CARTER'S POV

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP

"Aaagh" I groaned. "Shut up I'm awake" I reached out and searched for my alarm clock. Finally hitting it. I sat up and stretched. Wait a diddly darn second. Where's Harry and Louis to wake me up...? They should be jumping around my bed and yelling? Okay, I'm suspicious.

I stumbled out of bed and opened my bedroom door. I narrowed my eyes and looked around. Waiting for one of them to jump out and make me piss my pants. I opened Louis' door and jumped back, thinking he'd pop out. His bed was made and his keys weren't on the dresser. Okay why isn't Lou here. "Harry..?" I called out.

What the fuck. Where is everyone? I staggered into the living room in my pajama shorts and loose t-shirt. Not to mention my hair, that was a disaster. I pulled out a chair at the counter and sat down. I layed my head down, but jerked up when my phone buzzed.

I grabbed it and checked the text.

Harry: Hey, do you know if she's left yet Louis? :) I've been waiting for a little while

I stared at it questionably. Waiting where. It buzzed again as I got two more texts

Harry: Shit, That was meant for Louis

Harry: Hahahaha.....bye

...What the fuck? I noticed a small slip of paper by my keys.

It had some address written on it with 'ASAP'. I changed into some sweatpants and put my hair in a messy bun.

I grabbed my keys and ran towards the door.

The address I found was to a coffee shop? I got out and opened the front doors. Everyone was seated and drinking coffee. There was a small platform and it looked like a performer was going to come out soon. It must be just a singer because the platforms not big enough for a band. Maybe one or two people.

I ordered a mocha and sat down, waiting for the performer too. I sipped my coffee and scrolled through my phone. The chair was pulled out next to me and the tall blonde sat down.

"Hey Niall, I didn't even see you walk in" I said, setting down my phone to talk to him.

"I like your..outfit?" Niall said, trying to sound polite.

I looked down. Oh yeah, I forgot.. I looked around and a few girls were giving me strange looks. "I was told to come here asap so I didn't really get dressed" I told him.

I picked up my phone again and started texting people. I kind of tuned everyone out, but I could hear a British accent from someone.

Niall hit me in the arm. "Ow what the hell was that for?!" I yelled at him, holding my arm.

"Isn't that..?" He pointed his finger behind me. I turned my head to look at the stage platform thingy.

"So I dedicated this song to a girl named Carter Brooks. She couldn't make it, but it's for her" Harry smiled. Woah Woah, he doesn't know I'm here? He probably can't see me, because of all these people and wait why is there so many people here, He must be pretty good. Should I stand up and wave or..?

Harry sat down on the stool next to the guitarist. He cleared his throat and the guitarist strummed lightly. Harry took a deep breathe before starting to sing.

Your hand fits in mine

Like it's made just for me

But bear this in mind

It was meant to be

And I'm joining up the dots with the freckles on your cheeks

And it all makes sense to me
