Summer '13

***Louis's POV***

The lads and I were all sprawled over Harry and I's sofa and chairs, watching Love, Actually for the millionth time. Eleanor, Danielle and Perrie had dragged Mia to the mall for a "girl's day out" or something. I had given Eleanor my credit card so she could buy Mia something, but god knows what else she's going to buy. I once gave her my card for some town shopping and she came back toting two bags just for Bath & Body Works candles.

"Since you got to choose the movie this time, tell me how you and Mia are getting along," I said, pausing the movie right where David and Natalie are about to kiss.

"Lou! It was getting to the best part," Harry complained.

I gave him my most stern look.

"Fine, I guess. Mia's a pretty good singer, actually," he mumbled.

"What?"

"Yeah… I accidentally caught her singing at like, eight in the morning," Harry laughed.

Mia was singing again? She never told me… ever since Dad died… she threw out her guitar and everything. Mia was going to try out on the X-factor with me, but her dreams were ultimately shattered.

This was not good. There must be some reason why she started singing again.

And I was going to find out, one way or another.

***Mia's POV***

"Isn't this just adorable?" Perrie gushed, admiring a hat resting on top of her in a wall mirror. Danielle and Eleanor swooped in like vultures, squealing their agreements.

I smiled, as I watched them. I was really glad they had wanted all of us to be friends. As much as I loved Louis, there was only so much of hanging out with five guys that I could take.

"Omg! This purse would go adorable with you outfit Mia," Eleanor exclaimed, plucking the cute bag off of the mannequin's outstretched arm.

"It totally would," Danielle said, nodding in agreement.

"I'll buy it for you. It's only $167," Eleanor said, reading the price tag.

"Are you crazy? That's way too expensive for a bag!" I gaped. I never spent that much on a bag, unless I really wanted it.

"Honey, Louis gave me his credit card," Eleanor said, giving me a devilish smile and she picked up a huge basket full of clothes and jewelry that I hadn't noticed she'd been carrying.

All of us laughed, as we continued to throw items into the basket. I'm sure we maxed out his credit card.

"So you've never had Nandos?" Danielle asked me, as the four of us sat in the food court, eating Nandos.

"Nope," I said, sipping my soda.

"We've been to Nandos probably too much for our liking. Niall insists on going all the time," Perrie rolls her eyes, giving me a good natured smile.

"Can you tell me some embarrassing stories of Louis as a kid?" Eleanor begged, switching the topic so quickly I had to bite my tongue from laughing.

"Oh yeah! So…"

I spent the next ten minutes telling the girls how I had put worms in Louis's spaghetti and he didn't realize it until after he had bit into one.

Hanging with Eleanor, Perrie and Danielle was probably the most fun I've had in a while.
