Chapter nine
I only met Lou an hour ago and now the two of us are in the dressing room fitting the mountain of clothing we picked out.
"No sweetie, definitely not your colour." Lou squints her eyes and cocks her head to the side. "Maybe the blue?"
I put on the blue dress. "What do you think?"
"Yes, much better. Come and show Harry."
Harry whistles as I step out of the dressing room and I can feel my cheeks burning up. "You like it?"
"Very nice."
We ended up buying everything in the pile I fitted except the one Lou turned down. Thank goodness my uncle took out a savings bond for me all those years ago.
We enter the supermarket and I made my way to the sanitary isle. Thank goodness. I bet I smell so bad by now.
When we got back to the hotel room I was so tired from all the shopping.
"Wow, is there anything left in the stores?"
"Very funny Louis. I am going to take a shower."
"I was wondering where the smell came from."
I stuck out my tongue taunting him.
"That is a punishable offence."
"I would love to see you try."
He takes a bite of the chicken seductively. "Maybe later."
I enter my room and place all the shopping bags on the bed. Now where is the bag with the cleaning equipment?
After finding the bag I went to the bathroom and started the shower. Steam started forming above my head. I stood there staring at the ceiling before I decided to get in the shower. After my shower I wrap the towel around my body and made my way back to my room.
I start digging through the bags trying to find something to wear. I found a pair of jeans and a t-shirt.
"Wow look at you. You look like a free woman."
"I feel like a free woman." Zayn smiles at me.
I took a seat on the sofa. I don't even know what Louis was watching but it seemed interesting.

I was woken by the sudden sound of Liam screaming. I quickly jump up and run to the kitchen where the screams came from. As I enter a blob of cream hits my face. "What the hell?"
"Hey Vans off the wall, it's about time you came to join the party." Louis yelled from the other side of the kitchen, waving the can of whipped cream in the air.
"Louis, what are you guys doing?"
"Having a whipped cream fight." The words barely left Zayn's mouth when another blob came my way.
"You are so dead Liam." I run towards the counter and grabbed a hand full of cream and threw it right at Liam's face.
He ducked and it hit this fairly handsome guy square in the face.
"Hey what gives?"
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to hit you."
He reveals his hand from behind his back and rubs the cream in my hair. "Don't worry I got my revenge. The name is Josh, drummer for these crazy people."
"Ivanna." I shake his hand. "I bet you say that to all the girls."
"It doesn't always work the way I want to."
"Pity."
"What is going on here? Aww, Joshy is talking to a girl."
"Harry are you jealous?"
"No my dear Joshy. You see Van and I already have a strong bond."
I laugh at Harry's comment. Someone grabs me from behind and with one swift move I drop him to the ground.
"Oh my goodness! I am so sorry Louis." I kneel beside him.
"I think you killed my lungs. I can't breathe."
"Louis you just got the wind knocked out of you by a girl." Zayn laughs and the rest of the boys join.
"I am so sorry Louis. Your wind is just knocked out. Do you feel any pain otherwise?"
"No, but you bruised my ego." The boys laugh louder and Paul came running into the kitchen.
Paul gives the situation one look and starts laughing. "Louis I told you that girls are dangerous. Do you believe me now?"
I smile and help Louis of the ground. After he got his balance back he tackles Zayn to the ground. "Did you just laugh at me?"
They start a wrestling match on the kitchen floor. I stand back and look at the scene playing off in front of me. It feels like I have known these people all my life. I only met them last night and I already feel like I belong. Like I found my long lost family.
Niall moves to my side and hands me a soda. He looks at me and flashes me a smile and jumps on the pile of boys starting to form on the floor.
"Come on Van!" Louis yells keeping Zayn down.
Without hesitation I jump on the pile and we all burst out in laughter.
