*Next Day*
Kayla P.O.V
Maddie was waiting outside in my car. I told her I had forgotten something. I ran upstairs to my brothers bedroom and grabbed his favorite sweatshirt and the picture of him holding the game ball from his first varsity football game. Now i officially had everything I needed for college.
"What did you need to grab?" she asked as if she was discusted I took so long "Jakes' sweatshirt and a picture" I responded while putting on my seat belt and adjusting my mirrors.
We were two hours into out eight hour drive when the radio finally gave out and blasted out nothing but static on every station we tried. It was time to break out the cd's and fast. Niether of us could handle the silencec any longer. I popped open the glove box and pointed to the pink and ble striped cd and asked maddie to put it in. She had no idea what I asked her to put in but she did as soon as the music started. Right off the bat she started singing One Directions' song "Live While Were Young" on the "Take Me Home" album. Yeah me and Maddie are 19 year old Directioners..big deal!
Number three came on. "Little Things" was both mine and my best friends' favorite song in the entire world.
"Your hand fits in mine like its made just for me but bear this in mind it was meant to be. . ."
We sang along word by word for four more songs until we had to stop for gas.
Once we got out of the store I ran into the gas station to pay but also decided to grab some on the road goodies, i got some gummi bears, a bag of chips, and a few sodas and went up to pay. Once the slow clerk finally rang everything up and I got out of there I headed back to my car and walking back I spotted Maddie talking to a blonde haired male with a cute bootie.
I went immediately to pump the gas into the car I didnt even bother looking at who the mystery guy was so i put the nossle of the gas pump in the car pressed the button and put the food and drinks in the back. While I waited for the gas to fill up the tank Maddie finally decided to bring around her mystery guy and I about choked as he came into view. . . NIALL JAMES HORAN was walking side by side with Maddie and I just couldnt believe it.
"Ummmm Kayla look who I found while you were in there?" "Im going to have to guess Niall Horan from One Direction since he is standing right in front of me" I responded and smiled at Niall.
Niall laughed. . . his irish laugh is so cute <3
"Kayla right? I nodded yes. . "Well your friend tells me you are a huge fan and are headed to university. . . funny thing is so are me and the lads and the car were riding in is quite small and I was wondering if there was any way youd let liam and I ride with you and your friend?" "Yeah um sure I dont see why not" i was dying inside "Cool i'll go grab liam"
"Maddie!! We're driving to university with Niall Horan and Liam Payne" "I know!"
Liam and Niall walked over and we all got into my car and after i re adjusted my chair and put on my safety belt i started the engine and "Rock Me" came on blasting and the guys just started to crack up. I could tell this was going to become a very interesting ride.
"Soo. . . why are you guys heading to university? are you headed to an event or concert? I looked over at Maddie and gave her the stink eye like ' you dont just ask them that ' "Actually no we are going to attend as students. We are all taking a break from music for a little bit. We need some regularity in our lifes." Liams accent is way sexier in person then listening to him thru interviews.
"Thats cool im going to become a nurse and Kayla is going to get away from her verbally abusive father, the loss of her brother and to get her medical degree." "Maddie did you really need to blurt out my buisness!? I trusted you with that information!"
Maddie fell silent and Liams hand came to rest on my shoulder "Im sorry for your loss Kayla" "Thank you Liam but his death was over a year ago its getting easier to deal with" I lied but I wasnt going to tell Liam Payne that I cutt because of his death and that im still broken inside from it.
It was getting hot inside the car even though I had the air on so I took off my long sleeved shirt and was now only in my undershirt. I wasnt thinking before I did that and now Maddie and the guys were staring at my scars.
"Kayla why are those on your arms?"
"Maddie just let it go and dont worry about it. I dont need to lose another person close to me"
"what do you mean lose another person close to you?" Niall asked with deep concern
"Its nothing really. Plus, its my own buisness im not going to trouble you with any of it"
"Niall why dont you switch spots with Maddie and have Kayla sit back here. Maddie you can drive right?"
"Yeah" Maddie agreed I pulled over and we all played chinese firedrill
I sat next to the right window and rested my head against it. I made sure I grabbed my brothers sweatshirt before I sat back there. I have no idea why, but, Liam scooted over and sat in the middle seat and took my hand in his.
