You open the cold wooden door and are instantly greeted by two warm arms that grapple you and you tight

"HAYLEE!" the voice calls, the arms release around you and you see Rhea's smiling face. Her beautiful brown hair was down towards her shoulders with a few short pieces hanging around her face.

"RE-RE!" you call back to her, that was Rhea's nickname you used since high school

"I haven't seen you in ages!" you say as you give her another hug. Rhea didn't live far away from you, but she was always busy so you didn't get many chances to visit. Actually when you think about it, most of your friends were always busy, most of them were away at uni or somewhere striving to achieve their dreams. You on the other hand are still trying to decide what you want to do with your life. You've always wanted to be an actress, but that dream is slowly fading as it slips between your fingers. You have had a few commercials though, that's how you pay for rent and food, but you're longing for your big brake on stage or in a movie. Your room mate Shayleigh is off in LA working along side some of the biggest directors, you were going to go with her, but changed your mind as you thought you might be needed here. You were wrong of course; these boys would be fine without you, or so you thought...

You had completely zoned out, but something pulls you back in when you see a figure tagging shortly behind Rhea. It was Joe, her long term boyfriend.

"Joe!" you say as you give him a short hug

"I hope you've been treating my girl right!" you tell him

"As always!" he replies to you, he gives Rhea a kiss on the cheek, they were so cute together! Joe was the sweetest guy you know, and you know he would never do ANYTHING to harm Rhea!

All the others pile through the door and exchange quick hugs and 'hello's with Rhea and Joe, Rhea had known the boys for almost as long as you have, she grew up with you and Harry as well, and the boys had also met Joe on a few occasions.

"So how's Shayleigh doing?" you ask Rhea, Shayleigh changes her number all the time, but Rhea keeps in contact with her. You've tried to remain in in touch but it's so hard to reach her, so you haven't talked her her in at least two months.

"She's good. She's working on a movie that stars Emma Stone at the moment, she's having a blast!" Rhea looks a bit upset, you haven't seen Shayleigh in almost a year! You Shayleigh, Rhea and Harry were very close ever since you all were little. And you guess you're still trying to adjust to life without being so close and near to each other, well besides Harry who lives down the hall!

"Actually, did I tell you she's coming to the party?" Rhea's face instantly lights up as she tells you.

"NO!" you yell, you were shocked no one had told you about this! You wonder if Harry knew, you always thought Harry and Shayleigh had a thing for each other, but they would never admit it...

"Yeah, she got about a week off and is coming down tomorrow!" your heart fills with happiness, you haven't heard from Shayleigh in so long, and you couldn't wait to see her and find out all about what she's been doing!

You look around the room, and everyone seems to be doing their own thing. Louis and Zayn were talking to Joe, Harry and Niall were raiding Fimi and Louis' sweets, and Liam and Danielle were cuddling watching toy story on the couch. Well Danielle was cuddling him, Liam had his arms stretched out and you couldn't shake that feeling that Liam felt really uncomfortable and out of place... You must have been staring pretty intently as you didn't even notice that Fimi had walked up to you guys

"Hey Rhea!" she says as she gives Rhea a hug. Rhea and Fimi had known each other ever since Fimi started dating Louis which was about six months ago. The three of you always hung out together when you could to get away from everything, it's kinda tiring knowing one direction! You especially hated the press hounding you every time you were with Harry or the other boys! Fimi starts talking to Rhea again
