Alanah and Chloe took the boys to the Pizza On A Stick booth so that they could enjoy some genuine fair food. The group was laughing about something when Alanah felt a tap on her shoulder. When she turned it was a shock to see Louis standing there.
"Um hi?" is all Alanah said.
"Do you mind if I talk to you for a second in private?" Louis asked quietly.
Without replying she stood up and told the group she would be back. Her and Louis walked to an empty picnic table sitting across from eachother.
"So what is so important that you wanted to talk to me without your 'lads' and pulling me away from my death on a stick?" Alanah asked as they sat down.
Louis looked down, " I just wanted to say thank you for not commenting on what happened yesterday and last night. I would hate for my ex-girlfriend to ruin your reputation. I don't know if you've been on twitter but our , the band's, fans are really upset with what she did and how everything was handled... But they did say that your comment about her being a buckle bunny was quite amusing, even if I don't know what that means, can you tell me?"
"Um you're welcome. And uh sure basically a buckle bunny is someone that goes to rodeos just go behind the bucking shoots and try to get with the riders. I didn't know who Eleanor was so I just assumed that's what she was here for. I honestly don't listen to yalls band." Alanah shyly answered.
With that Louis took off sprinting towards Chloe and the boys.
"What an odd child that one." Alanah said to herself smiling.
When Alanah got back to the rest of the group Louis was going on about how she didn't know who they were and she didn't listen to their music. The rest of the boys told him that they already knew this because she was hanging out with them last night after everything happened.
"What? How can we be friends with someone that doesn't know who we are lads?" Louis shouted.
"Because Louis just because I don't know yalls music doesn't mean I can't be friends with yall. Wouldn't it be better that way so you know im not friends with yall for money? Because sorry guys I make money too. Other than Harry yall don't know me and i'm famous in the rodeo community, so why should I be friends with yall?" Alanah half shouted back.
This time it was Niall who spoke up,"Hang on WHAT DOES YALL MEAN?"
"It's short for you all, yall. It's a southern thing like when YALL say lads like you could say guys but you don't." Chloe yelled, adding emphasis on the yall.
After about an hour of sitting on the bench Alanah told everyone she needed to go check up on Flo and would text Chloe to figure out where they were at.
"Hey La can I join you so we could talk?" Harry whispered as she walked past.
Smiling Alanah nodded, " So la? I kinda like it, but what should I call you? I kinda liked har but that sounds weird so you shall be called curls."
"Ok, if that's what you want to call me." Harry chuckled.
It wasn't long until the two were in the horse stalls that Harry brought up what happened in the interview.
"So now can you tell me what the reporter meant?" Harry asked shyly.
"Oh yeah, I don't mind talking about it because it was caught on video I just didn't want the other boys to really question because they probably won't understand. But uhm I was at a jackpot show just as a fun ride and Flo spooked right as we were rounding the second barrel and I uh broke my neck." Alanah looked down embarrassed because Harry was a fan of hers.
"You broke your neck? How long ago? Because that's not just something that can be fixed in a week?" Harry raced with questions.
Alanah chuckled, "It happened about 3 years ago when I was 18. I wasn't that well known in the adult circuit yet so this is my first time at Houston competing on the main stage. But yeah i just started riding professionally about a year ago. It's been a rollercoaster which sucks because roller coasters are scary."
Harry looked at her with wide eyes, " You are superwoman and I'm glad I'm not the only one who hates those rides, they could break down at any time."
