One Life, One Love- A One Direction/Josh Hutcherson Fanfic {ON HOLD}

Chapter 1

JENNIFER’S P.O.V 

In my head, I was thinking 10, 9, 8, 7... Counting down the last few seconds that were left until I finished Grade 12. RIING!!!  There it was! The sound that signalled my freedom! When the bell sounded, everyone threw their papers and books in the air, cliché, I know, but we did it anyway! My friends and I had agreed to meet up just outside of the school gate, so I grab my bag out of my locker, and throw all my books in the bin, glad to be out of school. When I got to the gate, I saw all my friends except for Sophia were there. Typical, I thought to myself, why are we always waiting for her? As me and the girls talk excitedly about our upcoming trip, Sophia chooses to make an appearance, finally. She comes rushing out of the gates; bag carelessly slung over one shoulder, talking on her mobile phone, like usual. I see Vanessa shoot Ella a smug look, they probably betted that she’d be on her phone when she came out. I guess Nessa won. Ella sighs as she reaches into her bag and pulls out $20, handing it over to Nessa. I giggle and grab Soph’s phone and quickly say into it, “Soph has to go. I’ll make sure she gets back to you!” quickly hanging up on whoever she had been talking to. Oh, if looks could kill, I’d be dead 20 times over! I grab her arm and practically drag her to my little Mini Cooper, where the other girls were already waiting excitedly. We were driving to my house to get our suitcases and bags and change my Mini for one of those hippie vans. Sophia squeals when she sees it and turns quickly to the other’s and says “It’s just like the one from the What Makes You Beautiful video clip!”

I roll my eyes dramatically while shaking my head at the same time, just to add effect. Soph and the other four girls were big time Directioners, while I was more into the less well known band JLS.

                                                                                                                                                                                       

SOPHIA’S P.O.V

Oh my gosh! I never knew that Ladybug (A/N: Ladybug is a nickname the girls have for Jennifer because she can either be a lady or a bug, depending on what mood she’s in) had a hippy van! This is so exciting! I’ve wanted to go in one for so long! Me, Nessa, Victoria and Ella are all having a massive fan-girl at the moment! We can’t believe that we get to go in a van that looks just like the one in the W.M.Y.B video clip! Jen quickly snaps us out of it and runs inside and up the stairs to her room where we had all our suitcases waiting. Today was the day we all move to London! We had been planning this since we were in Grade 8 and now it’s finally happening! We all grab our stuff and head back down to the waiting van. When we get there, we throw our stuff inside and turn around to be greeted by all of our families, which is quite a crowd! I look around and see my mum and dad waiting for me along with my older brother, Cory. I run towards them and get enveloped in a giant group hug! I’m trying not to cry, even though mum has tears streaming down her face, which doesn’t help/

ELLA’S P.O.V

When I turn around after putting my bags inside the van, I see my whole family waiting, among the other girls families too. My mum’s face is all red and puffy from crying already, and Blake, my younger brother, and Kate, my older sister, are standing coolly off to one side, trying to stay out of everyone’s way. My dad is just standing there, one arm wrapped around mum in an attempt to make her stop crying, and looking at me with a sad, yet happy at the same time, expression on his face. I sprint towards them and start crying freely as I bury my face into dad’s shoulder. Man, I was going to miss these guys!

VICTORIA’S P.O.V

I see Ella and Soph run off and turn around to see what the excitement is all about, only to be faced with a large group of people. Soph has run towards Mr and Mrs Davidson and her brother Cory, and Ella has run towards Mr and Mrs Blanchard, who have also managed to drag Blake away from his computer and Kate away from her work, to come say goodbye to Soph. I scan the crowd, looking for mum, dad and Jessica, who I can almost guarantee have come as well. I spot my dad’s head, which is poking up above everyone else’s as he is almost 2 metres tall, and run towards them. As I get there, they envelop me in hugs. It will be hard leaving them. I love my parents as well as my younger sister, though only by three minutes.

VANESSA’S P.O.V

Ella and Soph have run off, closely followed by Tori and I don’t know why. It’s only when I turn around that I realise everyone is here to see us off. My parents as well as Ashley, my younger sister, Owen, my older brother, and Mia, my older sister, are all here, as well as the other girls’ families. I rush towards them and hug each of them in turn, starting with my dad and finishing with Ashley. Ashley is still only 15, the youngest one of all of us. Mia is finishing her last year of University and Owen is finishing his first year. When I finish hugging Ashley, I go back to my dad and start all over again. I love them all to pieces and I don’t know how I’ll survive without them, but moving to London has always been my dream, so move to London I will.

JENNIFER’S P.O.V

All the other girls have run off, leaving me to take out and put the suitcases back in neatly, so they’ll all fit. It takes a while to do this, as each of us have about four bags each, apart from Soph, who has what seems like 50, but in reality is only six. She likes to pack heavy...apparently. After carefully rearranging the so they don’t fall out, I turn around to be met by crowd of 20 people. Right in the middle of all of them, I see my mum and dad, who are supposed to be at work. Mum is holding Madison’s, my four year old sister, hand and beside her is Dad, Lisa and Blaire. Lisa and Blaire are both older than me, but sometimes act like five year olds, for the amount of maturity they have. I take off at a run and jump into dad’s arms, who catches me, holding me bridal style. I was definitely a daddy’s girl. My family are the most important people in my world and I love them all to pieces. Lisa wanted to come to London with us, but I said that this was something that me and my friends were gonna do together. I look around at all the other girls, who are still saying their goodbyes, after saying goodbye to my parents, I walk over to Mr and Mrs (Kyle and Susan) Davidson and Cory, Soph’s family, and say goodbye to them. Next I go to Mr and Mrs (Chris and Melody) Evans and say goodbye to them, along with Jessica, who are Tori’s family. After them I head over to Ella’s family, Mr and Mrs (John and Marissa), Kate and Blake, and say my farewells to them. The last family I say goodbye to are Nessa’s. Though Soph is my best friend, Mr and Mrs (Mark and June) Styles, had always been like second parents to me. Ashley, Owen, Mia and I all say goodbye as well. I walk back to my family and give them each one last hug and a kiss on the cheek. I walk back to my hippy van and climb into the driver’s seat, waiting for the girls to finish their goodbyes. After waiting for about five minutes, we’re all in the van and are pulling out of the driveway. We wave one last time to everyone and then drive to Coolangatta Airport. I take in every detail of our Gold Coast home, saying goodbye to it as I drive along. One thing I knew for certain, I was never coming back.
