That Guitar /n.h/

Chapter 17: getting ready

SARAHS POV

I had gotten a text from sophia. Finally! I thought she had forgotten about me. It said "Hey Sarah, why weren't you at school yesterday :/ I got worried". Well I know for a fact now, that she missed me.

"Long story, short. I'll explain later tho" I sent. I quickly put on my clothes for today. Hollister hoodie with denim shorts. I added on some mascara and left the rest of my face makeup free. The weekend are my face resting time, no makeup.

I left my phone on the charger, to use the bathroom. I looked in the mirror, and there was a bruise on my wrist. That's weird, I don't remember getting that. I headed back to my room and went on my phone.

Nothing from Sophia, but a message from Lou. "Hiiiii" his DM said. "Hey :)" I sent. "Sarah we're leaving now" I heard my mom call. Me, my sisters and my mom are going shopping together. I might get a few things for the trip.

We get in the car, and I immediately turned on 'Four'. 'Fools Gold' was playing. "And I knew that you used me from the day that we first met" I sang. "Mom I think this is gonna be my next cover" I told her.

"Oh fascinating honey" she smiled. My sisters rolled their eyes, jealously. We drove off, to the mall. "So mom, I can really go to London" I asked her. "Yep, as l long as you get caught back up with school" she told me.

"Okay thanks so much again, mom" I told her trying to give her a hug. "You know you should be driving, not me" she laughed. "I so wish" I laughed with her.

We got to the mall, and I went to Hollister by myself. My sisters wanted food first, I just wanted to get the shopping done before I ate. I walked into the lady's side of the store, and smelt the strong whiff of Hollister spray, and the lights got dimmer.

As I looked around the store, I spotted a very familiar face. Shit. It was my ex boy friend. Christopher. I dated him back in 8th grade, we were young and thought we had it all. Then, one day I finally woke up and saw that he was cheating with... Lily. That's one of the reasons why we don't get along.

Anyway, I tried my best to keep my distance away from him. I picked up a pair of skinny jeans, and a gray crop top that had the Hollister logo on it. I went to the back of the store, to get some underwear, because Id get embarrassed in front of the lads.

I put all of my items on the counter, and let the cashier ring them up. "Sarah" I heard a voice behind me ask. It was Christopher. I turned around, so that I could fully see his face. "Uh hey" I said avoiding eye contact. "You look great, did you do something different to your hair" he asked me.

"Um uh" I stuttered. I didn't want to answer him. "Okay your total is $34.56" the cashier told me. I handed her my money, and left the store. I didn't look at Christopher. I just left. I soon found my mom at the food court, eating 'Subway'. I sat down and ate the food that my mom got me.

NIALLS POV

Me and Harry haven't talked for 9 hours so far. I hated being like this, but it's Sarah's fault. She's just too god damn perfect! I go on twitter, wanting to talk to Sarah.

"Hi love :) x" I sent.

"NIALL GET YOUR ASS DOWN HERE WE'RE GOING BOWLING" i heard Lou yell from down stairs. "OKAY" I yelled back. I walked down the stares to see everyone with their girls. Lou and Eleanor, Zayn with Perrie, Liam with Sophia, and then Harry with this girl that I've never seen before, I guess Nicole.

"Okay this is awkward" Liam laughed taking Sophia's hand and heading out the door. Everyone else followed. I got a notification on my phone from Sarah.

"Hi Niall :)" it read. Sarah's so cute, it's unexplainable. "Wassup" I asked her. We all got into the car, with 'Thinking Out Loud' by Ed Sheeran playing. "Getting ready for London" Sarah typed. "Awesome! I can't wait!" I sent back. "Same ;)" she said.

We were all in the car, and everyone was talking with each other. Then me over here, I'm taking to a girl I possibly love, that lives more than 30,000 miles away. But the thing is, I'm meeting her in about 2 days.

SARAHS POV

We came home from the mall, and I started packing. I know I'm not gonna be there for 2 days but still, gotta be prepared. I pulled out my neon green, suit case, and began my packing session.

I packed my outfits, about 12 of them. I finally got everything organized. I just needed one more thing, my guitar!
