A Change In Direction (a One Direction fan fiction)

Chapter 1

Chapter One:

~Harry's POV~ 

As we boarded the plane, it was silent. No one talked. We all just couldn't believe that this was actually happening. The goodbyes were the worst part. We cried our eyes out and Louis' were so puffy but he still looked cute. I think this situation may be the worst for him since he has his whole family and girlfriend over here in the UK. Him and Eleanor are perfect together and I don't want this move to end their relationship. I just really hope the whole long distance thing will work out because they are meant to be. I am the best match maker! I hope that Zayn and Perrie will last this busy year for the two of them and through both their careers and Zayn's schooling, they will stay together.

Our families watched us silently as we walked up the stairs to fly to the other side of the world so we could study for a whole year. No more One Direction, just a normal life. 

We sat down in our seats. Louis on my left and Niall on my right. Liam and Zayn were sitting behind us. Although we are going to live a normal life for a year, it will still be far from normal. We are still gonna need all the security we can get because we won't be forgotten. At least I hope so...

As the plane began to take off, I noticed that everyone had returned back to their normal selves. Niall was eating a bag of crisps while Zayn was taking selfies on Liam's phone. I couldn't help but notice that there was something majorly up with Lou. He was no longer his chirpy self but actually sat there in silence. I could see his eyes slightly watering while he blinked constantly to hold back the tears. I thought I shouldn't say anything because I could tell that it would take a long time for him to adjust with this new lifestyle over in the States. He came from a small town and lived with his family his whole life. This was a major change for him but I am going to do everything I can to help him settle down at College and enjoy the year ahead.

~Louis' POV~ 

I sat in my seat the whole ride; I didn't even get up to go to the bathroom. I honestly don't think I will be able to change my lifestyle so easily, especially with such short notice. I heard Liam and Zayn whispering behind me and they didn't seem too worried about this whole thing. Was I the only one? My thoughts were jumbled up in my mind and I heard Liam ask me something. "Hey are you alright man, you have been quiet the whole past hour. What's up?" I replied with a simple "I'm fine" as I thought that would be the best response. There is no way I am going to tell the boys that I am nervous about this new life because I don't want them to think I am a pussy. It's not that I don't want to go and meet new people and experience new things, I just think that this may put Eleanor and my relationship under stress. Although we've been together almost three years and I love her to pieces, I can't help but worry that this move may be the cause of the end of our relationship. I don't know what life would be like without her. I would hate to lose her.

~Harry's POV~ 

I woke up to the sound of Liam's soft voice, "Harry wake up, we're here in New York". Had I really slept through the entire 7 hours? As I stood up, my legs collapsed and I fell onto the ground. I guess my legs hadn't quite woken up with the rest of my body. I turned around only to see Niall in stitches on the floor. I literally thought he was going to wet himself! The rest of the lads including Louis were laughing too. I have to admit that it was pretty funny. Yep, this move to the USA will not change any of us. We'll all still be the crazy best mates that come from Great Britain and in Niall's case... Ireland.

As we walked through the tunnel leading towards the terminal where we could get out of this place, we could already hear the distant screams of teenage girls. Security were getting closer and tighter around all of us and we approached the deafening crowd.

"I love you Zayn!" 

"I wanna feel the payne tonight!" 

"Marry me Boobear!" 

"I love Larry Stylinson" 

"Can I touch your dimples Harry?" 

"Can I have some Irish in me?!" 

HAHAHA, oh the things some fans think of are actually hilarious! Some of them are very dirty minded! Not that I'm complaining of course! I do quite enjoy hearing the knew lines that the Directioners make up.

We stopped to sign a few autographs and Niall even stopped for a couple of photos but we had to head off. I knew the fans were disappointed but considering I couldn't hear out of my left ear, I think it was for the best. Not gonna lie, we've all become a tad frightened of the fans... especially Niall. I mean the poor lad, he's claustrophobic.

As the limo pulled up, we jumped in and it sped off. We can't afford for the fans to discover where we will be living for the next year, for obvious reasons of course... 

After about 30 minutes we arrived at our new crib. From the exterior of the house, I could tell I was gonna enjoy living here!
