A/N I spent a little while writing this one because this was a little joke between my friends and I. We all think it would be hilarious, yet very embarrassing, if the lads showed up when we were talking about them, expressing our feelings about them, that kind of embarrassing stuff. Plus, of course Just Dance, our favorite video game, plays into it. So, here's that chapter for this! Enjoy!

--------------------

Lucy's POV

As I walked downstairs the next morning, all I could think about was last night. Was that meeting with One Direction real? Or was it a dream?

Now, don't get me wrong. I wasn't being a fan girl right then, I was just trying to figure this whole thing out. The girls would all say I was being a fan girl (they all say I do that over Niall) but I wasn't. I am going to say just one thing on that. I am not a fan girl.

Anyway, the last thing I remembered that night was seeing Simone and Ana sleeping under the stars, Harry just lying down next to them with his head resting on his arms. I knew they had already lost, because they weren't caring at all that Kyle was passing by with the flashlight beam.

I had decided to join them, and so did Niall. The two of us laid down in the little group as well, and I must have just fallen asleep. But what confuses me is how I fell asleep there, and woke up here, in my bedroom.

I pushed all those thoughts out of my head as I sat down next to Simone at the breakfast table. Simone's expression was thoughtful, like she had something on her mind. But, I chose not to ask about it, in case it was a touchy subject. It was just easier that way. I hate picking fights.

I said nothing as I took a spoonful of cereal, and neither did Simone. We ate our entire breakfast surrounded by an awkward silence, one that neither of us was all that willing to break.

When I finished, I was about to stand when Simone finally spoke up. "Lizzie called, by the way. She invited us over to play Just Dance 4 later."

"Lizzie called this early in the morning?" I asked with a small laugh.

Simone shrugged as she joined me in laughing. "I guess so. She woke up early for some reason. Guess she's still on school time then. So, are you going to go, or am I going alone?"

"I'll be there, okay? Don't leave without me," I told her before going back up to my room to change out of my pajamas.

I finally decided to wear a pair of jean shorts and my black One Direction t-shirt. I brushed my long blonde hair and put it in a braid before heading back down the stairs to find my little sister.

Simone was waiting at the door, leaning against it. She was in a pink One Direction t-shirt and shorts with a cute pink embroidered design. She had her pink flip flops slipped on her feet, and her toenails were painted pink. She had brushed down her short hair so it framed her face like it always did.

Noticing the t-shirt, I made the comment, "We must have had the same thought." I added a small laugh as I slipped my black flip flops onto my feet.

Simone shrugged. "I just had a dream about them last night, so I wanted to wear this. Simple enough, right?" She didn't add anything about the dream, but it surprised me a bit. She had a dream about 1D too?

"Did it happen at Kelly's bonfire?" I asked her curiously as I opened the door and stepped outside, followed by my sister.

She nodded. "Yeah, it did. This is kind of weird. Let's just get going," Simone told me. We both walked across the street to Lizzie's house.

---------------------

About two hours later, the six of us were in Lizzie's basement. Courtney, Ana, Lizzie, and I were dancing to Call Me Maybe on Just Dance 4. I was on the far end, closest to the carpeted stairs that led up to the main level and the poster wall that Lizzie made on the far wall (that's a long story). Kelly was drawing a picture of the four of us dancing, and Simone was observing her drawing, helping her with the little details that Kelly couldn't see.

"Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy," Ana was singing along as she danced, one of her many habits. It's funniest, however, when we're dancing to Good Feeling, because then she's rapping the whole time practically.

"But here's my number," I joined in her singing with a smile as I did the dance moves.

Together, the two of us sang the song as we danced. "So call me maybe!"

We continued to sing along as we danced until the song ended. By that time, Kelly had finished drawing her picture. It was really good, although I was looking at the picture upside down.

When the song ended, Lizzie flopped back on the couch, tired. "Ugh! That was so tiring. Can we please take a break?" She looked over at all of us, slightly panting as she slipped a t-shirt on over her red tank top. Not to my surprise, the shirt had a picture of none other than 1D on it.

Instead of answering her question, I asked, "Did all of us plan on wearing our One Direction t-shirts today?" Sure enough, everyone else was wearing their own 1D shirt.

Courtney shook her head. "Nobody planned it; I think we all just wanted to wear them for our own reasons. Like how I had a dream last night where they showed up at Kelly's bonfire during flashlight tag."

"I had the same dream," Ana exclaimed with a laugh. "Simone, you paired Harry and me up as a team during the game!"

Simone laughed. "I remember that! And I joined you and caused us all to get caught!"

As the girls began to compare scenes from the dream they thought they had, my gaze flickered towards the stairs. I thought I saw a shadow cover the light...then two, three, four, and then five shadows in total covered the lights.

I was a bit confused for a second, but then I saw the source of the five shadows. It was them. A smile formed on my lips as Niall, Liam, Zayn, Louis, and Harry came down the carpeted stairs quietly.

The carpet had muffled the sound of their arrival. I saw them and they saw me. Niall smiled, and Liam held a finger to his lips, as if to tell me not to say anything. I nodded with a smile.

Then Courtney snapped her fingers. "Hello! Earth to Lucy! Can you hear me?" She asked me, waving her hands, as well as obvious irritation in her voice.

"Oh! Yeah, I hear you," I responded.

"Then do you want to play or not?" Lizzie asked me curiously.

"Play what?"

The girls burst out laughing, and, with a quick glance towards the stairs, the five of them were laughing as well.

I rolled my eyes, and repeated, "Play what?"

Kelly finally answered the question. "We want to test our knowledge, again."

"Lizzie brought down her copy of Dare to Dream. She thought we could quiz each other on their Quickfires," Ana informed me.

"Oh, wow, you're going to quiz me on them?" I asked. They were, unknowingly, going to embarrass themselves in front of One Direction.

"I guess," Ana responded. "But I think you'll only be quizzed on Niall, because he's your favorite member."

I rolled my eyes. "You guys are just...wow..." I said with a laugh.

"So are you going to play or not?" Courtney asked me.

"Okay, okay, I'll play." I shrugged. It really wasn't worth fighting over. "But I refuse to answer one question." There was one question in that Quickfire that I was embarrassed to say that I knew the answer to.

"You're just embarrassed to say that you know what kind of underwear he wears," Simone told me with a laugh. The other girls started laughing again too.

My cheeks flushed red as I looked over beyond the wall to the guys. All five of them were struggling not to laugh.

"Not her fault that she has a good memory," Kelly defended me with a shrug.

I won't answer that question. Let's just start, okay?" I asked, sneaking glances at the guys again. They were all covering their mouths to muffle their laughter, except for Niall.

Niall mouthed to me silently, "You actually know that?"

I blushed brighter and shrugged. "I have a good memory," I responded.

"Who are you talking to?" Simone asked me.

Shoot. "I wasn't talking to anyone. I was just talking to myself, Simone."

"Okay then. Kelly, let's see." Lizzie passed my sister the book, and she flipped through the pages of Dare to Dream. She finally landed on Zayn's Quickfire. "What's Zayn's favorite computer game?" She asked Kelly.

"He wrote Halo in the book, so Halo," Kelly answered. Checking the book, Simone nodded. She had gotten it right. "Okay, my turn. Courtney, what's Liam's first pet?"

I stole quick glances at the lads to see what they thought of this. They all were smiling widely.

Courtney then gave her answer. "His first pet was a terrapin called Frederick." Kelly nodded with a smile. "Ana, what's Harry's favorite drink?"

Ana laughed a bit. Then she smiled at all of us. "Easy. He loves apple juice, and so do I. But he's been trying to just drink water." She smiled, not needing her answer to be checked. We all knew that was right. Ana reminded us of that all the time. "Lizzie, what's Louis's favorite band?"

"The Fray," Lizzie answered plainly. Ana checked the answer and then nodded. Lizzie then turned to me. "Lucy, what's Niall's favorite restaurant?"

I laughed a bit. This was the easiest question ever. "Seriously, that's your question, Lizzie? That's simple. It's-."

I was interrupted by Niall, who cried out, "NANDO'S!"

I looked over towards the five of them, who were slowly moving towards the entrance to the room.

Then, I turned my gaze to the girls, who had gone silent out of shock. They hadn't been expecting that, obviously, and I hadn't been expecting Niall to answer the question instead of me.

"Was that...Niall?" Courtney asked me curiously.

I didn't say anything. Their arrival explained it all anyway.

Niall entered the room first, grinning from ear to ear. He was followed by Zayn, Harry, Louis, and finally Liam.

"What?" Simone asked with her mouth wide open in shock. "They're here? Last night wasn't a dream?"

Zayn shook his head. "No, it's real. Last night wasn't a dream."

Louis smiled at all of us. "I'm impressed that you know all these things about us," he informed us.

Ana shrugged slightly. "Some of its just general knowledge for the fans, you know. For example, like how your favorite restaurant is Nando's, Niall." She laughed a bit, and smiled at all of us. We all laughed along.

"I just wish there was one nearby," Niall sighed.

"I heard there's one in Washington, D.C.," Lizzie added.

"Guess where we'll be going, then," I heard Harry respond with a smile. We all laughed as Niall lit up.

After the laughter died down, Liam asked, "So, what do you girls want to do today?"

Kelly shrugged. "We were probably just going to sit around and play Just Dance 4 while we talked. Unless someone else has something they'd like to do," she added as her gaze skimmed all of our faces.

Nobody really spoke up, which I guess could be taken as we were just going to continue what we were doing.

"Okay then, we'll keep playing Just Dance 4," Courtney decided. Everyone nodded in response, and we filed to the TV.

But, then Liam took notice of Lizzie's poster wall, the one that was lined with posters of One Direction. He raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Wow. You girls really are big fans, huh?" He asked, keeping his smile on his face.

Lizzie turned and looked at the poster wall. "Oh, that?" She asked, as blushes crept into our cheeks. "Yeah...that's a long story..."

The five of them began to laugh. "It's okay," Harry assured us.

"Thank goodness," Ana whispered as she flopped onto the couch. Then she spoke louder. "So, which song do you want to play first?"

"What's on this one?" Zayn asked.

"Call Me Maybe, Good Feeling," Ana laughed a bit as she added the next song to the list, "What Makes You Beautiful-."

"Our personal favorite," I added with another laugh. The others all smiled as I said to Ana, "Sorry for interrupting."

"Its okay, Lu," I heard Ana tell me. "Also, there's Moves like Jagger, Good Girl, Umbrella, Jailhouse Rock, Beauty and a Beat-."

"Oh yeah, it's Bieber!" Niall exclaimed with a laugh, one of the many things he is famous for. We all joined in his laughing before Simone passed him a Wii remote. "Thanks," he said to her.

"No problem. Let's play," Simone said, holding up the other three remotes. She strapped one of them on her right wrist and offered the other two to us. "Who else wants to play besides Niall and me?"

Finally, Louis stepped forward and took the third. Reluctantly, I took the fourth remote and Niall, Louis and I strapped them on our wrists as Simone chose the song. We chose our player cards and joined as the song began.

We listened to Nicki Minaj start off the song and we waited for the dance to start.

I turned around quickly to see what the others were doing. Zayn and Lizzie were admiring Kelly's drawing, and Kelly was smiling because of it. Liam and Courtney were chatting about something, and so were Ana and Harry. But I couldn't hear what either of them was talking about because that was when the dance began. I started doing the dance moves, and so did Niall, Louis, and my sister.

I was surprised to not hear anyone singing along. I mean, sometimes I sing, and Ana does too. But I ignored it, and continued to dance.

Finally, the song ended and we got our scores. Niall got the highest score, so he won the round.

"Yes!" He cheered, grinning widely.

"Good job, Niall," I told him with a smile.\

"Thanks," he responded with a kind smile.

Kelly asked, "Can we do Jailhouse Rock next?"

I started to laugh. Jailhouse Rock had a few interesting dance moves. Kelly wanted to dance to it for a reason!

"Sure, let's do it. I want to be the girl on the far right!" Ana took a remote, and so did Kelly. "You can be the girl in the skirt." She winked at Kelly, understanding why Kelly wanted to dance to it.

Let me explain it in two words. Leg guitar.

Kelly grinned, and looked at Zayn and Harry. "Do you want to dance with us?" She offered them the remotes.

Harry shrugged. "Oh, why not try it?" He took the remote, and so did Zayn, standing up.

I continued to laugh, and so did Courtney, Lizzie, and Simone.

Zayn asked Kelly, "Since this is a partner dance, mind if I'm your partner?"

"I don't mind," Kelly responded as the four of them chose their dancers. Zayn took the guy on the far left, Kelly had the girl next to him, Harry was next to Kelly, and Ana had the spot on the end.

"Have fun you guys," Courtney laughed as the song began.

The four of them began to dance. Knowing smiles were on Kelly and Ana's faces.

The rest of the girls and I were holding in laughs. But we had huge smiles on our faces as we waited for the best moment, and the end of the dance.

Niall must have seen what I was doing. He leaned over and asked me quietly, "Why are you girls laughing?"

I grinned, and whispered back, so I wouldn't ruin the surprise for Harry and Zayn, "At the end of the dance, the two people in the middle lift up their legs and the two people on the ends strum them like guitars." I laughed a bit more, and so did Niall.

"Those two are in for a big surprise then," He observed as the four of them continued dancing. The moment was approaching. I could see Ana singing along quietly, like she was keeping track of where they were in the song.

"Dancing to the jailhouse rock," she sang quietly as the move came on screen. Kelly did what she was supposed to do. She lifted her leg for Zayn to strum. He looked a bit shocked by it and a bit confused as well. Harry had the same look on his face as he lifted his leg up for Ana. But the two of them did the moves.

Now, the seven of us who weren't dancing were all laughing at this.

Then the song ended and the four of them sat down on the couch again. None of us paid any attention to the scores; we were all too busy laughing.

"What was that?" Harry asked all of us.

"Jailhouse Rock," Simone responded with a grin.

"And you knew about that?" Zayn asked.

"It threw us for a loop the first time too, so you don't need to worry," Courtney reassured him.

"You six definitely have fun together, huh?" Louis asked all of us.

Sharing a look with the other girls, I responded, "Yes we do."
