Chance vs. Payne

Chapter Two

Maura's POV

"Can you believe it, Greyson? I'm going to a One Direction concert!  A One Direction concert!  I think I'm fan-girling right now.  I can't believe I'm going to meet them."

Breath in through the nose, breath ot through the mouth.  Calm down, Maura! I think to myself, Calm down!

Liam's POV

The boys and I were all at Harry's mum's house, just chilling out, in front of the T.V., but none of us were really watching it.

Suddenly, Gemma runs into the room, "Guess what?" She asks breathless.

Harry looks up from his phone and says, ''Uh? You finally found a boy?''

Gemma puts her hands on her hips, "Really Harry? Why would you care anyway?'' She rolls her eyes.

"Well then! I was just asking you a question.  I care about my baby sister," Harry smirks.

"I'm not a baby.  But anyway, you know my friend from America, Maura Robertson?" Giving us no time to answer, she contunies, "Well, you know those two tickets you gave me, Harry? Well, she's coming with me.  I brought a picture of her, so all of you can see what she looks like."

"She's hot!" Harry informs us all.

"You keep your hands off of her!'' Gemma yells.

We all laugh.  Gemma hands the picture around.

"She has the same name as my mum! I think I like her,'' Niall says.

The picture is handed to Zayn who is busy texting Perrie, "She's pretty," he says distractly and keeps texting.

He gives it to Louis, "Umm. . .she's pretty, but Eleanor is way more gorgous."

He passes it to me. One look at the picture, and I knew I would like her. She had blonde hair that went past her shoulders, sparkling blue eyes, and a smile that could melt an ice cube.  I know the boys are probably wondering why I'm taking so long to look at the picture of a girl I never met before, so I hand it back to Gemma, wishing I could look at it longer.  Thankfully, the boys don't say anything.  I know that this the girl. The one for me.

 ***************

Half an hour later, we were on the way to work on our new album, Take Me Home.  Harry was driving, I was in the passenger seat.  Niall, Zayn and Louis were behind me.  Listening to Louis and Niall being so happy about them being able to start some of the new songs, I found myself lost in my thoughts - thinking about Maura.

Without realizing it, I started singing, "Get out, get out, get outta my head, and fall into my arms instead."

I feel a hand patting me on the shoulder, so I look back.  "You okay, mate?" Zayn asks.

"Yeah, why?" I ask very confused.

"Well, you started singing 'One Thing'," He explained.

"Oh, well, I guess I just really like that song," hoping they don't realize who I was singing about.

Very randomly, Louis yells on the top of his lungs, "I LOVE YOU, HAZZA BEAR!!"

"Uh, i love you too, Boo Bear." He yells back. Under his breath, he mutters, "I think"

I start to laugh, and Zayn thought I was going crazy.

"Uh, are you sure you're okay, Liam? Because I'm not." Zayn gives me a self-confidence boost and I roll my eyes.
