-The Next Day-

"Allison?" A voice comes from outside the door, along with a light knock. I recognize the voice to be Eleanor's. 

"Come in," I invite, continuing to search through my closet for something to wear. Eleanor, Perrie, and Dani enter the room, looking at all of the clothes strewn across my floor.

"What the heck is going on in here?" Perrie asks, each of them finding a spot to sit on on the bed.

"I'm trying to look for something to wear," I explain.

"Where are you going, may we ask?" Dani speaks.

"Honestly, I don't know," I answer truthfully, tugging on a pair of jeans and checking myself out in the mirror. 

"Those look good on you."

"Really?" 

"Yeah, makes your butt look really good."

"Allison, by the flustered look on your face and the numerous tops and bottoms discarded on the floor, I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you're going out to meet a guy," Eleanor says and Perrie gasps.

"A guy?? Allison, why didn't you tell us," she throws a pillow at me. I dodge it and try on a shirt. "And you should wear that too, by the way."

I sigh, keeping the shirt on and looking for a pair of shoes. 

"You still haven't answered our question."

"I didn't tell anyone because...well..." I trail off. Honestly, I didn't tell anyone because I thought they'd judge me. I thought that they'd think I was moving on from Harry too fast and that what I was doing was wrong. In short, I guess I was just afraid for them to tell me the truth.

"There's nothing wrong with you going out with a guy, Allison," Dani says. "In fact, we encourage it. It's a lot better seeing you happy and upbeat rather than moping around."

"Yeah. We wouldn't have judged you or anything. You should trust us more than that," El says, a little trace of hurt in her voice. I sigh before apologizing. What was I thinking? Of course I could trust the girls with this. Why wouldn't I be able to?

After giving me advice on how I should do my makeup and hair, I take a shower and dress in the clothes the girls also instructed me to wear. 

"Alli? There's someone down here for you," Liam calls from downstairs just as Dani assures me that my eyeliner is even.

"Okay, I'll be down there in a minute," I call back down.

"Okay, you've got everything?" Dani asks. I nod my head.

"Purse? Cell phone, gum?"

"Check, check, check." I assure them.

"Good," Perrie says. "Now let's go! I wanna meet this guy!"

I grab my purse, check my reflection once more in the mirror, and then walk down the stairs, Perrie, Eleanor, and Danielle trailing close behind me. As soon as I get to the bottom step, Zayn's giving me a questioning stare. 

I hear laughter coming from the front room and mouth 'Perrie will explain' before advancing my way towards the noise. 

"There she is," Louis exclaims as I enter the room. I notice that Daliah, Brooklyn, and Nicholas are in there as well, Daniel crouched down to their level so as to talk to them.
