I wake up on a cloudy morning and I realized that I needed to get ready for school. I throw on a t shirt and some sweatpants. I walk downstairs and grab an instant pancake maker mix from my cabinet. I fill it with water and start making my pancakes. I am not looking foward to going to school today, but I am also not looking forward to Niall coming back.
I never actually thought about what was going to happen when that blonde haired boy comes back. Maybe we will just completley forget about each other and things will go back to the way they were before.
The only problem I had right now was Mandy. I don't understand her at all. How come she didn't bother me when Niall was here but as soon as he left she was back to harrasing me. I used to think about telling the principal but I don't want to be known for being the tattle tale of the school.
I rolled out of bed and put on sweatpants and a black sweatshirt. I walked downstairs and I grabbed a water bottle and some crackers and zipped it into my school bag. I have to admit, not having a car and walking to school has made me loose a lot of weight. I'm not that heavy, but loosing a couple of pounds wouldn't kill me.
I still need to save up for a car. I think I am going to get a job at the corner store around my block on the weekends so I can earn some money. I arrive at school and as soon as I walk in, Mary runs straight up to me. "Sarah!! Hey, I need to talk to you really quickly."
I was sort of confused because me and Mary have sort of broke apart from each other, and we don't really talk to each other any more.
"Yeah?" I said.
"This weekend my parents are gonna be in Colarado, so I'm gonna throw a party. Wanna come?"
Mary seemed really excited about this. Last time she threw a party, there was beer and I didn't drink any because I was too afraid. There were kids throwing up, and I was really uncomfortable.
"Yeah I'll come, It seems fun," I lied.
I really wasn't excited for her party, because I haven't gotten invited to a party ever since Mary's last one.
After school, I walk home and I feel a hand rest of my shoulder. I quickly turn around and see Mandy behind me. "Hey Sarah!" she says to me.
"Oh hey" I say cautiously.
"I'm sorry about what's been happening in our past, I just want to be friends with you. I don't want to fight, or start any drama." Her words shocked me. Was she actually going to be my friend? Now I don't have to worry about girl drama anymore.
"I think that's a good idea" I say while smiling.
"You're going to Mary's party right? It's gonna be HUGE!"
"Uhhh" I stutter. I still wasn't sure if I was actually going, or if I just overall decided to pretend I was sick.
"C'mon, you should come. Nothing bads gonna happen."
She was right. I haven't had fun in a really long time, and I want my high school expirence to be something to remember. I'm going to go to her party, dance, and have fun. Most importantly, have fun without Niall. I need some time to think about other things, even if that means downing a few bottles of vodka.
"Yeah I'll be there" I say excited. Wow, I finally have some friends.

Niall's POV:
"MOM!!!" I scream at her
"Niall, do not get angry at me. What are you yelling about"
"Sorry mum. My phone isn't working! Can we go back to America where it actually works! My phone number keeps saying that its enabled."
"That's because we got your iphone in America, and we sold your old phone. I think it's good for you, now you can embrace your envoirnment that is surrounding you."
"Whatever mum" I whine.
What can I even do here anyway, it's not like any of my friends are gonna wanna hang out with me, after I left them.
Well, maybe Harry will be up for hanging out with me. It's not like I can call him, or text him - or even tweet him! I'll just walk to his house.
"Mum, I'm going to walk to Harry's house and see if he wants to chill for a while" I scream from upstairs while I put my vans on.
"Good sweetie." my mum shouts back.
As I walk about two blocks to Harry's house, It seems so weird to be seeing all of my old surroundings that I used to see everyday. It brings back so many old memories, like when Harry fell backwards into the parks waterfountain, or when Liam his got his foot stuck in the wedges between the park bench.
I arrive at Harry's house and as I walk on the front porch, I look at Mrs. Styles' garden that she takes care of in the front of her house. They have such a nice, petite house. I remember when Harry and I would ride our bikes around the neighborhood, and one time we were riding back to his house and we destoryed like fifteen flowers. We thought Harry's mom would be mad about it, but she was totally fine.
I knock on the front door twice. I was sort of nervous but Harry is a pretty cool guy. We've been buddies for years.
"I'm sorry but I don't want any girl scout cookies" I hear a voice scream from the house
"Try again Anne" I say to hint that it's me.
After a few seconds I see Anne Styles arrive at the door and her face instantly lights up. "Niall! When did you come back up here?" She said to me.
"I got down here last week. How are you guys? Is Harry home right now?"
"Harry!There is someone here for you!" She screames as she gestures me to walk inside.
"Mum I'm sort of busy with my homewo- NIALL!!"
Harry hugs me and then starts to walk into the living room as I follow him.
"You're back?! How was America!" He says interested. I took a seat on the couch while Harry turned on fifa. "It was good, but I missed it here." I wasn't really sure if I missed it here though. Maybe I was just missing Sarah. I couldn't wait to see her when I came back. What should I do to surprise her? Should I get her roses? Yeah, roses seem like a good idea. I remember when we went to the park that one Saturday, We found a store with red roses and I bought one for her, and she told me that they were her favorite. Maybe we should-
before I could continue daydreaming, Harry inturruped me.
"You sure you're good lad? Haha, what are you thinkin' about?"
I nervously said, "ehh nothing really, I just met this girl"
"You met a girl! What's her name? Is she older than you? Oohh, older women"
I laughed and then dead panned, "Harry, she isn't an older women, she's in my grade and we met about 7 months ago."
Sarah's POV:
Tonight is the party and I am super hype for it. It's probably the first party I'm going to that I'm excited to have the time of my life at. I didn't know what to wear, because most of my wardrobe was sweatshirts and leggings. I had a few nice things, so I guess it's better than nothing.
I pull out a cardigan, a crop top, and leggings. My mom bought a crop top, a few months ago for my birthday because she thought it would look cute on me. I hated it, and I thought it made me look like a slut so I threw it the back of my closet. Until tonight, where I don't care what anybody thinks of me. Mary texted me telling me that I can come in 10 minutes. Mary's house is around the corner from mine, so I wasn't in a rush to leave. Before leaving, I texted my mom "Going to sleep over Mary's tonight, okay?" Even though she probably won't answer.
