Castaways

THREE

Liz's POV

I can't believe Ally met Harry Styles. Why didn't I go with her to go get a magazine?!
I literally want to slap myself across the face.

Maybe I should.

I put my bag on my lap and searched for my phone.

Gum Wrappers.

Lip Balm.

And much more useless junk.

After countless minutes of looking, I found my black iPhone.

I tapped in my password (123harry) and logged into all of my social network accounts.

Twitter was buzzing out of control. Especially all of the One Direction Update Accounts.

And yes, I do follow all of them.

One of the tweets read,

"HARRY SEEN HOLDINF HANDSS WITH GIRL AT AIRPORT OMGMFASH.."

I clicked on the picture that was in the link.

It was a curly haired girl holding hands with Harry Styles.

Wait.

That curly haired girl is my boo.

Ally is trending on twitter.

This is amazing.

I turned my head around to see Ally sitting a few seats behind me.

She was scanning through her Tiger Beat magazine.

Haha. I read that when I was 12.

I looked back on my phone and kept on scrolling through twitter.

More and more pictures of the One Direction boys at the airport. The same flipping airport where I was.

And of course, I didn't see them.

I wonder where the boys were heading to next.

Maybe back to Europe?

Can I join them?

I am not looking forward to see my parents when I return home to Los Angeles.

You see, I'm like a disappointment to my parents. All they wanted was for me to go to Brown. Pressure was put on my shoulders since day 1.

I, of course, rebelled.

Dyed my hair, skipped school, dated bad boys.

I don't regret any of it though.

Maybe the bad boy part.

They were jerks.

I silently prayed to the thought of returning home. There will be no welcome balloons or a nice cake.
I closed my eyes. Breathe Liz.

Breathe.

My stomach rumbles.

Now I wanted cake.

Liam POV

**THIRTY MINUTES BEFORE**

"Where do you think Harry is?" I asked Niall. Niall got up from his chair and scanned the gigantic crowd.
The big TV screen hanging from the wall said that our flight was boarding in 4 minutes.
Damn it Harry.

"He's over there!" Niall exclaimed.

I followed where Niall was pointing.

Harry was standing next to a girl.

His head flew backwards in laughter.
The girls cheeks were flushed and she giggled.

The hell is happening?

Why is he flirting with someone when he could be finding his MISSING best friend?

I pulled my phone out of my pocket and dialed his number. When he answered, I screamed to him that the flight was leaving in about 5 min. I saw his eyes roll and muttered something I couldn't hear over the phone.

Harry waved goodbye to the girl and disappeared into the Men's Bathroom.

After he was gone, the curly haired girl jumped up and down with joy and ran away from the magazine stand. I guess she was a fan?

"I've never seen Harry look at a girl like that before," Niall said.
I nodded in agreement. Harry has a had a bad past with girls.

Caroline, Taylor, and now 'Kendall'. However, all of them were only for the cameras.
Harry hasn't had a real relationship since the Xfactor.

Probably even before that.

"Where's Louis and Harry?" Paul said while walking up to Niall and I.

"In the bathroom," Niall replied.
Paul nodded and checked his watch.
"It's almost time to go," He mumbled. I zipped my phone in my pocket and put my backpack on my shoulder. I hope there aren't any paparazzi here, because I look retarded.

Seconds later, a teary-eyed Louis appeared.
"You okay mate?" I patted him on the shoulder. He sniffled and walked away to gather his bags.
Harry came right after.
"What happened?" I asked him. He shook his head.
"I'll tell you later," He informed me.

"Okay boys, are you ready to go?" Paul said. We all nodded. Suddenly, a loud buzzing came out Paul's pocket. He grabbed his phone out of his pocket and answered.
"Hello?" He asked into the phone.
I looked over at Louis.He wasn't okay. I'll sit next to him on the plane and ask what's up.
"Okay, I'll be right there" Paul said and hung up the phone.
"What's happening?" Harry took a step closer to Paul. Paul sighed.

"Zayn needs me,"

Louis laughed.
"Well, we have a plane to catch!" He said annoyingly.
Niall hit him in the stomach.

"Is Zayn okay?"

"Yeah, he just needs me to sign some papers for something," He mumbled.

"So should we go without you?" Louis choked. He was still trying not to cry.

"The plane is boarding now, you boys go!" He told us. He handed us our tickets and shooed us away.

"Andy will meet you boys at the airport... don't do anything stupid,"

That that was the last time we would see Paul for a long time.
