The Irish Lad: A One Direction Fan Fiction

Chapter 15

Katie's POV

We spent the better part of the morning driving from Sao Paulo, Brazil, to Rio de Janeiro. Danielle, Eleanor, Aileen and I were all sitting on a sectional that filled the back of the bus. Eleanor was playing with my hair.

"You've got pretty hair, Katie." said El.

"Thanks, but I love yours and Dani's hair!" I said.

"Thanks, Katie. I've only been your best friend for fifteen years." Aileen said sarcastically.

"I love your hair, too." I said with a laugh.

"Can I braid your hair?" Eleanor asked.

"Uh, sure. I guess." I said.

"Oh my god! El can I do your hair?" Dani said excitedly.

"Oh my gosh! Guys! Let's do a hair circle!" Eleanor said like an excited little girl.

"I've never done a hair circle!" I said, and they all stared at me in shock.

"You've NEVER done a hair circle?" Dani said. "You haven't lived!"

"I'll do Dani's hair, Dani can do El's hair, El can do Katie's hair, and Katie can do my hair!" Aileen said, and pretty soon we were sitting in a circle on the ground, giggling like teenagers. I liked that about hanging around with Eleanor and Danielle, because I always felt like they have been my friends forever. Sisters, even. We were talking and laughing, doing each other's hair. All the boys, excluding Harry came over.

"What are you girls doing?"

"HAIR CIRLCE!" We all said simulatenously, throwing everyone into another giggle fit.

"Looks like you've made some new friends, Katie." Niall observed.

"Are you kidding Niall? I think I found two sisters I never had." I said, and Niall smiled.

'Well, I'm glad they're not beating you up. Danielle and Eleanor have a history of bad behavior." He said with a laugh, and El kicked him in he knee. "See!" He laughed again.

"Niall, take a picture on my phone." He picked up my iPhone and we all smiled as he took a picture. 

"Alright, is everyone done?" Danielle asked, and we all nodded in response. We got up and looked at each other's hair styles. Aileen's was in a fishtail, Dani had a wild ponytail with all of her curls, El had a side bun, and my hair was in a side braid. We laughed and talked on the rest of the ride.

We arrived in Rio, and went straight up to our hotel rooms. "You seem to like Dani and El."

"They're really great friends. I like hanging out with them. Only so many people in the world understand what it's like to be a One Direction girlfriend." A knock sounded at the door, and I went to get it. Aileen ran inside.

"GUESS WHO JUST ASKED ME OUT! AND TO STAY WITH HIM TONIGHT!" She practically screamed.

"WHAT! NO! ZAYN?!?!"

"OF COUSE ZAYN!" We hugged and jumped around in a circle.

"This is perfect!"

"Oh my god! I know, right! Oh, and Dani and Eleanor want to know if you want to go shopping while the boys are at soundcheck."

"Of course! Niall, I'll see you after the show." I said, grabbing my purse and giving him a quick peck, leaving before he could say anything.

------------

The next day, we all decided to go to the beach. The boys had the day off. There was a patch of grass, and Niall and I decided to play a game of soccer. The boys, Leena and Paul joined us. The two teams were: me, Liam, Louis and Paul, and then Leena, Zayn, Harry and Niall. We got a radio and blasted it from the sideline. Niall and I were facing off first, and I had the ball.
