Trials (On Hold)

Chapter two

ALEXI'S P.O.V

Of course, my peaceful nap didn't really happen, for when I soon heard chuckles around me. I opened my eyes hurriedly and eyed them suspiciously. Then I quickly checked my face in the rear-view mirror. Yup, they had dared to draw on my face.

"Okay, who did this?" I question.
They all avoid my gaze.
"Louis. Was it you?" I ask him in a stern voice.
He nods, ever so slightly.

"Okay. You are sooooo gonna regret it. I WILL get back at you." I give him a smirk and he pouts. I roll my eyes, I won't fall for his puppy dog eyes, even though they are very cute.

I turn to Harry.
"And what a lovely brother you are, to let him do that" I roll my eyes at him.
"I know right!" He squeals in a girlish voice.
I chuckle at him before pinching his arm in a friendly way.
I am gonna say no more about this but I will prank them all back. Yes, ALL. Because NONE of them stopped Louis from drawing a moustache and a uni-brow on my face.

"So Paul told Simon and management about Alexi and us wanting to move and see our families and stuff, and they said it was okay." Liam announces.
Everyone gives a small cheer, although no one was overly excited as we had been looking forward to staying at the motel for a longer time.
"But there is also some bad news.." Liam continues with a frown. We all stare at him. What bad news!?

"Although we are on our vacation, management said we have to do one interview. I know it's a shame but it is only one and also it gives us an opportunity to tell the fans about Alexi."
The boys groan but then Harry nods. "Yes that's true. It's better to tell them in an interview than on, say...a social network or something."

Hmm. I'm getting nervous...how will the fans react? And when will I meet Anne, my mother?
I decide to ask my brother.
"Hey Harry, when do we go visit our families? And have you told Mum about me yet?"
"We'll probably visit families after the interview..so it's out of the way?" Harry said slowly, looking at Liam with a questioning look. Liam nodded at Harry in confirmation.

"And no, I haven't told Mum yet. I'll have to do that soon though!" Harry finishes.
I nod at him to let him know that I heard. Then I stare out the window again...

( A/N ) BTW I'm not going to have Gemma in the story, sorry! I know that Harry has an older sister but I didn't know that she was an OLDER sister and not a YOUNGER sister so sorry but it's just too late to add her in now! Soz!)

"Hey guys would it be okay if Janelle came to stay at the same hotel as us?" Niall suddenly asks, looking up from his phone.
"Yeah I guess, I mean, I don't see anything wrong with it." Liam says thoughtfully.
"As long as you don't stay in the same room" winks Zayn while nudging Niall in the shoulder.
Niall's face lights up like a red balloon and...wait...that did NOT make sense! A red balloon? Seriously Alexi? Balloons don't light up! Well. Sometimes they do, I mean if you shine a torch or something into it but YES I KNOW I AM RAMBLING AGAIN. Sigh...

"WE'RE HERE!!!!!!!!!!!" Shrieks a voice suddenly which literally makes me dent the roof of the car by jumping in shock. Not really...but...you know...
"Really LOUEH? Shush down a bit!" I scold him.
He pouts at me.
Ugh not the pouts! That's unfair!
I roll my eyes at him and mouth a 'love you' to him before noticing a hand waving in front of my face.
I look at Harry in a questioning way.
"Ah hem. Look...out the window or something...okay?" He motions toward the window.
Ahhhhh, someone's getting overprotective.
Hopefully he didn't see me mouthing 'love you' to Louis. That wouldn't be pretty...I think it would be rather..awkward..no, scratch that, VERY awkward...

"We have the interview today, in three hours boys!" Paul states as he stares at his phone.
We all look at him in surprise.
"So soon?" Niall questions.
"Well yes, you want it to be over and done with don't you?" Paul asks. "And Alexi can come too" he adds.
I nod nervously.

Soon everyone will know about me...
I feel a warm hand squeeze my knee.
I squirm. What? It's tickles! Don't blame me!
Harry smiles at me. "I know you're nervous but it's gonna be fine. Don't worry."
"Thanks Haz" I smile gratefully at him.
"Okay boys and girls, this is where we are going to be staying for the most of our vacation! Except when you visit your families of course. Go to your rooms and behave. Don't forget to get yourselves ready because we have that interview soon." Paul commands.
"Gosh Paul, we aren't children" Louis complains.
Paul rolls his eyes at Louis. "Oh really? Because sometimes it sure feels that way! Especially you, Louis."
Louis pouts. Again.
Ugh, why does he have to do that? It's so attractive. And cute. And utterly adorable. And "whatcha thinkin bout' Lex?" Louis asks.
"Oh just how adoooooooorable you look when you pout." I answer without thinking.
Louis fakes a gasp. "I'm not adorable! I'm manly" he argues, while flexing his arm muscles.
"Suure" I smirk at him. But at the same time I'm admiring his muscles..
"I am!" He pouts at me.
"There! You're doing it again!" I laugh, while whipping out my phone and snapping a photo.
"Hah! I'm saving that as my home screen!" I giggle.
Louis just continues to pout and sulk.

"Quit flirting you two and get out the car" Zayn smirks at the two of us.
I realise that the others have already gotten out the van.
Oh. Thanks for waiting. Sarcasm.
"Yeah yeah, we're coming. And we weren't flirting" I say, even though I know we pretty much were flirting!
"Surrrre" Zayn winks and then goes to join the others.
I blush and get out the car.

Before I know what's happening, a pair of arms grab me and another pair of arms grab my luggage.
"We're going to get Alexi ready!" Yells out Leigh-Ann before joining the other girls who were dragging me into the hotel.
Which, might I add, is even more fancy than the motel we were staying at before. Way more fancier. Wow....
Well, I guess it's time to get ready. In this mansion...castle...thing...
Soon...I'll be exposed to the world. And I'll meet my mum...I can't wait and I'm so excited and yet I'm so nervous I feel sick.

Sigh.

SOOOOOO. Sorry for the long wait for this chapter! Thanks for being patient. Also it's kinda a filler chapter sooooo yeah..but I still hope you enjoyed! :) <3
