Falling Hard

Ready to Party

Maria's POV

Ugh... I can't believe that we have to leave tomorrow afternoon and we can't even see the boys until tonight. 

"Guys, we have to go home tomorrow..." I said.

"I know. This blows. And the boys have to go back over to London to record and do interviews and signings and all that for an entire month," Kailey said.

"I know, they won't even be back until like a week into summer vacation," I began. "I'm freaking out Kailey! Harry and I just started dating! How the hell can he go 5000 miles away for a month??"

"I know Maria. We're all in the same boat remember? I'm so scared Niall's gonna forget about me..."

"You know he's not going to. You guys are public now remember? He won't be able to escape the publicity."

"So? Maybe he'll get sick of all of that. I mean, if we can't even see each other, then what if he gets tired of all the press and drama before he even comes back over here?"

"He won't," I reassured my best friend. "Niall loves you. A lot. In fact, he probably loves you more than you love you. He's not going to give you up that easily."

"Thanks," she said giving me a hug. "You know Harry's the same way right? He can't stop thinking about you. Hell he can't even stop looking at you. I stole his phone awhile ago and took a picture of you two laying on the couch and when I saw him unlock it the other, it was his background. He really does love you."

"I know he does. I just can't believe he's gonna be gone. I already miss him..."

Just then, Katie walked into the kitchen where we were sitting.

"What's up?" She asked.

"Just talking about going home," Kailey told her.

"Can you believe this is over? I mean we came to LA and ended up dating One Direction. Now we have to go back to school and be without the guys..." I said.

"Actually guys, I've gotta tell you something," Katie said looking nervous.

Kailey and I just stared at her for a second with scared, confused looks on our faces.

"Spit it out," I said.

Katie's POV

"Well you see, I'm not exactly going back home with you guys," I said unable to look my friends in the yes.

"Katie, you're scaring me," Maria said.

"Quit screwing around and tell us what the fuck is going on. Why the hell aren't you coming back with us?" Kailey asked.

"I'm going with the boys. My dad is flying here and meeting us at LAX tomorrow afternoon and I'm going to London."

"Why?!!??" They both screamed.

"There's a performing arts school over there that I've been looking into. My dad said I have an interview for admission and that if we can find a way to get financial aid then I might be able to go there..."

"What the hell? You're going to England to apply for a school and if you get in you're moving? What the actual fuck man??" Kailey yelled.

"Look guys, I just found out yesterday. I was gonna tell you but then we were having so much fun... I kinda forgot. I'm staying with the boys for the time that I'll be there and I'll come back with them too. I'll be back as soon as school's out and I should know by then if I'm moving. I'm really sorry but can you guys please just be happy for me? It's hard enough having to leave behind everything I know for an entire month. Please don't be mad."
