Story of My Life (One Direction)

Chapter 30

Alex’s PoV

I don’t want to say I got stuck or dragged into this, but I pretty much did. I got dragged into spending a girl’s day with Danielle, Perrie and Eleanor. I like them and all, but I’m tired. My day started out with me feeling sick and moody. It wasn’t good. I just want to lie in bed and sleep. So now I am standing in front of the mirror looking at the zombie before me. Okay, that was a bit dramatic. I look fine, but I feel like a zombie. I walk downstairs feeling slightly woozy. This is not going to be a good day.

I sit down at the table and put my head down. It is very loud down here. Too loud. It hurts my head. A plate is set before me. I lift my head and see a concerned Liam giving me a sympathetic smile. I look down at my plate and eat the pancakes that smell really good. “You okay, Alex?” Liam asks, sitting down beside me. I nod. “Are you sick?” Liam feels my forehead. I swat his hand away quickly.

“I’m fine,” I snap. I don’t really want him touching me. I am fine.

“You don’t look fine,” Liam says. “Maybe you should stay home.”

“I said I am fine, Liam,” I roll my eyes. Geez. It’s my body. I know I am fine. Just morning sickness.

“Today is the day,” Louis comes down the steps pretending he can opera sing. What is with people and making noise today?

“What’s today?” I ask.

“Quality girl bonding time with the gf’s,” Louis does some weird punching thing. I roll my eyes. “You will have fun, I promise.”

“What are we doing?” I ask, shoving some pancakes into my mouth. Oh my gosh who made these pancakes. Wait, where is everyone else?

“It’s a SURPISE!” Louis suddenly raises his voice which causes Liam and me to jump.

“Jesus, Lou,” I cover my heart.

“Where is everyone else?” Louis asks.

“At the store,” Liam answers.

“Austin too?” I question. Doesn’t seem like something he would do.

“Yes. You need to finish eating the girls will be here any minute,” Liam says, trying to rush me. I will take my time if I want to, mister.

The front door is flung open. “Hello, ladies,” Eleanor sings. I laugh and end up nearly chocking on my pancakes.

The three girls come into the kitchen. “You ready?” Danielle asks. “Is she dying?”

“Yeah, just give me a sec,” I laugh. I put my plate in the sink, and the girls pull me out the door. Liam tosses me my Iphone. I smile and mouth thank you. I shove my phone into my pocket. This better be worth it because I am just not in the mood. “So where are we going?” I ask.

“We have a whole day planned,” Perrie does a little squeal and claps. I sigh. Normally I’d join in and laugh along, but I am just not in the mood. I climb into the back of a car next to Eleanor. Danielle is driving, and Perrie is riding shot gun. Perrie turns the radio on, and immediately starts singing really loud. Eleanor sings a long with her, and Danielle even joins in. I smile at all the happiness around me. Eleanor starts to poke me.
