A/N: Enjoy the video on the side.  Supposedly it's of Louis Tomlinson screaming for water at a gas station.  It sounds like him, and it sure made my day, so whatevs.  Next time I'm thirsty, I'm just gonna scream, "WAAAATTTTEERR!"  It'll be perfect.

Recap:

"Oh dear..." The receptionist looked at me. "Well, I'll just sign you in anyway then.... We can put you in the marshmallow room until your parents send over your information..."

I sat up quickly. "The marshmallow room? What's that? I love marshmallows. They're just so squishy!"

"Oh yes, Brooklyn." And unfamiliar voice spoke. I looked up and saw a pretty woman, probably in her mid thirties, wearing a doctors coat and holding a clipboard. "I think you'll love the marshmallow room, in fact I think you'll love all the......treatments....we offer here."

"Who are you?" I whispered. She seemed kind of scary.

"I'm Dr. Martinez. I run this place."

"Great." I said sarcastically, getting off the floor.

"Don't worry Brooklyn." Dr. Martinez smiled creepily at me. "I know once you leave here, you'll be a changed girl."

"Good luck with that." I snorted, as I followed Dr. Martinez to the marshmallow room.

Chapter Five

Dr. Martinez led me into a long hallway. We walked down to the end of it, and she abruptly turned and began to walk down another long hallway. I was starting to think she was just trying to make me lose weight so I'd look even more appealing to One Direction.

Oh my gosh, One Direction! I can't believe I got to sit with Zayn Malik on a rollercoaster, have him act worried about me, get rescued from a vicious pack of sombrero-wearing strangers by the beautiful Harry Styles, and get to ride in One Direction's van with them - all in one day. This is like a directioner's dream. This must be a sign that we are meant to be. All of us. I'm destined to marry all five of those smexy boys. They're going to father my children. It's just so great!

"Brooklyn? Are you even listening to me?"

"What? Huh?" I looked up to see Dr. Martinez hovering over me, her tan arms crossed across her chest. Based on the irritated crease lines on her forehead and the hostile look in her eyes, she didn't look too pleased with me.

Dr. Martinez sighed. "We're here. The marshmallow room awaits you."

"Ooh, yay!" I cheered, clapping excitedly. "No one ever waits for me. This is an unexpected surprise."

"Just get inside," Dr. Martinez grumbled.

I frowned, my spirits crushed. Dr. Martinez unlocked the door and held it open for me. As I cautiously walked inside, I stared at Dr. Martinez suspiciously. For all I knew, she could be trying to lock me in here so she could have One Direction all to herself. Some people are just so greedy like that. You can never trust anyone these days . . . not even your pet goldfish. It's such a shame, really.

"Whoa . . . ." I whispered, my eyes wide open as I stared around the room.

The room was small, but that wasn't what amazed me. The whole room was white and the walls, ceiling, and floor were . . . padded! It was perfect.

I raced across the room and sprang through the air, like a cat pouncing on its prey. Only, I didn't land on a mouse or any precious animal. I crashed landed on soft padding. Instead of feeling pain shoot up my arm when I landed on it, I bounced a few inches back into the air.
