CHAPTER ELEVEN:
"Hey, mate! It's eight and Pam is here..." I wake up to Zayn waking Niall up.
I open my eyes surprised that I'm still in the same position I was in whenever I fell asleep.
We get up and get dressed. I wear the same shirt I slept in and borrowed a pair of Eleanor's high waisted shorts. I still have her pants I borrowed before... should probably give those back.
"This is Pam, our tutor." I shake her hand and then it hits me like a train. Today is Monday and I have school, which apparently I'm not going to today.
"I'm suppose to be at school right now." I glance at Niall, not sure of what to do.
"Oh, yeah." Liam chimes in laughing at the situation.
"No problem, hun. You can graduate early with the boys today. I'll call your school and set it up." I just look at her, shocked and unsure if I can really do it.
"How would that happen?" I ask still confused.
"You'll have to take a very long test, and make at least a score of 20 or higher. But the scale is based off of the entire test and the different sections... you basically have to ace the entire test." She explains the process, intimidating me.
"We're taking the test so we don't have to worry about school while we're on tour." Niall says while wrapping his arms around my waist. For a moment I smile to myself, but start to feel uncomfortable... he doesn't do it like Harry. I smile at him, then pull myself away and lean against the wall.
"Except me!" Louis includes himself from the other room. That doesn't surprise me, he's much older than the others.
He walks in the room hand in hand with Eleanor, "I'm taking it too, I'm going to tour with the boys and don't want to worry about school either. Hopefully the tests aren't too hard!" She laughs a little and I can't help but think of how perfect she is... makes me a little jealous.
"Come with us." Liam puts his hand on my shoulder. "You're already living with us, mine as well come on tour with us."
I look at him in shock, speechless.
"You don't have a choice, you're coming." He kisses my forehead and then walks away.
I look over and see Niall excited, I'm assuming he heard the conversation.
After things calmed down and after an hour of Pam's consistent phone calls and emails... she got the tests ready.
"I got all the tests!" We sit down at the kitchen table, as Louis leaves to go back to his room.
"No phones. No talking. You have two hours to complete all the sections... and don't even bother cheating, all the tests are different." She passes around pencils to us, "Once you finish, hand everything to me. You're two hours start... now!"
Everyone begins and nothing but the sound of pencils hitting paper are heard. Pam sits down at the end of the table and begins to read a magazine.
I look at the test.. all the words just blur together. I don't even know where to begin...
I finish all the questions as best as I can and turn it in... of course, I'm the last one to finish.
Pam slides the papers through a machine that digitally checks the answers and then she goes through another hour of phone calls.
"Want to know if you passed?" She says to everyone as she walks in the room. She takes us one by one into the living room to tell us.
First Niall, then Liam, Zayn, Eleanor.. and now it's my turn.
Everyone has already passed... hopefully I do too. I start to get extremely nervous as I walk into the room. I walk in and she has a very serious expression upon her face.
We make eye contact, "I'm sorry..." She says and my heart drops... I can't even speak.
