Its Gotta Be You

Ally's P.O.V

“Yeah, um hello, I'd like a small tater tot thing, and a bacon egg and cheese, and a medium apple juice,” I speak awkwardly into the machine. On the way to the hotel my stomach had growled so loud that it had even brought Zooey out of her dreamlike daze. So we ended up just going through the McDonald's drive through.

Zooey leaned over me almost knocking into the steering wheel and popped her head out of the window. She then screamed into the box, “Yeah, um I'd like, um a medium tot and a medium orange juice. Yeah, thanks.” The guy, or that is what it sounded like, told us the price and to pull up to the second window. We then continued to do so and pulled up to the window, pay, and take our food. Zooey grabs her orange juice and the whole bag then starts to devour her tots. This is just about the most I've seen her do since I told her the news. The whole entire car ride here she was just staring out into space with a creepy smile on and at times whispering, “Oh god.” I was really creeped out to say the least.

“Hey, hand me my juice at least you wild beast?” I sneer at her. She looks up at me as she is shoving about five tater tots into her mouth and gives a small giggle. That caused some potato to fly out of her mouth and falling onto her pants. “Attractive babe,” I tell her. She just looks at me and shoves my juice into my face almost spilling it on me because I hit a speed bump at that moment. Apple juice is seriously my favourite drink ever and it's one of the few things that I actually drink.

“So what are we doing anyway....like with them? Can you just explain it to me please because otherwise I might go into shock when we meet them,” Zooey tells me. She interrupted my glorious moment with my apple juice and I was just about to start eating my bacon egg and cheese sandwich but I guess she has a point. She was totally freaked when I just told her about this what about when we actually get there.

“Okay fine. So you know how the other night I went to that concert with Rachel? Well I accidentally walked into the mens room.”

“Totally you, but go on please?” She smiled at me.

I took in a breath of air and sighed at her but continued, “Well that curly haired one, Harry he knocked the door into my head really hard and I passed out. I guess he put me into their dressing room and I was totally freaked out at first. I thought he was like some worker there and that something bad was going to happen. I searched everywhere for my phone and purse but couldn't find it so I just waited. Also because I still couldn't stand properly but I ate most of their food.”

“Once again, totally you,” She said slyly.

“Oh shut up, you eat more than me Zo. Anyway they came back and were totally freaked out by me until Harry told them what happened and they weren't too surprised which made the whole situation seem normal. Harry and that one boy, what's his name? Lewis.”

“Louis.”

“Oh, Louis and Harry went to get Rachel and I waited. When she came back she went over spazz control and ended up hitting me in the head. So I passed out again and somewhere within that time I lost my phone, which they have and say I can't have unless I spend the day with them. So naturally I thought that bringing the beautiful Zooey along would brighten up this day and they can all go after you while I get my phone. Then we can run and forget all about them. Deal?”

Zooey looked at me in shock and I was afraid my retelling of the other day was too much for her and put her into another mini mental state but instead a fire started to build in her eyes. “Allison Paige Ryder, One Direction has invited you to spend a day with them! The gorgeous, beautiful, perfect, angelic, and hilarious One Direction. Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Niall Horan, and Harry Styles actually are wanting to hang out with you. Someone who only wants to get their phone then leave. I am disappoint Ally. Disappoint. Now I don't care if I have to chain you to one of them or tell them you have a crush on one of them, I'll do it don't doubt me. I will make you stay!” She takes in a big breath at the end and slams her back against the car seat. I stare at the road in shock and glance over to her silently. She is actually breathing heavy and looks really angry. I'm scared, I've never seen Zooey this angry like ever. Not even when we were little and would fight with each other or when her parents and I prank her. Never.

“Um, ah, uh, okay,” Are the only words that escape my mouth in this fear. A small smile plays on her lips and all I can think of is that I am in the car with a crazy girl.

Zooey's P.O.V

I breath heavily to try to gain the air I had pushed out to yell at Ally. She really is dense sometimes, I mean a world famous boy band wants to actually hang out with her; Ally Ryder the girl who likes to spend her time on the internet and read for fun. The girl who has never even once gone on a date because every guy that has ever asked her out has in some way or form been turned down because she was too dense to see that he was actually asking her on a date. She is so dense.

Most of the times I don't understand how we found an equal balance between each other to be friends. She's safe, calm, and easy going while I on the other hand can be an emotional roller coaster and go from zero to sixty in a second. I'm always the on to go to parties and get wasted usually making out with some stranger who won't even know my name by the end of the night. While she's the one to scrape me off the toilet where I just puked my guts into and take me to waffle house or ihop to try and regain some type of appetite. She has always been like a mother to me, always giving me food, comforting me, teasing me. I think that's why she gets along so well with my parents because she practically is one. She has me and her sister to always look after and scold. Something which my parents, the hippy loving losers they are never believed in. They thought that I should find my own limits and experiment in anything that I wanted to. Most of which I never took advantage in, just a few beers and maybe some weed once or twice.

I sigh inwardly and look over at miss goody two shoes her self. I love her to death, I really do, but she needs to loosen up once in a while. It'd be really good for her to throw back a shot or something that can just take all the stress of caring for me off her shoulders. Maybe she'd finally notice that people like her and desire her unlike what she thinks in that dense head of hers. She's gorgeous really. Brown hair with caramel highlights that come down a little below her chest which naturally is extremely wavy and beautiful. Then those eyes of hers, they can kill someone if she gave them the right look. Big, bright, and beautiful. Eyes that you'd usually expect in a painting telling the story of a young beautiful girl. Usually showing sadness behind them but if you look up close to it you can see the light in them, the happiness that is overflowing in their body. That's what she is. Someone who may look sad and unhappy at first glance because she is always scolding people or telling them what's wrong and right but if you get to know her and she finds you worthy of showing you her real side, then she is a beautiful person. Someone who without the help of alcohol or drugs can make you laugh for hours and give you the biggest smile on your face. Even still there is that protective wall that is always up no matter who she is with. I've had this talk with her mother one day while she was getting ready or doing chores or something. Both of us still haven't been able to see the real Allison Paige Ryder. I think that she is just looking for the right person to share that with because she is so guarded. I really just hope that person will come by soon because I want to see it also.
