Freya’s POV



“Mum?” I said, walking in and sitting next to her on the couch.

“How was school today hun?” She asked. “And where is Mark? I thought you guys were gonna hang out today, since it’s friday.”

“We were, but he had something with his family. So we rescheduled it for tomorrow. But, I kinda wanted to talk to you about something.” She looked up from the book she was reading. I took a deep breath and fixed the glasses that were sitting on the end of my nose. “Well, I’ve been meaning to tell you this for a while now, but I have a boyfriend. We’ve been dating for a few months now. Please don’t be mad.” I said quickly.

“Sweetheart, I’m not mad. But, I don’t know how your father and uncles are going to react.” She said laughing. I didn’t even think about them.

“Oh… right! Uncle Ni especially. They are all going to be so protective.” I put her head in my hands. “Ugh, he isn’t gonna want to come over ever with them here.”

“If they overreact, I’ll talk to them.” Mum responded. I hugged her

“Thanks mum.”

“So, when can I meet this lucky boy? And what is his name?”

“Well, his name is Clayton, but his nickname is Clayt, and he is picking me up later tonight to go to a movie.” I said.

“Nicely planned. Da and the boys will be out tonight, so he won’t meet Clayt.” I smiled.

“I do try.” I joked. Then we heard a door open and foot steps.

“Mummy!” The twins exclaimed together as they rushed over and gave Mum a hug.

“Hi Tommy! Hi Sadie!” They released her and ran up to their room. “Hey Lou.” Da came over and sat down next to my mum, putting his arm around her shoulder.

“Hi babe.” Then he looked at me. “Hey Freya! How are you?”

“I’m good, how about you?”

“I’m good. The boys and I were back at our old recording studio today and we found some of our old songs that we wrote. We are going to record them to make another album for the old fans.”

“YAS! Finally! I get to be here when One Direction releases an album and be able to appreciate it!” I screamed, running upstairs to get ready.

Louise’s POV

“Ya know, she puts Sophia and my fangirling to shame.” Louis laughed. “It’s true tho. I bet if she had lived during our time, she would be your number one fan. She always claims she was born in the ‘wrong generation’.” He laughed again. “So when are you going out with the boys tonight?”

“In about an hour. We actually decided to just head back to the recording studio. The owner is allowing us to just go into the old one and fool around when ever we want.”

“Well you did pay them big bucks when you actually needed it.”

“Yeah, and he said his daughter loved us so..” I just smiled and leaned closer to him.

“I'm glad that is in the past now.”

“What?”

“You guys being famous. The paps following us around. I’m glad that they left Freya alone, she would have been scarred for life if they hadn’t.” He just nodded.

Freya’s POV

When I heard Da leave, I came down wearing a nice dress.

“Wow Frey. You look very pretty, trying to impress this boy are we.” I blushed.

“No… I’m not.” I paused as Mum just laughed. “He should be here any minute now.” The doorbell rang. “Right on time.” I walked to the front and opened the door, kissing my boyfriend on the cheek.

“Hey Frey. Ready?” I nodded.

“Yeah, but first, I would like to introduce you to my mother.” Mum stepped forward and shook Clayton’s outstretched hand.

“It’s a pleasure to meet you Mrs Tomlinson.” My boyfriend said.

“The pleasure is all mine. Please take good care of my daughter. What movie are you guys seeing?”

“We are going to see this new disney movie. It looks really good.” Clayton responded. “She does love her disney movies.” He continued, taking my hand in his. I blushed a little at the interaction.

“Yeah, Uncle Li has influenced me there.” We both laughed. “You have to meet my aunts and uncles sometime. They are just the coolest people.”

“How many do you have?”

“Hmmm…” I quickly ran through them in my head. Niall and Matt, Harry and Abby, Zayn and Sophia, Liam and Tigs, Shane and Olivia, Ernest, Doris, Nicole and Adam, Daisy H., Daisy T. and Kyle, Fizzy and Dylan, Lottie and Jack, and Georgia and Ryan. “12 uncles and 11 aunts? About.” His jaw dropped. “Don’t worry Clayt. Not all of them are actually related. I’ll explain later.”

“You guys should get going.” Mum recommended, we nodded, said goodbye and headed out the door.
