The girls and I were all talking amongst ourselves and playing Uno when the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it!" I shouted in my friend's ears while putting my cards in my back pocket so that no one could see them. I trust my friends with all my heart, yes, but you never know. (It's mostly because I rule this game and win almost every single time!)

"Well, it is your house, Mckenna, so we were kind of guessing you would get it," one of my good friends, Alexandra, said. I just shot her a friendly and small glare and just walked to the door. I opened the door where I was met by a guy with a varsity jacket and a jet black quiff with a blonde streak in the middle. I know that hair anywhere.

"Zayn!" I shouted while jumping into my older brother's open arms. Yeah, you heard me, Zayn Malik, the mysterious and shy guy from One Direction, is my freakin' older brother. Be jelly of me.

"Hi to you, too, Mckenna," he said, chuckling and hugging me back. I laughed along and we both said how much we missed each other and then we pulled away. He asked where everyone else was and I said that our parents were on business trips and Doniya, Waliyha, and Safaa were at other friend's houses.

"Oh, I see, they didn't want to see me," he said, fake crying.

"Oh, shush. I STILL MISSED YOU!" I shouted while giving him another hug. We both laughed again and then he had a look of realization on his face.

"Oh! I almost forgot," he moved out of the way a little to show me four other guys behind him, "these 'people' are my bandmates," he said while putting air quotes around the word 'people'. They all gave him a pout and I smiled.

"This is Liam," he pointed to a guy with his head practically shaved and a birthmark on his neck. He put his hand out to me and I shook it. "Hi," I said to him. He just nodded and we let go.

"Harry," he pointed to someone with curly hair kind of like mine. He smiled exposing his dimples. We both shook each other's hands and greeted each other.

"Niall," he pointed to the blonde one of the group. Instead of shaking my hand, he reached out and gave me a hug. I just chuckled once and hugged him back quickly. We both pulled away.

"You have officially received your first Horan Hug!" Zayn said. I raised an eyebrow at him and said, "Now I see why you call them 'people'." They just gave me a pout, so I stuck my tongue out at them.

"And lastly," Zayn said with a chuckle, "this is--" he was cut off by the guy wearing a striped shirt and messy side-swept hair, "Jennifer," he said. "And we are...The Wanted!" he continued.

"Like I said, LASTLY this is Louis," Zayn said, putting a hand on Louis' shoulder. I just laughed and shook his hand quickly.

"Nice to meet you all," I said, "I'm Mckenna and now that we've gone through these introductions, I'd like you lads to meet the girls," I continued.

I led them all into the living room where the girls were all sitting around, still talking. Yep, we're a talkative bunch.

"Girls," I said, getting the girls' attention, "I'd like you guys to meet: Liam, Harry, Niall, you already know Zayn, and....Jennifer," I said, pointing to each of the guys while saying their names and pointing to Louis when I said Jennifer. They all gave me confused looks so I just said, "You had to be there, but that's Louis," I said, now pointing to Louis when I said his name.

"Ello!" all the girls said while waving.

"And, these are my friends: Alexandra, Kristina, and Vanessa, but if you call them that, they'll kill you. You can call them Ally, Kristy, and Vanny," I said, while pointing to each of the girls. Now it was their turn to wave.
