From One Extreme To The Other

Chapter 1: Tickets For 2

"They're up!" Laura and Fran shouted simultaneously as they ran up from the living room sofa and up to the desk where the Ticketmaster page was already loaded onto the screen of the computer. Francesca took hold of the mouse and refreshed the page. "Come on, come on!" she said wishing the page would load faster. "There oh my god!" Laura screamed while holding out her finger, pointing to the tickets. Francesca rapidly clicked on it and began to click her fingers as if it would force it to load faster. "Okay... quantity... two," Francesca said under her breathe, putting all her focus into getting these tickets. "Oh my fucking god! I can't watch!" Laura said nervously as she turned around and began pacing around the room. "And," Francesca said, dragging out every letter, "we've got them!" she continued to say, making the last part more energetic than the first. "Don't! Have we actually?" Laura said excitedly yet twiddling her thumbs due to the nerves. "Yep! One Direction,28th of July 2019, seats 32B and 33B," Fran replied while doing a little dance to display her excitement. Laura's jaw dropped as she froze. Once she began to move again she ran and threw herself at Fran. They stood there, crying with pure joy. They were going to see their idols live! And even better, they were doing it together. "I have to call my parents!" Fran said excitedly as she grabbed her phone off of the sofa and pulled up her contacts. "Yes do it!" Laura said, matching Fran's exact excitement level. "I'm going to go and tell mine!" Laura said while running out of the living room and into the kitchen to tell her family.

Fran had been staying with Laura for a while, for the pure reason of she enjoyed Hull much more than Stoke and Laura's family was like Fran's second. Even though they only met 3 years ago, it's as if they have known each other their entire lives and had weirdly been living the same one.

"Oh my goodness!" Laura's mum called, "Fran get in here!" she continued to say. Fran put her phone in the back pocket of her blue mom jeans and ran into the kitchen where Laura and her mum were stood jumping on the spot.

2 hours later. "So," Laura's mum said while bringing plates to the kitchen table, "Laura and Fran are you going to share the news with the family?" she said, placing the plates in front of the girls. "Mmm, yes!" Laura said while swallowing her mouthful of diet coke and placing the cup back on the wooden table. "Me and Fran managed to get tickets to the boys new tour dates!" She announced to the rest of the family. Jack, Laura's brother, rolled his eyes. "That's the big news?" He said in an underwhelmed tone. "What do you mean?" Fran and Laura said at the same time,both ready to defend themselves, each other and the 1D boys. " All I'm saying is that it's not that amazing," Jack said again, while stabbing some chips onto his fork and taking them towards his mouth. "Listen here matey," Laura said, " It is massive news because those tickets are now completely sold out and not old did we manage to get 2, but we also have barricade!" She continued to say,using hand movements and sass in her voice. "Yeah, and it's the first concert we are going to together, not to mention the fact that it is the world's greatest band One Direction!" Fran said confidently. Jack held his hands up to show that he surrendered the discussion because he knew he would loose against the girls.

Jack and all Laura's other siblings were like Fran's siblings too, they got a long like siblings, laughed at each other like siblings and even argued like siblings, they're all just so close.
