Meeting One Direction in New Zealand

Chapter 25 (:

Chapter 25 (:

-Keshia's POV-

"Gianella, Gemma?" I winced.

Both of them quickly came up to me and attacked me with a huge hug. They both pulled away with an unreadable expression on both of their faces.

"Where have you been, Missy?" Gemma asked sternly.

I looked over at my family and friends, with the exception of Gianella and Gemma as of now, and they all have a large grin plastered on their faces. I rolled my eyes at them.

"Guys," I said, talking to Gianella and Gemma, "This is Gloria and Kieran. They're um, my best friends."

"BEST FRIENDS?" They both exclaimed.

I nodded.

There was an awkward silence between the 3 of us and no one dared to speak first.

"Where have you been?" Gianella asked, bravely breaking the awkward silence.

"I, um, I've been travelling the world lately," I answered nervously, knowing that my answer wasn't the one they're expecting.

Gemma rolled her eyes. "From your expressions right now, I know that you know that that wasn't what we meant."

I mentally groaned. I'm pretty sure that I didn't have any facial expression plastered on my face. I guess Gemma still hasn't changed - she still reads me like a book.

"I left London," I stated.

Now, it was Gianella's turn to roll her eyes. "We got that," She said, emphasising on 'that'.

"Anyway," Gemma started, changing the subject. "You're coming with us - now," She ordered.

"But I can't," I said too quickly.

They both raised their eyebrow.

"And why can't you come with us right now, Missy?" Gemma asked suspiciously.

"Yeah," Gianella backed her up.

"Because, as you can see, my family and I are on a picnic," I reasoned, gesturing my hand towards my now gone family. "Where did they go?" I gasped.

Gianella and Gemma started bursting out laughing.

"You seriously didn't hear them leave, did you?" Gianella asked in between fits of laughter.

I groaned then sighed. "I guess I have no choice."

They both jumped up and down and squealed as I reluctantly followed both of them to wherever we're going.

Surprisingly, they all still lived in the same hotel but they have their own apartment, which is still their same bedroom. We walked into Gemma's hotel room to see it packed with people. I tried to escape but Gianella and Gemma grabbed one of my arms and dragged me towards the bed.

Good thing, Harry wasn't there. I sighed out of relief and saw all of them with mixed emotions, mostly shocked and confusion. Gemma sat down next to Liam on the couch and beside her was Zayn and Gianella sat down next to him. On the other couch sat Mariele and Louis, and Jammee and Niall.

"Hey," I gave them a little wave. I groaned, "It feels like I'm just meeting you guys all over again."

Low chuckles filled the room and I smiled at that. I didn't realize how much I've missed these people.

Out of nowhere, someone hugged me and sobbed on my shoulder.

"'Lean on me, when you're not strong,'" I joked, as I stroke my sister's back.
