Missing In Action 4

The next morning I was woken up by some one lightly shaking me.

I opened my eyes.

"Hey." Eleanor smiled softly.

"Hey." I said tiredly. I sat up laying against the head board.

Eleanor looked at the jacket in my hands. I looked down.

"Yeah you see-" I started.

Eleanor cut me off. "I know..." She nodded, understanding what I was feeling.

We stood silent.

"So Ness is cooking breakfast..." Eleanor said.

"Ness is cooking?" I chuckled.

"Yeah..." She laughed.

"Someone's watching her right?" I laughed.

"Defiantly. Danielle's keeping a close eye on her so she won't burn her hands off with the stove." Eleanor laughed.

She stood up.

"Chop chop. Come on get dressed. Foods almost done." She said. Going into my closet and taking out clothes.

"Woah." I said stopping her.

"What?" She asked.

"If I let you dress me, I'll end up in skinny jeans." I chuckled.

"And?.." She said.

"I am pregnant. I'm not dressing up for anyone." I laughed.

"Very true. Very true." She chuckled.

She walked to the door.

"See you down stairs." She said walking out.

I looked through my closet. I put on yoga shorts and a sweatshirt. I put my hair in a high bun. I brushed my teeth and makeup was not an option for today.

I walked down stairs. The girls were eating at the kitchen table.

"Hey girls." I smiled.

"Hey." They said in unison.

"Rough weather last night." Ness mentioned.

"Yeah... It was really m-" I was cut off by a knock at the door.

We all froze in our tracks. We looked at each other. I felt as if my body went cold. There was another knock.

Danielle stood up.

"Danielle no please." Ness voice cracked.

"It's okay." She whispered.

I stood up and put my arm around Ness's shoulder. She immediately hugged me. Sky and Eleanor stood up as Danielle walked closer to the door. The knocks kept going. Danielle stood in front of the door, frozen.

"Danielle..." I said.

She looked at me.

"Open it." I said quietly.

She looked at the door again. She put her hand on the door knob. She took a breath. We all did. She opened the door. A man in a uniform stood there.

"I'm looking for Danielle, Perrie, Eleanor, Sky, and Ness..." The man said.

"T-that's us." Eleanor said.

"I-Is there....anything wrong?" Danielle asked.

"No miss, not at all." He answered.

We all sighed in relief.

"But I do have news...." He said.

"May I come in?" He asked.

"Of course." Danielle said opening the door wider and moving out of the way.

The man stepped in.

"Please...Sit" Danielle said leading him to the couch.

"Would you like anything to drink?" I asked.

"No thank you." He said.

We sat on the couch.

"Parliament has passed a law saying that the women should take part in this war by serving as Nurses..." He paused.

"Nurses?" Sky asked.

"Yes... There are to many soldiers being wounded in this war, so we need all the help we can get. You ladies will be training here in London. Soldiers will be sent from North Korea here to London to be cared for. Your job is to nurse them back to health." The man said.

"When do we start?" Sky asked eager.

"You ladies start tomorrow at noon. Here's the address to the training facility." He said handing Danielle a envelope.

"Thank you sir." Danielle said.

The man stood up. We all did the same.

"Let me walk you to the door." Danielle said.

Danielle opened the door for him.

"Thank you miss. You ladies have a nice night." He said putting his hat on. He walked out. Danielle shut the door.

She looked at the envelope.

"I don't know about you guys, but I feel better now that were helping with the war." I said.

"I agree." The girls said in unison.

I can finally not feel helpless. It would probably get my mind off of worry about Zayn. I can't change the war, but I sure as hell can make a difference.
