Then I met you
04. Hollywood
*Lexy's POV*
The next day I get a text from an unknown number.
"I don't know how to start this text but here goes:
Hey Lexy it's Niall. I was wondering if you and your friend Emmy would like to meet me and my mates tonight? We can cook and eat together, talk and get to know each other better.
-Niall" "Emmy." I call her over to my room.
"What? I'm making brunch." She says smiling.
"Look!" I exclaim happily.
"Looks like hottie wants to meet up." She says smiling.
"Should we?" I ask.
"Well... Duh! Can I now finish making brunch?" She asks.
"Yeah." I say and write him a response.
"Hey Niall, we'd love to. Just tell us where and when.
-The ass saver ;) "
I save his contact name as 'Hottie' and go sit in the kitchen with Emmy and singing along with the songs this band we discovered made, One Direction. The song Midnight Memories starts and we keep singing until I got a text message.
" 1933 Bell Avenue, Hollywood. Five ish?
-Niall"
"Emmy he said five ish and he lives in the Hollywood area!" I say and text him back.
"Sounds great, we'll be there five ish.
-Lexy"
We spend the day cleaning our apartment until four. I took a shower since Emmy took one this morning. I stand in the shower for a while thinking about tonight.
We get ready and run to the car at half past four and run to the liquor store, we get a six pack of beer and a small bottle of white wine and a small bottle of red wine.
We navigate our way to the Hollywood area and before we know it we're there. Seven minutes past five, not bad.
Emmy knocks since I'm holding all the alcoholic beverages. A boy with brown eyes and brown hair opens the door and we quickly identify him as Liam Payne.
"Good afternoon ladies, I'm Liam." He says and smiles while letting us in.
"Hi, I'm Lexy and this is Emmy." I say since Emmy can't seem to get a word out.
I see a person looking at us from the kitchen. Long, curly, brown hair, it's most definitely Harry. He suddenly smiles and runs towards us.
"I'm Harry." He says waving.
"Emmy, Lexy." I say pointing at Emmy and then myself.
He grabs the beer, winks and runs back in the kitchen screaming "They brought booze, I love them!" and puts the beer in the fridge.
We just laugh and step out of the hall walking towards what I suppose is the living room.
"Hey." Niall says walking towards me.
"Hi. We brought wine and beer, I hope that's okay" I say as he takes the wines away.
"Of course that's okay." He says laughing and walks in the kitchen, putting them on the counter.
We sit on a sofa and start chatting.
"Dinner's almost ready." Niall announces and goes back in the kitchen finishing everything.
I follow him and see him putting dishes and silver wear on the table.
Some vegetables sit on the counter with a wooden cutting board and a vegetable knife.
I walk towards the cutting board and on instinct start cutting some tomatoes, a cucumber, a red paprika and a yellow paprika. I put them, among the lettuce in a bowl and look around. Looking for some nuts which I find in a matter of seconds.
I add them in the bowl and mix it all together.
"You know you didn't have to do that" Niall says smiling, looking at me work on the salad.
"I know but I can't do nothing. Besides my brain just went on autopilot and voila." I say laughing.
"Well it looks delicious." He says and grabs the meat while I walk to the table and put down the salad.
"Thank you." I say and go and tell they guys that dinner's ready.
Later that evening...
Liam and Harry do the dishes while the rest sits down chatting.
"So what do you do for a living Lexy?" Niall asks me.
I fumble a bit, I have such a boring job next to him.
"Well, I work in a bakery-café." I say looking down at my shoes
"That's why you know your way around the kitchen so well." He says laughing.
"Yeah, I guess." I shrug.
"Did I offend you?" He asks, looking genuinely concerned.
"No, it's just that my career is nothing compared to yours." I say, fumbling again.
"Oh..." He says looking unsure of what to say next.
