My 1D Brothers

An Unexpected Visit

I'm one of those girls who's too smart, doesn't have the biggest wardrobe, and nobody understands. I knew it, my family knew it, and the people at school knew it too. It was obvious. My mom tells me I'm pretty, but I'm too bony. Fine, I am. But that's besides the point. I knew I wasn't perfect. But there was one thing I was good at. Dancing. I've been dancing for 5 years and I was getting pretty good. I wanted to show my skill to people. I wanted to become a professional dancer. So I work hard. Really hard. (by the way, I'm 14, the middle child.)

Erika POV:

It was a Sunday night in New York and I was taking my dog out before I went to bed. I step outside into the cold weather of November and tell my dog to pee. She wanders around a bit, pees, then starts barking her head off.

"Hey! stop barking, will ya? We have neighbors you know! I don't love them with all my heart, but I'm not about to get in trouble again because of your barking!"

That's when I heard chuckles. I froze. It was dark, and it was a male chuckle. Male. Chuckle. That could only mean one thing. Pedophile. I tried to get my dog to come inside, but she ran to the other side of the yard to the gate and started barking. She wouldn't stop. "You bitch! Literally!"

Another chuckle.

"Who's there?"

Five shadows emerge from outside the gate.

"Get away from here! I'll call the police!"

"Wait!"

I recognized the voice immediately. Liam Payne? Wait no. It can't be. One Direction was in New York City, which is like a 2 hour drive from here. The motion detector light came on and in front of me were five of the most attractive people in the world.

Really? Does it have to be today, NOW that I meet One Direction? When I'm in my pajamas and my hair is wet and flat?! I'm like the biggest Directioner and my first impression is going to be TERRIBLE!

"Um love?"

It was Louis' voice. My heart almost stopped. He called me love! Okay, calm down.

"Uh sorry. Hi. I'm Erika."

"We're One Direction." The boys say in unison. I laugh.

"Yea, I know." and I point to the bracelet on my wrist that has their names on it.

They all smile. "So what are you guys doing here?"

"Well, we were being chased by the paparazzi so we got on a train and ended up here." Harry explained, and winked at me. I blush and look down. I introduce them to my big dog, a German Shepherd-Doberman mix 2 year old puppy and they hesitate to pet her.

"Don't worry, she won't bite. She just looks like she does." I laugh at the cautious boys.

"She was protecting you from us. She must really love you." Zayn looked at me and said.

"Yea. I'm like her master and trainer. She's a really smart and fast learner so I teach her tricks. But she's like a little sister to me." I smile.

I invite the boys inside and call to my parents. I introduce them to the boys and at first they're really upset. But the boys tell them what's going on and tell the boys they can stay for a bit.

While my parents get pillows and blankets ready, I introduce my older sister who's 17 and my younger sister who's 11 to the boys. They freak out and tell the boys they can sleep in their rooms. Louis and Zayn sleep in my older sister's room and Harry goes to my little sister's room. I guess Liam and Niall are in my room, then.

"You lay a finger on my sisters and you'll be messing with me!" I call to Louis, Zayn, and Harry.

The three of them laugh and go into the rooms.

Liam and Niall come into my room, and the first thing they see are my posters. They smile and tell them that they appreciate the support. I tell them thanks for the inspiring and hope-giving music they create.

Liam POV:

Erika's quite the pretty, small, delicate girl. She has a small face, she's really skinny, and really big eyes. Cute, in my opinion. Niall and I go into her room and see her posters. I smile and tell her thanks for the support. She opens her closet door and reveals more smaller posters of us. Niall and I laugh as she blushes.

Niall POV:

I'm hungry. But I'll hold off till morning. Erika invites me and Liam into her room and we lay down on the floor with blankets and pillows. We tell her thanks and she turns off the light. Then, she started to speak.

"This is real, right? Because if this is a dream, I'm not waking up." she giggled into the darkness. I laugh. "Oh, it's real, darling."

"Well, then let me say this, in case it's not. I've always wanted a brother, and now it's almost as if I'll have five for a while." I can hear her getting serious. "I've always wanted an older brother who I could wrestle with, who would come to school to pick me up, who would laugh with me." She sounded like she really wanted a brother.

"Well then we can make your wish come true, Erika."

She laughed. "Thanks Nialler."

"Ah, already using my nickname, I see."

We laugh. Liam probably fell asleep. "So, you have a crush, Erika?" I ask carefully.

"Well yea. Doesn't everybody?" she giggled. God, her giggle is cute. Woah, I can't be feeling like this. I'm like, 5 years older than her. And she thinks of me as a future brother, not boyfriend.

"Care to tell me about him?"

"Well actually, it's a her." She says seriously. I don't say anything for a while and she starts laughing. "I'm kidding Niall!"

We laugh.

"He's really cute. I can't tell you his name though. I've only known you for half an hour. But let me tell you, he's good looking, sweet, smart, and perfect." She says drifting off.

"Well I'll talk to you tomorrow love." I say. "Good night, Nialler. Thanks for listening." She says. "No problem little sis." But she doesn't respond.

Erika POV:

Niall just called me "little sis". I really hope this isn't a dream.
