The Start of Something New

Chapter 20 - So empty

Linda's P.O.V.

The flight was very boring. Okay, it was just 2 hours, but I hadn't someone to talk to. Phie fell asleep after 20 minutes. When we landed our mom, our sister and our nephews were already waiting for us. Also, some fans, like 200, were waiting. Some Directioners and our fans, which called themselves Salators. They kept some funny placards up. On one stood "Give us 1Ds mobile numbers." I just looked at Phie. She smiled at me cheeky. But we only noticed our family. We were so happy to see them after so long time. We hugged them all tight. A police man told us to go with him but only our family went with him because Phie and me wanted to give some autographs and photos. They all gave us slips of paper on which their phone numbers, Facebook or Twitter names were. Some girls started crying. Wow. That was a weird feeling. I meant, it was just Phie and me, not some very popular persons. After about 30 minutes we had to go. Some police men guided us out of the airport. Another police man brought us our suitcases. At least, we were very happy to just sit with our family in the car. We drove about 1 hour. We talked a lot and told them about our song, the Twitcam with the boys and all the stuff and fun we had with the boys. It was too much to tell them. When we were home I just went in my room. I laid down in my bed in thought about all the things which happened the last months. Wow. I was dating Zayn Malik. We were famous and everybody knew us. We were on TV worldwide and gave signings at the airport. I never imagined how exhausting but cool our life could be. So much changed. But I loved it. And I thought, Phie did so, too. Suddenly, Phie came in my room. "It's amazing, isn't it?", "More than amazing! Amazayn!", I laughed. "Come, girl. We go downstairs to the others. They were waiting for us for weeks." We went downstairs and joined the others. Phie and me had to switch over to German. It was a bit weird, after speaking English everyday. But it also was good. "So Li. Now, you're finally together with your Prince Charming. I don't want to clarify you. You know?" Oh, my mom was so embarrassing. "Mom. I know. He's 19. He will care about me. Just believe in my.", "Yes. Little sister.", "Phie!" I missed that times with my family. It was too great. We just wanted to spend a bit time with our family and talked for about 2 hours. We talked about the boys, our career, our fans and our house. Mom and the others never visited us and so, we made a little video of our home. "And that's my room. It's the most beautiful one!", Sophie smirked. I grinned at her and shook my head. "And this is my room. Even more beautiful as Phie's room!", I winked at her. That was going to be a great time...

Sophie's P.O.V.

Already 4 days passed in Germany, but it wasn't boring, yet. Everything was kinda new, because many things changed. Our nephews grew a lot, our rooms changed completely and our mom bought a dog. Its name was Boo. A bit weird. It kinda remembered me of Boobear, Louis. Whatever.  Today, Li and me were going to do an interview for the German TV channel RTL. It was the first time, when Li and me did an interview in German. That was good, so we could understand all the questions. The interviewer in England could only ask some easy questions. It would be very embarrassing for us, if we didn't understand them. So it was easy. We knew the woman from TV. It was about 11am when it rang at the door. Li and me ran downstairs and opened the door. "Morning! Come in, please!", we saluted the reporter and the whole camera team. I was a bit excited. We went in the living room. Our mom was in the kitchen and  watched us. The woman explained us, what she was going to ask. Then she started asking questions. "Welcome back to Germany! Your career start is amazing! You just traveled to London to make vacation and then you met the boys from One Direction. How does it feel to be that famous after a few months?", "To make it short. It's awesome. After such short time. I mean, we were big Directioners and we looked forward to our vacation. We hoped that we would meet some famous people. But I think, we both had never expected that it would be so different. It's really great." I really couldn't describe my feelings, because I hadn't realise all, yet. "We just wanted to have fun in London. And then the boys took the seats next to us and looked at us. That was an incredible feeling.", "You're all best friends now. Is there a problem? Maybe the age? Hobby's?", "I really hate football. And the others love it. So it's a bit daft for me to find someone to not be alone when they watch football or join a match. Sure, I know some people there but not that much." I really understood her. If there was something in the world, what Li hated, football. There was nothing what she could dislike more. "And the age? You're dating the 19-year-old Zayn Malik?", "Yes. Why not? I mean, I'm just dating him because he's famous and he's super hot.", she laughed and went on. "Haha. No. There isn't a problem. I believe, that people think I just love him because he's Zayn. I mean, before, I was just fangirling over them. I really loved One Direction and my favourite was Zayn. But now, I know him better. It's different than before." I was so happy for them. Li and Zayn. The couple of the year.  "And you Phie? I heard you have a celebrity crush?" I felt it, I blushed a bit. But I just smiled at her. "Maybe.", I couldn't hit a laughter. "But. Who hasn't?", "But I mean especially a celebrity crush on one of the One Direction boys? Because some fans send us that photo of you and Mr. Horan?", she smiled cheeky. She held a photo. It was Niall and me. At the airport in London. Nearly kissing. Still holding hands. But Li interrupted that moment. "In the last interviews you said, that there isn't more than a friendship. And now? Is there more than a friendship?" I decided not to answer. But I nodded at the woman. Still smiling. Li looked at me a bit confused, also smiling. Oh my gosh. Now, I told the whole world, that I have feelings for Niall Horan. "We all knew it!", she said, now smiling all over her face. I felt it. It was the right decision to tell them. "So are you finally a couple?", "Erm.. no.", "Really? Don't you lie at me?" I shook my head, a bit grinning. "But I'll believe in you. How does it feel to be famous and to chill out with some famous boys?", "At first, we couldn't believe it. It was just too unbelievable to chill out with our 5 idols. But now, it's a kind of normal for us. We just try to stay as normal as before. But it's hard, because we haven't any freetime now. If you go out, some fans are already waiting for you. Everytime. This is really crazy.", "And what do you do with the boys if you have freetime?", "The most time, we watch films together or play football in our yard. Since Phie and me live with Niall in a house, Harry, Lou, Liam and Zayn are very often at our house. We often cook together or make some picnics. So, the most time, it's really fun with them.", "Are you kinda competitors?", "No. Never. I mean Li and I.. It's just the beginning of our career. We only have one official single, which is called Reason To Smile. And they are so much more successful than us.", "So. Your lives seem to be perfect, yes?", "Well. Let's not say perfect.. But.. Yes.. It's truly perfect!", Li giggled. "So, I don't wanna waste your time with your family. Thanks for the answers and good luck for the future!", "We have to thank! Hope we see us soon!" After the interview we talked a bit with the woman. Than she left our house. It was a great interview, because it was the first time, that I understood every single word. "When do you think, the interview will be published?", I asked Li. I just wanted to know, when I had to tell Niall. But, I thought, some Directioners or Salators would know, before we did. "I don't know. Maybe tonight? Maybe tomorrow.. Why?", "Ah. Just curious.", "Curious? Don't you think, it has something to do with.. Niall, Mrs. Horan?", she said, cheeky smiling. I blushed and grinned. "I guess, you're right. Yes, it has to do with him. But. Who cares? C'mon, let's go and eat dinner!", I suggested, when I already calmed down. She quickly nodded, while her stomach rumbled. We both bursted out into laughter and went to the kitchen. Gosh. I loved this girl.
