I reached the hotel Niall had given me the address of. It really was an amazing hotel, really fancy and luxurious. I looked around the place amazed. I had never been in a place like this one before.
I walked up to the desk where I guessed the receptionist was. A lady was sitting there, typing something on the computer and answering phones. I stood there waiting for her to finish talking on the phone until she finally turned to me.
"May I help you?" she asked
"Yeah, I'm here to visit someone" I said "Top floor, room 14"
"You can't" the lady said turning to the computer once again
"But why not?" I asked
"Visits from fans are not allowed" she said simply "I'm sorry"
"But I'm not a fan!" I exclaimed "I came to visit Niall"
"As I said, you can't. I'm sorry"
I sighed and walked away from the desk. It was no use complaining with her, she wouldn't let me go and if I continued trying to convince her it was more likely she would call security and they would kick me out of the hotel.
I called to my phone, hoping Niall will answer, but he didn't. I tried calling again but no one answered. I sighed frustrated, putting the phone away. I sat down on one of the sofas on the lobby, trying to think of a way of going to Niall's room.
I tried calling him other two times and sent him around 5 texts but he didn't answer, any!
I was going to send another text when the phone started to vibrate in my hands. The photo of a guy with messy brown hair and blue eyes appeared and the name "Louis" appeared below.
I fight occurred in my mind, deciding to answer or not. I shouldn't, it wasn't my phone, but I could recognize the guy from being in the background of Niall's phone, and also I remembered him from the airport. He was probably pant of the band Zayn had said he was part of. And if he was, then he should be staying in this same hotel and he would know why Niall was not answering and could tell him I was waiting at the lobby.
"Hello?" I asked, deciding to answer
"Hey Nialler!" Came a cheering voice on the other line "Hazza and I are on our way, make sure to have lunch ready"
"uuuummmm….I'm sorry, Niall is not here" I said
"Oh" he said "And…who is this?"
"My name is Alexandra, and I accidently mixed phones with Niall at the airport" I said
"Oh right! How could I forget!" he exclaimed "I'm sorry…I'm Louis by the way"
"Hey Lou! Who you talking to?" came a voice from behind
"Remember Niall mixed phones with a girl at the airport?" Louis asked, obviously to the other person he was with "I'm talking to her"
"You mean, the hot chick that appears in the photos of the phone Niall had?"
"That's her, I guess"
"Uuuuh…you do know I'm still here, don't you?" I asked rolling my eyes
"Right, sorry" Louis said putting his attention back to me
"Let me talk to her!" I hear the other guy say and I could hear as he got hold of the phone, much to Louis' protests "Hello, I'm Harry"
"Hey…look, I really need to talk to Niall" I said "I need my phone back"
"Why don't you go to the hotel we're staying at?" Harry asked
"I'm here but they won't let me go to your room!" I exclaimed
"Well…we're on our way there" he said "why don't you wait for us and we'll take you to the room?"
"Guess that's the only option" I said sighing
"Alright, we'll be there in a mo"
"Goodbye Alex!" I heard Louis say before hanging up.
I sighed and lay back against the sofa. I noticed Niall had internet in his phone so I started to look for some info about this band Zayn was at. I typed his name "Zayn Malik" on Google and soon many links appeared. I pressed the link to Wikipedia and started to read. I was surprised there was a biography of Zayn in Wikipedia. I found out he's part of the famous British-Irish boy band One Direction.
I remembered the song I had heard in the taxi and couldn't help but think they were really talented.
I read some more about the band and the other four guys: Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles, Liam Payne and Niall Horan. I then started to look for pictures. Yes, they were definitely the guys I had seen at the airport. I couldn't believe how famous they were. Another thought came into my mind. Many girls would find me lucky. I had mixed phones with Niall Horan, had talked on phone with Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles and also had been friends with Zayn Malik for two years. This was crazy!
"You're Alex, right?" I heard someone say from behind.
I closed the tabs in the phone and put it away, standing up and turning around to face Louis and Harry.
"That's me" I said nodding with a small smile in my face
"Nice to meet you, I'm Louis"
"And I'm Harry"
"I know" I said, shaking both of their hands "I mean, who doesn't knows who you are?"
"That's true" Harry said smirking
"So…should we go?" Louis asked
"Please?"
He chuckled and started to walk away, telling me to follow. I followed him with no hesitation and Harry walked next to me.
"So…how come you mixed phones with Niall?" Harry asked
"He bumped against me on the airport" I said "all my stuff in my bag fall and he helped me pick it all up…I think it was there"
"Oh I remember" Louis said, looking at us over his shoulder "He apologized at least a hundred times"
"They weren't that much" I said
"Oi!" Harry exclaimed "So you were the girl who was waiting for her trunk next to us?"
"That was me" I said nodding
We reached their room. When Louis opened the door and I stepped inside I couldn't help but notice how messy it was inside. There was stuff everywhere! And you could hear voices coming from every direction.
"Don't eat all the chips, Niall!" someone yelled "We'll have lunch soon!"
"But I'm Hungry!" yelled someone else, I guessed it was Niall "And Lou and Harry are taking too long!"
"Shut up guys!" A new voice called "We got to get this room cleaned"
"Why?" the other two guys called back
"Because we're having a guest!" the other called back "Niall, you should know about that!"
I turned to Louis and Harry confused. They both shrugged and walked deeper inside the house. I decided to follow. I really didn't feel like staying all alone at the door waiting.
"We're home!" Louis called
"And we found someone on our way here!" Harry added
Soon three more guys walked inside the living room where Louis and Harry had guided me to. There was the Irish boy, Niall. The other guy whose name I had read was Liam and next to him was Zayn.
Zayn's eyes widened when he saw me.
"Alexandra!" Niall said smiling at me
"Hello" I said smiling back
"What are you doing here?" Zayn asked
"I'm here to get my phone back" I said, my attention turning to Niall "I called you but you didn't answer! I had been waiting in the lobby for at least 20 minutes until Louis and Harry called and they offered to guide me here!"
"I'm sorry" Niall apologized "But Liam took the phone away!"
"Just because Louis and Harry were stalking it" Liam said, giving me back my phone "I'm Liam by the way"
"Alexandra" I said smiling as I grabbed my phone in my hands "Here's yours by the way" I said giving Niall his own phone
"Thanks" he said
"Just to make it clear" Harry spoke "We were not stalking your phone!"
"You were" Liam said rolling his eyes
Niall offered me a drink and I accepted. He guided me to the kitchen, everyone else following behind. Niall gave me some soda and I thanked him, taking a small sip from the glass.
"Alexandra" Zayn Spoke "May I have a word with you?"
"Uh…sure!"
He guided me outside, closing the sliding door behind him.
"Put all the pieces together yet?" I asked raising an eyebrow
"I think I have, Lexy"
At the sound of my old nickname my heart skipped a beat. I looked at him and smiled. He gave me a weak smile in return.
I couldn't help myself. I wrapped my arms around him, hugging him tightly. He was taken back, but then hugged me back.
"I can't believe you forgot about me!" I cried
"I didn't!" he said breaking apart
"You didn't recognized me the first two times we saw each other"
"You look different from what you looked like…You changed your hair" He said pointing at my curls "they're too perfect"
"Don't you like it?"
"I do…but it's not you" he said "I like your messy, curly, bushy brown hair better"
I giggled and looked at my shoes. I remember how I never used to comb my hair and I would let it loose, standing in every direction possible. People used to tell me it looked like Hermione's in the first two movies of Harry Potter, just a bit messier.
"I thought it annoyed you" I said, remembering how he loved his hair to be perfect and how he couldn't stand mine being so messy
"It does…but I like how you look with it"
We kept talking, catching up a little when Niall, Liam, Louis and Harry walked out of the door, going to our direction.
"Hey! Not fair" Harry cried
"You can't take Alex away and flirt with her!" Louis said to Zayn "I saw her first!"
"Not true!" Niall said "I saw her first"
"Actually, I meet her first" Zayn said
"Why are you fighting over this, anyways?" I asked
"To see who gets to date you first" Louis said smirking
"Sorry, I'm not getting into relationships right now"
"I will wait"Louis said winking
"Actually" Liam said rolling his eyes at Zayn "We came to see who was up for lunch, of course you are invited Alexandra"
"Please, call me Alex" I said "And I'm sorry, but I'm supposed to meet with a friend at the new Pizza place"
"Invite her!" Harry said "We were going there anyways"
"Are you sure?" I asked "She's a fan of your band"
"Makes it all better" Niall said excited "We love to meet our fans"
"Yeah! Call her!" Louis exclaimed
"Alright…we'll meet her there"
I texted Irine telling her I was bringing some friends with me. She texted back telling me it was alright.
"Let's go then!"
