Amber (L.P)

Five

Amber

I hate being alone so much. It's the worst feeling in the world, not knowing what could happen and not having anyone by your side.

I try not to make eye contact with anyone as I walk in the hallways, just keep my eyes on the floor or above people's heads.

But when I glanced up quickly to make sure I wasn't running into anyone, I caught a glimpse of Liam.

We've been having the tutoring sessions for a little over a month now, about twice every week. And every time I see him in school, he flashes me a smile but that's it.

He never talks to me otherwise, which I don't blame him for. I mean what is there to talk about. But I just wish it was different.

Liam

"Bro you going to the party tonight?" Zayn slaps his hand on my shoulder and shakes me.

I hesitate, it was another night that Amber and I were going to have a tutoring session. But I can cancel, she won't care.

"Who's party is it?" I swipe his hand of my shoulder.

"It's Ben's party, but I heard Tiffany's going to be there." He nudges my arm and winks.

"Oh yeah, great. I'll definitely be talking to her."
Zayn is always making sure to try and set people up. Matchmaker over there.

"Great I'll pick you up at 7 and we can go. We'll see you later." He waves me off and turns into a classroom.

Man I better tell Amber that we have to cancel tonight.

I walk into English and walk over to my seat. Right as I sit down, I glance up and see Liam walking towards me.

Even though I've been going to his house for a month, every time I see him, my heart still skips a beat.

"Hey Amber, I um," he pauses as he sits down in the seat next to me, "I have a problem."

My eyebrows furrow, "Yes?"

"I have to cancel tutoring for tonight. I'm going to a party."

I protest, "But we have a big test Monday, and you don't even know what we're doing."

I don't want him to cancel, I love getting to spend time with him as much as I can. And plus if he fails this test that will put us back even further.

"Yeah but we can just switch it to Saturday and I'll even take you out to an early dinner and we can study after it! How does that sound?" His mesmerizing chocolate eyes pleading.

"Are you paying?"

He laughs, "Yeah, I'm paying."

"Okay fine, pick me up at 4 at my house then tomorrow." I try and act cool but am really freaking out because he is taking me out to dinner. What? Liam Payne is taking me out to dinner.

He smiles and nods, "Alright see you then. Bye." He prances back over to a smiling Zayn and high fives him.

Zayn glances over at me and sends me a toothy smile. Zayn is absolutely beautiful too, but I've heard he can be...difficult to deal with. Liam actually has a whole beautiful foreign pack of friends.

He has Niall, who is an Irish cutie with blonde hair and piercing blue eyes. He's in my Sociology class and is so sweet to the other people that he talks to. He's never talked to me, but anyway.

Then there's Louis, who has a higher British accent, he sounds so nice when he talks. Like an angel coming down from the Heavens, but it can also be rough sounding like he's the head angel or something. Beautiful blue eyes, a comedian, a real heartthrob.

Harry. Harry Harry Harry. Harry Styles, the classic British beauty. He has that curly hair that you just want to grab and those green eyes that you want staring into your soul forever. And the killer smile, plus I hear he's really nice. But like before, I've never talked to him.

But Liam is the most special to me, even if there are the other beauties who are not tough in any means to look at.

Zayn picks me up on que at 7. And we arrive at the party and walk through the grinding drunken bodies in the house.

We walk over to Harry, Louis, and Niall into their heated discussion about whether the dress is white and gold or blue and black.

Annoyed with the conversation that seems to be lasting ages, I look around to see if I could find Tiffany. But instead I catch a glimpse of a group of girls staring at us and whispering to each other.

I nudge Niall who is calling Harry blind, "Niall shut up. Guys don't make it obvious, but there is a group of hot girls over there looking at us."

Disobeying everything I just said, all four of them turn and the girls start giggling. One blonde leads her posse over to us.

Harry leans over and whispers, "Okay be cool."

Once they approach us the blonde speaks first, "Hey, we just wanted to come see if you guys wanted to dance."

"But it's not a slow song?" Niall slightly laughs. We all turn to him with glares and Louis punches him in the side.

"Yeah he doesn't get it, but yeah that'd be cool." Zayn speaks for the group and takes the blondes hand and leads her away. The other girls disperse around us and choose their dancing partner.

I get stuck with a red head who's name is Tilly. She asks if we could get a drink first and I walk with her to the table and grab a plastic cup.

I think I got stuck with the worst one, she is not interesting whatsoever. She is acting really dumb, saying she didn't know lemonade was made with lemons, and while she was talking she spilled her drink all on my shoes.

Not being able to take even talking with this girl for over 5 minutes I tell her I have to go to the bathroom. I really need to find Tiffany, not waste my time.

As I'm wondering through the house I accidentally bump into someone and their drink goes everywhere. I turn around and see who I did not expect to see here.

"Amber?"
