Mistakes || H.S. ||

chapter 25

I wish I could get this week over with. It's only Thursday. And yesterday I found out I'm actually going on tour with One Direction. Harry Styles. Liam Payne. Louis Tomlinson. Zayn Malik. Niall Horan. This is actually happening. After all these years fangirling with Chloe, Carly, and Shea. I'm actually the one that gets to follow my actual dream.

My thoughts were interrupted by Carly walking into my bedroom.

"What's up skank?" Carly said joking.

"Nothin much. Just remembering how we were in high school." I told her laughing.

"Those were the days. Fangirls. We had no life. We always went to each other's houses, including Carly Paynter. Where'd she ever end up at?"

I have 2 friends with the same first name by the way.

"I know she hooked up with Cole and they moved to North Carolina. Maybe? I'll have to call her sometime." I said.

"Okay, but are you excited for actually going on tour with ONE DIRECTION!" She shouted.

I covered my ears, "No need to shout." I laughed.

She mumbled a sorry.

"But I'm excited. I love Harry with all my heart and we've gotten pretty close." I said smiling.

"Awh. You and Harry are adorable. I just wish I could find a relationship." Carly said fumbling with her fingers.

"You will, and I know the perfect guy actually. He's blonde, Irish, 1/5 of One Direction. Does that ring a bell?" I said.

Carly slapped my arm, "Shut up. He don't like me, nor does he even notice me."

"Don't you remember when he kissed your cheek, while you were 'fake' asleep! He was totally blushing, and I know you've been texting because your phone goes off nonstop." I assured.

"Fine you've caught me, we text, we flirt, it's just he could get any girl in the world. I don't think he likes me." She said.

"Nonsense, I'll call him right now!" I said.

"Go right ahead, he'll say no." Carly said.

I grabbed my phone and searched through my contacts.

All the boys added their numbers to my phone the day of the dinner when I first met them.

I clicked his name on my phone. And he picked up on the third ring.

Our conversation •

N- Umm Zoe?

Z- I need to ask you something Niall.

N- Sure, anything.

Z- Do you maybe, have feelings for Carly?

N- Is she with you?

Z- Nope, she went to Starbucks.

I glared at Carly and she motioned me to keep talking.

N- Well yes I do. A lot Zoe. I don't think she notices me, she told me her favorite member was Zayn. They all go for Zayn or Harry, not me. Why would she want me?

Z- You are completely stupid. She really likes you! Ask her out you pussy.

N- Zoe, okay. I'll text her soon as I get off the phone with you.

Z- Okay bye Nialllleerrr!

And I hung up.

I looked over and noticed Carly blushing.

"You okay?" I asked Carly.

"Everything's perfect. He likes me, but I can't like him. He's going on tour FOR 6 MONTHS." She said worried.

"You can come to as many concerts as you'd like around the area." I assured.

"Well that's good, we can also FaceTime."

"Uhh Carly, it's 3:30! We have practice at 5."

3 days later : DAY OF CHAMPIONSHIP GAME

Well today is the day. The day I've actually looked forward to getting over with. The team we are playing sucks badly. And I have no clue how they made it to the championship game. I grabbed my bag and put my headphones in running out the door. Harry texted me earlier saying he would positively make it to my game. He said the band may come.

I didn't want to drive because I wanted to get pumped up for my game.

Hall of Fame was currently playing, one of many of my songs on my playlist.

I finally made it to the college and rushed through the door ready to play.

I was shaking with butterflies in my stomach, but I'm pumped because after this day, I can go on tour with my amazing boyfriend. Win or lose, I obviously don't care.

___________________________

The crowd kept getting bigger and bigger, fans were lining up. This many people coming to a basketball game? No way.. Harry maybe.

I grabbed my phone out of my bag and surely enough, Harry tweeted, "Everybody come support my girlfriend at the college in her championship basketball game."

I clicked retweet and I saw Harry stand up and try to get my attention, he waved pointing at his phone.

There was 5 minutes left in warm ups and I was stretching.

The game was about to start and we have a full house tonight, not once single seat open.

The buzzard went off and it's game time.

"Zoe you jump, Hannah gaurd, Carly shooting gaurd, Reese point gaurd, and Jill small post. LETS GO WIN THIS GAME." My coach yelled.

It's gametime.
