Still the One

Lauren
I've been working on this revenge thing for a few days now. Normally, Jordan and I teamed up and she thought of the ideas, but now I was on my own. I was in need of serious help, and fortunately I knew just who to enlist. The one and only Louis Tomlinson.

Jordan
I knew Lauren's revenge was coming. But me being the one who came up with her ideas? I knew it would be seriously delayed as well. And that she would get the boys to help her. Just not my boy. I would make sure of that.

Lauren
"Hi, Louis! It's Lauren," I said into the phone.
"Really? I thought it was Niall. Good thing I have caller ID."
"Haha. But I need your help."
"Hmm I don't know. I'm kind of busy right now."
"Louis. It'll only take a few minutes."
"Alright. I'm setting a timer. You get five minutes. Four fifty-nine. Four fifty-eight..."
"Alright Louis I get it. I need help getting revenge on Jordan."
"Really? Why didn't you say so? I'm turning the timer off as we speak!"
"Good. Cause I have no idea what to do."
"Lightbulb." He said.
"Do you have an idea?"
"No, I had a brain fart. Of course I have an idea! Who's that boy she had her first kiss with?"
"Chase," I said, not sure what he was getting at.
"Do you know where he is?"
"West Virginia. The Caudells get Christmas cards from them every year."
"Okay. So write him a letter from Jordan saying you want to catch up and ask him to come visit for the weekend."
"Oh my gosh! That's brilLIAM! She'll be so humiliated! Why didn't I think of that?!"
"Because I did. Now if that's all, I really need to-"
"-Wait! What if he doesn't come?"
"Then you can just say you're going to be the bigger person and stop or something stupid like that," Louis said with a hint of annoyance.
"Okay. Thank you!"
"Glad to be of service. Bye!"
"Bye!" I said as I hung up.
I think I have a letter to write.

Lauren

Chase is coming today. So are the boys and Eleanor, Perrie, and Danielle. Best of all, Jordan doesn't suspect a thing and everyone knows but her. I'm working on my evil laugh. It's getting pretty good.

Jordan
Just after everyone had arrived, the doorbell rang. Lauren's parents weren't home and she wasn't nearby, so I opened the door.
"That's funny. Lauren didn't say anything about a package coming today!" I thought. I would never had guessed the visitor was coming for me. Never in my wildest dreams.
But there he was. A boy I had once known so well.
"Chase?"
"Jordan?" He asked.
"Is it really you?"
"It was when I got off the plane," he said looking around. "Is it you?"
"Yes, it's me," I smiled. "How are you?"
"I'm great. How are you?"
"The same. Oh. Come in! Where are my manners? Silly Jordan!"
He laughed. It was much different from the one in my childhood. But that was to be expected. He was almost grown up now. So was I.
"So are you going to college next fall?" He asked.
"Yeah. University of Cincinnati. Are you?"
"University of West Virginia," he answered plainly.
"Nice. Are you going to play anything there?" I asked as I led him through Lauren's house.
"Football. Are you?"
"Yeah. Swimming. I finally found a sport!" I joked.
"Haha. I remember you did the usual girl stuff like gymnastics and ballet, right?"
"Yeah, but I quit ballet because I hated tights and my feet always got cold in gymnastics and all I could do was a backbend!"
He laughed again. We were almost to the family room now, and I'm sure they could hear us.
"Chase, I'd like to introduce you to Niall, Harry, Zayn, Liam, Louis, Lauren, Danielle, Eleanor, and Perrie. Guys, this is Chase. Say hi!"
"Hey! You guys are from One Direction, right?" Chase confirmed.
"We are," said Liam kindly. "Are you a fan?"
"Um no. But my sister is," he said as the girls and I laughed.
"We've heard lots about you!" Louis said cheekily as I put my face in my hands. I was starting to get embarrassed.
"We heard you were Jordan's first kiss," Zayn said, just as cheekily.
"Yeah. Kinda." Chase said.
I could feel my face turning red. Lauren must've noticed because she said "Hey! Why don't we play a game? How about Spin the Bottle?"
At that moment, I realized what was going on. This was her revenge. And everyone had known, except me. I would have a tough time explaining to Chase if he didn't already know. Lauren was preparing to put me through the most humiliating time of my life. And I had walked right into it with open arms. I hadn't even questioned Chase when he showed up. I just welcomed him into my best friend's home without a thought.

Lauren
My plan was working flawlessly and Jordan was clueless as to my plans. Everyone had agreed to play Spin the Bottle; they all knew what was going on. Chase and Jordan were a bit reluctant, but agreed seeing how everyone else did.
"I'll be right back!" I called, going in search of a bottle. We did t drink much pop, but even a beer can would work. "Found one!" Apparently, my dad had a secret stash of the old Coke bottles that were still made of glass. "I only need someone to drink it, cause I don't like Vanilla Coke."
"Ooh! I'll have it! Vanilla Coke's my favorite!" Jordan said, finishing the twelve ounce bottle in just a few gulps.
"Chug it chug it!" Zayn chanted, causing Jordan to nearly choke.
"Oh my goodness, Zayn! I almost died!" Jordan cried, whacking him with a pillow.
Niall laughed. "You won't die from Coke!"
"Niall, I almost die from everything! I choke on my own spit all the time! Even sometimes during class!" Jordan replied, causing everyone to laugh. "I almost die at practice when my coach makes us go the whole length of the pool without taking a breath!"
"Good to know, let's play now!" Dani rushed.
"Okay!" The ret of us responded.
"I wanna go first!" Harry screamed.
"Harry behave! We have company!" Jordan reprimanded.
"Aww, Jordan. That's so sweet. You think of us as company!" Liam said with a smile.
"No, you idiot. She was talking about Chase!" Louis said sarcastically.
Jordan nodded slowly to emphasize it.
After what seemed like forever, Harry finally spun the bottle. It landed on Perrie.
"Sorry Zayn!" He said as he gave Perrie a quick kiss.
"My turn!" Perrie called and spun the bottle. It landed on El. "We'll, this is awkward. Do I have to?"
"Yes!" Louis called. "It's the rules!"
"Okay fine," she said and kissed El. El laughed and started singing I Kissed A Girl by Katy Perry.
"Alright, me now!" El began. "Harry! It's you!" She gave Harry a kiss that seemed like forever. Well, maybe that's just because he's my boyfriend.
Harry spun the bottle without a word. It chose Louis.
"Aww! It's Larry Stylinson!" Jordan called cheekily. "I'm sorry, but this is going on Tumblr and Twitter!"
"Yup! Let's get pictures of Larry!" I laughed.
Several rounds later, it had finally gotten to Chase. And just as I had hoped, it landed on Jordan. Her face was beet red as he leaned in to kiss her. My plan was almost complete.

Jordan
I wanted to take a pillow and put it over my face. I had never been this embarrassed and this was now my most embarrassing moment. And it happened in front of my boyfriend! I don't think Chase knew we were dating, and as long as he didn't ask me out, he wouldn't need to.
I shook my hair out as I always did, and spun the bottle. Niall. Finally something to take the edge off. A kiss from my boyfriend was just what I needed. Maybe. Unless he and Lauren had something else planned to embarrass me. Nope. I was safe this time. Just a wonderful kiss from my loving boyfriend. But I didn't make it last too long; I couldn't let Chase find out on his own. That would be rude.
"This is getting boring. How about we play something else?" Harry suggested.
"Sure! I'm down mate!" Liam agreed.
"Seven Minutes in Heaven?" Dani asked.
"Okay!" The rest of us called.
"I'll go make the paper slip things," Lauren said as she got up and walked into the kitchen.
"I'll help!" Perrie said as she did the same.
A few minutes later, we were all ready to play. First, Louis took Eleanor into the closet by Lauren's garage door.
"Keep it clean, yeah?" Liam called.
There was no way Louis would keep it clean. We all knew it.
Then, Harry went in with Lauren, Liam went in with Danielle, and then for some odd reason, I had to take Chase. Lauren might've taken this too far. But, being the good sport I am, took Chase's hand and led him to the coat closet.
When we were alone I whispered "What made you decide to come?"
"You wrote me a letter asking me to come catch up. Don't you remember?"
"No. I have a hunch Lauren wrote that letter. She's been wanting to embarrass me and I should've known she would've gotten you to come down."
"We'll that makes this awkward. But aren't you glad I'm here?" Chase asked.
"A little," I smiled.
"Then let's do what this game was created for, huh?" Chase suggested.
"Alright."
We had only been kissing for a secondwhen I suddenly pulled back.
"I'm sorry," I began. "I should've told you this before, but Niall's my boyfriend and I don't think he would appreciate me doing this. I really like you, but I just can't do this now."
"That's okay. I understand. I'm glad you were honest and upfront with me. A lot of girls don't have the dignity to do that. We can still be friends though. I've missed my best girl friend," he said kindly.
"You're so nice! How have I lived without you all these years? Lets stay in touch, okay? I've missed you too. I don't think you realize how much time I spent wondering if you even remembered me, let alone missed me!"
"Oh I missed you for sure, Jordan!" He smiled.
"Okay! Seven minutes are up lovebirds! Niall's getting jealous. It's his turn to take you Jordan." Louis said blatantly.
Chase walked out just as Niall came in.
"Hi Princess," he greeted me just as the door closed.
"Hey Ni! Listen, Chase and I barely even kissed, we're just going to be friends and I didn't want to make you upset so I told him we were dating and he's cool and I just-"
My rant was interrupted by Niall kissing me. I kissed back and let myself relax. When we had finished, Niall spoke. "I believe you Princess and I trust you. I understand you had a lot to clear up with him and I think you handled it well."
"Thanks, Ni! I love you!" I said. Oh my my! What if he doesn't say it back? I can't remember if we've said it yet. Oh my my.
"I love you too Princess!" Niall laughed at my uneasiness and kissed me until Louis yelled at us to get out.
My life wasn't perfect right now, but it was pretty dang close.
