It All Started With Lou

Reality.

*Skyler's POV*

********

It's been a month and a half since I last saw Lou in person. We've been video chatting almost everyday and texting non-stop. She's my best friend. Even though she is older than me, I find her to be one of the best friends that I have ever had.

You want to know what's weird? I now have 5/5 on Twitter. It's really odd. All of the guys tweeted one day and I only sent one reply to each of them and I got a follow. It's really weird. Usually you have to spam the guys for them to notice you to get a follow. Whatever. I HAVE 5/5 BITCHES!!! AHHH! I'm so happy! Haha. I have over 2 million followers now. They all just beg for a DM to the guys and I don't really give it to them. They just beg and beg and it's annoying. They don't generally care about what I tweet. Only that I have 5/5 and that I have the power to DM their user to the guys.

What's also weird is that Niall replies to a lot of my tweets. Even when I complain he'll reply to my tweet and it seems like he generally cares. I find it really sweet, but it's sort of odd because he's famous and I'm not. I'm just a girl in a small town that is fat, ugly, and poor. Other people tell me the exact opposite of this besides the poor part because I am really poor and it's pretty well known. Ugh.

*Lou's POV*

Skyler texted me that she was sad and she called herself fat and UGLY. UM HELLO GIRL!! YOU ARE GORGEOUS! Ugh. She doesn't see it. It's the town she's in. It makes her feel this way. When I see her next, which will be soon, I'm going to make her feel gorgeous. She needs to know that she is pretty. If only I knew how to make her feel that way....

"Oh hey Ni!" I say to Niall. He was looking at his phone and smiling. Now that I'm thinking about it...he has been glued to his phone a lot lately.

"Hey Lou. What's up?" Niall said to me, still glued to his phone.

"Dammit Niall. You and that damn phone. What are you doing on it anyway?" I asked. I'm so frustrated with him always on his phone. He needs some human interaction.

"Uh...." He looks up at me. I give him a stern look and then he says, "nothing."

Okay that's it. I tackle Niall to the floor and grab for his phone. He tries to protect it from me, but I already have it. I run to a dressing room and lock myself in. Niall chases after me and bangs on the door. Now I can finally see what he's been up to on here.

Niall was on twitter...on a profile...it looks so familiar. Why is that? IT'S SKYLER'S PROFILE!

"NIALL! What the hell are you doing on Skyler's profile?!?!" I question him as I open the door.

"I... erm.. well.. uh..."

I stare him down and he gulps. GULPS. This is not good.

"You what?"

"IwaslookingatherprofilebecauseIreallylikeherandshealwaystweetsaboutherlifeandIlikeknowingwhat'sgoingonwithher." Niall rushes out.

"What was that? I don't speak guilty." I spit at him.

He cowers his head and admits what he was doing on Skyler's profile. "I was looking at her profile because I really like her and she always tweets about her life and I like knowing what goes on in her life. Is that okay?" He asked and looks at me with sorrow in his eyes.

"Awwww Niall!!!! My leprechaun has a little crush!! Aw!" It's so cute! He has a crush on one of my besties! They'd be so cute together!

Niall smiles and says "I wouldn't call it a crush."

"What would you call it then?"

"Love...."

"Love?!?!?! You don't even know her and she doesn't know you!"

"Well...I want to get to know her." Niall says, sheepishly.

"I think I can help you there..."

"Really?????"

"Hehe. Yeah, but you're gonna owe me big time. And if you break her heart, I break you. Got it?"

"Got it."

"Okay. So this is what I'm gonna do..."
