The 1D Soccer Team

Double Date

Since I was sleep deprived last night, or this morning I guess, I pretty much was nocturnal the whole day. It took 4 times of my Mom coming in and telling me to get up and telling me how I was sleeping my day away to finally make me crack my eyes.

I dragged myself out of the bed to the bathroom I share with my sister, Mishaal . She was in college though she pretty much stayed at home instead of her dorm . She complained her roommate was too messy and was always going through her stuff, but I think she just missed us too much to leave.

When I walked in she was staring at her reflection in the wide mirror applying eyeshadow for a smokey eye look. When she saw me she placed her tiny brush down and gave me her best smug look.

"Hey Ren, Mom told me your were up last night talking to Naomi. I could here you laughing and it sure, didn't sound like Naomi to me."

When Mishaal was in high school she did all kinds of stupid things. Parties, Drinking, Illegal stuff that still left an odor in her closet , she was a legend at my school. Overall, she made worse mistakes than I ever did .I felt like I what I did could never be as bad as anything she's done.

I explained to her at the soccer match and how I gave Harry my phone number. I intentionally left out the fact that I sort of liked Niall.
"NO FUCKING WAY! Are you Shitting me? I swear don't joke like that!" She screamed.

"No I am not kidding! And can you please stop with your swearing? There an infant child 2 doors down." I hissed sending he a glare to shut up.

My little brother Alec, had his 4th birthday last week. I kept asking my Mom why he should even have one since he's not old enough to remember it. She gladly spent the money anyway, saying,' He needs to be a social able child! We don't want him to grow up and be like you who'd rather play that Fifa game than go to the Mall!"

Mishaal rolled her eyes not caring about the influence she gave. "Hey you said he's meeting you at Little Italy downtown, at 3 right ?"

" Uh.. Yeah 3pm today."

"You are aware that it's 2:49? "She asked raising her pierced eyebrow.

"Holy Fudge, I got to get ready! I have nothing to wear! Can you drive me? "I panicked. I looked down at my pajamas, my Winnie the Pooh top, and Donut boy shorts weren't gonna cut it.

She rolled here eyes and gave a dramatic sigh." Fine if I must. though I want to meet this Playboy."

I scowled,"He's not a Playboy he just simply has women who really like him," I said, trying to pull my 'I ❤Carbs' shirt over my head, I threw on some ChiQle Light Blue Shinny Jeans and put on my terribly beat up Vans. I didn't really have a lot of time to stand in the mirror for 20 minutes playing with makeup so I messily applied mascara and shoved my hair up in a messy bun.

I started running to the door, but stopped when I realized I forgot something. I growled at my bad luck, running up stairs again.

Alec, we peacefully playing with his Mike the Knight stuff animal, while watching Disney Jr . He turned to look at me," Laurie what ar you doin'?"

I grumbled a quick," We're leaving Al."

I picked him up and holding him securely while running out the room. We were so close to being out of the house when I heard him shout," Mike! We forget Mike!"

"You can get him later Alec!"

"But Mikey needs me..." Alec started to tear up, and I felt bad for pulling him from his daily routine for my own selfish needs. I sighed excepting the fact that I'd be late.

My tired legs, worked to their limit from running up the stairs, went one last time to go get my little brother's toy. He squeezed it close to his chest, lazily smiling. "Thank you," he mumbled.

I smiled a little, happy that I could help." no prob."

We finally got to Mishaal's red Camry Hybrid. I hastily put Alec in his car seat, an expert now at buckling the pieces together. Finally, I climbed in the front huffing from exhaustion.

"What took you so long?" Mishaal asked sarcastically, smirking at my pain.

"Give me a brake it took 10 minutes, " I sighed.

The car ride was anything but peaceful, she wanted to make sure I at least knew all of their names so I didn't look completely oblivious. I didn't really know Zayn and Liam that well but I soon caught on. I did learn a lot about Niall that I didn't know, like his last name. It took me a while to learn how to say it because I kept saying whore by accident.

Alec giggled asking what a whore was and I was going to tell him not to worry about it right now, but Mishaal who keeps trying to ruin his innocence, said "A person who's thirsty and sleeps with everyone."

His eyes widened." what's so bad about sleeping with a person? When I have bad dreams, I sleep with mommy. And I'm thirty right now because I did'n get my Apple Juice bottle."

Fuck, I knew I forgot something! Alec's bag with his bottle, toys, and extra pants in case he couldn't hold it.... I just  hope he can hold it. I thought angrily.

Mishaal read my mind." Ohh your screwed."

By the time we pulled up to the café I was pretty much a Die-hard Directioner. I got out the car looking for the black van I saw at the soccer match. The second kind of car I went looking was a Lamborghini, which I didn't see either.

We walked into the restaurant and I saw a guy with a head of curly hair shoved into a green beanie, staring at his phone, his fingers dancing on the screen. I told the waitress that we were with him and she guided us to his table. I gently tapped his shoulder and he jumped obviously focused on whatever he was doing.

"Hey Lauren," He greeted then saw Mishaal and added,"And friend."

Alec was hidden behind my legs but they didn't quite cover him all the way. Harry saw Alec, and smiled at the shy boy. He waved at him awkwardly." Hello there mate."

I felt like introductions were in order.
"Harry Mishaal, Mishaal Harry." I moved over unexpectedly so Alec was left in the open. "Alec this is Harry. He's British you know? Just like Special Agent Oso." He face lit up so much I thought I was gonna be blinded.

"Have you met Agent Oso before?  one time he had to save London by stopping Octo, and he took him out with the help or Private Reso..." Alec rambled on, about his fictional character while I just smirked because Disney Channel didn't Air in the UK so Harry didn't know what he was talking about.

Soon Harry gave up on trying to hold a conversation about an animated show he'd never seen before. He turned to Mishaal.

"Hello, you but be Lauren's sister." He stated shaking her hand politely.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Harold," She flirted.

I rolled my eyes and took a seat next to Mishaal across the table from Harry.

I placed Alec on my lap, since he demanded that he was old enough not to need a booster. Their was on empty chair beside Harry with a menu on it.

"Um Harry why is there and extra menu there." I asked.

"Oh Niall sitting there, he went to go take a wee. I don't know what's taking him so long."He replied oh so calmly.

"What the Hell is wrong with you ?! I told you I don't like him!" I screeched loudly forgetting about my younger sibling. My outburst attracted a lot of attention I guess, beside us some guy on a date gave me an angering glare.

Mishaal being the bad-ass she had to flip him off ."You gotta problem you motherfucker? Leave us alone and look at that ugly girl you call your girlfriend."

I quickly covered Alec's ears refusing for him to lose his clean vocabulary.

"We'll I see where Lauren here gets her yelling from."Harry joked.

"Shut up! I am not talking to you! Why did you invite him here? I told you I don't like him."I stormed.

"Yes I do remember you saying that. But I don't believe you ." He simply answered, giving me an Your-A-Big-Fat- Liar look.

I was about to go off on him like Mishaal had to that poor guy and his date, but just then the Men's bathroom door swings open and lo and behold, Niall Horan walked out .
