Part Twenty-Nine

Sophia’s POV

I woke up and held tightly to Niall, knowing he was awake. “I don’t want you to leave me,” I mumbled into his chest.

“Aw, I don’t want to leave you either, but we’ll be together again in three weeks,” He smiled.

“I know but it’s so far away, three whole weeks,” I sighed.

“We can tweet, call, text and any other way of communicating, I’ll even send a letter with a bird if I have to,” He smiled.

“I love you,” I smiled and kissed him.

“I love you too,” He whispered.

"Three weeks, we can do this,” I said determinly.

“We can,” He nodded.

“And you’ll be having so much fun the time will fly by. And I… well actually I have no idea what I’ll be doing… but I shall make it fun!” I smiled.

“Right let’s get ready,” He grinned and we climbed out of his warm bed. Once we were both ready and Niall had checked everything was packed we left his apartment to meet the others. We were going out for breakfast then to the airport where we would say our goodbyes, they’d fly off to the US and we’d stay in the glorious UK, with its brilliant weather. Note the sarcasm…

“Morning!” I smiled as I saw everyone.

“Morning,” They chorused.

“Can we go eat now?” Niall asked and we all laughed.

“Of course we can,” I kissed his cheek and we climbed into the car. We got to the café we were having breakfast at- I have no idea what it was called - and ordered our food and well… ate it, that’s the general idea of having food… to eat it…

I’m going to stop now.

So, yes, anyway, then we went to the airport. We went with them to the check-in, and to where they had to put their luggage, but we couldn’t go any further.

“Soph, remember what I promised you? That I wouldn’t look at any other girls whilst I’m there, I really mean it,” Niall turned to me, his arms wrapped tightly round my waist.

“I believe you Niall, but just so you know, if you do when I get there in three weeks I’ll kick her arse and yours,” I smirked, “So don’t even go there.”

“Yes ma’am,” He saluted, then sighed, “I’m going to miss you these three weeks.”

“I’m going to miss you too, but come on, it’ll be fine, we can do this… aw I just thought,” I sighed.

“What?” He frowned.

“We’re not going to be together for St Patrick’s Day,” I sighed.

“Aw, well I’ll call you in the morning and we can celebrate together,” He grinned and kissed me.

“I love you Niall,” I grinned back at him.

“I love you too Sophia,” He whispered and then kissed me. I swear anyone watching us would think the boys were leaving for three years not three weeks.

Lauren was crying and Harry was trying to calm her down with reassurances that he wouldn’t go off with any other girls, because he loved her and there was no girl he’d rather be with, because no one was prettier or had a better personality then her- his words not mine.

Beth and Louis were kissing and whispering sweet nothings to each other and I’m pretty sure he was telling her how much he loved her. I mean, who wouldn’t, she is really pretty and has an amazing personality- she’s a lot like Lauren personality wise, sometimes I think they could be twins separated at birth the way they are always so in sync with each other.

Molly and Liam were kissing and cuddling and whispering to each other about things I probably did not want to hear about; but you could see how much Liam loved her just by the way he looked at her, there was honestly so much love in his eyes when he looked at her it was just so cute- it was that moment when you realise how perfect they are for each other.

Mel and Zayn were practically sucking each other’s faces off, and you could see all of the little children hiding their faces so they didn’t have to watch; but they are seriously cute together.

“We have to go,” Liam spoke up.

We all kissed our boyfriends once more and then hugged the other lads before they waved and headed off in the direction of departures.

We walked back out of the airport and got into a taxi before heading home. The drive home was silent, no one said anything, no one needed to, we were all just thinking. Thinking about how much we were going to miss the boys, but about how proud of them we are and how great an opportunity this is for them; thinking about how we were going to see them again in three weeks, plus it would be my first time in the US; also I was thinking about what we could do for these three weeks, I only had a couple of modelling shoots to do and that was it. When we got home I paid the driver and we all went inside.

“So what do you want for lunch?” I asked.

“Can we just get some pizza, I can’t be bothered with anything else, and I don’t feel like cooking,” Lauren suggested.

“Sure,” I nodded and called up the pizza place and ordered our food.

“So what are we going to do these next few weeks?” Molly asked as we sat on the sofa’s after the pizza arrived.

“Well I thought we could take a trip to the seaside for a few days, we could borrow your Uncle's chalet in Cromer and spend the week there?” I suggested.

“Oh my gosh! Yes! I haven’t been to Cromer in ages, it’d be amazing! We have to do it!” Beth agreed.

“Okay, I’ll call my Uncle later and see if it’s free, and okay for us to go- it should be though. Then we could plan it for next week?” Molly smiled happily.

“Sounds good,” Mel nodded.

“Yeah,” I agreed.

“It’s a plan,” Lauren nodded.

“Cool, so you want to watch a movie tonight?” I asked.

“Yeah, we could go to the cinema,” Beth suggested.

“What to see?” Mel asked.

“Oh I want to see The Hunger Games,” Lauren shouted.

“Yeah, didn’t it come out today?” Molly grinned.

“Yes!” I shouted. We’d all read the books, they were so good.

The Hunger Games was a three book series which had been made into a film- going to be four films. It was about twelve districts that send a boy and a girl between the ages of twelve to eighteen, into ‘The Hunger Games’, it was an annual thing which happened each year because of a war that happened between the districts years ago. The boy and girl can either volunteer or get picked out of a bowl full of names of every contender in the district. Basically, the main girl in it is called Katniss and her younger sister, Prim, who’s twelve gets picked to be in the Hunger Games and Katniss volunteers to go into the games instead. In these games, you have to fight the other twenty three contenders to the death- the one remaining at the end wins.

We all agreed on watching The Hunger Games and once we ate the pizza’s we got changed and went to the cinema. We sat down in our screening, right at the back. I love the cinema. We grabbed a handful of popcorn each and began throwing them at people’s heads in front of us, they kept turning around and we’d all pretend to be having conversations with each other so they wouldn’t notice. We were there early so the film hadn’t started, in fact we were so early the trailers hadn’t even started and the screen was black. We continued to throw popcorn at each other and the people around us for a while before we got bored. We then all got some of the chocolate buttons Molly had brought with her and we were putting them on our eyes- like Molly and I did before; it had since become a cinema tradition.

When the movie started we all went silent and were immediately engrossed into the film.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

When the film had finished we were all hyped up. The film was amazing!

“Damn, that was so good,” Lauren grinned, dragging out the ‘o’.

“I know right! Totally amazing!” I agreed.

“I can’t believe you all cried!” Mel laughed.

“It was sad!” Molly said defensively.

Yes, at one point in the film, Lauren, Molly, Beth and I all cried- Beth making a half snort half squeak noise as she cried. Mel had started laughing at us crying, but it was really sad!

“You were all so funny,” Mel looked like she was going to die of laughter.

“It really isn’t that funny Mel,” We said seriously.

“Beth made that retarded noise again,” Mel laughed harder.

“It’s not something I can help!” Beth glared at Mel.

“Come on let’s go home,” I laughed and we walked outside and got in Mel’s car.

Surprisingly today hadn’t been half bad.
