Girls Night In

"Noooooooooo!" Louis said loudly. "I don't want to go!" "I don't want to go either, but we need to meet someone there and talk about next year's tour dates." "Then what about me?" I asked. "You should just stay here, we'll find someone to stay with you. "Liam said. "Oh, OK," I said. "You need to go now?" "The flight is due in four hours." He said. We all looked at the clock hanging above the kitchen table. "So we should leave here soon." "I need to start packing first," Zayn said, and I followed him up to his room. "What's America like?" I asked as he started shoving clothes into a suitcase. "You've never been there?" He asked, looking surprised.

"I've never been to another country in my life," I said. "It's very...fast." He said, "It feels like all the people there are living in fast-forward." "Why does that sound so familiar ?" I asked, racking my brain. "It's from one of our songs!" He said, then started singing. I lay down on his bed and closed my eyes listening to him sing Up All Night. "You can sing higher than me, Zayn," I commented. "Yay!" He squealed like a girl. "I can sing high!

He sang more songs while I lay there watching the clouds from his window. "Hey, do you want Ashlyn to come to stay with you tonight?" He asked suddenly. "She still wants to get to know you more." "Sure!" I said. Zayn phoned Ashlyn and it was settled. She would arrive at 5 o'clock after the boys left. Just then, Niall ran into our room, a toothbrush on one hand and his phone on another.

"Cadence said she can come to stay with you tonight!" He said excitedly. "Oh." I looked at Zayn. "Really?" "Really! She'll be here at five! She said she can't wait to see you! I already told her that we adopted you, is that OK?" "It's OK, Niall." Zayn said, "But I need to talk to Passion, so could you, you know?" "Oh, right," Niall said and left the room. "They can both come, can't they?" I asked. Zayn shrugged.

"Only if Cadence doesn't blab or anything." "I don't think she will. She's the shy type." Zayn was searching for some clean socks when he came across a cat fuzzy slipper. He threw it at me. "Help me give this to Harry, won't you?" He asked. I walked across the hall into Harry's room. "Your slipper, boyfriend," I said, throwing it at him so it hit him in the head. "Oh hello pussycat, I found you!" His mouth split into a smile when he saw it. "By the way, Passion, Beth offered to stay with you tonight. To make up for being mean to me, you know. She's already on her way, she'll be here at five."

"Oh, she's on her way already?" "Yup." "But Cadence is coming as well," I said. "Then they can both stay, I guess. No big deal." I walked to Liam's room to tell him about the plan. But on the way, I met Louis who was on a quest for clean underwear. "Passion!" He called out to me. "Did you do the laundry yesterday?" Now that I had settled into their family, I also had my fair share of chores to do. But it's not exactly a 'fair share', because I mostly end up helping the boys do their share. "Of course I did, unlike you," I replied.

"Good, now I can have clean underwear. Oh, and Peyton just called." He added in a softer tone, making sure no one else heard. "She has nothing to do this evening, so she could pop along tonight and keep you company until we come back." "That's really nice of her, then. " I said, thinking of how many people would be staying with me tonight. Quite a few. "She won't be alone though. Cadence and Beth are coming too." And also Ashlyn, I added inside my head.

"Oh are they?" Louis said, "But Peyton is already on her way!" "Don't worry, I'll just tell the others that Peyton is...your friend." "OK then. I'll kill you if you let anyone find out!" He pretended to strangle me and I wriggled out of his grip then went to Liam's room, thinking of how to explain the situation. "Liam?" I asked, hovering by his doorway. "Hi, Passion! I was just meaning to find you! Angie just called me, she has a day off today so she could spend it here, and help me take care of you."

"What?" I asked, thinking in my head exactly who was coming to stay with me tonight. Angie, Peyton, Ashlyn, Bethany and Cadence. All five of their girlfriends. Two secret ones, one who isn't exactly Niall's girlfriend but acts like she is, and two actual girlfriends. Oh, wait. Harry's girlfriend is me. From the world's point of view, anyway. This is getting too complicated. I sighed and didn't bother explaining it to Liam. I might accidentally let slip about Ashlyn or Peyton.
