Swept in the Wrong Direction (One Direction Fanfiction)

Chapter 8

This one is short sorry. The next oen will be longer! :)

Cassandra has yet to show up for helping me out. I’m starting to get annoyed. How does she even think that I can do this on my own? It’s been two days since I saw her pop up in my room for the first time. I’ve kind of figured out a plan of sneaking into a concert that Zayn is playing. It’s definitely not going to be easy. Considering the fact that I already know how security is going to be helps.

“Cassandra!” I shout one last time.

A few moments pass and still nothing came; I sigh and start grabbing my things.  For fairy godmothers she’s the worst of them all. I started for the door way but as soon as I did my room filled with this cloud of smoke a loud coughing noise was made by two voices. Mine and Cassandra’s.

“You called?” She asked while rolling her eyes.

I glared at her, how can she even ask that? Of course I called for her; I’ve been trying for the last two days! I looked at her arms; she had five pink shopping bags that hung on each side of her arms. I can’t believe it. This whole time I’d been calling for help she’d been shopping?

“Really, that’s what you’ve been doing?!” I question and point to her bags.

“I needed new outfits; I can’t wear this for the rest of my life. It’s just dreadful, I need a new look.” She smirked.

She’s so stubborn I can’t stand it. I don’t care that she needs new outfit. I need her help but I can’t seem to tell her that. Good to know I’m just as stubborn as she is. I hate her sarcastic-ness it’s getting on my last nerves.

“What’s with you?” I ask.

“Excuse me?” She huffs.

“I called for you off and on for two whole days and you were off shopping. Aren’t you supposed to help me? I want my friends back! Heck, I want my life back.” I shout.

I collapse on my bed, tears started to stream down my face. Here I was crying, I put my head in my hands this has been the worst week of my life. I miss the way I could tell Kaleigh anything, I miss Liam’s maturity in always knowing what to do. I miss Harry’s way of always trying to get the girls, which normally he succeeds. I miss Zayn’s sense of humor. I miss Louis always cracking jokes and making me laugh. Out of all that I miss Kaleigh the most, her long brown hair that went a little past her shoulders and her bright blue eyes that sparkled when the light hit just right.

I’m mentally beating myself up. Why did I ever say that to Kaleigh? Looking back on what Harry and her did I realize that Harry was just doing that to make me happy. Then, I went and blew it and acted like a jerk in front of Kaleigh. Soon, I felt my bed sink a little; Cassandra was sitting next to me.

“Look, little things set me off. That’s why I’m sarcastic most of the time. I’m trying to get better that but obviously I’m not.” Cassandra said.

“Can you at least help me then? I asked while wiping my tears.”

She shook her head, “Once a wish is granted it’s almost guaranteed to stay that way.”

“No! There has to be a way I’ll do anything!”

“There may be a way but you have to figure it out on your own. It’s all about be careful what you wish for.”

 I sighed now knowing what it feels like to feel like you have nothing left. I’ve always thought that be careful what you wish for saying was a stupid saying. Before I’d think it was all some big joke. It’s not, it’s something real. I realize now that this one mistake is going to haunt my dreams. A whole fake universe that is slowly becoming a reality that I may not even get the chance to escape, I have to find a way to fix it.
