Chapter five

We pull up to a old diner in Nialls car, the boys had blared the music as loud as they possibly could. I could only guess this was just a way to release stress for what was to come later tonight. Harry and Niall climb out from the first two seats heading in without waiting for the rest of us. Liam slowly unravels his arm from behind me and Louis making sure he could catch up to them before us. Louis stands up after him and crawls out. I follow quickly behind, not wanting to somehow lose them. Just as I thought Louis was going to walk away from me he turns and reaches out his hand to me, offering me a hand to get out of the car. This act of kindness takes me by surprise but I shrug it off and thank him.

"How are you so sweet?" I ask randomly.

"What do you mean darling?" He replies. "Well, I mean Harry is just so rough and mister tough guy.. you just seem kind and layed back considering your usually silent." I explain, "Well, that's just Harry, he's had a rough past, all of us have." He tells me. "We just all handle it differently." I hold my arms closer around my body trying to obtain more body heat somehow. "Are you cold?" He asks, opening the door to the diner in front of us. "Just a little but now that were inside I should be fine.." I tell him walking quickly over to the table where the other boys sat.

I slide into the booth beside Niall, noticing Louis squeezing in beside Harry and Liam instead of joining us. I knew that I would quickly become close with Louis considering how well we had gotten along out in the parking lot earlier. Niall began jumping up and down in his seat, exciting about something. I toss a confused glance at him with my eyes.

"THEY HAVE PIZZA!" He screams causing the entire place to look at him. He acted as though he could care less what others thought of him which was vaguely normal, but still seemed a little odd. In a natural instinct I lick the tip of my finger and glide it across the table to see if I could pick up any trace of something he could of snorted. Lifting my finger back up to examine it I notice specks of something white, quickly I stand to my feet to wash it off my hand.

"Where is she going?" Liam asks as I walk away from the table. "Must of touched some of the coke I left on the table, girl like her is to innocent to touch something like that. She cant even risk getting caught with it, heard she's going to school somewhere.. Fancy." Niall replies. "She's going to Penn state." Louis murmurs. "Already know a lot about the new girl huh?" Liam quickly says nudging Louis arm causing a smile to appear on his face, but quickly disappearing a second later as he realized they weren't talking about the same thing.

I walk back to where the boys were sat sliding back where i had originally been siting. "So, what's everyone ordering?" Liam asks in a preppy mood. "Taco." Harry replies in a low tone, considering this was the first time he had said anything all night. "I'm getting a burger!" I exclaim, the others nodding in agreement. "Well I'm going to get a burger as well." Louis immediately says after me. "Stop fucking copying everything she does, suck up. We know your in love with her." Niall says under his breath, I choose to ignore it because I dont want to be in the middle of that fight. Louis sends a glaring look over at him, causing Niall to grin.

As Louis pulls his hand out from under the table he gets ready to flip him off, but the waitress interrupts. "Hi all, what can I-" She pauses in her steps looking at each of them, then continuing to finish the sentence in a shaky tone. "Uhm What can I get you today?" She turns to look at Liam who is grinning at her reaction to seeing them, "Just a sandwich." Liam tells her without manners. The other order their food and we sit waiting for it to arrive

I bite down on the last fry on my plate, wiping my mouth as the others stand up around me getting up to leave. "Dont we have to pay?" I ask in a low tone. "We are celebrity's we dont have to do anything." Niall replies in a cocky tone, making his way towards the door, Harry following close behind.
