Changes // Chapter 2

~ Athena's eyes

"Niall Horan saw my cover"

"Niall Horan saw your what?!" Anna looked as if she was gonna faint

I swallowed before speaking again:

"Niall saw the cover, the one that I posted yesterday, he saw it, he commented it, liked it,  started following me -and- he messaged me"

Anna's face went pale. She quickly took my phone out of my shaky hands and verified that I wasn't crazy.

"Oh. My. God. Niall Horan saw your cover!" she sounded so excited

"That's what I've been telling you, Sherlock!"

She grabbed my hands and started jumping while screaming, minutes later I joined her.

"Have you answered him?" She asked some minutes later after we both calmed down

"I haven't, I'm scared to" I answered while playing with my fingers

"Are you stupid, or a Simon Cowell fan!?"

My sister and me are very sarcastic. And when I say very, i mean it, -very-

"Well I'm sorry I was too busy having a fucking panic attack!"

"Right, sorry" She chuckled

"But I have to check what he said anyways" I said while taking a deep breath

"You better bitch, if not imma put you up for adoption"

"You can't put me for adoption, I'm an adult" I laughed

"Fine. Just check what he sent you"

I nodded and opened my twitter dm's. I could see my One Direction groupchats, but at the top was the message that I was looking for

@NiallOfficial sent you a message!

My hands pressed the message and I was quickly shaking like crazy again. Some tears were forming in my eyes and I tried to swallow the lump in my throat.

"What?! What did he say?! Anna asked desperately

I couldn't talk, my hands just gave her my phone.

@NiallOfficial: Hey Athena! I saw your cover and I liked it very much! You are very talented! I wanted to know if you would maybe want to join a zoom with me and my manager and make some small talk, I seriously think you can be big someday.
Let me know what you think.
kisses, Niall

"He totally likes you!" Anna shouted

I hit her in the head before speaking

"He barely knows my name, he does not like me"

"You are right, I got a bit caught up with the moment. I feel like you are in a y/n story!"

I laughed "Imagine if this turned out to be those cliche wattpad fanfics and we both end up falling in love"

"Imma manifest that" Anna giggled

After our laughter died down there was a peaceful silence in which i could only hear our heavy breathing

"You should probably answer back" Anna broke the silence

"Yes you are right. Look at you! You finally work for something!" A smirk making it's way to my face

She hit me in the head the same way I had hit her before

"Yeah yeah, now answer him" she said chuckling

My fingers quickly typed a response

- Hey Niall! First of all thank you for taking your time to listen to my singing, I'm a big fan, you were one of the musicians that made me fall in love with music. I would love to have that zoom with you and your manager. Thank you for the opportunity! ❤️"

Even if I hated modest, this was a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity, I wasn't gonna let it go.

I was heading to the kitchen in hopes to finally eat my breakfast, because you know, food is fuel.

'Hi, we are One Direction! Someone's calling you, answer your phone! Unless you don't like them, then you can just pretend you didn't hear me, which I would never do to anyone cause it would be mean. Unless they smell...'

'Wow! You are popular! Someone's calling you pick up your phone!'

And as Louis ordered, i did, I picked up my phone

"You saying that you will call me later and then not calling me is the reason why I have trust issues. That and the "18 month hiatus".

Sophie

"Right! Sorry! I was busy having a panic attack"

"A panic attack? You never had those, like, ever" She said with a tint of worry in her voice

"Well maybe if you checked my twitter you would realize why" A tint of sarcasm in my tone

"On it" She said to let me know that she was checking my social

'One, two, three...' i counted to myself

In the moment I pronounced the word 'three' a loud and very high pitched scream came from the other side of the phone

"Niall fucking Horan saw -your- cover" She said emphasizing the word 'your'

"I know, it's crazy isn't it?" I smiled even if she couldn't see me, I'm sure she could sense my smile in my voice.

"It is! Oh my god!"

"Imma call you later, I haven't had breakfast yet and i need food"

"You better call me back"

"I will" I said chuckling

"Goodbyee" Sophie said

The butterfly effect, i think that's what it's called. We call the butterfly effect to small innocent actions that end up becoming a lifechanging thing. So if you couldn't tell by now, I was experimenting the butterfly effect. I could've never thought that posting a harmless video such as me singing would turn out to become this. Little did I know, that the butterfly effect would become much bigger than this.
