Just another girl

Tell Me A Lie

Flashbacks of my moms tiring lecture ring through my head. "No drinking. No parties, you're on a college course not a holiday Allison!"

Screw her.

I mean seriously, if i always listened to her advice i'd get bullied for being a geek or whatever they call them these days.

"...or this necklace with these shoes?" Brooke breaks me from my thoughts with her questioning voice. Nows the time I have to admit that I have no idea what she's on about because I was too lost in my thoughts about being a geek.

Oh the joys.

"You weren't listening were you?" She practically reads my mind. I laugh nervously before admitting that i wasn't listening.

"What's wrong?" She asks dropping the pile of shoes and clothes in her arms onto the bed.

"It's just my mom..she wouldn't really approve of me going to a party" i explain looking at my shoes, which are suddenly interesting.

"It's a good job she won't be there to judge you then" she winks and throws the beautiful laced black dress at me.

"What if she asks me?" I stammer and Brooke just smiles.

"Tell her a lie."

This girl is my new bestfriend, ive decided.

"Now go get changed, we're being picked up at 7" she pushes me into the bathroom and shuts the door behind me. Well, it was more of a slam.

I can't believe this. Im actually going to a party. I do a little internal scream before stripping out of my oversized jack wills jumper and worn leggings and slipping on the dress from Brooke and I smile.

The bottom sits just above my knees and it fits my figure perfectly. I quickly scan myself over in the mirror and for the first time in forever i see myself smiling, a real smile. I smile because i was actually about to go and have fun without my mom stopping me. But most of all, I smile because of how I looked. I look happy. Free. I pull myself out of my thoughts and rush out of the bathroom and back to Brooke.

"Wow you look hot tutor girl" she winks smiling widely.

"As do you" I wink back smirking as I slip on some heels.

She's wearing a red strapless dress which sits just above her knees, she really does look beautiful.

"Now for the makeup, come here" she pats the bed next to where she's sitting and I sit next to her suddenly nervous. "...so first a little foundation" she begins grinning evilly.

I have a feeling I'm going to be sat here for a while. A long while.

"Andd your done..." Brooke finally finishes my makeup.

Took her time didn't she.

"Finally" i sigh as I stand up and walk over to the mirror where I stare long and hard at my appearance.

Not to be big headed or anything but i actually look alright. My eyeliner perfectly flicked and my lips a pale pink colour. I actually look more than alright, this is the best I've looked in ages, It feels good to be happy.

"You look stunning tuto-" she starts before she's rudely interrupted by a knock on the door. "That'll be our ride" she explains rushing over to the door and swinging it open.

A tall bleach blonde guy comes into my view. Wow, he's hot.

"Allie, meet Niall, Niall meet Allie" Brooke says, not making it awkward at all. "Allie moved here today" she informs niall, I think his name is, quickly and he gives her the 'and you're bringing her to a party already' look.

Gee thanks hottie.

She smirks at him before playfully swatting his arm. Flirt much? I guess Brooke has dibbs on this one, damn.

They both hurry out of our dorm and I waddle not far behind. It sure has been a while since I last wore heels. Probably my moms wedding...when I was 10.

Sad life, I know.

Walking to the car wasn't that difficult surprisingly, I think I have got used to the blistering pain of walking in heels.

As we finally reach the car I swing open the door suddenly not being shy anymore. "So, how far away is this party were going to?" I ask, already getting impatient.

"About ten minutes away" Brooke answers after checking with Niall.

I sigh as I get out of the car. That has got to have been the longest ten minutes of my life. I can't say I enjoyed Nialls Rock music on full blast one bit.

I guess I was too busy moaning that I didn't even notice the huge house in front of me blasting music. The same music that Niall had on in the car in fact, brilliant. I hope they take requests.

"Ugh I hope these people take flipping requests, I don't think I can take this shit much longer" I have to press the urge to stomp my foot in anger when they roll their eyes at me, sarcastically.

"Hate to point it out to you princess, but this is a party, not a school disco" He speaks patronisingly at me and I inwardly wince.

Had I been coming across stuck up? Oh great first impression Allie.

"I'm sorry-" But obviously, my apologies get cut off when a attractive guy bumps into me, spilling his drink all down the dress Brooke lent me.

Great another thing I have to replace.

I open my mouth to speak but close it again as the boy starts speaking before I can even think about coming up with something to say .

"Watch it slut!" He exclaims throwing his hands up in anger. "Didn't you see me walking through the layers of makeup caked on your face?" He asks me, being rude get again.

Images of my high school bullies rake through my head. They use to call me that.

A sudden flash of anger rakes through my entire body. "Excuse me?" I ask cocking my head to the side, still annoyed at his horrible tone.

"What?" He snaps, obviously not understanding that how he just spoke to me was so disrespectful.

"Well, your kinda being a jerk" I srug, not wanting him to know that all I want to do is throttle him.

"And you are?" He quickly spits, changing the subject.

"A person! And there's a way to talk to a person, and that's not it, you jerk" I finish speaking with a sigh, what a way to start the party.

"It's a Saturday night, so quit your preaching, you slut" He tells me this but by the time he finishes his sentence, I'm already bored.

Walking off I spot Brooke and storm over, still fuming.

"I knew I should of worn my jeans!" I grumble, poring myself a drink hastily.

"Woah, slow down tutor girl. Did I just spot flirting between little miss ordinary and mr popular?" Brook wiggles her eyebrows suggestively and I shove her arm playfully.

"More like a near death expericance, but sure flirting works too..." I speak sarcastically and my tone earns a glare to be sent my way.

"Ha ha very funny" she retorts "I can't actually believe little miss tutor girl over here spoke to the Harry styles!" She finishes in an excited tone and I don't hide the sarcastic roll of my eyes.

"Yeah and the Harry styles is a complete jerk!" I laugh "but he is seriously hot though" i add on, ignoring the raise of Brooke's eyebrows.

Before anything more could be said about mr popular the screeching voice of my high school bully rings through the air causing me to stiffen in place. Oh great, time for round 2.
