*Graduation Day*

"I'm so excited! I can't believe this day has finally come!" I squeal to Kayla and Tori. Tori and I are a little bummed that our boyfriends couldn't make it, but Connor is here, so that'll still be pretty cool. And Charlie flew my dad and my brother out here. We all have our gowns and smiles on. 

As I walk out on the stage, I spot Niall, Harry, and Zayn in one of the middle rows. I smile and continue what I'm supposed to do. 

After the whole program is over, Niall, Harry, and Connor come find us. Everyone seems to be giving me dirty looks. My phone buzzes and I pull it out of my bag.

Everyone knows that it was Allie that gave Niall a broken arm, right?

How can a girl that small break a man's arm?!

She obviously did it on purpose, she just wanted to make him miserable, that's all she does anymore.

Well I didn't know I made him miserable. I frown at my phone and put it back in my purse. 

"You okay?" Niall asks me, taking my hand.

I nod then try to change the subject, "So how'd you guys get the time off? Don't you have a show tonight?"

"We begged Paul to let us come and we promised we would be back before the show. So we just have to get to the airport by 4."

"Oh, I have to pick my friends up at 4 if you want a ride." I smile.

"That would be awesome! But we still have an hour, so maybe we can go get something to eat?"

"Wait, I'm confused, you want to get something eat? I'm confused, that doesn't really seem like you." I laugh.

He laughs and sticks his tongue out at me. Everyone piles into my car and we head out to eat. 

"So these friends that are coming to visit? Are they pretty?" Harry asks.

"Um, don't you have a girlfriend?" I ask looking at Tori.

"Well, Louis and Liam are single. And hopefully Zayn soon." Harry rolls his eyes.

"So do we all agree we don't like her then?" I ask.

"Yeah, you should see the way Zayn has been acting on tour this time around. It's driving everyone mad!"

"Why don't you figure out a way to show him who she really is?" Connor suggests.

"How?" I ask.

"Well, most smart phones have apps now for voice recording. And, sometimes I hide cameras when I make videos, if you want to try that."

"We could try both, if everyone's up for it. We can do the spying," I point to the girls, "And you guys can show him the material we get." I say to Harry and Niall. 

"Let's do it." Niall nods. 

We talk about our plan some more and when I look at my phone, it's 3:30 and the airport is 25 minutes away. "Guys, it's 3:30, we should probably go."

"Oh, yeah. Lets's go." We pay the check and go out to the car. Niall and I sit in the front and everyone else in the back.

"So, you're going to have your dad, your brother, and your friends staying at your house?" Niall asks.

"Yeah, and our house is so small, it's gonna be hard."

"Ya know, if you want, you could use my house."

"Niall, that's your house, I don't want to be barging in."

"Ok, one, I'm not even going to be there, so it's not barging. Two, you're there all the time anyway. And three, how cool would it be for your friends to be staying in my house."
