My Chance - The Vamps fanfiction

Chapter 39

Now that the secret about my relationship was out to the fandom I was receiving messages everyday asking about how I was coping with the long distance and how we even got together. The majority of the fans were supportive but obviously there were the ones who had never liked me who didn’t think I deserved someone like Brad and they were right. The McFly boys had arrived in California and called me up to arrange somewhere to meet up. They weren’t as well known over in America so it was a lot easier to go out with them.

I found myself in a slightly worrying routine. Waking up 10 minutes before I had to leave for collage, only having time to chuck some clothes on and brush my hair, I skipped breakfast and by the time it got to lunch I was usually starving but I only had time to grab an apple from the canteen before rushing off to finish the project I was currently working on. Basically I was surviving on an apple a day, having no time to eat anything at all as I was constantly working to try and keep up with all the impossible tasks I was being set.

Sundays were my day off, my day of rest; in all honesty I usually spent the whole day doing homework seeing that it was now my only free time. Today I decided to take the day off and meet McFly at the hotel they were staying at just so we could have a relaxing day together and not be mobbed by fans. I had been there for a few hours before I found myself sat in the kitchen with Tom and Dougie whilst they prepared something for lunch and Harry and Danny played video games in the living room.

“So Doug, how’s the lizard business going?” I asked, starting a conversation with the two of them.

“Not too good, I can’t keep an eye on them because of all this travelling. Apparently they keep dying,” he sighed dramatically which lead to Tom hitting him round the head with a tea towel.

“Damn, you should have got Connor to look after them, I’m sure Rex could use the company.” I laughed throwing a loose tea bag at the back of Toms head.

“Where did that come from? And why did you throw it at me?” Tom bent over and picked up the tea bag and chucking it back on the side.

“I found it on the top and I threw it at you because you hit Dougie.” I playfully glared at him whilst he stuck his tongue out at me.

“Yeah, don’t be such a bully Thomas.” Dougie whined whilst putting on a child’s voice.

“Shut up you two.” Tom laughed turning back to the pasta which was cooking on the stove.

“How long until the baby’s due Tom?” I asked picking up a more serious topic of conversation.

“A MONTH” he squealed excitedly. “I’M GOING TO BE A DADDY IN A MONTH”

“I literally can’t wait for baby Fletcher to come along!” I grinned, laughing at Tom’s over enthusiastic reaction.

“I’m so excited! I want to give birth.” Tom yelled, a wild smile spreading over his face.

“You’re so weird,” I laughed along with Dougie as Tom excitedly went on about how excited he was for the baby to be born.

“Elle, you’re phones ringing.” Danny called from the living room, I rushed out of the kitchen as quickly as I could so I didn’t miss the call.

“Hello?” I asked, not having time to look at the caller ID.

“Good afternoon Elle.” Mr Archer’s voice was loud and I could hear a lot o background noise, it was obviously busy in the office today. “I was just ringing to remind you that you have your first modelling shoot tomorrow.”

“Yes, I remember.” I told him shortly, I didn’t mean to be rude but he had been nagging me all week, constantly reminding me. It was like I never had a minute to myself.

“Good. But to avoid any bloating we must insist that you don’t have anything to eat 24 hours before hand. And only drink water.” He didn’t say anything else before hanging up. My boss wasn’t one for niceties, he was always to the point but I only saw it as a positive, there was no beating around the bush.

“Who was it?” Harry asked curiously, although his focus was still on defeating some evil monster him and Danny were trying to defeat on their video game.

“My boss, I’ve got to go boys, I’ll see you around” I sighed; Dougie and Tom emerged from the kitchen whilst the other two paused their video game and stood up.

“What about lunch?” Tom asked, looking concerned.

“I’ll get something on the way back.” I lied. “Thanks for having me though.” I hugged each of them in turn and headed to the door to let myself out.
