Food Critic

*Holly's POV*

"Parks, Holly Parks." I said to Niall.

"Okay Ms. Parks I will give you call later as to what I was am going to ask you to cook. I hope your prepared because I eat a lot!" he spoke. That kind of makes me nervous but hey im up for the challenge!

"Yes Sir Mr. Niall I'm ready for whatever." I spoke confidently.

"Alright Holly Parks I will see you at 5."he said.

"Yes you will."

"Bye Bye now." he said.

"Goodbye!" I spoke a little to anxiously.

As soon as I hung up I let out an ear piercing scream witch cause Austin to roll out of bed and onto the floor. She picked her head up and I swear if looks could kill I would have been brutally murdered.

"What the hell was that?!?!" she yelled.

"I just got a call from a man named Niall wanting me to come to his house at 5 to do a trial meal to see if he wants me as his new chef!!" I yelled back in excitement. Austin got up off the ground and gave me a great big hug!

"That's great chika but what are you going to wear?" she asked. Wow, I never did think about that.

"I don't but you know what that means?" I sad happily.

"It means your gonna drag me to the mall to stand around for hours upon hours while you skim through endless racks of clothes just to piss me off, also known as your sport."

"What shopping?" I asked.

"No pissing me off." she said with a straight face.

"Oh well yeah so im gonna go hop in the shower!" I spoke and she nodded her head.

I got up out of bed and went to the bathroom. I grabbed a towel from under the sink and turned on the water and waited until it got reasonably hot. I got in and began washing my body and my hair, I went ahead and shaved my legs as well. After standing in there for I got out and wrapped myself in the fluffy white towel.

I walked over to my closet and picked out an outfit to wear to the mall. I sat down on the floor in front of me mirror and began hair and makeup. By the time I was finished and ate breakfast Austin came into the kitchen dressed and ready to go.

"Ready?" she asked. I nodded my head grabbed my keys and we set out for the mall. While we were at the mall I got a text from Niall telling he wanted salad, chicken parmesan with a while sauce and fresh garlic bread, for dessert he wanted newyork style cheesecake. Didn't seem to hard for me to make, pretty simple just a little time consuming. He also texted me the address of the house and when I google earthed it, I was astounded that the house was huge!

After our shopping we went to the super market and picked up all the things that I would then went back to the apartment to get dressed and ready for this trial dinner.

As I walked to the kitchen Austin ran up and gave me a big hug.

"Good Luck babe!!!!" she said. She helped me load the food and such into the car and I set off. After about a 30 minute drive I arrived at the house. I walked up to the front door and knocked on the door and gave I a knock. I waited a few seconds before the door was opened by a tall blonde boy with striking blue eyes.

"Holly Parks?" he asked.

"Niall?" I spoke. He nodded his head and offered to help me with the food. As we walked through the door with the food in hand he led me to the kitchen.

"Wow this is huge!" I spoke as I looked around.

"Yeah he likes a big a big kitchen." he spoke. I turned around and gave him a confused look.

"Wait isn't this your kitchen? Didn't you want me to be your private chef?" I asked. He looked at the ground and shuffled his feet from side to side.

"Well..ya see... this is actually my best mates kitchen. His chef is shit but he didn't wanna get a new one because its 'to much work' so he kinda doesn't know that your here. So he is gonna eat the dinner thinking his old chef Mark is making it. But when he tastes it and see that it is actually good I hope he will want to hire as much I do. " he said. I was a little taken back because a) the owner of this house doesn't know im here and b) im working in another chefs kitchen. Now in the food industry unless your invited to work there it is very disrespectful.

"Oh umm are you sure it would be okay? You know working in somebody elses kitchen and they don't even know im here?" I asked unsure.

"Oh absolutely!" he said reassuringly.

"Okay if you say so." I said as I began to unpack the food.

"Okay well ill leave you to it then. See you at dinner." he said and walked out of the kitchen.

I took a minute to sort everything and then started on the cheesecake because that takes the longest.

*1 hour later*

I was putting on the finishing touches to the cheesecake when Niall came in the kitchen and warned me dinner would be in 10 minutes and told me the servants would take the food out there he also told me to prepare 6 plates because that's how many people would be eating. I nodded and continued my work.

After I had prepared 6 plates the clock struck 7 oclock sand the kitchen flooded with servants grabbing the first cores witch was the salad. I stayed behind the kitchen when Niall came in and looked at me funny.

"What are you doing in here? You should be out there eating with us, that's why I asked for 6 plates." he spoke. Oh I didn't know he wanted m to join him.

"Oh Niall I couldn't do that I don't want to intrude." I spoke as he tried to pull me with him.

"Nonsense come on and take that apron off and join us. But heres the thing we arnt gonna tell Harry that you made it we are gonna say that you are my 'date' and tell him until the end, okay?" I guess Harry is the owner of this house. I huffed and nodded my head while taking off my apron.

Niall led the way to the dinning room witch was just as big as the kitchen. As we walked in I saw 4 other boys sitting eating the salad.

"Boys I want you to meet Holly, she is my guest." he spoke. All the boys looked up at me and smiled.

"Hi Holly I'm Liam." he spoke and gave my hand a good shake.

"Hi I'm Zayn."

"Hi, I'm Louis and your pretty." he kissed the back of my hand and I blushed, but Niall swatted him away.

"Hello Holly I'm Harry." he spoke as he gave my hand a sake and took a seat at the head of the table. Niall pulled out a chair for me right next to Liam and across from himself. As the servants brought in the salad all the boys except Niall and I.

"Holly I'm afraid to warn you but Harry's chef is a shit chef and if you die from eating his disgusting food then it was nice to meet you." Zayn spoke. I giggled and Niall nudged my leg under the table earning a look from me.

"I'm sure its not that bad." I said as everyone took a bite of the salad. I looked a their reactions and prayed it was good. All of their eyes widened and I got scared, so I took a bit for myself.

"Oh my God." Louis spoke up. I looked over at him.

"Harrys I don't know what you told your chef but you should have told him that a long time ago this is amazing!!" he exclaimed. The rest of the boys nodded in agreement.

"The funny thing is I didn't tell him anything he must have heard us talking about his crap food." he replied. I looked at Niall and he gave me a big smile.

About 10 minutes later the servants came out with the second cores witch was the chicken parmesan with a white sauce. All the boys just looked at it before unsurely picking up their forks and taking a bite. They all groaned and leaned back in their seats with a smile upon their face.

"Harry are you sure you didn't get yourself a new chef, because Mark does not usually cook like this." spoke Niall. I kicked him underneath the table and he coughed awkwardly.

"I'm sure I didn't hire anyone else." he spoke. "But whatever mark is doing he needs to keep doing it."

After another 20 minutes the servants took up our plates and brought out the cheesecake all the boys mouths were watering and they were excited bout the desert.

They all took a bite and moaned once again.

"Oh my God!!" Harry said. "This cheesecake is flawless."

I smiled to myself and kept eating. After everyone was finished eating Niall stood came got me and stood at the head of the table.

"Boys I have something to say. Mark Super didn't make that meal Holly did." he said. All the boys looked at us wide eyed.

"How?" Liam asked.

"Um Niall answered my add in the newspaper because I was looking for a job as a chef. He told me what to cook and when to come here and I did it before we all sat down." I spoke quietly.

Harry rose from his seat walked over to me and gave me a huge hug. Soon all the boys joined in and I couldn't breathe.

"Okay guys cant breathe." they all let go and Harry held me at arms length and looked me in the eyes, witch was kinda intimidating.

"Your hired."
