*Harry’s POV*

“What the hell is going on?” I whispered to Louis. We were all in the building our manager told us to meet. He claimed it was urgent news. When we got there though, our manager was lying on the floor, blood seeping through his Calvin Klein Polo. We had enough sense to hear someone coming and ducked behind our manager’s desk, or what was his desk.

“I think we are face to face with London’s number one hitman,” Louis whispered back.

“We are going to die, we are going to die,” Niall whispered to himself over and over again.

“Pull yourself together mate,” Liam whispered to Niall.

“Who said that,” screamed a nasty voice, “I’ll find you, and when I do, you’ll end up like your precious manager.”

Shit. He knew it was us. Isn’t that just absolutely perfect. Luckily I remembered to bring my phone and was typing away to Phil, our head security guard. When I finally got a text back, it was too late.

“Found ya,” said the man. We turned around to see none other than London’s number one hit man.

“PUT YOUR HANDS UP!” screamed someone. Next thing we knew the man was jumping out the window.

“I’m gonna find ya boys,” he whispered right before he jumped, “And when I do, you’re gonna wish you were never born.”

He obviously knew that this was coming, that meant that our lives were in serious danger.

“You okay boys?” asked Phil.

“No,” we all chorused.

“I will have to take you to headquarters,” he said, “You could be the next victim, and I will not let that happen as long as I live.”

“Thanks,” I said.

It was a short ride to headquarters. We walked in to this big building and right away, we were getting whisked off into another room, a much more private room. A group of people were waiting for us.

“Boys, I would like you to meet Rick,” He pointed to the older looking man with glasses on.

“We have thoroughly discussed your predicament,” Rick spoke, “And we all have come to agree that you boys are no longer safe. I’m afraid to say that you are now going to be in the Witness Protection Program.”

“Wait, what? No! No, no, no. no, no,” said Liam, “I can’t leave behind everything, I can’t just leave my family, I can’t leave my friends! And Danielle. No, never.”

“I agree,” said Louis, “I have a life, I have a family, and I have a girlfriend who I cannot bare to leave.”

“Same with me minus the girlfriend,” I said.

“We will notify your family and friends immediately,” Rick started, “But in the meantime, you boys are not safe. You need to get out of England, as soon as possible. We have already notified a host family, and you will be getting on your flight right now. You are now officially, no longer, One Direction. My true apologies.”

And with that, he left the room along with everyone else.

“Sorry boys,” Phil said, “I guess this is goodbye.”

We all sat in silence until someone came in to collect us. We all got teary eyed. This means, everything I have become is gone. My parents can no longer see me. At least the boys and I would all be together.

What the hell am I going to do?

*Courtney’s POV*

“Hello Nancy,” I gave the blonde haired lady a hug.

“Hello sweetie,” she squeezed me, “Thanks for coming to the airport with us. I think the boys will enjoy the fact that you will be there to greet them.”

I was the only one who knew besides my parents, Tom, and Nancy that they were getting five boys from the Witness Protection Program, to stay at their house. My parents had to know because I would be spending my weekends over there until the boys finally felt okay. Secretly I was hoping that they would be cute. I hadn’t had a boyfriend for a couple of months. We were never that serious, only a group date here or there along with a kiss. Don’t get me wrong, he was great and all, just not really my type. Tom and Nancy told me that they would let the boys formally introduce their real selves. Apparently they were from England.

“Hey Tom,” I gave him a hug.

“Hi sweetheart,” he smiled, “How are you today?”

“I’m good,” I smiled back.

“Good,” he said, “Let’s get going.”

“Bye mom!“ I yelled down the long hallway, “Bye dad!”

With that we were off. We made it to the airport in about forty-five minutes.

“Let’s hurry!” said Nancy, “Their flight is landing!”

We all fast-walked into the building and through the corridor. I was so anxious. I have met tons of rotary students before, but no one from the Witness Protection Program.

“Their they are,” Tom said when we made it into the waiting room.

“Hello,” Nancy and Tom greeted them with hugs.

“Hey,” I said, as I hugged all of them. They looked really familiar but I can't remember how. Then again, I probably looked familiar too.

“Hello love,” said the one with brown curls.

“So how was the flight?” asked Nancy.

“It was good,” said the one with the blonde hair and a beany cap, I noticed that he had an Irish accent.

“Well let’s get going!” Tom said.

“Nancy?” I asked, “I just got my license, and I was kind of wondering, can I drive?”

“Well of course baby!” she handed me the keys.

“Yeah!” I exclaimed.

We made it to the car and I noticed a familiar pair of eyes. They were crystal blue. I quickly shook the thought and got into the driver’s seat. We got halfway to dinner in pure silence when I ran into a traffic jam. To lessen the tension, I turned on the radio.

“You’ve got that One Thing” I whisper sang.

“Do you like these guys?” asked the one with tan skin.

“Yeah, I guess,” I answered, “I mean I just think that it’s retarded that girls are ‘in love’ with them when they don’t really know them. But I guess that I have nothing against them, and they are talented and good looking. So yes, I guess I do like them. But I would appreciate if I didn't have to hear them everywhere I go.”

“Nancy?” asked the Irish boy, “Do you think we should tell her now?”

“Tell me what?” I asked.

“I guess you should now,” Nancy said.

“Courtney love,” asked the curly haired one, “Do you have your foot on the gas pedal?”

“Yes, why?”

“Could you take it off?”

“Sure,” I did as I was told.

“We are One Direction.”
