"AND THEY SAY SHE'S IN THE CLASS A TEAM STUCK IN HER DAYDREA-" I grabbed my phone and looked at who was calling: Lindsey.

"Hello?" I asked.

"I have news!" Lindsey exclaimed.

"Okay. Tell me." I replied.

"Go to the website we entered ourselves on a week ago." She told me. I rolled my eyes and pulled up the website.

"Okay now what?" I asked.

"Read the list of names." I went through the names.

"Linds you made it on!" I shouted, happy for my best friend.

"Keep reading." Lindsey excitedly said. I took a sip of my tea and kept reading. I spit out my sip.

"BETHANY HALL?!" I yelled.

"That's right. We are gonna be on the show together." I heard her squeal and suddenly I felt sick to my stomach. "Bethany? You okay?" Lindsey added.

"Yeah I'm fine. I'm gonna go read the rules." I replied. We told each other goodbye and I scrolled to the bottom to read the rules.

If you are reading this, you are one of our lucky ladies! The game show will be held in Los Angeles, so if you live out of the area we will provide plane tickets. We will also be providing food and places to stay.

"Beth? Can you come help me a second?" My mom called. I closed my laptop and dragged myself downstairs.

"Mom?" My mom looked up at me and raised her eyebrows. "Um Linds and I entered a contest together to be on a game show, and I made it in." I blurted.

"So you're gonna be on T.V.? That's my girl!" My mom raised her hand and waited for me to give her a high five.

"It's all the way in L.A.." I told her. She let her hand drop back to her side.

"How long will you be away?" My mom frowned.

"A few months." I traced circles on the countertop.

"Well, I'll be watching you every night." My mom walked over and kissed the top of my head. I gave her a hug and walked back upstairs. I hated my life.

<>*<>*<>*<>*

"Got your bag?" Lindsey asked.

"Check." I replied.

"Carry on?"

"Check."

"Keys?"

"Check."

"That's all." Lindsey said walking for my car. I snatched my purse off the table and got in the car. My mom walked over to the window and gave me a watery smile.

"Good luck, sweetie." My mom kissed the top of my head and a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Mom, if you start crying then ill start crying." I told her.

"And then everything would be a mess." Lindsey giggled. We told my mom goodbye and drove to the airport.

<>*<>*<>*<>*

"Bethany?" Lindsey tapped my shoulder and I opened my amber eyes.

"Yes?" I asked, arching an eyebrow.

"We're here." She smiled. I frowned and sat up. We both got off the plane and walked over to baggage claim. We were told that there would be a guy waiting for us.

"Can you help me lift this?" I asked Lindsey. She helped me get it down and we looked around for the guy. We saw someone holding a sign that said: "LINDSEY AND BETHANY (1D GAMESHOW)" I smacked my hand over my face and walked over to the guy in shame.

"Are you Lindsey and Bethany?" He asked.

"Yes sir we are!" Lindsey said, way too excitedly.

"I'm Robert and I'll be driving you to the house. Welcome to L.A.." Robert gave us a smile. Lindsey returned it and I just kept my frown.

"Cheer up...we're meeting One Direction!" She squealed.

"Oh joy." I replied. Lindsey rolled her eyes. Robert led us to a black Tahoe. Lindsey and I climbed into the back and Robert drove silently down the road.

"I'm so excited to meet Harry!" Lindsey told me.

"I'm excited to get voted off." I mumbled. I shoved my earbuds in my ears, and a few songs later we were there. Robert helped us carry out thing to our rooms (everyone gets their own) and then told us good luck. I walked over to my nightstand and looked at the additional rule book on top. I opened the first page:

Welcome to Los Angeles ladies! There are some rules we want to make sure everyone follows:

1. Curfew is at 11:30 pm

2. Filming starts everyday at 10:45 am sharp

3. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner will be served at 9:30 am, 1:00 pm, and 7:45 pm

This is how every week will go:

Monday- Activity with one boy

Tuesday- Activity with another boy

Wednesday- Activity with boy

Thursday- Activity with one boy

Friday- Activity with last boy

Saturday- Voting ceremony (5 off each week)

Sunday- Free day

I rolled my eyes at the rules and put the book back on top of my nightstand. Someone knocked at the door and, assuming it was Lindsey, I told them to come in. A girl with curly brown hair and blue eyes poked her head in. "Hi! I'm Liz! I'm the host of 'The Dream Life'. You're Beth right?" Liz asked.

"No." I replied. She gave me a confused look. "I'm Bethany." I added.

"Oh! My bad. I just wanted to give you the excellent news that One Direction will be arriving in 15 minutes!" Liz squealed.

"Cool. Where's the kitchen?" I questioned. Liz looked at me like I was crazy.

"Down the hall, take a left...third door on your right." She mumbled.

"Great, thanks." I responded, walking past her and into the hallway. I stopped and knocked on Lindsey's door.

"Yes?" She asked poking her head out.

"Wanna go get food with me?" I asked, as I pointed down the hallway.

"Yes!" Lindsey exclaimed. We walked down the hallway together and made it into the kitchen. It was beautiful: granite countertop covered in bowls of fruit, fully stocked cabinets, and a fridge with tons if food. Myers widened as I grabbed some Twinkies out of a cabinet.

"Fist hostess go out of buissness?" I asked Lindsey. She nodded and snatched the box of Twinkies out of my hand. I took them back and ripped it open. We shoved all of them into our pockets and jackets and walked back to our room.

"Ladies, please follow me into the living room to meet One Direction!" Liz used a bullhorn from the hallway to let us know. I trudged into the hallway, my mouth full with Twinkie. I almost spit it out laughing when I saw Lindsey looking the same. "I'm going to call roll and I want you to line up in the order I call you." Liz added. "Jess?"

"Here."

"Kaci?"

"Here."

"Lindsey?"

"Here."

"Kristen?"

"Here."

"Dylan?"

"Present."

"Alicia?"

"Here."

"Massie?"

"Here."

"Bethany?"

"Whatever." I said and got in line next to the girl named Massie. Liz continued to call the rest of the girls and one by one we made a line.

"And Hailey?"

"Here." The last one got in line and Liz started reading the rules that I already read.

"You don't seem to happy to be here." Massie whispered.

"I'm not. I signed up as a joke and look what happened." I replied. Massie smiled and tossed her light brown hair over her shoulder.

"Well, I think it's kinda cool that you're the only girl here who doesn't like One Direction." She said. I gave her a half smile, but got distracted by what Liz was saying.

"Everybody, I want you to meet...ONE DIRECTION!" Liz yelled. I rolled my eyes and a door opened. Five boys walked in and the room erupted in squeals.

Hey guys!

So guess what just happened? We were driving to Hilton Head for vacation (our bags on the roof, strapped down) and our bags fell off. Then (being the smart person he was) an 18 wheeler truck driver hit it and it exploded (clothes everywhere :/ ) and he didn't even stop! Some other cars pulled over and helped but it was kind of upsetting. The bag my mom gave me after my parents got divorced, my wand, and my flat iron are all ruined. Most of my clothes and shoes are good but some things are ripped up. Yeah, worst. Vacation. Ever.

Anyway sorry to be a downer. So I hope you guys like it so far but I'm not sure when the next chapter will go up. I'm off to Target where hopefully we can replace some items. ;) love you guys.

P.S. please read my other book "Reverse" and read "When it's tough" by "carrleeighhh". Thanks.
