~CATES POV~
"I guess you really do have to go to England now don't you?" Violet whispered holding back the tears. I looked at her trying to hold back my own tears "I'm never goin to see you again!" she blurts out the years streaming down her face.
I crawl across my bed and put my arms across her shaking shoulders. "Ssh Shh we will be able to see each other again" I say hoping to calm her down. Nope, her shoulders just shake more. "Well I can ask Uncle Simon if you can visit sometime". She looks at me with a hopeful face.
"Now go pick me something to wear! He said we were leaving in an hour. SHOO!"
A small grin spreads over her face "Yes Ma'am!" she says standing up and saluting me before marching over to my bags. I just giggle and head into my bathroom. I turn on the shower thinking about how this is the last time I would ever be using this bathroom. I slip into the shower thinking of all the last times at this house. I can't help it and the tears roll down my face to be mixed into the water.
~VIOLETS POV~
I shift through her bags trying to find her something to wear. Since she decided to let me pick I was going to totally make it to wear she HAS to wear it. I pull out her white skinny jeans and then a a black vneck tshirt. I pair it off with my special touch, bright neon green converse. Now to make sure she doesn't change the outfit..
"One Direction people!!" I yell out running down the stairs, gracefully running smack-face into the wall, falling down. Good going Violet, I think while someone is helping me off the ground. I'm spun around to face green eyes and curly locks.
"Are you okay?" he asks like he was totally worried. I look up and down his face and back to his eyes.
"Yeah" I breathed still staring at his eyes. His hands were on my shoulders. Someone clears their throat, breaking us from the moment. Was it a moment? I shake my head, turning to face the other boys.
"Sorry bout that" I explain "Not the most graceful person, it happens daily" I break Harry's grip from my shoulders and walk to the middle of the living room. "So the reason I came falling down the stairs is that I need you guys help" I say. Then I turn to Simon "You are going to leave soon so the bags need to be in the car correct?" I question at me. He nods silently. "Well you saw the man! MUSH MUSH!" I say gesturing for the boys to go upstairs. They look at me like I'm crazy. "I'm not crazy you know" I say narrowing my eyes and crossing my arms. That quickly gets them moving up the stairs and in a few moments they are coming back down and heading out the door with their arms filled with bags.
~NIALLS POV~
After we had put the bags up we came and sat back down in the living room with Simon, who was fully engrossed in the news and Violet who was sitting peacefully until Louis went over and almost sat on top of her.
"Hi Violet!" Louis shouted looking at her. She inched further into the side of couch, clearly uncomfortable with Louis being right beside her.
"Erm.. Hi?" she said. She was really looking uncomfortable now.
"So um tell us about yourself I guess" I said hoping to make her feel at ease. She tenses up. I guess it was the wrong question to ask. Too late now.
"Well I'm 17, 18 next month. I moved here when I was five. I'm only allowed to watch cartoon movies. I like bright colors. My favorite animal is a panda and I would rather sit on a couch and watch tv than go outside. I'm not very graceful, you all got to see that and well I like purple I guess" she finishes putting her hand up to her purple streak of hair. Zayn nods his head as he if he agrees with everything she just said and Louis stands up and puts his hands on her hair.
"Um Louis" I say "What excactly are you doing?"
"Reading her mind" he states patting her head.
Reading my mind? She mouthed to me. I just shrug. "Just go along with it. Thats usally faster then asking questions" I say
"Aha!!" he shouts suddenly causing Harry and Liamto jump.
"Aha what?" Cate says climbing down the stairs. Her blonde hair was pulled Ito a sloppy ponytail. She looked really nice with the jeans hugging her hips and everything.
"So your ready to go?" Simon asks standing up.
She sighs "Not really but I know you've already got a plane booked and stuff." And with that she starts crying, big tears rolling down her face. I was going to give her a hug but Violet beats me too it, putting her arms around Cates small figure and rubbing her back. I look back at the boys and see we all are thinking th ease thing. And so for the second time that day we all group hugged.
~CATES POV~
It had been awhile since we had left my house. I hadn't said anything the entire time fearing every time I would speak I would start crying again. So instead I listened to boys talk which was quite interesting beacuse I learned a few things.
Niall could apparently fly and had magical leperchaun powers.
Zayn couldn't live without his mirror.
Liam once cried because the waiter at a resturaunt made him use a spoon.
Louis and Harry had a 'bromance' and they were called Larry Stylinson.
We finally got to the airport where we were meet by bodyguards. I guess these guys were bigger than I thought. And the fans screams inside proved me wrong. I seriously thought my ears would fall off. Finally we were on the plane and I had just settled into a window seat when I felt someone flop down beside me.
~LOUIS POV~
"Hey" I grinned at Cate, who gave me a small smile in return and a quiet "hi". "So.. Do you like carrots?" I asked the most important question in the universe. She looks over at me.
"Why?"
"Well becuase I can't be friends with someone who doesn't like carrots" I grin like an idiot. What I do for my carrots.
"Then I guess you should leave now" she says sadly before turning to look out the windonw. It was my turn to ask why now.
"Why?"
"I'm deathly allergic to them, if you breathe on my after eating carrots I have a reaction." she states calmly looking back over at me.
"Well um.." I say trying to change the subject "Are you excited about london?" tears start swelling up in her eyes and they brim over. I reach over to hug her "Dont cry love it's going to be alright" I say rubbing her back. We stay like that, her huddled against me and me hugging her. Eventually her cries quiet down. I look at her and relize she had fallen asleep. We did have quite sometime until we landed. I settle myself in the chair, still holding Cate. And using her head as a pillow, I drifted into sleep.
