Truly, Madly, Deeply
Chapter Seven
Back to Alexandra’s POV
I cannot believe I saw him again. Niall Horan, I should have known I would though. My Uncle is basically their boss. He looked so good; you could tell he has been working out.
“Alex, did you meet them before?” Riley asked, she was squeezing my arm so tightly it was turning red.
I swallowed the non-existent spit in my mouth, as it went dry when One Direction stepped in the room.
“Yeah” I said weakly, “Yeah I have, at the airport the first day”. Riley’s eyes went wide and she nodded.
‘What the hell was happening with her?’ I thought.
It has been two hours since the meeting started Riley and I were starting to get implacably bored. “Can we go do something? We are in London for god sake!” Riley whined.
I got up, and went to the door of Simon’s office. “What are you doing?” Riley asked.
“I was going to tell him we’re going out to explore and whatever.” I said
Riley shook her head, got up and walked around to find some paper and a pen. ‘Uncle Simon, we went out here’s Alex’s number: 57254322465’ she wrote on it.
Then we left, outside the air was cold and a fresh feel to our faces. I pulled my cardigan around me to try and get a little warmer, but that did not help. As we walked through the cold London streets, Riley and I went sight-seeing. We got on a tour trolley and saw Big Ben, the London Eye, Buckingham Palace and more. We got off at Trafalgar Square and started walking around there.
My stomach rumbled and that was when I realised I was hungry, “Did Uncle Simon give you any money to buy food?” I asked Riley, she just shook her head ‘no’, “I'm starving too though”. My phone rang blasting the Mario theme song,
“Hello?” I asked wondering who it would be
“Alex! I've been calling forever! Where are you two?” Simon exclaimed. I looked at Riley and mouthed ‘We’re at Trafalgar Square, right?’ She nodded.
“We’re in Trafalgar Square, where are you?” I started pacing, a habit I got into when I talked on the phone to Stephanie.
“We were looking for you.” Simon said, ‘we, who was this we’ I thought.
“Just meet us at the Square and then we’ll all get lunch” I suggested.

Riley and I waited for what seemed like forever, for our uncle. He finally got there big smile on his face, "I'm surprised you didn't ask who else was helping me look for you two.”
I shrugged, knowing who they were already. One Direction, exited Simon’s car, looking dashing; Niall got out of the car and his eyes went straight for me. He walked over, trying not to seem too happy, but I could tell.
“Hey Alex, right?” He asked fully knowing that it was my name already. I nodded and smiled. “Can we go eat please, I'm literally starving.” I almost whined.
Simon, said he would take us to the posh-est restaurant he knew.
