Confessions of a Fandom Freak: A One Direction Story

CONFESSION FIVE

CONFESSION FIVE

"Looks like none of you care to learn religion anymore," Ms Crew states, slumping in her chair.

"I don't care anymore either. You guys are graduating. Let's spend the period watching YouTube. Annie: close the blinds to the hallways so no one can see. Now I'm going to pass around a sheet and I want everyone to write down their favorite school appropriate YouTube video."

Is she serious? I state up, looking for someone to come out and say GOTCHA! ..... I literally have spent all year reading books on watt pad during the first period religion.

I have an AP test tomorrow but I'm sure to rock it. I mean, it's French. What can't I know I'm practically fluent at this stage.

I flip my hair to the side delicately, hoping to make it just get out of my face because it was beginning to frizz up. Stupid San Francisco and its unpredictable rain.

"Okay yeah just write down your favorite video," she says over the excited yelps of the entire class .

I hurriedly write down the Adventurous Adventures of One Direction as my choice, not caring anymore what people think of me and delve back into my realm of watt pad.

KevinThePigeon: Hey!!!!!!!

YouOnlyVivOnce: you're hyper

KevinThePigeon: YEAH! Paul said I could have a red bull so I did!

YouOnlyVivOnce: I'm scared. Who is this paul guy? Family?

KevinThePigeon: he's a.. friend.

I can only think of Paul Higgins as he mentions that. Of course, anything gets me thinking about One Direction.

YouOnlyVivOnce: IS HE PAULWAYS WATCHING?

KevinThePigeon: erm.. Yeah sure. So what are you up to?

YouOnlyVivOnce: I'm suffering in religion class. School.... Ugh

Suddenly, Ms. Crew turns on YouTube to put on the Evolution of Dance video as if all of us haven't already seen it. This is followed by Charlie bit my finger and Charlie the Unicorn. Only three more videos until the one I actually want to see.

KevinThePigeon: SCHOOL? I'm so sorry I didn't know. I'll text you later than? I keep forgetting that you still have to go to school. Then college right? K well Bye!

YouOnlyVivOnce: don't leave me! I need someone to talk to! I'm forever alone!!!

YouOnlyVivOnce: that sounded way less desperate in my head.

KevinThePigeon: no its cute

Cute? I flip out a little to myself,trying to calm myself as the class roars with laughter at the end of the "Where's the blueberries?" video.

After the video it's my turn, she anxiously types in Adventurous Adventures of One Direction. I squeal to the odd looks of Kaitlin and Ashley. Ashley is our supposed valedictorian but is the biggest bitch I know(besides Plastic Bieber).

"Hi. My name is Mark," begins the video and I mouth the words. A special talent of mine is the ability to quote all eighteen minutes of it. It's a weird talent I know but I graduate at the end of the month so I don't really need to hide anything anymore.

"Do you know all the words?" Ashley asks, raising a judgmental eyebrow.

"INTRODUCING TAC-OS!" I say, pointing to the smart board with my entire arm to get all the people to look at me.
