Alex POV

Once I parked the car, Ellie and I walked into the shopping centre.

“Are you nervous for tomorrow?” she asked in a small voice but I managed to hear her.

“To be honest, not really,” I replied shaking my head, “I should be though, but I’m not. I guess I’m not that big of a fan.”

She smiled and nudged me, “5SOS for life right?”

“For eternity!” I chuckled, “any idea what I should wear tomorrow?”

“Hmmmnn… be yourself!” she replied after thinking for a while.

“Ellie, this is Niall Horan we are talking about.”

“I know but I don’t think you should go to an interview all dressed up,” she scoffed, “it’s not like his going to be in a suit when you interview him.”

I laughed at her sarcasm and nodded, “Let’s go get some food and go home then.”

I woke up at 11am and went outside to see if Ellie was awake, turns out she was still sleeping. I decided to get started on breakfast, making eggs and bacon.

“Mhmnn that’s smells heavenly,” George mumbled.

“Morning sleepyhead,” I grinned in reply, “Ellie awake yet?”

“Yeah, she’s getting dressed.” He smiled, grabbing a plate from the cupboard, “you’re interviewing that guy from that band today right?”

“Niall Horan?” I chuckled at how clueless he was, “Yeah, his from One Direction.”

“Right, be careful,” he said sternly.

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing.”

“Wow, um ok?” I questioned, “but if there’s anything you want to te-“

“Hey girl! Excited for tonight?” Ellie interrupted rudely.

“Yep!” I answered popping the ‘p.’

George and Ellie smiled at me awkwardly. Ok, I swear there is something going on here.

“Guys, anything you want to tell me?” I asked annoyed that they were hiding something from me.

“Nothing, just be careful please,” George begged.

“What the fuck ar-” I got cut off.

“I’m so sorry,” Ellie cried and ran into her room slamming the door, leaving George and I standing awkwardly.

“George what’s happe-”

“Leave it, she’ll calm down,” he forced a smile, “Just be careful tonight ok?”

Instead of saying something I nodded and George walked off to see what was happening with Ellie. I swear what the fuck is going on? These 3 days have been weird. First, I got a job, then an interview with Niall Horan, a creepy boss and now my friends are acting strange around me. I decided to ignore it and look through some of the questions I needed to ask at the interview tonight.

George POV

I can’t believe how evil Ellie’s boss was. He was basically telling Ellie to turn on her best friend and if Ellie told the truth to Alex, Mr Daniel threatened to fire her on the spot. I wanted to smash his face in, but Ellie didn’t want me to land in jail or get pressed any charges. I told Ellie I would pay for her rent but she told me it was too much money and that she didn’t want people to think that she was only using me for my money.

“I can’t believe this,” she cried running her hand through her hair, “she will hate me so much.”

“Babe, its fine,” I tried to comfort my girlfriend, “we will sort something out, but for now you need to calm down before Alex suspects something.”

“How am I supposed to calm down George?! Can you not see my best friend is about to do a sin because of me? And the worst thing is that she won’t even realize it!” she shouted back.

“Hun I know how you feel but there’s nothing we can do about it, the only thing we can do now is hope everything will go wrong in that interview.” I shouted back equally as loud.

“Yeah, yeah your right. I need to calm down.” She sniffed, “Let’s just hope it doesn’t go well at that interview.”

Alex POV

I didn’t realize I feel asleep when I was reading over the questions, I grabbed my phone to check the time, ‘5:47’ it read. I jumped off my bed, packed everything and decided to get ready. “Hmmnn, what to wear…” I said to myself out loud.

I finally decided on a white tank top, denim vest, denim shorts and Adidas shoes. After applying light make-up and packing everything in my bag, I was ready to go. I wrote a little note to Ellie and George to say that I left to go to the interview before going downstairs and starting my car.

The drive there wasn’t too long, it only took me 20 mins, leaving me another 10 mins before the actually interview. I opened my car door and came face-to-face with the hotel. It was a huge, classy hotel, the ones you see in movies. I went inside and told the recpetionist I was here before taking a seat in the lobby to wait for Niall.

“Thank you so much Melbourne! You we’re a great tonight!” Liam yelled into the microphone.

“Until next time!” Louis shouted, “We love you! Bye!”

The boys and I all bowed making the fans scream like crazy.

“That was a great show boys, well done.” The stage manager praised.

I smiled at him grabbing a drink from my water bottle, “Anybody got anything to eat? I’m starving.”

“Aren’t you always?” Harry chuckled, “There should be some snacks in your dressing room.”

I thanked Harry before running off to my dressing room, grabbing an apple and biting into it.

“Niall!” Zayn shouted from a distance.

“In here!” I shouted back.

“Oh good, management says you have an interview with the Suns Newspaper Co or something back at the hotel. You need to change and leave in 5 minutes.”

“You can’t be serious,” I placed my apple down grabbing my clothes from the rack and getting into the change room.

“Sorry mate, we’ll do something fun tomorrow night?” Zayn suggested.

We all forgot I had an interview tonight and planned to go bowling then movies but I guess not.

“Yeah, that’s what we always say.” I mumbled, pissed off. Zayn gave me a sympathetic smile before exiting my room. I sighed and got ready, “this better be the last interview for the month.” I said to myself, knowing it won’t be.

Alex POV

I waited and waited, panicking and sweating, his 15 minutes late. I sighed and got up, just when I was about to leave, I saw a blonde-haired boy with blue eyes enter the building. He was tall and muscular and spoke with a thick Irish accent, it was Niall fucking Horan. He was getting hassled by the paparazzi outside the hotel, but finally managed to get into the building.

“Hey, I’m looking someone from The Suns Newspaper Co?” the blue-eyed boy asked the receptionist.

Oh my fucken gosh, he was asking for me, Niall James Horan was asking for me, Alex Reed. Oh god, now I’m nervous.

“Ah, she should be waiting over…” the 30 year old receptionist pointed, “there.”

 “Thank you,” he smiled before turning to my direction and walking towards me.
