Teenage Kicks
First Impressions
Our plane landed safely in London.
Collecting all of our luggage was a pain, but all of it was safely delivered to us in the end. A black limo was already parked outside the airport, waiting for us. As soon as we walked out the main doors, we were overwhelmed by the screams and squeals of my fans. At least I still have a ton of fans in the UK!
It took forever to reach the limo, as I was busy signing autographs and chatting a little with my fans. When I finally got to my ride, the paparazzi showed up and ruined all the fun. Their questions were mainly consisted of 'Why are you in London' , or 'Why did you come here'. I didn't answer them as I sat down in the limo and slammed the door shut.
Stacy was talking on her cell phone as I dosed on the black leather seats of the fancy car. We had been driving for about 15 minutes now, and Stacy wouldn't tell me anything about where we were going.
"Ok, we'll be there." She said into the device before ending the call.
"Who was that?" I asked, curious.
"That was Simon." She replied. Stacy opened her mouth as if to say something else, but didn't. Instead, she leaned over to talk to the driver. I saw him nod, and Stacy sat back down in the same spot she was in before.
That's all I remembered as I fell asleep, sprawled out in an un-ladylike, yet comfortable position on the seat.
---------------------
I was awoken to the feeling of being pushed around, and when I opened my eyes, I saw Stacy pushing on my shoulder. "Wake up Rebekah!" She said. "We're here!"
I slowly sat up, rubbing my eyes. " 'Here' as in....?" I asked. "Simon's office!" She exclaimed, helping me onto my feet. "Ugh...Fix your hair please, Rebekah."
"I thought we were going to the hotel!?!?" I said, staring up at the huge building with the words SYCO on the front.
"Change of plans!" She explained, ushering me out the door.
Stacy literally had to push me into the elevator and hold me against the wall so that I wouldn't run out of the building. Honestly, I didn't know she was that strong. We reached the correct floor and quickly found Simon's office.
Stacy was nearly bouncing off the walls in excitement.
"I can't believe this is happening!" She whispered to me.
"I can't either..." I groaned. I'm pretty sure we weren't thinking the same thing, though.
Finally, she reached out and turned the knob, opening the door. Whoever was inside became quiet as Stacy stepped into the room, with me following her.
"Ah... Ms. Westfall!" I heard Simon say. He stood up to greet us. But my attention wasn't on him, It was on the other five occupied chairs in the room. Dang! They were even more beautiful in person. The boy with the gorgeous green eyes caught my attention, and I felt like I was melting, as me stared at each other. I saw him give me a small, welcoming smile. I quickly averted my gaze to see Simon holding his hand out to me. I shook hands with him.
"You must be Rebekah! It's a pleasure to meet you!" He said. I smiled a fake smile, hoping he would let go of my hand soon. He kept smiling, even when he released my hand. "Come meet the boys! You know, we were just talking about you!" Simon told me, motioning for the boys to stand. Soon, I found myself shaking hands with all of them. The first one caught my attention. He had a playful face that suggested that he was a prankster, and nice blue-green eyes that were a similar color to mine. "I'm Louis." He said. "Rebekah. It's nice to meet you." I returned. "Right back at you!" He said. I was starting to think this wasn't such a bad idea after all...
I shook hands with 3 more guys, whose names were Zayn, Niall, and Liam. A last hand shook mine, and I felt some sort of spark, almost like an electrical current where he touched me, run through my hand. It was pleasant and alien at the same time. "Hi. I'm Harry." I heard in a beautifully deep, British voice. I looked up and immediately got lost in those green eyes - again. I forced myself to look away, while reluctantly releasing his warm hand. "Nice to meet you." I said, while walking back over to Stacy and Simon. What in the world just happened???
"So Rebekah, tomorrow, we are going to start working on the lyrics for the duet, so be here bright and early tomorrow morning!" Simon advised. "I can meet you in the lobby."
"Alright." I said
"Well, we have got to head back out to our hotel." Stacy told them. "We'll see you all tomorrow!"
"We'll see you." Simon said.
We all said goodbye and goodnight to each other, and I walked out after Stacy, making sure not to make eye contact with Harry again.
