Last night I didn't actually go to bed till 2 am. I stayed up scrolling through tumblr and drawing pictures. You can imagine I wasn't so happy when I was awoken from my sleep by five loud voices bursting through my door.

I opened my eyes to see that I fell asleep with my laptop open and my sketch book opened to a picture I was drawing of the boys. It was almost done, just needed to add a few more details. Louis was the first to speak, "Hey Freya, do you still want to come with us to that interview today? We are leaving in like an hour so you better-wait. Is that a picture of us?" Before I could close my sketch book he snatched it out of my hands. "Oh my god Freya! This is amazing. It's almost like I'm looking at a black and white photograph! Did you spend all night drawing this?"

"No. That took me like two hours. I did however stay up drawing all of these" I say as I reach onto my night stand and pull out individual pictures of the boys. It wasn't much. It was just their faces and it cut off at the neck line of the t-shirts they were wearing in the photos I found on Google.

Harry thanked me then began taking a picture of the drawing, probably for twitter or Instagram. Niall ran out of the room saying something about hanging it up. Louis started hugging me and thanking me. Liam was looking at it amazed. Zayn was just admiring the picture of himself. They all thanked me again before I kicked them out to let me get ready. I grabbed my shower supplies out of my suitcase and walked into my bathroom.

Forty five minutes later and I was ready to go. I had on white skinny jeans, a black sweater with a cat on it, and black converse. My hair was a little damp but I was okay with that. I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and walked downstairs and into the kitchen.

The boys were sat at the island. Harry was cooking pancakes, Liam was reading a piece of paper, and the other three were on their phones. Harry turned around and spoke "Hey, this is the last batch so grab them quick. You can eat in the car."

"No thank you. I'm not really that hungry." I tell him then I feel my phone vibrate in my pocket. I pull it out to see a text from Louis

'Eat it.' I looked up to see him staring at me and holding one out. I chuckled and took it out of his hands, taking a very small bite while looking him in the eye. I swallow and put the pancake back on the plate. He scowled at me and I just went back to my phone.

Apparently being in a photo one of the boys posted and getting retweeted by one, gets you a lot of followers on twitter. I went from less than 100 to 10k over night. Silly fan girls. I could be just some fan that they just met and are never seeing again. I guess they are kind of smart considering I'm actually related to one of them.

I heard the sound of scraping and when I looked up the boys were getting up from their spots and Harry was putting the pan in the sink. I followed the boys outside the house and into an SUV that was parked outside. Liam, Zayn, and Niall were in the very back. Harry,me, and Louis were in the middle area. There was the driver and some other guy in the front. I pulled out my phone and opened my notes typing out one for Louis

'Yo Louis, whose that other guy in the front?' I passed him my phone. He read it then took my phone, typing back a response.

'Paul, our security guard' he slipped it back and and I nodded. I plugged my ear buds into my phone and put them in my ears and put "Boulevard Of Broken Dreams" on by Green Day. Louis took one of my earbuds out and placed it in his ear. We stayed like that the whole car ride. He made some strange faces when specific songs came on like "Hospital For Soul" and "Can You Feel My Heart" by Bring Me The Horizon. He kept it in his ear though.

When we got there, I unplugged the ear buds the pulled it out of our ears. We got out of the car and were lead right into the building. Down a few hallways and through a black door that said 'stage' and were were in front of a large stage with many cameras and people around and on it. Louis put his arm around me and we walked up to a tall lady with bleached blonde hair and pink skirt with a matching jacket.

"Hi I'm Averie. I'll be your interviewer for today. I know who all you boys are but whose this pretty girl?"

"This is my sister Freya. I'm going to leave it at that. If you want to know more you can ask during the interview" Louis said not removing his arm from me.

"Oh really? If we need to, can we invite her on stage later?"

Before I could even respond Louis answers. "Of course. Wait till towards the end though" Averie nodded then the boys were called into makeup. Louis didn't let go of me till we were in the dressing room and the door was closed.

"Um Louis, why did you say I would come on stage? I hate being in front of cameras!"

"I'm sorry! I think it would be best if people also heard your side of the story." He got down on his knees and grabbed my hands. "Pretty please?"

I let out a big sigh "fine. Tell me what is and isn't allowed and what to do." Louis clapped and sat me on a couch with the rest of his band. They all took turns giving me advice about stage fright. I was really interested in Harry's though.

"If you get scared, just grab my hand and squeeze. It'll distract you" I don't know why but the thought of holding Harry's hand made me very happy. The guys were called to stage and I followed them out. The boys were starting on the couch but I had to walk through a specific place when I was called on.

The interview already started when I was getting a mic attached to me. It was now twenty minutes later when I heard the interviewer ask "So Louis, I heard you have some very big news to share with your fans. Care to explain?"

"Oh well actually it just happened yesterday. Well the main thing did. The thing is, my sister was kidnapped at age two and we were just reunited yesterday."

"Oh really? That must have been exciting. Why don't we bring her out here?" Averie made a motion to the door I had to walk through and the sound guy told me to start walking and that my mic was on. In just a few seconds I was in clear view of the bright lights and the cameras. I walked over to the couch that held the boys and slipped in between the arm rest and Harry.

As the interview asked more and more questions I began feeling even more nervous and I guess Harry could tell be cause he grabbed my hand and I squeezed back.

Hard.

I'm not sure what it was but the second Harry's hand touched mine, I felt tingles shoot up through my arm and spread through my whole body. It helped me calm down a lot. Nobody noticed that we were holding hands which I was thankful for.

"So Freya, tell me, how did you react when you found out you were related to THE Louis Tomlinson?"

"Well I actually didn't even know what he was from to be honest. When I was told my real last name, I couldn't help but think of how familiar it was. Then when we went to his house with the boys, I found out. They had to say their band name before I realized. Everybody was laughing and I had to admit, I felt a little stupid but everything clicked once I was told. There was no 'OMG it's 1D' fan girling moment. I just accepted the fact that I had to share my older brother with the world."

"That's sweet. Now you were only two when you were kidnapped, do you remember anything from before that?"

"No I don't. I did feel a connection when I hugged my parents and an even stronger one when I hugged Louis. I've only been with them for a day but I can already tell that Louis is going to be the older brother I've always wanted." Averie awed and Louis stood up and pulled me with him to hug me. The boys and Averie awed even louder and Averie let us continue hugging while she signed off. I heard some guy in the distance yell 'it's a wrap' and Louis and I pulled away.

"That was great, Freya. You did wonderful. I'm so proud of you. I promise I will be that older brother you've always wanted." He kissed my forehead and the boys all stood up when Averie walked back over to us.

"That was great guys. We'll put that on our YouTube channel at exactly 1pm today. Have a good day!" and with that she walked back off and into her dressing room. We were all escorted out off the building and to the car. Along the way, Harry grabbed my hand again. Those tingles I mentioned earlier came back. I like the feeling of my hand in his. We were at the back so nobody noticed us.

When we got back to the car, we let go. The seating arrangement was the same. Louis and I ended up sharing ear buds again. This time we started with "The Kids From Yesterday" by MCR. When we got back to the house it was half an hour till the interview would be up so we decided to just go up to our rooms.
