All I Want For Christmas Is You

Valerie was walking down the sidewalk closest to the wall of the hotel we were staying at. She glanced up at the sky while a raindrop touched the tip of her nose. She cringed and gazed around at all of the different people. Suddenly…
“I have GOT to find them!” Val said to herself as she bursted into a sprint down the concreted walk. She ran into a couple holding hands, an old man carrying a suitcase, a lady pushing a baby carriage, and at least three other people before stopping about one block down. She heavily breathed for a few moments before collapsing against the brick wall of a building. “I’m never going to find them,” Val said to herself as she sighed.
“Hello little girl. What’s your name?” Val heard a voice ask. She guessed it was towards her, but she didn’t look up at who was speaking. “Valerie,” Val said in a pouty tone. “Valerie, eh? My name is Louis,” said the voice, and Val looked up slowly and met eyes with the voice. He had bright blue eyes and a warm, inviting, smile. “Louis… Louis Tomlinson?” Val said, backing up against the wall, trying to stand up straight. Louis nodded. “You obviously know me? Probably from the cool band I’m in. It’s pretty popular, but you know, you just might know me from my spiffy commercial about a perfume,” he said laughing and tucking his hands into his trench coat. Val nodded, not smiling, and unsure what to say next. “So, where are you going?” he asked, bending down to her level. Val shrugged. “You look a lot like a girl I met, well… kind of met, in that hotel down the abbey a bit,” Louis said looking towards the direction of the hotel. “Was her name Cat?” Val asked. Louis looked at Val and giggled as he placed his hands on her shoulders. “Love, I didn’t actually meet her. We just spoke, and then left,” Val sighed in disappointment. “Oh, I guess she didn’t reco-nize you,” Val said, mispronouncing the words like she normally did. Louis stood back up and shrugged. There was a pause. “Louis, do you want to take me back to the hotel? I think my sister would love to meet you,” Val asked, grabbing Louis’ hand. Louis smiled and nodded as they walked back up the street, back to the hotel.
“Oh, and I was actually looking for you, and Harry and them all in One Direction, that’s why I left the hotel and I knew my sister would never let me go alone,” Val told Louis as they got to the front entrance of the hotel. “Really?” he asked a bit surprised. Val nodded and giggled.
