Olivia’s POV
I grabbed my suitcases off the luggage claim and walked outside to catch a cab. Emmmaline was supposed to meet me at the airport today but she was sick with a really bad head cold. I handed my bags to a taxi driver and climbed into the backseat of the cab. She said the drive was short so I plugged my headphones in and waited for the cab to stop. Hmm, I should probably send he a text or something.
Be there soon just got in a cab! Can’t wait to see you! Xx Olivia
Can’t wait! See you in a few! Xx Emmaline
About ten minutes later I pulled up in front of a building that looked like a castle. “Are you sure this is the right place?” I asked the driver stepping out of the car with his and walking to where my luggage was stored. “Yes miss. It’s the exact address you gave me.” I paid him and walked to the entrance. There was a set of stair I could go up or an elevator. I chose to take the elevator there was no way I would be dragging my bum up those stairs with all this baggage. I reached the second floor and walked down the hall until I found my new apartment that I would be sharing with Emmaline. I was about to knock on the door when I heard someone call my name from behind me. I turned around to see Harry Styles walking towards me holding his arms out. Oh my gosh. What a I supposed to do? He reached me and wrapped his arms around me. I couldn’t hug him back because I had bags in my hands but also partly because I was in shock that Emmaline wasn’t making it up. We really do live next to One Direction. “Hi.” I said when he let go of me.
“So your our new neighbor, huh?” He asked and opened the door to the apartment.
“Yeah. I am.”
“Ladies first.” He said gesturing for me to enter my flat.
“Thank you.” I walked in and was in complete shock. There was a chandelier hanging from the living room ceiling and there was a huge set of stairs. Leading up to what I’m guessing was the master bedroom. Then there was a huge kitchen and door leading to my room. I looked at the couch and saw Emma cuddled into Niall’s chest sleeping with tissues all around them and the rest of the boys watching the second Toy Story movie on the floor. Niall looked up from the movie and waved at me the pointed to a room. “That one is yours.” He whispered trying not to wake Emma up.
“Thanks” I said at a normal volume hoping to wake Emma up and walking to my room to put my stuff down. When I walked back out Emma’s eyes were fluttering open.
“Olivia!” She said as loudly as she could. I guess she had lost her voice too.
“Heyyy! You look awful!” I squealed.
“I feel awful. Come sit down.” She moved legs and some tissues out of the way for me to sit next to her. I gave her a quick hug and sat down between her and Harry. “We have so much catching up to do when they leave.” She whispered in my ear.
Shocked by the thought of them leaving I blurted out “They have to leave?!” They all turned to look at me and laughed and my face turned bright pink.
Emmaline’s POV
I fell back asleep soon after Olivia sat back down. I felt so awful, my head was pounding and my throat was torn to pieces from coughing so much. My nose was all stuffy and my eyes were swollen. I looked like a mess and I couldn’t fathom why the boys were even around me right now. They were all going to get sick and it would be my fault.
Niall was playing with my hair and I heard Olivia talking with the rest of the boys about California so I opened my eyes to join in.
“She lives!” Louis said quite loudly and I groaned. My headache had gotten worse so I stood up and walked to the kitchen to get something to help with it. Pouring myself a glass of water and a pill I saw Niall walk in and start a pot of tea for us all. He had been so sweet my entire sickness.
He was staying here making sure that I barely moved until I got better and the boys had to do some interview yesterday but he stayed home to take care of me even though I objected to it. I took an ice pack out of the fridge and placed it on my forehead instantly feeling better and walked over to Niall and hugged him from behind. Something about being sick just made me really needy for love. He turned around and wrapped his arms around me pulling me as close to him as possible. I buried my head in his chest and he kissed the top of my head.
“I need to o lay down again my head is killing me.” I whispered trying not to overwork my voice. “I’ll be there in a minute with tea for all of us.” He called after me.
Olivia was gone from couch now and it was just Harry sitting there. I walked over to him laid down next to him and placed my head on his lap and the ice on my face. “This cold will be the death of me.” I mumbled into the ice. “Where’s Olivia?”
“She was jetlagged and fell asleep so I took her to her room.” Harry explained.
I grinned and reached up to rustle Harry’s hair. “Aw Harry! That’s so sweet of you.”
“Don’t make fun of me!” He said and started to tickle me.
“I wasn’t! I wasn’t!” I tried to scream but it sounded more like a sqeak.
“At least I don’t sound like mouse.” He said and stopped tickling my side.
“If she sounds like a mouse. That’s the cutest mouse I’ve ever heard.” Niall said from behind us. I moved my feet for him to sit down and then placed them back on his lap while taking the tea from his hands.
“Thanks.” I whispered and blew him a kiss.
