Chapter 3: 1st Drama Meeting

Jane's POV,

 When I woke up, I was on a bed at the nurse office. I groaned and tried to get up. Then I heard someone said 'Hey you're awake!'

'Wait a minute, I don't recognize that voice. Who could it be?' I thought. I got up, looked around and saw the One Direction members in the room.

Me: What's going on? Why are you all here? *confused look*

Liam: You don't remember? You got hit by a basketball in the gym!

Me: Huh? Oh, you mean it wasn't a dream?

Zayn: Unfortunately, no. 

Me: Oh. You were the one who threw it right? *looking at Niall*

Niall: Erm..yeah. Sorry about that, I didn't mean to, I should have been more careful.

Me: It's ok. I'm alright, a little sore but I'll manage. I'm glad my glasses is still in good shape. *laughs nervously*

Harry: I'm sorry..I mean we're sorry if we had bothered you doing your work, You seemed pretty intense with that notebook of yours. Homework? *smiles sheepishly*

Me: I wish! Its actually a plan I was doing for how to organize a play my school is doing a play for the Fall Festival, and I'm the stage manager.

Niall: Sounds interesting, what's the play?

Me: Romeo & Juliet. *sighs*

Harry: You dont sound very happy about it, is something wrong?

Before I could answer, Mrs. Dasani, the school's nurse came in waving a thermometer before slipping it into my mouth.

 Mrs. Dasani: My, don't we have a popular patient! So many young men came to see you!

I tried to answer but only managed to make gurgling sounds.

Mrs. Dasani: *looks at me disapprovingly* Let's see what we have here, *takes out thermometer out my mouth and looks at it*

Mrs. Dasani: Ah, good! You don't have a fever my dear, but you must have lots of rest. You're free to go now. Try not to do any heavy work or outdoor activities for awhile. You had quite a hit to your head.

Me: *unconsciously touch my head and winced*

Mrs. Dasani: Well, I trust that you can see yourself out.

Me: Yes Mrs.Dasani, thank you.

Mrs. Dasani: You should thank these young men here, they brought you in. Such gentlemen! Reminds me when Mr.Dasani was courting me. *sigh* Well, I better tend to Ms.Willow now. Poor thing, she caught the school bug! Bye now! *hurries off to another room*

Me: *looks over to the guys* Thanks for bringing me in guys. *smiles*

Niall: No problem! Again, Im sorry for hitting you with the basketball.

Me: Its o...

*clock in the room chimes loudly*

I looked over, it read '4pm'

Me: Oh no!!

One Direction members: Why? What's wrong? *all at once*

Me: Its 4pm! 'I can't believed I was knocked out for so long!' I thought to myself.

Liam: Er, yeah. We can see that.

Harry: Why? What happens at 4pm? Do you have a date or something?

Me: You could say that. The meeting regarding the play is at 4pm today! Its the first meeting, and Im late! *grabs things and stuffs into my bag and hurried towards the door*

*Harry grabs my arm*          

Harry: Hey! Slow down. Take it easy. You heard what the nurse said.

Me: Please let me go.

Harry: *lets me go*

Me: I'll be okay. Don't worry you guys, I'm alright now. I can make my way to the meeting room just fine. Im sure you guys have better things to do. *starts to walk to the door*

 I could hear whispering when I reached the door but thought nothing of it and continued out when I heard Harry calling out my name.

Harry: Jane! Could we please come and watch?

Me: (How does he know my name?! Oh wait, the nurse probably told them my name when they sent me there)There's nothing to watch. It's just a meeting. You will be wasting your time! *I felt bad that I was rude to them.After all, they had stayed with me until I was awake at the nurse office*

Harry: I won't! You'll be there! *smiles*

Me: *confused look* So?

Harry: *smile disappears* Please? We are looking for talent after all. We promise we'll be good and quiet.

Me: *I could see this argument could go on and on so I said 'Ok. You can come. But please maintain your distance? Mrs. Lesauvage doesn't do too well with outsiders.

Niall: We'll be good! Show us the way. *grins*

Me: *sigh* Okay. Follow me.

 I walked down the hall with them behind me feeling abit relieved that school was over so there won't be a female stampede. I didn't want to end back at the nurse office again. Soon we arrived at the main hall, I peeked in and saw that Mrs. Lesauvage was already giving her speech to others. I saw Taegan sitting on the seventh row away from Mrs. Lesauvage, slowly drifting off to sleep.

*sigh*

Harry: Whats wrong? *looks at me*

Me: Nothing. Come on.

I walked over slowly hoping to be able to call out Mrs. Lesauvage before she saw me. No such luck.

 Mrs. Lesauvage: Ah! Ms Gillmore! How nice of you to join us!

I cringed at her sarcastic tone.

Me: Mrs. Lesauvage, (I began)

Harry: Please don't be mad at her! It's our fault!

Me: *looks at them blankly & annoyed*

Mrs.Lesauvage: What iz the meaning of thiz? Why are you here? And what iz it that you did??

Niall: *raises hand nervously* I sort of accidentally threw a basketball that hit her and landed her in the nurse office. She just recovered ma'am!

Mrs. Lesauvage: Iz this true Ms Gillmore?

Me: *I could only nod*

Mrs. Lesauvage: Well then! I vill check vith Mrs.Dasani after thiz to confirm thiz story! For now, take your zeats please! No more nonsense!

 I quickly went over to Taegan and sat next to him; followed by the One Direction members.

Taegan: *whispering to me* Mind explaining what happened and them? *pointing towards the One Direction members.

Me: *sigh* Its a long story. I'll explain everything later ok?

Taegan: *annoyed look* You better.

Then we listened as Mrs. Lesauvage went on about the play and our duties.
