Chapter 5

---

It was finally Friday. I was currently driving my parents to the airport. They have no idea how long they will be gone. That's what I hate about these trips. It all depends on how long their clients need them and where they live. Sometimes they have to go all the way to America. It was really tough on me as a kid. I seen Niall looking at me from the side of my view. I looked over and he gave me a reassuring smile. He knew how hard I worked this morning on just picking my outfit to impress Della, who we are conveniently picking up from the airport.

Eventually I picked out a nice cream colored lace tank, jean jacket, black skinnys, and some cream colored biker boots with studs. I put my hair in a side braid. Maddy insisted that I looked fine. Yeah, fine. Compared to Della I look like a monkey that was dressed by a five year old. Fantastic.

"We're here," I said looking at a relived Maddy in the backseat squished between my parents.

Once we got out of the car Niall, Maddy and I helped my parents with their bags. We sat at the chairs.

"Attention, flight 43 to London leaves in ten minutes. Flight 43 to London leaves in ten minutes."

"I guess that means we better get going," My Dad said.

I gave both if them hug and added a kiss on the cheek for them. Niall followed with two if his famous 'Horan Hugs'. Then Maddy.

"I'm going to miss you guys," I said.

"We'll be back before you know it." My Mom said. "See you in a bit!"

"Oh and also, Sammie is coming home from camp tomorrow at 6 in the evening." Dad said. Sammie would be my little sister. I shouldn't say little, I guess she's just younger. She's 13 years old. People always say that their siblings are so annoying. I don't et it though. Sammie is more my friend than my sister. Even with the six year age difference. Like they say; sisters for chance, friends by choice. "You have to pick her up at the bus stop." I nodded.

I watched them walk until they were out of sight.

"So when is Della going to be here?" Maddy asked.

"She actually just texted me," Niall says. "She said they plane landed and she is looking for me now and," he squinted his eyes at his phone. "Never mind."

"Niall! Niall! Is that you?" I looked out into the crowd and seen Della. The Della. She was dress head to toe in complete glamour. Her heels clacked against the hard floor as she made her way over.

"Honey you know your not supposed to yell my name like that in public."

"It's not my fault I missed my Pookie Bear!" She said wrapping her arms around him.

Maddy let out laugh but quickly covered it. I looked at her and her face was turning red. She snorted really loud.

They pulled away from the hug and looked at her.

"I just seen this guy with the strangest hat on." She said looking in a different direction.

Niall looked in the direction.

Della gave us glares.

Well like a hard stare.

I shrugged it off.

"Well I'm Abi." I waved at her. "It's to meet you! You were my role model growing up and I can't believe I'm finally-"

I got cut off. "Oh your Abi." She rolled her eyes. "You know the fans talk about you a lot?"

I looked at Niall who didn't seem to notice her eye roll.

"I guess." I said.

"Well that won't be happening anymore thanks to me." She smiled. Am I supposed to thank her? What.

I forgot what fame does to some people.

"Lets get going then." Niall said.

------------------------------------------

"Niall! How many times have I told you not to eat things like that! It's extremely bad for you!"

Niall cautiously took the spoon of frozen yogurt away front his lips.

"Frozen yogurt isn't that bad for you." Maddy said a hint of annoyance hitting her voice.

"Being famous, we have to watch out figures." She stated.

I watched Maddy as she swiftly spun the bowl of yogurt towards her self.

"Good thing I'm not." She sarcastically smirked. "Hey Abi, do you want some? We're not famous so it doesn't matter."

"I'm fine." I gave her a look telling her to stop. She jut shrugged it off.

"So Della, Niall. How did you two meet?" I asked.

Maddy nodded licking the spoonful of ice cream.

Dell gave her a disgusted look.

"Well," Niall answered. "We both work for Syco, and they had a huge company wide New Years party and long story short, we started to talk, and here we are." Niall smiled.

He turned his head towards Della and kissed her cheek.

Something as little as a three second show of affection made my heart burn. I swallowed hard. Maddy looked at me as they continued being all lovey toward each other.

She coughed and they blushed refocusing on us.

My phone vibrated on the table.

Text From Jakob;

How the "date" going?"

Text to Jakob;

Horrible. Della is so self absorbed. I have no idea what Niall sees in her to be honest.

Text from Jakob;

Sorry babe. :(

Can this just end.
