Chapter 2

As soon as we walked through the front door, I made my way to the backyard to call Eleanor. 

"Where are you going?" Louis asked.

"Private phone call." I answered quickly, before slipping out the back door. I walked to a large oak tree in the left corner of the yard. I dialled her number and after the 3rd ring, she answered. 

"Hey love!" Eleanor's sweet voice chirped through the phone. 

"Don't 'Hey Love' me! You forgot to mention, oh I don't know, maybe that the boys LIVE with you!" I yelled at her. 

"Sorry, I guess it just slipped my mind." she replied. 

"Slipped your mind?! How can you possibly forget to mention that?!" 

"Calm down. So what happened today?" she questioned. 

"Well, I was confronted by 5 pop stars. I now convinced them I lost my British accent. Apparently you don't eat, so when I kept complaining I was starving for junk food, they all stared at me like I had 3 heads. Then I cooked dinner, which you don't cook, so they were even more confused. Oh, and you forgot to mention Danielle too. So they all flipped about me forgetting Danielle and they rushed me to the doctor! I had to get blood taken, the doctor told me that I was Arielle not Eleanor. Yada, yada, yada. He promised not to tell anyone what's going on and convinced the boys I only have temporary amnesia and that's why I'm so forgetful." I explained. 

"Wow, rough day. I just hung out with your neighbor, Brad. He's hot!" she giggled. 

"I used to have the biggest crush on him, but I was too shy to talk to him. How the hell did you end up hanging out with him?" 

"I went to get Starbucks and I accidentally ran into him, and spilled my coffee all over his shirt." 

"Eleanor!" I squeaked. 

"Well then we got to talking and he offered to buy me another coffee, and I offered to buy him a new shirt. Ta-Da, you're now friends with your hot neighbor!" 

"El! We're watching a horror like you asked! C'mon!" Zayn called from the back door.

"Okay!" I called  back. "I gotta go, Eleanor. We're watching a movie." 

"Bye babe." 

I walked back into the house, which was now completely dark. 

"Who was on the phone?" Louis asked, popping out of the darkness. 

"Fuck Lou! Why the hell are you always scaring the shit out of me?" I screamed, holding a hand to my rapidly beating heart. 

"Guys, she cursed again!" Louis yelled. "Anyways, who was on the phone?"
