~ Chapter 4 - You Took Us Where? ~*

The next morning I woke up to Jayda shaking me ferociously, "Ellie, wake up. Liam and the boys are going to be here in about an hour."

I shot up and out of my bed. "One HOUR?!" I yelled at her, running to my bathroom and turned the faucet in the shower on.

"Sorry!" squeaked Jayda.

I ran back out of the bathroom and pushed her out of my room, closing the door behind her, "You expect me to get ready in one hour! Girl, you gotta get me up earlier next time!" I yelled through the door and stripped down and stepped into the shower.

I quickly soaped up, then rinsed down, taking the quickest shower known to man - kind and climbed out of the shower, wrapping a towel around my chest.

After I dried off, I pulled on some undergarments and dried my hair with the towel. After shaking my hair out, I quickly ran it under the hair dryer until the moisture was gone and I shuffled through my closet.

What would a girl like me, wear to spend the day with One Direction, I thought.

After a few quick minutes of consideration, I decided on a pair of casually ripped skinny jeans that were colored in a dark wash tone. I then matched it with a rose colored blouse that looked similar to a billowy tank - top. Underneath, I wore a white camisole and my look was almost complete.

I added a pair of strappy wedges and a silver dog tag necklace with 'LivLoud' engraved into one side. After adding diamond studs to my ears, I used my curling iron to add large waves to my hair and then pinned back my bangs.

Perfect, I thought, smiling to myself.

Just then my phone went off, and I ran to the table I plugged it in at last night.

"Hello?"

"'Ello! It's Harry!"

"Oh, hi!" I said, smiling into my phone.

"We're at your flat. Are you ready?" Harry's voice said through the phone.

"I am. I'm not sure about Jayda though."

"She's already with us."

"Wait, what?"

A laugh echoed through, "I said she's already with us. As soon as she saw us pull up, Jayda came running out. If I didn't know any better, I'd say she's excited."

"Yep," I answered, "I'll be down in a minute. Just gotta grab something."

"See you soon!" was the last thing he said before hanging up.

I quickly shoved my iPhone into my back pocket and grabbed a pair of aviators before heading out of my bedroom and out of my flat. My eyes quickly found their car or should I say van.

I saw their shadows dash back and forth through the windows, the van rocking back and forth because of the movement.

A smile crossed my face as I headed to them, pushing my sunglasses down over my eyes.

"Ellie!" Louis called through the passenger seat window.

I raised my hand in a greeting and the back door slid open and I jumped in, the door sliding closed behind me.

I looked up, and saw six smiling faces looking back at me. "Hi, Ellie!" they all said simultaneously and Zayn added, "Vas happenin'?"

I laughed and took a seat between Harry and Niall. "Hey, guys." I looked at Jayda and I gave her a fake glare, "Jayda."

She caught on and did the same, "Ellie."

Liam looked between the both of us and Louis called back, "What got you two in a bunch?"

Both Jayda and I started cracking up and we bumped knuckles, "Nothing. We're just weird like that."

Harry nudged me with a grin, "Great! You'll fit in with us well then!"

Jayda and I started laughing again and after we calmed down, she asked, "So where are we going?"

Louis looked in the rear-view mirror at us, "Super secret surprise," he grinned.

"I hate surprises," I mumbled softly.

"What?" Niall asked, tilting his head at me.

"Nothing," I smiled.

"Lou!" Zayn caleld, "Turn on the radio!"

"Gotcha!" he called and blasted on the radio and onto a random station.

Of course, What Makes You Beautiful turns on and all the boys' faces lit up. I quickly pulled out my iPhone and started recording.

They all started singing in crazy voices, defiantly not like the recorded version, and when I swept my camera around, they all gave wacky faces and I started laughing.

After the song ended I clicked the pause button, "That's a wrap," I giggled and stuffed my phone away again.

"Perfect!" Louis called from the front, "We're here! Boys you know what to do."

"Do what?" Jayda asked right before Zayn and Niall lept at me holding me down, and Harry and Liam held down Jayda. "I never thought I'd be mugged by One Direction," Jayda mumbled and Liam chuckled.

"Don't worry, babe, we aren't mugging you. You just can't see our super secret location."

Just then, Louis came around from the front and lept into the back seat and blindfolded both Jayda and I.

"You guys are crazy," I said to one of the boys, I'm not sure who though.

Niall laughed his adorable laugh, "Just wait, babe. You'll thank us later."

I sighed and felt my hands being pulled behind my back and tied, "Really?"

"Yes, really," Louis said from behind me.

After he finished, I felt myself being pulled to my feet and Zayn's voice said, "Ellie, duck." I did as I was told and with some help from Zayn, I got outside the car.

"You got her, mate?" Zayn asked and Niall, I'm assuming, nodded and slightly tightened his grip on my shoulder.

"Where are we?" I quietly asked Niall.

He leaned closer to me and I felt his warm breath on my neck, "Can't tell you."

I gave a small squealing noise and stomped my foot, "Not fair."

Before Niall could respond, the rest of the boys and Jayda had made their way next to me. The only reason I could tell; Jayda was having a fit and the other boys had to hold onto her to keep her from hurting herself since what I could tell, she too was blindfolded and tied.

"Do me a favor, and just keep calm," Niall said under his breath.

I nodded and we started walking. Less than sixty seconds later, Niall pulled me to a stop and we waited till Jayda was standing next to me. I felt Niall move behind me and Liam said, "Now boys, off with the blindfolds in three...two...one...OFF!"

I blinked a few times and looked at the sign in front of me.

"You brought us to....Nandos?"
