Chapter 19

Niall Horan/Mara Ingles/Abby Nichols/Zaylin Matthews

Niall's POV

I bounced on my tippy toes as I waited for the plane our girls (and guy) were on to land. I tried not to tremble with excitement. I finally got to meet her, Mara Ingles!

I glanced over at the others and they seemed pretty excited and/or nervous too. Zaylin was clutching Louis' and Harry's hands tightly, which Harry seemed pretty happy about. I smirked.

Zayn was watching intently for the plane too. Liam was scribbling in his notebook again. I wondered what was in there.

"There!" Zaylin screamed and pointed as a nearby plane slowly began to descend. "The 11:00am flight to England right on time!"

She jumped up and down in excitement, and Louis decided to join in. Zayn made them stop after a few passerby started to stare.

I almost squashed my face against the glass to get a closer peek. The plane landed.

We rushed over to the terminal area and waited for the three girls (and guy) to appear. I grinned. I couldn't wait to see Mara!

Mara's POV

I squealed every time the plane suffered turbulence, which fortunately wasn't often. More like I was suffering rather than the plane.

My hands clenched the armrests so tight my knuckles were white and my breathing was coming in short little spurts through my teeth.

My friends tried to get me to eat something, but every time I looked at a Dorito, I would unbuckle myself and rush off to the bathroom. I would retch but nothing would come out because of my empty stomach.

After twenty five lifetimes, the plane started to descend. I gasped and cracked open an eye then shut it again rapidly.

Beside me Abby yawned and stretched. "Rise and shine, little birdie," she told me. "We're here!"

I almost screamed in delight (I could finally get off this blasted plane) but it took fifteen minutes for the wheels to touch the ground.

"Welcome to England," Jasmine whispered in awe.

This time I unbuckled for good and hurried to grab my stuff, trembling the whole time. Abby helped me and soon I was running towards the exit of the plane, towards freedom....

I could hear Zach, Abby, and Jasmine racing after me and I called over my shoulder, "Come on slowpokes!"

I felt so giddy, so happy to be out of that plane and ready to meet Niall I wasn't registering where I was going.

I slammed into someone, and that someone grabbed me tightly. I screamed, terrified. I hate airports.

Abby's POV

I heard Mara scream in terror and I quickened my pace. She was in trouble!

"Mara!" I yelled. I saw her being held by someone I didn't recognize. Meaning it wasn't any of the boys or Zaylin.

"Hey!" I screeched and hurtled myself at him. "Get your dirty paws off my friend!"

He staggered as I hit him and held Mara close to me. She was shaking, but staring at the boy that had grabbed her.

"N-Niall?" she squeaked. I let her go.

"What?!" I shouted. "I just hit Niall Horan from One Direction?! Oh my--"

"It's fine," Niall chuckled as he jumped up. He grinned at Mara. "Hello there," he said, extending his hand.

She stared at him for a moment before shaking it weakly.
