Claire's POV

"Claire...Claire? Wake up! Claire, you have to wake up now. The plane just landed and Dad's getting impatient. Claire look there's Louis Tomlinson!"

I woke from my deep sleep when I heard Lily utter the magical words "Louis Tomlinson." I sat up quickly and looked around the plane. I saw no incredibly hot British guy with sparkling blue eyes so Lily was messing with me. I whacked her on the back of her head.

"Lily! Do not say look there's Louis, if he's not there. That's just plain mean. I got all excited for nothing." I pouted and sank back into my seat. Lily rubbed the back of her head and glared at me.

"I'm sorry if you sleep sounder than a log, but the plane landed, Sleeping Beauty. And we kinda have to leave now." I rolled my eyes, thirteeen year old sisters could have such attitude. It was a downer after such a good nap. I collected my carry on bag and followed Lily off of the plane. My mom was waiting near the exit with a pissed look on her face. I sighed and started walking towards her. What a great way to start our vacation.

"Claire! Lily! Where were you?" my mom asked.

"I'm sorry Mom. But it took forever to wake Claire up."

Great Lily. Thanks so much for putting the blame on me. What a lovely sister.

My mom sighed and picked up her bag. "Well, your father went to go get us our rental car since you girls were taking so long. I'm going to join him so you need to go get our bags."

Of course. What a lovely day. I started walking towards the baggage claim area quickly, dodging people left and right. An advantage to being tall is that you can just push people out of your way. I found the baggage claim for our flight and stood next to it, waiting. Lily had muttered something about using the bathroom so it was just me waiting for four bags. Did I mention that I have balance issues and can be slightly clumsy at times?

I pulled out my phone and texted Sara.

To Sara: Heyy ^-^ just landed in florida. Waiting at baggage claim by myself XP

From Sara: I'm sorry mon amie. Where's Lily?

I was about to type a reply when someone tapped me on my shoulder. I looked up into sparkling blue eyes.

"Excuse me love. Would you happen to know where the baggage claim is for the flights from London?" he said in an angelic British accent.

I tried to control my breathing but it wasn't working. I accepted the fact that I was going to die in front of this beautiful boy. I smiled at him and quickly looked down at my clothes. Jeans and a plain white tee shirt. And I'm sure that my hair looked lovely after my power nap on the plane.

"Umm, I think they're near the sign that says International Flights," I smiled again and grinned when he flashed that brillant smile.

"Thank you love. I guess I was too stupid to see that. I'm Louis and you are?" He looked at me questioningly and I concentrated on breathing in and out. C'mon Claire, he's just an international popstar, no reason to hyperventilate.

"I'm Claire. And you're not stupid," I blurted out. I mentally facepalmed myself. He chuckled and looked around. I took the oppurtunity to check him out. He was wearing a gray shirt, beanie and red pajama pants , but he still looked very hot. He looked back at me and I tried to not make it obvious that I was just checking him out.

'Well Claire it was lovely meeting you but Liam over there is very impatient." I looked over to see Liam Payne waving frantically next to Harry Styles, who was on his phone. Louis waved and smiled cheekily. Liam mouthed "We have to go." Louis nodded and turned back to me.

"Claire, do you have a Twitter?" I nodded, praying that I wouldn't say anything stupid. "Well, we can take a picture together and I'll tweet it. Maybe that way we can stay in touch." I nodded again. Louis Tomlinson wants to stay in touch with me? I definitely was dreaming.

He pulled out his phone and then he wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to him. "Smile!" he demanded. We smiled for the camera and before I could see how it turned out, Louis got onto Twitter.

@louistomlinson: met a lovely girl today. She helped me out when I was lost! Thx @claireforever http://twitpic23

He kissed my cheek goodbye then left. I sank down to the floor, trying to process what the heck just happened. I remembered that I never texted Sara back and she HAD to know about this life changing event

To Sara: AFDGVJAIOGA. Go on Twitter NOW. Check out Louis's latest tweet. DO IT NOW.

From Sara: Ok.. wait a sec... Claire is that you with him?

To Sara: YES!!! I just met him at the airport!!! I'm fangirling right now!!

From Sara: You just met Louis Tomlinson? That means One Direction is in Florida. I'll be there in two.

To Sara: LOL I wish u could b here. TTYL

From Sara: Ttyl mon amie <3 i'm so jealous!!

I put my phone away and saw that Lily was finally heading back from the bathroom. I prepared to give her the news. She was a Directioner too and she was probably going to ask me 25 billion questions. But that's ok. I'd put up with it. Because, let's face the facts, who wouldn't want to talk about just meeting Louis Tomlinson?
