"Zayn?" 

"Yeah, I guess that's his names." I answered, not really interested. The sight of someone eating a donut in my peripheral vision totally distracted me from answering questions. She snapped her fingers, trying to get my attention.

"What are you interested in, hobbies, sports, etc?" The interview rested her chin on her hand, her expression showing interest. I think she already pegged me for a more tomboy type.

"I play soccer, football, hockey, lacrosse, basically anything I possibly can. I like to hit things with sticks. Or with my feet."

"A boyfriend?" The girl looked like she was enjoying every moment of this. Especially since I assumed she had already answered that question herself.

"Me? Ha! Nope, I'm quite honestly just one of the boys." I answered with a laugh.

"Well, I guess that's all we need. I have to be honest, I think you're my favorite so far." The girl winked as the cameraman stopped rolling. Even he had a look of amusement clear on his face.

"Thanks?" I was unsure if that was a good or bad thing.

"Good-luck, hope you win!"

"NO! Don't say that, that's the exact opposite that I want. Please get me out of here." I practically begged, my eyes wide.

"You need to stay to keep me sane with all these prissy girls." She whispered as I started to head off. I muttered annoyed words under my breath as I tried to find out where that guy got a donut. I want a donut!

I glanced at my watch, realizing I had thirty minutes before the craziness that would arrive with One Direction. Not being able to find the donuts, I decided to brave the living room and amuse myself while watching the girls prepare for One Direction.

"Hey! Glad to see you survived the interviews!" Trinity declared the second I walked into the room. She grabbed my arm and led me to where the TNG's (The Nice Girl's) were sitting around. "So this is Ariana, Faith and Andie. I think we all need to stick together, considering it seems like we're the only normal ones here." She whispered the last part.

"I'm Al." I awkwardly raised my hand to wave at them. Ariana was a slim blonde, with bright green eyes. Faith had sleek black hair and gorgeous brown eyes. Andie had wavy red hair and piercing brown eyes, lighter than Faith's.

"Hey! So I'm guessing you're not into this thing that much." Andie laughed, eyeing my choice of clothes up and down. I let my eyes waver over to their choice of clothing. Andie was wearing jeans and a flowery top, Trinity was still wearing her sundress, Ariana was donning a blue skirt with a white tank top.  Faith was simply dressed in a black and white plaid shirt and jean shorts.

"My friend signed me up. Signed a contract too, I couldn't get out of it. So I'm here… and dude, I should have faked an accident, why did I not think about that sooner?" I quirked my eyebrows as I imagined all the bloody scenarios that could have gotten me out of this. Seriously, how did I not think about that? Dagnabbit, Al, you can be so dense at times.
