No Escape From 1D

The Girl

Niall's POV:
   Tonight is the night we bring our girl home.
Her name is Catherine McKeegan, a beautiful young lady. We adopted her from her brother, since he can't afford her anymore. Honestly it looks like she's better off in our care, then his. He doesn't seem like a good brother to have. He looked drunk at the time, and Ed's cousin seemed to really hate her for some reason. Why would anyone hate such a beautiful girl, like her. Then again there's a lot of things wrong with Cooper, that Ed explained to us.      
Considering she's a fan of ours, we already know she will love living with us. I just really hope she likes me. I been thinking about her since the first time I saw her picture, and I can't stop thinking about her. 
We will give her all the love, attention, care, and protection anyone could ever want. After we signed the adoption papers yesterday, I went shopping to get a few things, I think she would like. Today is her birthday, so I even wrapped up a few presents for her.  
Only thing I'm worried about, is getting her to go with us after the concert. She's a teenager, she may not believe us that we adopted her, and try to run away from us. We discussed as a group, that if she doesn't willingly leave with us, then we will have to make her unconscious for awhile, to get her in the van. I really hope she will be happy to be adopted by us, so we don't have to chloroform her. Hopefully things will go well tonight.    

    Right now the lads and I are getting some fresh air, before we have to go to our show. Instead of staying in a hotel, like we normally do, we agreed on staying in a cabin up in the mountains, for a fun camping experience. Paul and the security team, are staying at a hotel room, to be closer to the stadium, and their not very fond of the outdoors. Worked out perfectly. Will give us more time alone with Catherine, before we have to go to South Carolina.     

Louis, Harry, Liam, and I are currently playing soccer at the park, that's outside our cabin.
Knowing all of our fans have a crush, and some are in love with us. Louis, and Harry keep joking around in making bets of who Catherine has a crush on, & going to fall in love with first.
Harry's last relationship didn't work out. Him being the youngest of the group. So he believes when she turns 18, she could have a relationship with him if she wants to.
Louis has been in an on and off relationship with Eleanor.  He just finds it flattering when fans believe they're in love with him. He likes those type of fans, better then those who believe he's in a secret relationship with Harry. We all make fun of those Larries.
Liam is the one who will mainly be Catherine's guardian. He's been sober for a month now, and believes adopting a kid will help take his mind off drinking for good. He wants to be a Father, and figures adopting a teenager will be a good start.
Zayn is sadly not part of our band anymore, but he's still apart of our group. He landed a solo record deal. Since he's been back home in London to pack up his stuff, he's helping us, by getting Catherine's room ready for her. Zayn will be in and out as he's getting ready to move in with Perrie. He will just be another big brother figure to Catherine.     

Harry and Louis are making some kind of dumb bet. Liam andI I just stand back to watch them. Harry went first, so far made 7 goals. The eighth kick, made the ball hit the top of the goal, and it flew towards a picnic table.
"Heads up!" Louis warns the girl, sitting on the table.
Thankfully it bounced behind her, off the table, and rolls in front of her, under the bench.   
Louis yells over to the girl."Hey! Can you please give us our football?"  
We watch her hop down the table, she's kind of short, maybe 5"1. She looks pretty though. Beautiful curvy body, and long wavy chestnut brown hair, that's tied up in a ponytail. She has on dark blue jeans, a pink coral shirt, and turquoise sneakers. As I'm trying to study her face, I couldn't believe my eyes. It's her, it's Catherine.  
I nudge Liam."That's her, that's the girl." I whisper to him.
Liam looks at her to study her.
We watch her kick the ball to us. She kicked it very hard, making it fly over to Liam, and he jumps up to catch it.
"A girl who can kick. Now that's hot." Harry comments.  
We all chuckle at his comment, and agreed.  
Louis waves at her."Thanks!" 
She waves back, and smiles at us."You're welcome!"  
Seeing her smile, that definitely let me know that was her.
She sits back down on top of the table.   
Liam shrugs his shoulders."I don't know bro. It could just be a girl that looks like her." He kicks the ball to Louis.
"I'm going to go find out."I starts to walk my way towards her, but Liam stops me.   
"No. Not now. If that is her, what are you going to say?" He does a terrible Irish accent, that sounds more like Scottish." Hi, I'm Niall Horan, from One Direction, an we adopted you?"  
I roll my eyes." One your accent is terrible. Two I'm Irish, not Scottish. And three, I wasn't going to say anything. I just want to get a better look."   
"Zager said his sister is single right?" Liam asks. 
I look at him confused." Yeah. So?"  
Liam points over to her direction."Then that's not Catherine." 
I look over, and see her kissing some guy. Weirdly enough though, it looks like, this look a like shares the same birthday as Catherine. The boy gave her a gift bag, with a balloon tied to it.   
"What if Zager was wrong? She could have a boyfriend, and he not know about it. It looks like it's her birthday, and today is Catherine's birthday."  
I look back over to her, and see her putting a big Stitch plush back in her gift bag. She opens some kind of note book, and starts writing in it.  
"Could be a coincidence? That girl could share the same birthday as her...  
"Yeah, if she has a twin she doesn't know about. Liam, I know that smile anywhere, it's her. That's Catherine." 
We hear the guy sitting next to her start singing " I'll Be", by Edwin McCain.  
"I'll go see for myself then. I'm just going to walk by to see if I hear what her name is. I need to go to the restroom anyways. Be right back." Liam walks off, and I see him walk behind Catherine, to get to the restroom.  

I walk to sit down on the side of the field to watch her, but pretend I'm starting out into the lake.
The guy she is with is actually a really good singer, and guitar player. I see he's wearing a light grey hoodie, and the name " Malone" on the side of his sleeve in maroon red letters. On the back of his hoodie reads," Class of 2016". Catherine is a sophmore in high school. If that girl is her, then that means she's dating a senior.  
My thoughts get distracted by Louis, who is cheering."Tommo for the win! In your face Styles!"   
Harry is pouting like a 5 year old." No fair! You're a pro at football. Why don't we settle this bet with something we're both good at." 
Louis shakes his head."No way. I won this fair and square. You just want to change the bet, so you can win. I won this time Styles, get over it."   

I can't help but to keep starring at her. When he's done singing,they kiss again. I keep getting a jealous feeling, but there's nothing I can do about that right now. I can hear her giggle about something. Her laugh is really cute. The way they both look at each other, I can tell they're in love. If that is Catherine, I feel a bit terrible for taking her away from love. The again, maybe I can give her that.   
A hand waving in my face, brings me back to reality. I look up, and see Harry.
"You okay?" He asks me. 
I nod my head."Yeah, I'm fine. Sorry, just thinking."   
Good thing I'm wearing sunglasses, or they would know who I'm starring at. 
"Wanna kick?"Harry offers me the football.
"Maybe later. Taking a rest right now."
Harry nods."Alright."
Harry, and Louis are just kicking the football back and forth.

I hear a high pitch squeal, and look over to where Catherine is. I hear her yell."Ron! Stop! This isn't funny!" She's being held upside down, and he's making her do a hand stand. She's struggling to keep her shirt from flying up. I was fixing to go over to help her, but I see the Malone dude gently lays her on her stomach.  They're just wrestling, I guess. It's funny watching them.
Now Malone is playing his guitar again, this time he's singing to the song " Two is Better then One", by Boys Like Girls.

Liam sits down next to me."You're right. That's her." He points.
We both look towards where Catherine is.
I smile."I wish I could talk to her now, but not a good idea with Romeo over there." 
"Not a good idea at all. We need to stick with the plan..."His phone rings."Be right back."
Liam gets up to walk off to the side, and take his phone call.

Liam runs up to get Harry's, and Louis' attention."Guys, Paul needs us for an interview before sound check. Means we need to start getting ready to go now."  
He motions me to get up.
Wanting to stay here longer, we sigh in disappointment. "Okay."  

Liam, and I both look towards where Catherine is.
Now she is singing, and she has the most beautiful voice I ever heard.
Liam smiles. "Come on. We need to go. We will see her again tonight."
I nod my head."Okay."  
Liam walks in front of me towards the cabin. Before walk off. I get my phone out, and take a picture of her. I turn back around, put my phone back in my pocket, and run to catch up to Liam. I'm wanting time to go by fast, so I can see Catherine again. I can't wait for to be with her.
