UNREQUITED
Chapter 4
“Mellisa? Wake up, love.” The
pale curtains had been drawn wide open and Mum was sitting on
my bed. “A couple of the boys have come around asking if
you wanted to go for a walk around the city with them in
fifteen minutes?”
“Who?” I sat up rubbing my
eyes.
“You know, the One Direction boys?
The ones we’re on tour with?” Mum was nodding her
head in a really exaggerated way with her eyes opened wide, as
though I had some mental defect. Something suddenly clicked in
my brain and I scrambled out of bed for my
suitcase.
“Are they out there right
now?”
“No, I told them I’d wake you
and see if you weren’t completely exhausted and they said
they’d come back in fifteen minutes to get your
answer,” Mum explained. She watched me as I threw clothes
over my shoulder, searching for something to wear.
“You’re suddenly very awake,” Mum observed,
an eyebrow raised. “I take it since meeting the boys
yesterday you’ve taken a bit more interest in the trip,
huh?”
“What’s that supposed to
mean?” I said with my back to mum, a smile creeping onto
my face.
“All I’m saying is, don’t
do anything silly. And don’t forget your place on this
trip.” Her tone wasn’t entirely
serious.
“Stop being so cryptic mum. I just
woke up and you’re hurting my brain.” She sighed
and got up off my bed. “Hurry up and get ready you goose.
Harry’s waiting for you!” she broke into laughter,
darting out of my room. I was left staring after her,
shell-shocked. I hadn’t even spoken to her about the boys
and yet already, she knew which one I’d be fantasising
over.
Me and Mum had always shared a connection
like that. Especially since Dad left. She was my best friend
and unlike some other teenagers, I couldn’t wait to go
home to her at the end of the day and talk non-stop about
whatever I wanted. She always knew what I was thinking and how
I felt so I guess her little remark on my thoughts of Harry
shouldn’t have surprised me.
I didn’t want the boys to think I was
a try-hard and that I’d dressed up for a simple walk down
the street, so I opted for leggings, an oversized hoodie and a
worn pair of Docs. I kept my make-up light, asking Mum’s
opinion as I usually did. “On a scale of one to ten, how
much of a cake-face am I?” After a moment of deliberation
she answered with, “Negative four”. Her answer was
almost always in the negatives, so I could never be sure if she
was telling the truth or not but I trusted that she
wouldn’t let me out looking like a life-size
orange!
A knock at the door sent shivers up my
spine. I was checking over myself in the mirror for what was
probably the five millionth time this morning, letting Mum
answer the door. I heard a few muffled greetings being
exchanged and then Mum called out for me. She then made a quiet
comment which was followed by a laugh from the boys. I told
myself I didn’t want to know what she said. It was
probably a completely embarrassing comment specifically
designed to make me want to die on the spot.
I stepped out of the bathroom, walked into
the little corridor and then into the main living area. The
door of the hotel stood wide open and six pairs of eyes were
staring straight at me (the One Direction boys and my beaming
mother). “Hi!” I smiled, giving a little wave. I
wonder how much of an idiot I looked. “All ready to
go?” asked Liam.
“Just about!” Mum passed me my
handbag and practically shoved me out the door. “Have fun
baby, don’t be out too late!” I waved her away,
following the boys to the lift. Seriously Mum? We were going
for a WALK down the street at eleven in the morning. I
seriously doubt these boys intended on taking me nightclubbing
and stealing the innocence of their tour manager’s
daughter on only their second meeting. They’d probably
save that for a few weeks down the track.
