"Get up fat butt." I heard Hallie scream from outside my door. I moaned and crawled out of bed. I toppled onto the wood floor and moaned in pain. She started banging on the door giving me a head ache.

"Shut up! I'm awake!" I screamed. I heard her laugh and walk away. I climbed up and started getting dressed. I had to go to my first class, music. I threw on a white skirt that ruffled out and a purple floral top. I curled my hair an put on my silver sparkly TOMS.

I walked out the door and Brittany and Hallie were waiting for me.

"We're late." Brittany complained grabbing my wrist and dragging me out. We started running through the halls and out the door. We were jogging down the sidewalk when I ran into something hard. I fell to the ground, landing on my bum.

I moaned in pain and stood up, looking into there's of none other than... You guessed it, Niall Horan. I smiled weakly and he beamed at me.

"Hey!" he said. I looked ahead to see Brittany and Hallie a while away.

"Hi! It's nice to see you but I must go!" I said running past him and bolting towards the huge glass building we had college in. I ran into class and the bell suddenly rung.

"Right on time Miss Roberts." my teacher said sternly. I apologized quietly and sat down in my seat.

"Today we will be performing our choice songs from last week." our teacher informed us. She looked through the class and continued.

"We have some very special guest today. Introducing, One Direction!" she said beaming. Suddenly I felt my stomache drop. All the girls cheered as the boys walked in. They waved and smiled cheekily. I looked down at the ground, not wanting Niall to see my face.

"Who wants to go first?" she asked, sickly sweet. I heard a bunch of girls raise their hands frantically.

Not me.

Not me.

Not me.

Not me.

Not me.

"How about you, Miss Roberts?" I heard my teacher ask evily.

Thanks life. Note the sarcasm in my voice.

I raised my head slowly, to see everyone staring at me, including the boys. They all nudged Niall who just beamed at me. I smiled weakly and stood up. I started heading towards the microphone in the middle of the classroom. I stumbled towards the microphone and stared at the class. The girls were giving me dirty looks, Hallie and Brittany were giving me thumbs up, and The boys were all beaming at me.

I took the microphone in my hand and closed my eyes.

"White Lips, pale face, breathing in the snow flakes..." I started singing Ed Sheerans, The A Team.

"And they say, she's in the class A team, stuck in her daydream..." I started singing the chorus as the piano got more intense. I refused to open my eyes out of pure embarrassment. I finished the song, losing myself in the words. I finished and slowly opened my eyes.

I saw everyone staring at me open mouthed. The boys. The teacher. The class. Brittany and Hallie. They all stared at me in shock and suddenly burst into applause. I felt a smile appear on my face. I was... Good? Apparently. I shuffled over to my seat and sat blankly as everyone else performed.

I could see from the corner of my eye that Niall was trying to get over to me, but he had to pay attention to the performers. The bell finally rang and I bolted towards the door.
