Another World: A One Direction FanFic (Under major reconstruction)

Chapter Three: Kids in America

I sighed and lay back down.

I have to remember my own problems, I always focus on others and get sidetracked. Maybe I should make my feeelings known to Liam, but I'm not sure, I mean, what if he didn't like me back? What if it ruined our tiny friendship?

I really didn't think I could afford to do that, and if I didn't want to ruin something like this, then I'd have to keep my mouth shut. I looked over at the two girls laying beside me and sighed as I lowered myself back down.

I decided, I couldn't tell him. Even if it meant being murdered by my two best friends.

Liam POV

I followed the other two guys who I hadn't had the pleasure of meeting yet. One was Caleb who had gotten a look that could kill from Anna, and the other Jay, who I swear was secretly googling Jenny. I rushed into the water and followed in after them. They both appeared out of nowhere and dunked me under the water. I let out a startled cry as I felt the water envelope over my head, which caused them to bark in laughter as I resurfaced.

"Hey, man. I'm Caleb, this is Jay." He said, and stuck out his hand. I eyed the two for a quick second. Caleb had short light brown hair with green eyes, he was pretty built, but was a bit shorter than me. Jay was in fact the same height as Caleb except her had the surfer look, with tousled long dirty blonde locks, light blue eyes and tanned skin.

I gripped my hand into his and he shook it roughly, as if trying to look manly. Jay did the same.

"So, why is there so much tension between you and Anna?" I asked Caleb after the quick introductions. He blushed a bit and rubbed the back of his neck as he looked furiously at Jay who was laughing all of a sudden.

"What?"

Jay stopped laughing and looked at me a bit seriously. "Okay, so we were at this party. I mean, well me, Caleb, Saige, Anna, Jenny and Dylan were, you know, since Summer hates them. Anyway, so Grace, the hot cheerleader chick who may or may not have tried to screw you in the hallways at school, threw herself at Caleb and started making out with him. You should know that Anna and him had hooked up three nights before and decided on a steady relationship. Anna caught them just as he was pushing Grace away and he tried apologising, but she wouldn't have it."

He took a breath and Caleb stayed quiet, staring at the water as if it was the most interesting thing in the world.

"Imagine how Anna must've felt. She's been in love with this boy since freshman, now we're seniors and they finally decided to announce their feelings for one another during a drunken night. They confess again the next day, have a relationship, then the whore decides to throw her at him. Anna was ripped apart and ever since then, she either doesn't acknowledging him or bites his head off. She always goes instant bitch mode."

I got that, that must've been the end of the story considering the thick silence hanging in the air.

"Wow, Caleb, I don't know what to say. I feel for you, man." I said, giving him a clap on the back. He nodded and turned his eyes back to the girls. They were all still tanning on their towels, so we decided to head back to them and do the same.

Just as I walked up to my back and was getting my towel out and ready to lay next to Summer, my phone chimed. The sound of Michael Buble's 'Just haven't met you yet' blared out my cell phone and I checked the caller I.D as I sat down.

Paul.

"Hello?"

"Liam, I know you want your school experience and such, but I'm going to need you back here in about two weeks to record this song. You have to be here, it'll be your first song out and we need to get it out now while your name is still big from the Xfactor." He explained as I started talking.

"But Paul, I can't." I said quietly, trying not too be too loud that the others would here.

"The boys are here. They'll want to talk to you." He said just as I heard someone grab the phone.

"I called it first!" I heard someone yell, I guessed it to be Louis. And I was right, just as his voice filled the receiver.

"Liam! How's it going over there in that big ol' continent without us?" He asked with slight humour. I rolled my eyes, but answered.

"Good, Louis, school's great too. You guys should've come." I said, not tryingt o make them feel guilty, but it wouldn've been nice to have some familiar faces around.

"Nah. You know I couldn't have anyway, I'm too old. You youngsters always partying and what not. Back in my day our parties involved pinata's and pin the tail on the donkey."

I couldn't help but burst out laughing. He was always saying things like this. Just because he's two years older than us.

"Right Louis." I said, chuckling.

"Look, Liam, I gotta hand over the phone. I think the other's are going to murder me on the spot." He said, with a faux tremble in his voice. "Okay, I guess I'll see you in two weeks." He announced.

"Wait, Lou-" But I was cut off by another voice.

"Okay, sorry, the other's want to talk to you but I'm getting them to practise the new song now. I want you to do the same, 'kay?" I sighed as Paul explained what was going on. "We need you here, Liam. Can I count on you?" He asked, sincerity evident in his voice.

"Yeah, sure. I'll see you in two weeks, bye Paul."

I had two weeks to practise for the recording.

Two weeks...

Why did that sound familiar-

It was the same week as Summer's concert.

Shoot.

I was going to miss out on Summer's concert.
