Gotta Be You (One Direction Fan Fiction)

Dinner Plans

 Not much to Michaela’s surprise the house was really anxious, because everyone was hungry. Callie was still not home yet and she was the only one who could cook. Sassy was being sassy and bossing Lizzy around trying to read a recipe for lemon chicken with rice and green beans. Michaela asked Sassy and Lizzy where Callie was, and both of them replied no. So Michaela tried her best to pitch in with the cooking. Then when they least expected it Callie came in through the door shouting, “Hey ya’ll I brought pizza! I hope ya’ll didn’t try to cook! I have really great news to tell ya’ll! I..” She looked at the mess in the kitchen and the burned chicken on the counter, and started laughing. Once Callie started laughing everyone else joined in because she has that laugh that everyone laughs at. Callie put the pizza down on the counter and started to pick up the mess made by Sassy and her attempt at cooking. Cleaning the mess took a long while, but the girls enjoyed their pizza all the while. When Callie had the chance to sit down, the girls decided to go around in a circle and describe their days to each other. Sassy started. She stood on the couch and started talking. “It all started.”

“What is it?” Lizzy wanted to know.

“Give me a second. I walked into Swish today, and guess who was sitting in my chair.”

“Who? Adele?” Michaela asked eagerly.

“No, the guy whose hair I bleached the wrong color.” All the girls looked around the room for tissues in case the story brought Sassy to tears. They were afraid something bad was going to happen.

“Don’t worry. We talked and he really liked the color. He was so sweet about it. I totally was weak at the knees. He was all like ‘I knew I needed my hair bleached again and I was walking to Nandos, when I saw your sign. Swish, star quality. I figured that I should get my hair bleached here, because I need star quality. I was not totally sure about the result, and I am sorry that I snapped at you. But I really do enjoy my hair. And all my fans like it also’. He wants me to always do his hair because I do a good job.”

“wow that’s great Sassy.”

“Yea I know, and Emily, my boss, was really proud of me. And is thinking of giving me a pay raise.”

“ It is your second day of work and your boss wants to give you a raise? Wow, this guy must really be a superstar.” Lizzy suddenly began singing Taylor Swift’s Superstar.

“Give me a photograph to hang on myyyy walllll. Superstar. So dim that spotlight tell me things like I, can’t take my eyes off of you. I’m no one special just another, wide eyed girl who’s desperately in love with you. Give me a photograph to hang on myyyy wallll. Superstar.” “Nice Lizzy, Really nice. So did you find out who the band is?”

“I did. I cannot tell you yet, but I meet with them tomorrow. I cannot wait. JD, is totally cool, and understood my worries about collaborating with them. So we will see what happens. Hey Callie, the pizza was really good, but I wanted a Southern home cooked meal tonight. I was really missing my family. Why were you late?”

“Just traffic.”

“You’re lying. I can tell. We will come back to you. So Michaela, how did home get home? It looked as though some guys dropped you off.”

“Well, They are coming over for dinner tomorrow, and we will have dinner with them and three of their friends. So Callie, for dinner I would like BBQ chicken, a salad with carrots, and pecan pie and vanilla ice cream. I want to treat them to a Southern dinner. And I do not know what sides, but I am sure you will be ok with going to the grocery store.”

“Michaela, I was going out tomorrow with this guy. I can’t cook. I don’t even have all the ingredients. No, Michaela, I am going out with.”

Then Callie’s phone went off.

 “Oh, here’s the guy now. Hey L. What’s up? You can’t go tomorrow? Ok that’s ok. How about Saturday? Oh, you have a concert you have to go to? Ok. That’s fine then later? All right, see you tomorrow. I am not mad. It’s fine. See you tomorrow. Well, Michaela I guess I can cook. So does that make you happy? Now we can all have dinner with random guys and their friends.”

“Great! I cannot wait. So do you think that you can get off of work early.” Callie’s phone went off again. She picked it up. “Hey Z, What’s up? Oh you can’t come in tomorrow. That’s totally ok! Do you want to make up another time another day? Yea you can get back to me on that. Sounds good. Well bye. And yes I did talk to L. Well, things like this happen, and my friends want me to cook a special dinner tomorrow. So I was going to ask if I could take the day off. This works out great. Ok. Bye.

Well I am going to call Sam and tell him about the new changes.” Callie walked up the stairs to go talk to Sam.

“ Well, life seems to be going great. So let’s go call our parents.” Sassy said. All the girls gathered around the new desktop, and each talked to her parents. Later that night as Sassy was getting her midnight snack of Twix, she walked by Lizzy’s room and heard crying.
