FIVE

I wake up and roll over in my bed. I stretch and smile at the ceiling. I just lay there thinking about last night. Did it really happen? I wish there was something that could prove it did. That's when I remember their phone numbers. I whip over with ninja-like reflexes and get my phone. Looking through my contacts, I am pleased to see the names Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, and Niall Horan in the list among my other contacts. This could be the happiest moment of my life.

I get up and, finally, have my fangirl reaction. In the process of shrieking and jumping up and down, I wake up Scarlett and Iana. They look at me with an odd expression on their face, and I jump back on the bed to show them my phone.

"It wasn't a dream! We met One Direction! We have their phone numbers!" I shriek excitedly. Iana snatches my phone in disbelief. She reads through my contacts and double-checks the numbers to make sure they aren't someone else's. They are One Direction's real phone numbers.

We all jump out of the bed and continue my fangirl moment together. We shriek and scream and jump and cry until we realize my phone is ringing. I run to it and see "Incoming Call from: Liam Payne."

"Hello?" I say into the phone while swinging my arm behind me to hush my friends.

"Hi, Ceiba. We had a lot of fun yesterday and wanted to see you all again. Would that be fine if we met today?" Liam asked. I had a silent fangirl moment, and asked my friends. I already knew the answer would be yes, but I didn't want us to look desperate. I made sure he heard them say it was fine.

"We're fine with that. What time and where?"

"Well, we'd be honored if you came with us to the meet-and-greet tonight at 5 o'clock," he suggests. "Harry and Zayn say 'Hello'." I pretend to check with my friends, and tell them about Harry and Zayn. We all have another silent fangirl moment, and I respond to Liam.

"Okay. We'll meet you there."

"Actually, could you text me your address so that we can go pick you up?" Liam says and I can't believe my ears. He wants to come pick us up.

"Of course! I'll send it right away. Bye."

"Bye. I'll see you later." He hangs up the phone and I text him my address right away. I turn to my friends and let them know that the boys will pick us up at my house to go to the meet-and-greet. Liam replies: "thx ill b ther 4:30 :-)" I let my friends know and we all immediately look through our closets to find something nice to wear. I decide to wear jeans and a nice top. I don't want to over dress. I think about straightening my hair, but there's no point if it never stays straight. After fiddling with my hair for about 20 minutes, I decide to wear it natural. Thirty minutes until the guys are supposed to pick us up, I get a text message from Liam.

Ill b ther 15 min. erly :-)

I check on the girls to make sure they're ready. As they put the finishing touches on their look, I go to the bathroom and wash my teeth and face again. I decide to wear my make-up in natural colors. When One Direction finally arrives, Zayn calls me to tell us to come out. We walk out to find the 1D Tour Bus in front of my house. The doors open and Harry and Zayn hop out to greet us. Taking Zayn's hand, Iana steps onto the first step of the tour bus and climbs in. The same thing happens with Harry and Scarlett. I find myself abandoned on the street.

Liam pops out at the doorway as I'm pulling myself onto the first step. I'm pretty tall, so it's not too difficult to step up. Liam grabs my hand as I slightly lose my balance. He leads me up the steps and to a seat next to his on the tour bus. We all sit around and laugh and talk just like normal. We have some chips and candy and tell stories. Being around the boys is truly amazing.
