Niall laughs and shakes her hand delicately. Anna feels her hart-, hart soaring and it takes every ounce of strength in her to keep from screaming. "Well, Anna, I'm sorry, again, for running into you. Mind if the lads and I make it up to your friends?" he asks with his god-like Irish accent.
Anna turns to the others, who are acting quiet, but nod to her. She turns back to Niall with a big smile. "I guess it's unanimous. We'd love to hang out."
"Good. Because I'm starving!" he announces, making everyone laugh. "Well why hide the truth?" he asks as innocently as possible.
They walk down the street, Paul hanging around too, to a restaurant. Lucky for them, it's a pizzeria. But, it's inside a bowling alley. Even meer of a score! They agree to play a few rounds, just to get to know each other.
When they get their food, the girls aren't picky. Unlike most girls on a 'first date,' they toon the guys how they'd normally eat, instead of making it seem like they starve themselves. Which the guys seem to appreciate, rather than trying to impress them.
"How about we pair up into teams of two?" Louis suggests after they're done eating. "One girl, one guy. Fairest way," he points out, grabbing a bowling ball.
Nikki grabs one for herself. "Oh I get it, girls. They just don't want to get crushed," she says with a teasing grin towards the guys.
Anya bumps her fist against Nikki's. "Ooh! Burn!" she exclaims, coming out of her shell a little. She puts her hands back in her pockets, as if remembering to be shy again. "Well, like Niall zei before, Why hide the truth?"
Everyone laughs and they spleet, split into five teams of two. Of course, it's who u think would get together. Niall and Anna, Louis and Julia, Zayn and Nikki, Liam and Gina, and Harry and Anya. They all discuss strategy a little before starting the game.
When they all get back together, each girl is a little red, blushing from being alone with the lads. They agree who will go when and start the game.
Anya agrees to start off the game. She steps up to the lane and gets her schommel, swing ready, when Gina's voice is heard. "Harry, stop staring at her butt!" she teases. Anya stands up straight, embarrassed and turns around. Harry's trying not to smile and covers his face in his hands. Everyone can see his cheeks burning red when he takes them away. She giggles a little and swings, knocking down seven pins. But she picks it up, getting a spare.
Anna gives her a high five as they walk passed each other. Anna narrows her eyes and rolls the ball down the lane, catching a strike. The girls give her a high five, as they'd normally do. She sits back down volgende to Niall as he praises her.
They knew Nikki meant business when she tilted her hat meer to the left, giving her a koeler, koelwagen look. Her vrienden knew she wanted to impress Zayn, and was going to. She had such a serious face on, and when she swung, u could see the muscle in her arm. She knocked down nine, and hit the last one in the seconde throw. She smirked proudly as she was congratulated.
Gina wasn't as good as the other girls, but still walked up proudly. She pursed her lips as she did the math in her head, getting in the right angle, and finally let her breath out silently. She swung her arm back and gently let go, giving it an effect where it made everyone sit up in suspense. She knocked down half, and the other half was down the volgende time.
"Well I think Nikki was right. The girls are good," Louis jokes before patting Julia's back as if to tell her she's up. "I think we're better though," he says with a grin.
Anna laughs. "Yeah sure. We come here every other week. We even competed and lost to professionals. Not to brag of anything," she adds.
The lads start laughing. Everyone's attention is brought back onto Julia. She doesn't even think about it. She pulls her arm back and rolls it. She sits back down before it even hits the pins, but it knocks down every one.
As the night goes on, the awkward moments ease away. They really weren't special guys. They were just average people, but with SO much meer talent (and good looks ;D)
Unfortunately, the night had to come to an end. The guys had to leave and the girls had a curfew to make. They gave the lads their numbers and zei their farewells as they walk out of the bowling alley. Gina's the last to go, as she decided to be rebellious and steal a kiss from Liam.
"Alright, spill. How was it?" Julia asks while they walk. They'd all seen it, as well as the other guys had too. She knew she just had to tease Gina, since they taunted each other about everything.
Gina shrugs, but a blush starts to form on her cheeks. "That's for me to know and for u to never find out," she states quietly. She'd always try and outwit the girls.
Nikki laughs. "Oh how sweet. Well at least u showed him in the beginning how outgoing u are."
They talk about how their night went and how freaked out they were during the walk to Anna's house. They were having a sleepover party there, as they normally have. On the weekend, they'd spend all three nights over one girls house, and tonights night was Anna's.
While they get ready for bed, they giggle and scream a little, finally realizing they just spent the entire night with One Direction. And the fact the guys were interested in them, of at least seemed like they were. They eventually get the guts to text the guys, thanking them for the wonderful evening, while putting the blankets out for the night.
They were barely watching the horror movie on the screen, even Nikki and Anna, who adored the gore. They were too busy fangirling and texting the boys.
"So while I was bowling, did Harry seriously stare at me?" Anya asks, grinning and blushing.
The girls nod in sync. "Definitely. I had to hit him a few times to stop him," Nikki says with a proud smile. "Sure it was odd at first, to tap THE Harry Styles, but after a while it was just to keep him in check." She turns to the others. "I don't know about u guys, but I think they're really cool guys. Like, they aren't as.. What's the word... Like stuck up as we thought they were."
Julia nods in agreement as she sips her smoothie. "Yeah. I thought they were going to be kinda full of themseles, u know? Not really full of themselves... But kinda like we'd be the odd ones, and it's like they'd have to be sympathetic to our awkwardness. But they're just like any guy."
"Right. Like u could go to school with them. I mean, not really since everyone would die of their hottness but u know," Anna says with a giggle.
The others laugh. "I wouldn't mind. It's the best way to die, isn't it?" Gina asks with a wink.
Anya throws some popcorn at her. "No, obviously not." Her vrienden turn to her, shocked. "No, the best way to die is when you're like 70, and MARRIED to them. I don't want to die just looking at them. I want to die loving them," she says with a smile. She was obviously the poet of the group.
"Awwe!" They all say in unison, making her blush. Suddenly, a few of their phones go off at the same time. Anya, Anna, Julia, and Gina got a text from the guys. It reads: Too cute. Nikki butt dialed Zayn, and we kinda heard all of that. Haha it's adorable x
Everyone stares at Nikki, wide eyed. "Dude! Check your phone volgende time!" they scold her, and start throwing popcorn at her.
She laughs. "Hey it's not my fault my butt felt like talking to Zayn! Stop blaming me. u guys do it all the time," she says with a shrug.
"Dimples, you're still on the phone with him! Hang up!" her vrienden urgently tell her, trying to avoid any other embarrassment.
They hear all the guys burting out into laughter. Nikki quickly grabs her phone, fumbles with it, and ends the call. She whips her head up at them. "Oh god... I am such and idiot..." she mutters before slapping her forehead with her hand. The others laugh as her cheeks burn. Dreading thoughts creep into her mind, wondering if she blew it.
Kiss Me
