It's Only You (A One Direction FanFic)

Chapter 1

Chapter 1

-Thalia's POV-

    I woke up to the sound of keys shuffling and a door closing. Kairi just got back from her run. I got up and checked the time; it's 6:30 in the morning. This was the usual time She got back from her morning runs. I got up and stretched and did my daily exercise routine. I was greeted by Kairi in the kitchen as I prepared my breakfast: a protein shake. I offered my friend some as I gathered the ingredients. "Kai, want some of my world famous protein shake?" I asked.

    "It depends, what are you putting in it this time? The last one you made gave me a good energy boost but my stomach didn't do so well that day," she said.

    I laughed and playfully smacked her arm. "I'm putting cottage cheese, milk, vanilla protein powder, vanilla NONFAT yogurt, and some honey. Want to give it a try?"

    "Sure, why not. Wait, aren't you lactose-intolerant?" she asked me. I shook my head and explained to her that it just randomly went away, then I made my shake. I took a sip and I enjoyed it. I handed some to Kairi and she was hesitant at first, but she was enjoying it as well. "You should make this more often. This is my new favorite," she said.

   "What was your first favorite?" I laughed.

   "The peaches and cream one! Although it had a wheaty after taste, I still liked it," she answered. 

   I put my shake into a travel cup as I prepared my clothes for the day. Kairi and I were planning to watch a movie with Nicole, the third person in our terrific trio. As I was about to walk into the bathroom, my mom called me. "Hello?" I said.

   "Thalia, you and Kairi are coming to the office today. It's bring your daughter to work day," said my mom.

   I rolled my eyes. "Mom, we're too old for that! We had plans for today."

   "Thalia Rose Prescott, you listen to me. You two are coming to the office today. Tell Kairi that her mom is expecting her here too. Oh, and you guys can get paid today if you actually get something done. Maybe Kris has something for you guys to take pictures of."

    "Tell Kairi's mom I said hi! Kris is back from his Europe trip? We'll be there, mom! I'll tell Kairi and we'll cancel our plans with Nicole, Hannah, Aileen, and Jill. I'm going to get ready now. I'll see you later, mom! I love you!"

    "I love you too, sweet heart. See you later," she said, ending the call.

    I walked to Kairi's room and told her our change of plans. She was all for it, considering that she just really likes to go with the flow. I went back to my room and finished my shake before stepping in the shower. I put on my undergarments and put on my clothes. I was wearing a white sort of muscle tee with a sequined lightning bolt, a maroon skirt, a black cardigan with studs on the shoulders, and my favorite metallic light-gold Doc. Marten's. This outfit made my lean and tall figure stand out. I put my long medium brown hair in a messy bun and I did my makeup lightly, but just so that it would make my blue green  eyes stand out. I put my camera in my purse and went to check on Kairi.  

   Kairi was almost ready, she was just looking for her camera. She found it in her other bag and she put her beanie on as we got ready to leave. 

    "Who's driving?" she asked. I laughed and she smacked me.

   "Kai, it's New York. It's so impossible to drive!" I said.

   "Oh, right. Three years of living here and I'm still not used to not driving in the city"

   "Anyways, we can just take the L-train and get off at Union Square and take the Lexington Ave Line to Grand Central Station. It's about a three mile walk from there," I said. She gave me a questioning look. "I know we barely moved here, but since we got here, I've been out and about in the city while you were here studying." Kairi shook her head and signaled for us to leave. We left our apartment in Brooklyn and headed to Bedford Ave to get to the L-train. 

   As we arrived at Grand Central Station, Kairi said "That was so fun! I've never ridden the Lexington Ave Line before. It's always been the L-train and occasionally the Broadway Line to get to NYU." 

   "Yeah, I know. I take the subway with you to get to school..." I replied. 

    After walking through the city and occasionally stopping to get some shots of the city, we finally arrived at the place in which both our mothers work. We said hi to Ed, the security guard and headed to the 25th floor. We greeted everyone we knew and we went to my mom's office. It was the treasury manager's office. My mom was at her desk, doing work. She had so many things from when I was still little hanging in her office. I saw my 8th grade graduation picture by her desk. I walked up to her and said hi. She told us that she had a lot of work to do and that we should stop by Kairi's mom's office before going to see Kris. Kairi's mom's office was right down the hall. We went in and it was sort of the same as my mom's in terms of childhood pictures. She too had a lot of work to do so we headed to the 28th floor to see Kris. 

    "There's my girls! Come give your Uncle Kris a hug!" he said. 

   "Kris, your hair! It's gone!" I laughed. Kairi added that he grew a goatee and it suited him. He laughed at our comments and he brought us over to his work area. 

   "Some 5 guys are coming for a photo shoot today. I want you to take some shots of them. I'm pretty sure that you two have gotten pretty good at taking pictures! Your mothers sent me some of your work while I was in Europe. I got these fellas to come here when I was working there!" said Kris.

  "European guys?! Oh yes!" I exclaimed. I got so excited that I started jumping and I texted Hannah, telling her to be jealous of us. We set up for the shoot as Kris went to get the "models." He didn't really say who or what they were but we knew they were 5 European guys. I mean, what can get better than that? Just then, I heard a really cute laugh and a deep, British voice trying to tell a joke but he just kept laughing. As I looked up at the people approaching, I saw Kris and five of the sexiest guys I've ever seen. I froze and I turned to Kairi. "Kai, is tha-?" I couldn't even finish my sentence, but she knew what I said. "Yes, it's them." I screamed in my head a little and I wanted to just jump and explode. We were going to be taking pictures for One Direction's photo shoot.
