Aimee's P.O.V.
"Ow, Louis! You're crushing me!" I groaned.
"I'm just so proud of you! You're growing up so fast!" Louis wiped away a fake tear after releasing me from his bone crushing hug.
"Jeez Lou, I only got signed it's not as though I got a number one single."
"That's the next step!" I sat down in the 1D house living room.
"I don't even know if I have any fans yet. I doubt I'll get a number one without fans." Louis sighed and sat opposite me. Niall, Zayn and Harry joined us. Seconds later my phone started buzzing. I glared at Louis suspiciously. "What did you do?" He shrugged and I pulled out my phone. I had a notification from Twitter. I logged on and saw that Louis had mentioned me.
"@Louis_Tomlinson: If you aren't already following her, follow @Aimee_J! She's an up and coming singer who's about to release her first single! #GoodLuckAimee"
I smiled over at Louis who gave me thumbs up. Three more notifications came through to my phone. I looked through them to find that Harry, Niall and Zayn had retweeted Louis' tweet. "Thanks guys. You shouldn't be trying to get me fans though. I'd rather them follow me in their own time rather than doing it because you told them too. That way I know who my true fans are, rather than your fans trying to get noticed by you."
"Nonsense. Our fans are you're fans. They know how much you mean to Harry so if they're true fans they'll accept you and give you a chance and listen to your music."
"That was very deep, Niall..." Niall gave an over-exaggerated wink to Zayn. I couldn't help but laugh. I love my best friends.

"What time is it babe?"
"Almost 2pm." Shit!
"Are you serious? I have to meet my new manager in half an hour! Shit!" I jumped up, almost tripped over Niall's foot and ran out of the 1D house shouting my goodbyes to the boys as I went. I jumped in my car and drove around the streets of London until I found the miniature version of Syco Studios. I got out and locked my car. I was starting to get nervous. I don't know why, I was only meeting my manager. I hope Simon got be someone young and cool. I pushed the main door and walked in. I stopped at the reception desk. An old-ish woman looked up from her computer. "Um, hi. I'm Aimee Jones. I have a meeting with someone whose name I don't know yet since I haven't met them before..." The woman typed something into the computer then looked back at me.
"Head to your left and up the stairs. You're in the second door on the right. Oh and you'll need this." She handed me a special pass thing which I put over my neck. I thanked her and headed off; following the instructions she gave me.
On the way along the corridor before I reached the stairs, I came across a really cute guy. If I wasn't dating Harry, I would have no objections as to saying yes to him. He smiled at me as I walked passed him. I smiled back and we walked on. If he can sing as good as he looks, he'll have no problem. I continued my journey up the stairs and stopped outside the second door on the right. I didn't know whether to knock the door or not, so I did anyway. I lightly knocked it twice before opening it to reveal Simon and a strange guy who assumed was the guy who would become a massive part of my life. "Ah, Aimee. Just the girl we were looking for." Simon stood up, along with the guy. "Aimee, this is Peter Wright; Peter, this is Aimee." 'Peter' held out his hand and I gladly shook it. I was relieved I didn't get some forty year old. Peter looks like he's in his twenties so he should be on the same thought process as me.
"It's nice to meet you Aimee. I've heard you're very talented so I'm very eager to start working with you." Peter smiled at me, which I gladly returned.
"Thanks, I'm quite excited myself. This is all new to me so everything seems amazing right now." I laughed a little as Simon left us alone.
"So, why waste any time? What are the plans for the album?"
"I have no idea."
"You're first single?" I shook my head. "Looks like we have a lot to do then!
Peter smiled at me and opened up his laptop." This is so much more complicated than I thought it was going to be.

After a good few hours of discussion and plans being made and finalised, I've decided what my first single is going to be. But Peter being the smart guy he seems to be, has had an idea. And it involved that cute boy from the corridor. "Ok Aimee, this is Jake; Jake, Aimee. You two are pretty much in the same position right now. So I think it would be great for both of you if you collaborate with each other for both of your first singles." I nodded, liking the idea. Jake seemed to like it already. "Now all you have to decide is whether to use Aimee's song and add Jake's vocals to it somehow, or vice versa. Studio 3 is available for a few hours, so you guys can go in there and work on something." I nodded.
"Thanks Peter." I smiled.
"Thanks man." Jake said. We both left the office and walked around until we found 'Studio 3'. We got talking while we walked. "You're the girl dating Harry Styles aren't you?" I nodded and blushed slightly.
"He's a pretty decent lad - and a lucky one at that." Jake winked at me and that made me blush even more. Concentrate, Aimee.
Meghan's P.O.V.
Last night with Liam was amazing. The picnic was so cute and going to bed was equally as good (if you get my drift). Put it this way, it was an anniversary to remember. I had woken up before Liam and had a shower. I was on the balcony of our room, on my phone. I had come across a YouTube video entitled, "The Adventurous Adventures of One Direction". As I was watching it, Liam appeared on the balcony in a pair of shorts. Since he was topless, I got distracted from the video. I couldn't help but smile. He's all mine. "What are you watching babe?"
"Um, some cartoon this guy made. It's about One Direction being superheroes trying to save some 'pussys'." Liam raised an eyebrow and sat down beside me. We both finished watching it.
"That was so weird, but good at the same time." He said, staring at the screen.
"The guy that made this should get an award." Liam nodded in agreement. I stood up and went to go back into the room when Liam pulled me back to sit on his lap. "Can I help you?"
"No, but I can help you." He smiled at me and pecked my lips.
"What'd you mean?" I asked.
"I want to teach you how to swim today." My eyes widened in fear.
"No way. I don't want to drown." I said, shaking my head.
"You won't drown; I'll be there to save you." I couldn't resist his cuteness.
"Fine, but if I die it's your fault.

"No, Liam I can't do it. I need to get out. I'm a celebrity, get me out of here!" Liam laughed at me. We were in the deep end of the pool. I was shitting myself because I couldn't touch the bottom, and either could Liam. He was holding onto me while keeping us both afloat.
"You'll be fine. I'll be swimming right beside you." I shook my head.
"Can we go back down to the shallower end? I don't feel as scared there." Liam nodded and I kissed his cheek as a thank you. He swam down to the shallow end, pulling me with him. I felt like a right dick having my boyfriend trail me through the water because I can't swim.
"OK, just do what you did before but don't touch the ground like you did the first time. Eventually there won't be a ground to touch so it's better to learn without it." He smiled at me as I nervously looked across to the other side of the pool I was about to flop aimlessly over too. A baby with armbands in a rubber ring was swimming beside us. Even a baby is better than me.
"Can I have one of those?" I pointed to the rubber ring the baby had. Liam just laughed.
"You don't need one. Come on, I'll be side you the whole way." I nodded and took a deep breath. Time to make a fool of myself.
