"They are genuinely One Direction, aren't they?" Lily asked me after a terrible ten seconds of silence. I nodded numbly. Would Lily tell the world? "This is so cool!" Lily said, a grin on her face. "Your brothers are famous!" I nodded again, but the boys had worried expressions on their faces. I held on to Lily's arms and dragged her to the living room. "Listen very carefully, Lily."
I started, so Lily's attention turned from the boys to me. "This thing is supposed to be a secret. A secret, do you hear me? No one was supposed to know. The boy's boss won't let them adopt, so if anyone found out about this, I'll need to go back to the orphanage. But since you've already found out..." I looked around, thinking of how to put it into words. "You can't ever tell anyone, OK? Not your parents, not anyone at all. You're the only person in the world that can know about this. Can you promise me? Lily?"
Lily came back from dreamland. "I promise." She said solemnly. "This is between us only. Of course, I don't want you to go back to the orphanage! You're my friend!" I smiled weakly, feeling relieved but still a bit shocked. This was the most important secret in my life! And Lily now knows about it. The amazing thing about the situation is that at least It's my best friend Lily who found out and not Vanessa. I wouldn't have to lie to Lily anymore. I knew I could trust Lily.
"So, do you want to meet my brothers, like, officially now?" "Sure!" We went back into the kitchen. "I guess you know who's who then, don't you?" I asked, smiling. "Hello, Lily," Harry said, standing up and giving Lily a hug. "Passion said a lot about you. It's nice to meet you. Are you a fan?" "Does it even matter, Harry?" I asked, sitting down on a chair. My knees felt weak after all the drama. "Of course!" He replied, "So, are you?" "Not exactly," Lily replied, "I like you but I'm not a crazy fan." "Good." Said Liam, "At least you didn't freak out just now. Other girls probably would've."
They chatted for a long time while I just drank some chocolate milk, listening to snippets of their conversation Lily took no time to get used to the boys, she just started chattering away like they've known each other forever. She got on particularly well with Harry and Niall, and they talked animatedly. After some time, I went to the living room for some peace and quiet. Zayn followed me too, and we sat down on the sofa.
"Why don't you stay there and talk?" I asked him. "I like to be by myself, or people that I really, really like. "Do I count?" "Of course you do. You're my sister!" "Me too, I just like to have time just by myself. I'm not really a people person." After an hour, the rest of the boys and Lily seemed to have almost run out of things to talk about. I went back into the kitchen. "So, Lily wanna go up to my room?" "Yeah!" She jumped up and I led her to my room. She sank down to a beanbag and looked around my room. "You're room is so awesome, Pash!" She exclaimed. "I know, right? The boys did it by themselves!" "Lucky! I wished One Direction adopted me! Wonder what Vanessa would say if she found out you're actually the sister of One Direction? She'd be so jealous!"
I narrowed my eyes at her. "You're not going to tell her, are you?" "Of course not! I just imagined how she would react if I did!" We spent the next hour trying on all the clothes in my closet, and we had a lot of fun. It was what I always imagined how hanging out with a friend would be like. When we got tired of trying on clothes, we sat on my bed and just talked. "What are they like as brothers?" Lily asked me. "Really nice and caring, a lot of fun too," I replied.
"I like them," Lily said. "Do you think we could go to the concert tonight together?" I had just told her that the boys would be having a concert that night, and Lily wanted to come along too."I think so, but you should ask your mum first." Lily phoned her mum, asking her if she could stay with me for a few more hours. When her mum said OK, I went to ask the boys.
"Can Lily come with us?" I asked them. "Of course she can," Niall replied. "I like her!" "But maybe this time we could go as normal people, we'll just sit in the audience. Do you think management would let you have two extra tickets?" I asked. Zayn phoned a few people and it was settled. Lily and I would have front row seats. "Yay!" Lily said happily. "Your brothers are really nice!" I looked at Harry and Liam who were fighting for the remaining milk in the fridge. I shrugged. "Yes, they are, most of the time."
