Chapter Five.

I woke up when there was a bump on the flight; I had my head on Liam’s shoulder. We were landing, finally. I sat up and stretched making a baby dinosaur noise as I stretched out my arms.

‘That was a cute noise’ Liam laughed

‘Oh shush’ I smiled

We made our way out of the plane and as we got out of the tunnel we heard heaps of screaming girls. We waited for dad and then proceeded past the girls, the boys couldn’t stop but they gave the girls hi-5s while Dad and I was up the front leading the way.

Once we got past them all we had to run to the van, Liam grabbed my hand and pulled me along with him. Once we got in the van we were all puffing, I had come to America a while ago but I hadn’t actually left the LA airport and I had only been to Nashville.

‘Dad, doesn’t your brother live in Nashville still?’ I asked

‘He sure does, and your cousins. We are going to go visit them’ he smiled

I hadn’t seen them for about three-four years when I last came over here. My cousin Rebecca and I got along really well, Anna would be all grown up now and so would their newest member, Jacob.

I couldn’t wait to see them again.

We got to the hotel and there was about ten girls waiting outside. We went and talked to them for a while. While we were walking into the hotel Liam grabbed my hand and smiled.

‘Um, what’s going on here?’ Dad asked as he pointed to our hands

We both looked at each other and laughed as we hopped into the elevator.

‘Okay so the room arrangements are Harry and Louis’ Dad started explaining

‘Yes’ Harry and Louis cheered

‘The rest of you boys get your own room and Leyna and I will be staying together. I would let you stay with one of the boys but you would pick Liam and now that’s a big no-no’

‘But Paul’ we both whined

We stepped out of the elevator and started walking to our rooms.

‘Fine, but no funny business!’ Dad said seriously

‘Yay’ we cheered running into the room

The room was huge; the kitchen looked like the one at home. The bathroom was the size of the kitchen, a lounge room with a pull out couch and a plasma screen TV and then there were shutters which led to a bedroom with a huge bed, big enough to fit all seven of us.

I dumped my suitcases behind the couch and then jumped over and sat on the couch.

‘What a comfy bed this will be’ I smiled bouncing on it

‘That’s not your bed’ Liam said

‘Well I don’t see any other beds’

He pointed to the big one in the room and smiled.

‘We can both fit in that one silly, im not having you be uncomfortable in here’ he laughed

‘Does da-‘

‘Yes, he knows. Well he would have probably figured it out’ Liam laughed

There was a knock on the door so I went over to answer it. It was Dad.

‘Tell Liam to stand on the balcony, you as well’ he said then he walked off

I went back and told Liam and then we headed to the balcony. The view was amazing; you could see the Hollywood sign from it. All of a sudden we heard girls scream; I looked around and saw the other boys on their balcony’s too.

I pointed them out to Liam and he laughed and then we all saw each other.

‘I feel sorry for the other people in this building’ I laughed

The boys were waving to the girls and they were all taking pictures.

Once we went inside the boys and dad came to our room and we all sat down and had some food. Niall was the first to start eating, of course.

‘So Leyna, do you still play netball?’ dad asked me

I had been playing netball since I was five and I loved it, but mum made me quit.

‘No, mum made me quit’ I pouted

‘Well it’s your lucky day, you have a game tomorrow. While we are here in the US you will be touring playing. We all go to the same spots so it’s all goods.’ Dad smiled

‘Are you serious?’ I screeched

I always loved playing netball, I wanted to do it when I was older but mum pulled me out of it. She never told me why she just did, no explanation nothing.

‘your first game is tomorrow’ he smiled.
