After having a day of sulking and sorting out my the look of my room, I had painted it with blue and white strips, yes the stereotypical sailing colours, hey, nothing wrong with that. I had also placed up all my posters of my favourite bands and pictures of all my friends and family. I miss them so much. Before I had time to drown in my sadness I heard a knock on the door and as I turned around I saw an Irish head peeping round the edge of the door sheepishly, looking around my room in awe. It wasn't that great, I followed his gaze and noticed he was looking at my guitar collection. I was proud of that.

"You know you can come in right?" I said with a slight smirk, He jumped, before opening the door wider and coming in. Shutting it behind him he lent awkwardly against it. What was up with him? Who knows?

"May I help you Niall?" HIs head whipped up to meet my eyes and looked shocked, what, like I wasn't going to know the members of One Directions name. 

"I, err, yeah, urrm Paul said you had to come eat with us, we're going to Nandos." He said stuttering a bit before smiling. Ah yes, this is the boy that likes food. Got it. He looked at me expectantly and I realised that he wanted an answer.

"Sure, just give me a minute to get ready and I'll be down in a bit," I smiled at him, "Thanks for telling me."

"Okay, I'll just go tell Paul." He said enthusiastically, was seeing Paul really that exciting, apparently so. hmmm. I decided I needed a shower so I went and got my towel out of the cupboard. Walking to the bathroom I began to gather my shower things that I had left in the boxes and got into the shower. After about 10 minutes I realised I needed to get out and get dressed. As we were going out I decided against tracksuit bottoms and a baggy top, instead I wore a pair of black skinny jeans with a fitted sweatshirt and a beanie. What, I can’t go anywhere without a beanie. Hurriedly, I ran down stairs to be meet once again with the eager eyes of five boys.

“Take your time love.” I look round to notice Louis with a smug look on his face. He’s clearly enjoying himself. Not bothering to come up with a witty response I just replied,

“Oh bite me idiot.” After that he just laughed and make a face. What’s his problem? The twerp. Before he could reply Paul came into the lounge and noticed us all there.

“Come on guys, Scamp, let’s go before we lose our place.” Begrudgingly, I tore my eyes away from the glaring match I was having with Louis and skipped to the car whilst yelling shotgun. I heard a chorus of groans coming from behind me yet I kept moving. I loved the black SUV Chevy that Paul had, it reminded me of Criminal minds, god I love that show. I must watch it when I get home. It was only when I heard the laughing of five obnoxious boys that I realised that they were already in the car. Opps, trying to must as much dignity I could, I opened the door and climbed in before strapping my seatbelt up.

“Falling asleep there were we?” I heard Louis giggle, not a laugh, an actual giggle. Oh dear. He urks me of so much. Holding in a growl I turned around and looked at the four laughing boys, Niall had stopped laughing at me and just watched at me with curious eyes. Once they had realised I was staring at them they quickly paused and were silent. Thankfully. I waiting till I heard the click of the driver’s door, indicating that Paul had got in, before I turned around. When Paul had turned on the ignition I turned on the radio to distract me from the boys. Unfortunately, the boys hadn’t taken the hint that I didn’t want to talk to them so they started asking questions. Where’d you come from? What school did you go to? What do you want to do in collage? bla bla bla. Reluctantly I answered them all.

“Eastbourne, West Priory, not sure yet.” Even after I answered them the questions kept coming. Not before long it turned into ‘would you rather’. I hated that game but even so I participated and began to relax. As we all began to answer the questions steadily Louis just had to open his mouth.

“STTTOOOOOPPP THE CAR!!!! I NEED TO PEE!!!” Wow, thanks Louis, we really needed to know. Paul then had to turn around to find a service station. As Louis ran to the toilet we all climbed out shutting our doors in unison. I stood round next to Niall and Liam before my stomach growled. Looking down in embarrassment expecting the guys to laugh I got a pleasant surprise when Niall nudged me and held out a chocolate bar. Looking up to ask if it was okay and Niall just gave me a smile and said,

“You need it more than me.” Sending him a thankful grin I began eating it, sparing a second to give Liam a side glance to see him pouting.

“What’s up Liam?” I inquired, He looked like a sad puppy about to cry. Can dogs cry, I don’t think so? Note to self: google if puppy’s can cry. As my brain began to ramble I noticed Liam was speaking.

“Niall gave you his food but not to me, I’m offended!” I began to worry but he stopped me by laughing, oh he was joking, stupid me. As we began talking about The Series of Unfortunate Events, Louis and Harry came bounding up. When Harry leave.  Who knows, deciding to not think about it I climbed back into the front of the car before driving off.

It started to rain. We were in a car and it started to rain. Do you see my problem, Paul did. Like all good uncles should do he tried to take my mind off of it by turning the music up loud. Not before long the boys had started to sing. I knew they could but they were even amazing in person. After two songs I began to fall asleep.
