"So Rosie, I can tell you're not from around here, what brings you to good ol' Great Britain?"

"I seem to be getting that question a lot. I'm interning for the next few months on the film, and no, I'm not from here. I'm from the US."

"I reckon it must've been hard getting this position?"

"Four different interviews, three essays, and working two jobs almost 50 hours a week to save up." He made a silent 'wow' with his mouth.

"You must be a pretty impressive person." We were sat on the bench that I was previously sat on.

"Well I should go, it was nice meeting you Fionn." I got up from the bench.

"You too Rosie, I'll... see you around." He gave me a smile and I walked away.

I got into the elevator and pressed the button for the sixth floor. As the doors were about to close I heard a voice yell in the distance, "Hold the doors!" I stuck my hand out and stopped the doors from closing.

"Thank you. Floor 8 please." I pressed the button for the 8th floor. I didn't see who had walked in, I was on twitter minding my business.

"Oh hey, you're the girl Fionn knocked over." Again, I had recognized the voice. I looked up to see Harry giving me a happy grin. I probably looked like a crazy person because all I could do was stand there and look at him.

"Uh.. yeah, I mean... uh.. it was both of our faults, but yeah." I was struggling to speak.

"I'm Harry. What's your name?"

"I know- I mean, uh, I'm Rosie."

"Nice to meet you Rosie. Fionn's erm.. Fionn's a clumsy guy." He giggled.

"So you wouldn't be surprised if I told you that I bumped into him again just now?"

"Twice in one day? Now either he's clumsier than I thought or he's doing it on purpose." I laughed at his comment.

"Now, I wouldn't put all the blame on him. I'm equally at fault." He chuckled. The elevator doors opened signifying that I had reached my floor.

"It was nice meeting you Harry." I said as I walked out.

"You as well." The doors closed and I walked to my room. I knocked since I didn't have a key on me.

Izzy opened the door for me, "Hey where'd ya' go off to?" She asked.

"I was on the phone with my mom, then I ran into someone again."

"Again? You weren't carrying props this time were you?" She mocked.

"No I wasn't, and it was a small bump. I didn't fall on my ass like earlier?" I put my phone to charge and sat down on my bed.

"I didt thin k of ju az da clumzy typ" Izzy spoke while brushing her teeth.

"What?" I gave her a weird look. She went into the bathroom and rinsed her mouth.

"I said." she began, coming back into the room. "I didn't think of ya' as the clumsy type." She fell back onto her bed, checking her phone.

"Neither did I." I laughed. "And you'll never believe who it was?"

"Tell me.

"The SAME guy as earlier."

"Now to me, that's either a crazy coincidence, or destiny trying to tell ya' something."

"Don't be crazy." I got off the bed and went to grab some more comfortable clothes to sleep in. "Oh, also I met Harry Styles in the elevator."

"Is he as charming as he looks?" Izzy sat up.

"He's so sweet and just like.. a normal guy." I went into the bathroom and changed into my clothes. I then washed my hands and brushed my teeth. After I rinsed my face to give it a little clean. I didn't wear any makeup so I decided not to waste the little product that I did bring.

"Wait, tell me more about the guy you keep bumping into. What's his name?" Izzy asked me once I returned.

"Fionn, I don't know his last name but I'm pretty sure he's part of the cast." I got under the covers of the bed.

"I think I know who you're talking about, what does he look like?"

"Tall, brown hair, green eyes." I began. "He has cute little freckles too."

"Ahh yes. I know Fionn, he's a cute young boy." She laid back in her bed and turned off the lamp.

"Yeah I guess he is."

The next few days were just as busy. From rebuilding sets to running to get props. The weather was nice and there was a slight breeze in the air on this Friday morning.

The bell for lunch had just rang and I was on my way to the crew tent with Charlie and Lindsay. Walking over to the food table, I grabbed an apple, a sandwich, and a water bottle. I sat down by Derek and began eating.

"Hey America, a few of us are going out tonight to a local pub. Care to join?" He asked.

"Ehhh.. I don't know, I'm not big on going ou-"

"C'mon Rosie!" Lindsay begged. I wasn't sure, I wasn't big on partying or drinking. We didn't work on the weekends so it wouldn't be a big problem. Lindsay, Charlie, Izzy, and Derek were all looking at me hoping for a yes.

"Fiiineee." I said giving in. They all cheered and I laughed.

***********

I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body. I dried off and began to blow dry my hair. After drying, I straightened my hair and did my makeup. I did a basic bronzed look with no eyeliner, just eyeshadow and mascara. I then completed the look with lip gloss.

I walked back into the room and saw Izzy doing her hair. She had done her makeup already and changed into her clothes. She wore a silky red top with black jeans and small black heels.

"Damn girl you look good!" I told her. She laughed.

"Thank you, what are you wearing?"

"I'm not sure, I didn't bring many fancy clothes." I looked through my suitcase. It was mostly jeans, leggings, and t shirts.

"I should've told you about bringing some, sorry about that. Here, try this top on." She threw me a black top with thin straps. I grabbed some dark washed jeans and changed. When I came back Izzy had put some other black heels on the bed for me to put on.

"Now you're the one who looks stunning!"  I waved her off.

"Thanks Iz." Once we put on deodorant and perfume we walked out of the room grabbing our hotel keys. I didn't bring my purse because I didn't wanna carry it around all night. I put some money in my phone case and Izzy had the hotel room card in her's. She had one of those wallet-cases.

We met up with Derek, Charlie, and Lindsay in the lobby. Derek had his arm wrapped around a woman with brown hair and green eyes. I assumed that was Cindy.

"Hey America, I want you to meet my fiancée Cindy." I smiled at her and shook her hand.

"So nice to meet you." I told her.

"You as well." She had an Irish accent. We walked outside got into the car and drove to a bar/club about 5 minutes into town. It was currently 8:57 pm and dark out. As I got out of the car I could hear music playing from outside.

Let the fun begin.
