I am ALWAYS prepared...dumb-ass

maddie thullen, asian, and everyone else who bothered me all day to update this HERE YOU GO GUYS! I know it most definitely sucks butt but (hehe butt but) here ya'll go:) enjoy.

                                                   -your friend.

"Don't cry." Nialls says with a soft voice. I wipe a few tears off my face. "You never saw me cry. Okay?" I say in a hushed tone. "I promise I won't. But why?" he asks in the same tone as me. "Because they can't know, Niall. Im not weak." I say coldy. I hate crying infront of people. I do. Nate told me that crying meant you wrre weak, and im not. After all those times me and him and faught and all the times I lost, I grew stronger. I stopped crying in the open from then on. I don't plan on crying in public for awhile too. He just nods his head and we stand there in silence until we hear Asian scream. I go running because I was always protective over her. I run into the living room and see Asian laughing on the ground. "What happened?!" I yell, still freaked out.

"Put the knife down!" Maddie yells at me and I noticed that I was holding a knife. "Sorry. I ran to see what was going on amd must've forgot to put it down." I shyly smile. "Well shes fine. Just slipped." Maddie says as she recovers from laughing. I walk away and enter the kitchen. Niall must've left because it was empty.

-------------------------------------

"Dinners ready!" I yell and watch the herd of friends enter the dinner room. "Did you take out two extra plates?" Brandon asks. "Shit! Why?" I ask and go and grab two more plates and a set of silver wear. I walk into the diner room and almost drop the plates. "KYL?!?!" I yell and put everything down and hug him. "You've gotten stronger." he says as I hug him tight. "Okay don't kill your brother." he says and tries to break from my hug. "Brandon you should've told me he was coming!" I said and hug Brandon. "But then you wouldn't have almost killed the man!" Brandon says ad he hugs me back.

"So I understand the need for one plate...the other?" I say and then hear the very familiar Portuguese accent. "Dad!" I yell and hug Daniel. I consider Daniel more of my dad than my real dad. Honestly I do. "Hey beans. I see you got a boyfriend." he says and looks at Brandon in suspicion. "Yes...and hes nice. So stay calm." I say and start to set up the extra plates. Everyone digs in and Niall and Allona are almost finishing their plates. "Dude, how are you still eating?!" I yell at Allona.

"Well it's good food...and im still hungry." she says and smirks a little. "Do you and Niall have like bottomless stomachs?" Asian asks, Allona and Niall nod their heads yes. I chuckle in response. It got quiet after that. A little too quiet. "So Brandon how did you and Attie meet here in London?" Daniel asks and Maddie raises her eye brows at me. "Well me Kennedy, and Allona all went to the store the other day and well...I thought I saw Brandon and went up to talk to him." I smile as Daniel looks at me and Brandon interested.  "Ah nice." he says and goes back to eating. "Brandon how did you find my dad and Calvin?" I ask him. "I was talking to Kyl and he was already gonna come out here." Brandon says and looks at Kyl as if he wanted him to explain more.

"So how did you know Daniel." I smile at my fake brother. "He's my boss." Kyl says and I look at Daniel who shakes his head yes. "Well..." I say and awkardly laugh. I noticed that Niall kept glancing at me. I looked down at my plate to avoid looking into his eyes. "Attie you okay?" Brandon asks me and grabs my hand. "Hmm? Oh yeah." I say and smile at him. Im happy I talked to him that day at the store.

I start washing the dishes when I here someone come into the kitchen. "Hey Attalina." I hear an irish voice coo. I like his accent but I can not stand my reall name being said. "Its Attie." I say and don't turn around. "Sorry. But hey where you staying tonight?" Niall asks. "At Brandons apartment." I like-well love the sound of that. "Oh. Well I'm gonna spend one more night with Allona." he cheekily smiles. "Well you to have fun." I smile and I only let some sarcasm come out.

"So what do you and Brandon do at his place?" he asks, god he is sounding like Nate. "We sit on his really comfy couch and watch movies till we fall asleep. I honestly feell bad because hes so skinny and I have this extra whale flubber. I feel like I can crush him when I lean on him." I half laugh. "Did you just call yourself fat?" Niall asks and furrows his eyebrows. "Yes. But obviously in the nicest way possible." I say and grad my flubber. "Attie you are beautiful. Any guy would be lucky to have you." he says and I feel myself blush a deep red. "Liar." I mutter and shake my head. "I would kiss you because you are so pretty." he says and walks up to me. Our  faces are so close I can hear him breathing. I back up and he looks sad. "Niall. You're dating Allona. Okay? Hurt her and I will not care if you are famous I will break your face." I say and he looks scared.

"Sorry. Lets just not tell Brandon that you were that close to me." I say and put my hand out to push him back. "Attie!" I hear a couple of voices yell. I walk off. I wanted Niall to kiss me but that would be completely wrong. I liked Brandon a lot. "Yes?" I say and see Daniel by the door. "Ohh. Are you leaving?" I ask and hug him. "Alrighty. Well I love you and good night. How long you in town?" I say as I break from the hug. "For the next two days. Lunch tomorrow?" he asks and I smile yes. "Wait! Can I bring Brandon along?" I ask and he agrees. We all wave by to him and then we watch some T.V. I be sure to stay away from Niall.

"You wanna go back to my place?" Brandon whispers in my ear. "Yeah im like way tired." I say and yawn. "Kyl do you wanna stay here and come down to my place later or are you gonna come down with me and Attie now?" Brandon asks the occupied Kyl. "Later." Kyl says and continues to look at the screen. I laugh. "Bye guys! Talk to ya later.!" I shout before Louis cuts in. "Attie wait!" he yells. "Uhh yeah?" I half say half ask. "Why dont you and your boyfriend have like a double date thing with Niall and Allona?" he asks and I was completely shocked. "Im down with that." Allona says and Niall nods his head. "Yeah. It'll be fun, Attie." Brandon smiles at me. "Yeah im fine with it!"  I almost yell and then continue walking.

We make it down the stairs before Brandon starts talking. "Okay so was it me or did Niall like keep staring at you while eating dinner?" he asks nervously.
