well that was fun." I laughed
"Ya. It was so nice finally meeting you. I'm so glad your coming on this camping trip. When I heard Perrie couldn't come I almost passed out. I could NOT be the only girl there. I'm beyond happy your coming." She said thankfully.
"Haha well this will be fun. I can't wait to meet the other boys." I said.
"You'll like them a lot. They grow fond of people fast. You'll fit right in, I promise" she said.
This made me feel ten times better. When they first mentioned this trip I was really nervous. I mean... I don't even know most of them. But this reassurance from Eleanor calmed me.
"That's good. So nine tomorrow?" I asked just to double check.
"Yup. Here, what's your phone number? Ill text you before I leave. Oh and your address." She said.
Once we exchanged our information, I headed towards the door to leave. Eleanor followed me to the front door and have me a quick hug before I departed.
"See ya tomorrow!" She waved as I opened the door to my car.
"Yup!" I replied happily.
As I drive back to my apartment, I can only imagine how angry Christine will be with me. She barely even wanted me to go see Louis, and now I'm going on a camping trip with him, his girlfriend, AND band members.
It's okay, I think to myself. Your a grown woman, you can make decisions for yourself.
The ride from Louis house to my apparent is short, so in a matter of minutes I've arrived. As I park the car and get out, I realize that I must have been at Louis's house for longer than I thought considering the fact the sun was starting to set. I just stood there for a minute, looking at the sky.
It's so pretty when the sun is setting. The sky turns an array of colors: punk, blue, purple, and so many hues in between.
Before I get too caught up, I force my feet to make their way to the entrance.
As I walk in, I'm immediately blasted with the strong air conditioning is the lobby. I walk to the elevator and hit the button 3 and wait for the doors to close. The ride feels like forever, probably because I want to get back to Christine so bad. The doors suddenly open and I race out of the elevator and towards our room.
I shuffle through my bag and find the door key, put it in the knob and push the door open.
"YOU'RE BACK!" I hear Christine yell as she runs up from the couch and to me.
"Ya." I say ever so casually.
"Well." She said impatiently.
"Well what?" I questioned, even though I knew exactly what she wanted to know. I feel like making her mad this time.
"Oh, you know" I said waving my hand as to say no big deal. I bit my lip to stop from smirking.
"No, I don't know. TELL ME!" She said, definitely getting frustrated.
"Guess." Then I sauntered off to the kitchen, I never had supper.
Chris followed, obviously getting annoyed with me.
"So what did you have for supper?" I asked her hoping there was some left over I could heat up.
"Well, I guess you will never know till you tell me what happened with LOUIS TOMLINSON." She exclaimed.
I turned around and have her and "oh, really" look then opened the fridge and saw the chicken and rice she ate in containers right in the front.
I grabbed them and shoves them in her face. Once I thought they had been her face for a sufficient amount of time I took the tops off and put the containers in the microwave.
"Arrrrg" said Chris.Apparently she is now a pirate. "Chris the Pirate" has a ring to it.
I realized that I got her ticked off enough and that I need her happy to agree with me going on the camping trip.
I turned around to face her and put a smile on my face.
"It went well. I even met his girlfriend, love her by the way, and I was invited to hang out with them...again" I said.
Chris raises an eyebrow at this.
I let out a sigh. "Yeah we are gonna get together tomorrow," I said then whispered, "Until Thursday."
"What the hell?" she said.
"It's kinda, sorta, maybe, possibly a camping trip" I said my voice really high when I said the last bit.
"WHAT?" She exclaimed.
"Yeah and with the other One Direction boys, too" blurted out.
If it was possible her eyes got even wider. I didn't wait to her out what she had to say, I ran up the stairs to my room and screamed over my shoulder to her, "Gotta pack."
When I got up there I realized I forgot the chicken and rice downstairs.
Damn.
I ran to the staircase then slid down the railing. I ran to the kitchen and grabbed the food, utensils, and napkins then turned around and realized that Christine was still looking at the same place I was standing before with her mouth wide open. I waved my hand in front of her face. Nothing. Shrugging I scurried up to my room and placed the food on my bedside table.
Eating as I packed I found a duffle bag which I filled with shorts and shirts that I didn't mind if they got dirty. I put in undergarments and my toiletries next. Then I put in a pair of flip flops because I would wear my sneakers tomorrow. I found some bug spray and sunscreen and added those to the bag. I realized that I didn't know where we were camping.
Because of this I don't know if there will be public rest rooms or not. Just in case I also added a roll of toilet paper.
I really hope that I would not have to use it. I crossed my fingers and whispered,"Please have real bathrooms, please."
I ran around my room and the rest of the house finding other things to add to the bag like a drawstring bag I might need, flashlights, money etc.
I put the duffle bag by the door and decided to check on Christine. She was still in the same position. I wondered how far I could go before she moved. I poked her back then her face, nothing. I took a cookie and shoved it in her face then stuffed it in my mouth bearly chewing before swallowing.
Lightbulb.
I went to the fridge and pulled out the whipped cream, snickering.
First I sprayed some in my mouth because after I would probably be to busy running for my life to eat some.
Then I walked up to her. One. Two. Three. I spayed the whipped cream all over her face.
She let out a scream if surprise and looked me in the eye. She had on her "I'm gonna kill you" face.
I see that face a lot.
She charged at me and took the whipped cream from me and sprayed it in my face. And down my shirt.
"So I guess this means your okay with me going on the camping trip?" I asked.
"Yeah, just be careful and don't do
anything stupid." She said.
"I'm offended Chrissy, when do I ever do anything stupid," I said till I realized what words came out of my mouth. Christine and I burst out laughing.
I do stupid things all the time.
"Well, see you in the morning Chris." I said before going upstairs.
Because of the whipped cream I had to take another shower, "but at least I won't have to take one in the morning" I told myself.
After I finished my nightly routine I set the alarm clock on my phone and plugged it into its charger before I climbed into bed. I got comfortable and let sleep overtake me.
