Meeting the Boys

As I finished coating my last layer of lip gloss on, I heard the loud noise of a car horn. I went out of my way to look perfect today. I felt like I really needed to impress Louis' friends. What would happen if they hated me? Then Louis would hate me too! And then I wouldn't even have a chance with him! Yeah, as if you even have a chance with him now. The logical side of my brain said. In the middle of my freaking out (and arguing with myself) I heard another loud car horn.

When I got in Louis' car, I leaned over the center console and gave him a swift kiss on the cheek. I instantly pulled away when I heard wholf-whistles and cheers. I looked to the back seat and jumped when I saw four grown men all staring at me with amused smiles and twinkling eyes. I soon realized I was looking at 4/5 of One Direction. Niall seemed really familiar, but I figured that was because I saw his face on every magazine. I blushed quickly and looked at Louis with wide eyes. He simply smirked in return and kept his eyes on the road.

"Um, hi?" I asked cautiously. I heard a bunch of 'hellos' and turned to face Louis.

"Care to explain?!" I whisper-yelled, as if that was going to keep the boys in the back from listening.

"Well, they were so exited to meet you, that I decided to let them come with me." He said loudly. I sent a glare in his direction (A/N: haha direction)  and tried to avoid the raised eyebrows and funny looks the boys sent me through the rear view mirror. As soon as we got to Louis' flat I hopped out of the car and got a good look at his house before I felt him come to my side and hold my hand. He looked at me sheepishly and I gave him a slight nod. Our moment got interrupted by the boys 'awwwww'ing loudly. I blushed again and removed my hand from Louis' while quickly running up to his front door. I turned around and saw Louis smacking each of the boys heads and then running to the front door.

"This....is MY FLAT!" He said in a really dramatic voice. I took one look around before deciding it would be a great place to live in. I would love to live here....with Louis. Wait what? I did not just say that. I quickly slapped myself to get my brain to shut up, receiving confused looks from everyone else.

"Um....I had, a, um, minor, um brain spasm. Yes a brain spasm. Um anyways, nice place?" Louis laughed loudly before leading me to the living room.

"So I was thinking we could watch a film!" Louis said. In response an echo of 'sure's went around the room.

"Ok so first,  a HARRY POTTER MARATHON!" I had a slight suspicion he had chosen Harry Potter because I told him it was my favorite series. He put the first film in and I eagerly started watching the movie.

"Ok, Louis! Would you rather kiss Harry or kiss Zayn?" Niall asked cheekily. After getting bored of watching so many films, we decided to play twenty questions, I have never ever, and finally, would you rather.

Louis immediately responded with a short and simple: "Harry. April! would you rather live on the streets, or with me?"

"Well seeing as I wouldn't really enjoy being homeless, I guess you. But only because it's a necessity!"  I responded quickly. Feeling a bit embarrassed I continued talking. "Anyways! Liam, would you rather date someone you just met, or stop talking to someone you've known your whole life?" 

"Date someone I just met. Ummm, Zayn, would you-"

"I'M BORED! Let's play twenty questions!" Louis suddenly yelled.

"With six people?" Zayn asked. Louis just nodded quickly.

"Fine. April, what's your full name?" Liam asked me curiously.

"April Kate Witaker."

"Witaker?" Niall asked. I nodded slowly. "I used to know someone-never mind." He said sadly.

"Anyways, April, what's your favorite colour?" Zayn asked me. 

"Why are all the questions about me? Oh and blue by the way." 

"Well because you're the only one out of all of us that we don't know. Ok, so have you got any siblings?" Harry asked boldly.

How am I supposed to answer that? I barely know them!

"I, uh, used to have a sister but, she, um, passed a few years back." I said while looking down.

"So sorry to hear that, love." Liam said sympathetically. Niall looked thoughtful for a second before looking up quickly.

"Rosie Miranda Witaker."

"Um, yeah that's her. But how do you know that?" I asked, astonished.

"She is my-she used to be my- um, my girlfriend. Well my fiancee actually." What?

"What?" The rest of the boys asked at the same time.
