Maia's POV:

It's 11:30 am and I wake up to someone calling me on my phone.

Incoming call: Mom

"Hello? Maia?" I hear my mom say excitedly

"Mom? What happened why are you calling all of a sudden?" I ask feeling uneasy.

"Oh honey can't I just call my sweetheart to check how she's doing?" Mom laughs.

"Ha ha. I'm doing fine how are you?" I ask.

"Honey I'm fine, but seriously I called to tell you something that you may or may not like", my mom says "so aunt Sarah called me and told me about you renting your car and all your shopping and she told me that for some extra cash, Kendall used to babysit next door. Would you be up for it?"

Babysit? Well that's random. But I mean I do need some extra cash to pay off the car rent.

"Yea that'd be great! I'll tell aunt Sarah but why didn't she just ask me?" I ask.

"I don't know honey well I got to go, call me later okay? I love you."

Before I can say anything she hangs up.

I go downstairs to ask Aunt Sarah about the babysitting and head to the kitchen.

"Good morning honey!! How was your sleep?" Aunt Sarah asks with a smile on her face.

"It was really good! So mom just called me talking about the babysitting next door, do you have the persons number?" I ask

"Oh yes! I already talked to Trisha about you. She asked me if I can send you over at 6:00 for dinner so you can meet her and the family!" She says excitedly.

"Oh my god that's great. Thank you so much auntie!" I say as I hug her.

I go upstairs and as I'm in the shower I realize.

Zayn lives next door.

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

I get out my outfit for the dinner and I wear a black dress and heels. I curl my hair and do my makeup and just hope and pray that I'm not overdressing.

I walk down the stairs with my purse and phone in my hand when I hear a scream which almost makes me fall down the stairs.

"HOLY.SHIT. YOU LOOK SO BOMB OH MY GOD" I hear Kendall say which reminds me of when Emily was dressing me for the party back at home.

I note to myself to call Emily later and go to hug Kendall.

I check the time 5:55 pm

"Well I better get going bye guys!!" I yell to Kendall and to Harry walking down the stairs.

He waves bye and smiles at me. I haven't been able to spend time with anyone other than Kendall. I hope I get to talk to all of them more over the summer.

I walk out the door and walk to the mansion next door. I ring the doorbell and wait a few seconds till the door opens to a beautiful about 40 year old looking woman.

She grins and pulls me in for a hug. "Maia! Oh, how wonderful you look. Come in"

I walk in and the house is about as big as Aunt Sarah's house. I notice two other teenage looking girls looking at me and grinning.

They both run up to me and ask about where I got my makeup, dress, and heels. They introduce themselves as Waliyah and Doniya.

I laugh and then notice a little girl walking my way.

"And you must be Safaa" I say to the cutest girl in the world.

"Who are you?" She asks with a smile.

"I'm Maia, I'm going to be here watching you so you don't get lonely" I say to her with the softest smile.

She then comes to me and hugs me, well my legs, and I give her the biggest smile.

"Dinners ready! Come to the table everyone" Trisha yells laughing as she sees us already getting along.

I then hear a thick British accent behind me. "Is that the babysitter? I like the back view" and I can already hear his smirk.

I turn around and zayns smirk falls to a frown. "You? What the fuck are you doing here? No no no no your not the babysitter please no" Zayn says while giving me the dirtiest look.

"Dinners ready" I say to him with a smirk while walking to the table.

******************************

We are all seated at the dinner table and I am sitting next to Waliyah and Doniya while Zayn is sitting in front of me, Trisha to his right and Safaa to his left.

"Yaser, Saffa's dad, couldn't make it today but you will meet him probably later this week" Trisha says to me with a smile. I smile back and nod chewing my pasta

"So when should I start babysitting?" I ask taking a sip of water.

"Actually, I was thinking tomorrow, and incase you were wondering Waliyah and Doniya are always gone for work so they can never watch Safaa." She sighs. "And lasting Zayn babysitted Safaa I came home to the whole house flooded with water."

I choke out a laugh and Zayn glares at me. "What time should I come?"

"Is it possible for you to come from 6pm till 12? I don't know when I'll be off of work, I'm sorry" she says while a maid comes and picks up all the plates.

"It's fine. I'll stay as long as you need me to, and here's my number" I smile and I hand her a piece of paper with my number.

She thanks me and I stay for another hour talking to everyone and notice Zayn has been gone the whole time.

I say bye to everyone and walk back home and change to my pajamas.

This is going to be an interesting summer.
