Still the One (One Direction Fan fiction) (ON HOLD)

Chapter 1 ~ sᴛɪʟʟ ᴀɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀ ᴅᴀʏ

Sarah's P.O.V

So maybe you think I'm going to begin by telling you the story of how awesome my life is since Niall Horan is my twin, and how life next to a celebrity and fame is just at the top of the most incredible things to happen to anyone, but sadly it isn't any fairytale you would expect... and by this I don't mean I don't love Niall or that It's horrible to have him as a brother because it's the complete opposite, I truly love him since he's been my fort and wall when others just couldn't do it... and he has cooed my every tear. But... once he left, I felt a switch, and that's when hell broke loose.
I stopped talking to my friends, I didn't eat at all, I never left my room, and every time I could, I would go into Youtube and watch all of Niall's performances. I still remember my brother go put into the boy group that later got named "One Direction". It had been a gloomy english rainy day when I clicked in the newest video put up by the Xfactor channel and felt the anxiety seep in as the intro appeared on my laptop, I always found it annoying as it always put the suspense on the events occuring at the show.
I had been watching for a little while when my ears perked at the mention of my brother's name. I had to admit I had kinda zoned out while watching until I spotted Niall's face clear on my screen blotchy and red and tear stained.
My heart sunk instantly and my hand slapped to my mouth before I could process what was happening. My breaths came out ragged as I watched him cover his face from the camera, as an old habit he had acquired through the passing years, I finally just walk away heart broken. I was confused then. I had been so sure he had the whole material to get through all the stages it was such a heartbreaking let down.

The show went on and my head just kept spinning in confusion, Why hadn't Niall called to tell me he was coming back home then? The Xfactor videos were always posted 1 or 2 hours after the show aired so by now I must have heard back from him, What could possibly have happened?
I intently focused back on the screen and noticed a guy was talking to all of the rejected boys and had a clipboard in one hand, the other supporting the side of it. A beanie hung loose on his head as he neutrally called out some names I only faintly recognized.
I kept on watching until my heart always ripped out of my chest at hearing Niall's name being called out by the hipster staff guy.
I could notice in the screen how he instantly picked his head up in confusion and frowned in that way that both of us always did when we felt completely lost.
Niall looked at the guy and steppes out of the crowd before the video shot straight to Niall and four other devastated looking boys that stood tensely next to each other, one or two nervously draping their arms in some probable set of comfort.
Niall, I noticed, had started biting his nail with that terrible habit both of us had developed as kids when our nerves were going haywire. He had a worried expression and huge blue eyes as he stared at the judges for a few minutes.
Then Nicole raised a microphone to her lips and began talking.
"Hello, thank you so much for coming back," Nicole began her voice gentle and understanding. "We can see, judging by some of your faces that this is really hard.." She continued. "We thought long and hard about it and about each of you as individuals... but we think you're just too talented to let go of.
We think it would be a great idea... to have two separate groups.." Nicole lingered, I watched with big eyes and dangerous set of high hopes as Simon then proceeded to speak into his microphone, calmly and slowly.

"We decided you all back in the competition."
The screams that followed were neatly followed by my loud squealing and happy fat tears that spilled from my eyes as I shook with relief and excitement. He got put through.

The excitement and joy I felt in that moment couldn't have gotten bettee until minutes after I finished watching the video the one and only Niall called with glee in his voice.
"Have you seen it yet?" He asked with no needed greeting as we had talked earlier in the morning when he had blabbered for hours of his worries of not getting through and his plans if that were to happen. I had dutifully listened to him and hmm and ahh'd at the right moments while giggling at his raw sense of humor.
"I have! Nialler you made it, you're getting there hun, I can't believe it. I'm massively proud of you," I whimpered excitedly as some leftover happy tears fell down my cheeks.
Niall hummed and then probably smiled as he started squealing into the phone. A humorous laugh left my lips as I stared at the ceiling happily.
"Thank you sis, I couldn't have auditioned without you and I'm very grateful I did. S, I'm happy and I really didn't think I was ever going to even pass auditions. I'm very grateful you watch the show just because of me. I love you very much and I miss you tons. Sis you've gotta meet these boys, they're hilarious!" Niall said, his thick irish accent sounded bold over the speaker of my phone and I couldn't have felt more at home.
An hour later we had exchanged some loving words and some other I miss you's and what not. Finally hanging up I laid my back comfortably on my bed and sighed deeply.
He made it.

Eveything was good and even though Niall wasn't here I felt relaxed, I felt a little bit less tense and more warm, a feeling I had missed since Niall had left.

When he returned home after he ended up in 3rd place he brought he's oh-so-lovely friends along and we all ate dinner together.

It turned out they were all very amazing and kind and I couldn't have felt anymore proud of my brother as he spoke happily to his fellow bandmates of the future and what they though it held for them.
By the end of the night I had gained not 2 but 7 brothers and some close bonds with each of them. All in all it had been, probably, the most fun I had had in a while.

Then One Direction came out with the new single "What Makes You Beautiful" and that's when Niall started his magical and famous unforgettable journey while I was stuck here in Mullingar.

And well that's where the story begins...
